startling and at the same time some
very valuable information. Eleven
of the nineteen districts have com
pleted the surveys. and five Others
have reported in part, while three
districts have not yet sent in cards
1t is hoped yet that complete can
vass will be made in the districts in
which the census has not been com.
pleted, that we may know just how
we stand in the livestock game
When the returns are all in, report
will be made by districts, ust to lie,
us all know how far behind or ahead
we are. So far, the returns show,
221 BULLS 1870 purebred, and 81
scrubs and grades; lao boars, with
100 purebred, and 40 scrubs and
grades; rs bucks, with 36 purebred

WASHER FOR
THE STREETS
CITY BUYS EQUIPMENT FOR
CLEANING STREETS AND
HAULING AWAY GARBAGE
MAIN STREET WILL BE CLEAN
ED EVERY DAY WHEN NEW
MACHINE is RECEIVED

The city commission has purchased
an up-to-date street washer, which
will take up all the dirt off the
streets. 1t is motor driven, and up
on its receipt Main street will be
washed every day and other paved
streets will be washed two or three
times a week. The equipment is
such that it can also be used as q
sprinkler on paved and unpaved
streets, so that Maryville will be rid
of much of the dust the coming sum-
mer.
In addition to being a street wash
er. an equipment has been bought,
which can be used as truck for
hauling away garbage and hauling
rocks for street repair work. 1t
takes only about five minutes to dis
connect the washer from the motor
and hook it on the truck. The tow.
expects to require that citizens install
garbage cans on their premises so
garbage can be removed regularly by
the town garbage truck.
This is another progressive step on
the part of the town, and one to
which every citizen will accord give
approval.

CONNECT TO
SEWER LINE
MAYOR YOUNG STATES THAT
ORDINANCE WILL BE ENFoRC-
ED IN EVERY INSTANCE
ALL HOUSES WITHIN 200 FEET
OF SEWER MUST MAKE CON-
NEcTION THERETO

Mayor Young states that the city
commission is going to enforce the
ordinance requiring that all houses in
town that are within 200 feet of a
sewer line must make connection
thereto. Persons who are within the
required distance and have not as yet
connected are advised that they
might as well begin connecting now,
as the law will be enforced. Hard
luck stories and excuses won't be ac-
cepted any longer, state officials, as
it is necessary for the health and pro-
lection of the people that this be
done.
If persons who are not acquainted
with some of the unsanitary condi-
tions within block of Main street
and in any of the residence sections
where there are sewer lines, could see
the conditions as they are, it would
not take long to create sentiment of
fight the conditions which are a
danger to the health and life of every
citizen, But the commission is going
to take steps to make conditions
more sanitary and none will be ex-
cepted.
Mayor Young stated further that
the ordinance prohibiting splitting on
the streets is to be enforced. The
town pays a policeman to look after
the physical protection of her citi-
zens, and this is one of the ways her
citizens can be protected, and the
mayor states that the policeman will
be, if not already, advised to enforce
the law, arrest violators and take
them up for fine before the city
judge. This is law that has too
long been ignored, and if every
interested citizen will make a COM
plaintg this nuisance will soon be eli

! lopment necessary for our best inter.
est.
Our County Health Nurse, Miss
Grace Hanson, with set of slides on
Rural Sanitary conditions found in
our country and the methods of ima
proving them, and the bringing about
of better health conditions, was
faithful on the job all of the week,
and did great work.
From the Division of Extension,
Mr.. Brehm, Market Specialist, Mr..
Doughty, District Agent for the men
of East Tennessee, and Mr.. McAmis
on Agronomy Specialist were of great
aid and assistance in our work. The
women were fortunate in having Miss
Ambrose, Director of the Women's
Work of the State for one day, and
Miss Whittle, District Agent for the
women of East Tennessee for two
days.
1t was really great week, and
had weather conditions been favor
able, these Short Courses would have
reached many more of the farm
homes than they did. The meetings
are not all over. Other communi-
ties are calling for them, and we are
expecting during the remainder of
the winter and through the spring if
possible to touch every community of
Blount county with School, Santa
tion, and Agricultural improvement
work. We need more men and wo-
men in the county who will go out
and help in this work-more rural
leaders. Many are just as loyal, just
as public spirited possibly as Mr..
Hitch and Mr.. Duncan. Many have
not caught the vision of our great
need for such work, and what might
be done if they but put forth the eff
fort. Some lack confidence in their
own power and ability. The great
est need of the county today is real
rural leaders-men and women who
have vision of what is needed to be
done and desire and will to help
crystalize public sentiment in their
communities to get the things done.
The leaders are here in the county,
and our greatest problem is in finding
them, or helping them to find them
selves and develop their powers of
leadership. That is one of the big
jobs for the County Council of Agri-
culture, and with organization
functioning properly the work will be
done.

