U. T. Boys Win Honors at National
Dairy Show

The dairy cattle judging team
which represented the University of
Tennessee at the National Dairy
Show held at Chicago last week won
seventh place in a competition with
Judging teams from 81 other agri-
cultural schools. Prof. C. E. Wiley,
head of the dairying department of
the university was coach. This is
considered a most creditable showing
in view of the fact that this is the
first time the University of Tennes-
see has entered team in this con-
test. The team was composed of G.
5. Kennedy of Knoxville; G. G. Sum-
mers, of Franklin; A. C. Meyers of
Greeneville, and H. r. Love of Bells,
alternate.
In the contest upon judging all
kinds of dairy breeds, Kennedy was
high team on judging Jerseys; Sum-
mers high team man on judging
Guernseys, and Meyers high team
man on judging Holstein and Ayr
shire cattle.

BY M. Jacob v. M. D., Stat,
Veterinarian

Practically every winter ernor-
nous losses occur among cattle
throughout the Southern States from
la disease commonly spoken of as
"Black Ccours," affecting the young
er animals from four to eighteen
months old. While the disease is
primarily due to internal parasites,
the secondary cause, that of improper
feeding, has an important bearing on
its occurrence. In almost every in
stance where we have had an oppor-
tunity to investigate this disease, it
was found that the effected cattle
were taken off pacture in the fall
and were being "roughed" through
the winter on ration that had little
or no nutritive value, consisting as
rule Of either poor hay, straw,
corn stalks or other non-nutritious
substances.
1t has been demonstrated beyond
a doubt that you cannot grow cattle
successfully by such methods of win
ter feeding. In many instances we
have found such methods of feeding
further aggravated by insufficient
shelter, all of which leads to a de-
pleted system, and the animal is then
unable to withstand the effect of
heavy infestation. This warning is
therefore given to the farmers of the
state, urging a better system of feed
ing and care for young cattle. In adj
dition to roughness, they should re-
ceive a liberal amount of grain,
enough at least to maintain the ami
Imal in thrifty, growing condition.
This will do more toward preventing
this trouble than anything else that
can be done.
This warning should be needed
now and not put off until after the
cattle show physical indications of
the disease. Preventative treatment
by the way of good feeding and care
will give results, but if you expect to
rely on curative measures after the
animal actually becomes sick, you
will be sadly disappointed. The slo-
gan of our farmers should be:
Begin feeding young cattle now,

Proper Care of Farm Machinery il
Important

How many farmers would leave
$25, $50, and even 500 in bills out
in the open during an entire winter?
Sound absurd, but scores of such
bills in their equivalent of farms i'm
plements are left in the shelter of
the broad skies all the year. Few
farmers who follow this practice to
so with realization of the great
loss they are sustaining on the money
invested, say specialists Of the Divi-
sion of Extension.
A hundred-d dollar machine left out
of shelter over winter, means loss
of from five to fifteen dollars. At
this rate it is suite evident that a
machinery shed would be paid for
in two or three years even at present
building costs.
A suitable shelter having been pro-
vided, it is now essential to store
the implements properly. If the
shed has dirt floor, keep the ma
chinery from resting directly on the
ground. Place a board at least I'M
der all supporting parts, in order to
prevent rust, thoroughly cover every
polished surface such as plow shares,
mold boards, cultivator shovels, now
er knives and the like with common

Club Youngsters Win Prizes in Oper
Shsw Against Old Timers

One of the features of the many
fairs this season and one that demon
strates the value of club work as
carried on by the county agricultural
and home demonstration agents in
many countries OF Tennessee is the
fact that club members in COMPETE
ton with old time breeders and pro-
fessienal show men won many of the
valuable prizes.
At the East Tennessee Division
Fair recently Clifford Nichols, a
member of the Knox County Dairy
Club won second in the Junior Bull
Calf class over entries from some OF
the best herds in East Tennessee
This calf was bred by the Island
Home Farm, but was fed, managed
and prepared for show by young
Nichols during the past season. 9th
err instances which show what boys
and girls can do are many. Here
are few: Fred Cox won third II
the senior dairy heifer calf class anc
Glenmore Garrett stood fifth in ar
open ring of fifteen entries. In the
senior bull calf class, Thent Hines
stood third.
Guy Johnson who won the cham
pionship pig club gold medal with hi
Berkshire sow, won second in thu
open ring against entries from tive
herds that took practically all O.
championships at the big fair thi
year. Many other pig club member
who entered their pigs nthe opel
classes were successful against large
entries from the herds of old breed
ers.

with ordinary machine oil. Every
wheel hub and bearing, after care

hard grease and replaced. Drills in
which lime or fertilizer are used
must be carefully cleaned, kerosene

exposed to the fertilizer. Binder
canvasses should be hung up by wire

iversity of Tennessee bids fair to set
new high mark of growth before
the session is over. For the past ten
years the curve of attendance has
risen steadily at from sixty to sew
enty per year. A slight dip was
caused by the war, when attendance
decreased as a result of withdrawal
of men eligible for military service,
but in the year just closed the in
creased attendance was sufficient to
counterfeit that decrease with net
increase sufficient to average nine
ty-five per year for the three year
period, 1917,1920.
Last year the university was taxed
to its full capacity to accommodate
the student body on the chill" The
ensuing year brings weightly prob
lens to the officials to discover
means for taking care of those that

this year is already above that of
the steady healthy growth to which
the University Of Tennessee has
been accustomed.
None too soon has the building
program for the University beer

for a short time when completed, but
they cannot continue to accommodate

n. delighted . large audience with
a lecture on the first transatlantic
trip ever made by heavier-than-
air machine, the NC-4, at the regu.
lar ladies' night Of the University Club
last night.
Commander Richardson was intro.
duced by DR.. 3. 9. Adams and after
giving details Of the trials Of the
three seaplanes, NC-1. NC-3 and NC-4.
before starting on their perilous
journey from Trepassey, New Found
land. having flown to that place from
scribed the perils hardshibs and suf-
ferings that he and the other m em I.
bers Of the crew OF the NC-3, Of
which he was one. had undergone
when they were compelled to land on
the ocean. fifteen hours after start
ing.
He said that while there were de-
stroyers stationed every fifty miles
for the entire journey. 1t was seldom
that they were able to see them, and
aside from the searchlights and star
might as we'll not have been there.
The NC-3 lost her course on passin z
destroyer ID, and after going about
forty miles to the southwest decided
to take d chance on landing on the
ocean.
For two days and nights the crew
suffered. Buffeted about on seas
mountain high. the airmen stuck to
their plane which was gradually be-
ing demolished by the angry waves,
and after assistance came from Horta
they pulled into port under their own
power.
Commander Richardson's story Of the
bravery of the No as crew when all
hope seemed gone thrilled the audience,
and when pictures were thrown on the
screen showing the much battered craft,
with her human ballast dashed to the
crippled wing tip float. pulling into port.
the applause that followed was spon-
taneous.
Commander Richardson paid high
tribute to Commanders Read Of the

the NC-3 was compelled to- alight on
the water. and Towers OF his own plane,
who was command of the fleet