1t is hoped that the committees
which have not reported to date, will
finish up their work in this line just
as soon as possible and turn in the
cards to the Live Stock Committee Of
the Council of Agriculture. If any
of the committeeman have not secur-
ed the cards which were sent for this
work, they should notify the County
Agent and ne will see that cards are
supplied. When the results ar.
published, look at your district and
see if it is not possible to pull your
district up in the purebred sire line
during the coming year. This is a
work which takes tact and spirit of
good will and fellowship. We can
not drive out the scrubs by law or
force, and we do not feel that this is
necessary or best at present, but we
can teach the people who have the
scrubs that it is to their advantage to
keep good sire in the place of the
scrub. 1t is to the advantage of the
owner as well as to the community,
and even more so. 1t is all matter
of being shown, and it is our business
as farmers to help show the advant-
age Of pure bred sires over scrubs
and grades.

available just as soon as the church
needs it, loan for the amount re-

SHORT COURSE TO
BE FOLLOWED UP

The series of Short Courses put on
by the Blount County Council of
Agriculture were a decided success.
The weather was very unfavorable
for this work, and at times it was al
most impossible for the people to get
to the place of meetings on account
of bad roads and rain yet the inter
est has been good throughout. The
meetings at Eusebia had to be called
off Wednesday Oh account of rain,
but they were held at Townsend,
Williamson, Carpenter, and Friends
vile. 1t is safe to place the number
of farmers and farm homes touched
by these Short Courses at 800 to 400.
When we see in communities of
Blount County farmers, their wives
and children trudge through the mud
and inlcement weather, bring their
dinners and stay all day and into the
night to discuss the hear discussed
problems pertaining to the advance
ment of their communities, it shows
that Blount County is getting ready
to do something in dead earnest to
make the county what it should be.
more on another gal.
The programs were devised to
touch as many phases of the life of
the communities as it was possible to
cover in the day and evening meet
ings. So, in addition to the discus
sion of the programs touching the
improvement of the soil, the use of
lime and legumes, and better pastures
and in addition to urging better live
stock and improved methods of farm
and home management, the question
of better schools and improved sani-
tary conditions looking toward the
development of children in a whole
some and healthy condition were
taken up and given due consideration.
The people of the county do not
fully realize what is being attempted
in the way of the rural development
of Blount county. Through our
Council of Agriculture there is be-
ing developed a spirit of unity of
feeling and effort never known be-
fore in the history of Blount county.
When public spirited men like Mr..
John Hitch and Mr.. H. R. Duncan are
willing to lay aside their business for
days and go out in the county to aid
in the work of giving encouragement
and strength in the movement for
bettering our rural life, it is an indi-
cation that something is going to
come to pass for our good. We have
a band of about fifty men and wo-
men in the county now who have
pledged themselves to go into this
great work. Mr.. Hitch and Mr.. Dun
can were with US for the entire week,
not both at the same time, but one or
the other has been to all of the meet
ings. Wherever they have gone they
have given new vision to the men
and women of the possibilities in
Blount County.
Superintendent and Mrs. Mise,
have both been on hand talking not
only for better schools and longer
terms, but have pointed out also the
close connection between education
and the symmetrical rounded deve-
