Returns to Florida

John H. Richardson and family
left Wednesday for Orlando, Flor
ida, where they will make their
future home. Mr.. Richardson
established the Selmer Flour and
Feed Co. a few months ago and
enjoyed a splendid trade, but on
account of the delicate health of
his little daughter, Bernice, he
deemed it best to return to Flor
ida where the child's health had
improved greatly while residing
there last year.
John Richardson was popular
with our people, progressive in
everything and a hustling fellow
in his undertakings. While we
all regret his leaving, we earnest
ly hope he will prosper there, and
that sweet little Bernice may re-
cover her health and that this
splendid family can some day re-
turn to live in the county they
love so well.

RURAL WOMEN DOING
Big Things THROUGH
DEMONSTRATION CLUBS

That the general influence Of home
demonstration work, including both
adult and childrens' divisions can
scarcely be overestimated, was an out
standing feature of the program of the
homemakers' section of the Middle
Tennessee Farmers Institute which
met at Columbia recently. The value
of such work was clearly expressed in
a paper read before the meeting by
Mrs. Lewis A. Bryant of Marshall
county.
TN a broad sense she said, this
work Is redirecting our education, fill
ing our hearts with new hope and re-
vealing the possibilities of higher
and better country life in its various
social, educational and community ac-
tivities'
As q representative of the Marshall
County Home Demonstration Clubs
Mrs. Bryant submitted the following
report on the work done in the county
during the past year:
There are ten women'S home
demonstration clubs and eight boys
and girls clubs, four Of these women's
clubs having been organized in new
communities this year. These repre-
sent fourteen community centers.
Twenty regular monthly meetings are
being held with these clubs.
"A number Of new members have
been added to the boys and girls clubs
and report 415 more chickens raised
this year than last.
"The study of foods and the balanc-
ing of meals has been taken up in
many Of the women's clubs. Drying
demonstrations have been given and
the women have been much interested
In this method of food conservation.
"Steam-pressure canning has been
one of the chief features i'll the coun-
ty, and the number of Gamers owned
now Is just double the number of last
year, the number now being fourteen.
"The Marshall County Council of
Agriculture was organized March %,
1920 The directors ofwhich have
mapped out a program of work planned
TO fit the needs of this county in i'm.
proving farm, home and community
life. AZ number of women are men,
bers. 1t Is largely thru the various
demonstration clubs and Community
organizations that the Council plans to
carry out this program of work.
Improving Poultry.
eThe Marshall County Poultry Asso-
citation has been organized this year,
and with a few hut very enthusiastic
members, is trylns to place the poultry
industry on q better plane from
standpoint Of both quality and profit.
Last years county agricultural
fair was decided success. One com
munlty fair was held and one com.
munity exhibit was sent to the State
Fair This year two-day agricultural
fair and three community fairs are be-
ing planned.
Nearly all the clubs have held or
will hold either joint or community
picnics These have been sources OF
great pleasure as well as profit from
discourSes and demonstrations; aHS

have done much toward bringing about
cooperative and community spirit.
zone community club has recently
given play which furnished an eve-
ming of wholesome amusement for the
people of that and surrounding neigh
borhoods, and with the proceeds con-
trbutlon to the premium list of the
county fair has been made and a
bridge which has been needed at the
entrance to the school grounds will be
built.
"One home demonstration club has
been active in civic work and managed
SO cleverly that one hundred loads of
rubbish was hauled out of their town
with cost to the club of only $6S5.
"The general influence of this home
demonstration work including both
adult and children's divisions can
scarcely be overestimated. In broad
sense it is redirecting our education,
filling our hearts with a new hope and
revealing the possibilities of a higher
and better country life in its various
social, educational and community ac-
tiyities.
Farm home life is broadened and
spiritualiZed, and our women learn to
appreciate the dignity and difficulty
and real significance of what may have
seemed only tiresOme everyday task.
"We want to know more of the SCI
ence Of the great work to which we de-
vote our lives and are studying for a
better control and decrease of house
hold drudgery, SO that our time and
energy are so conserved that we can
participate In community affairs.
"Women are social beings and love
to congregate and work together, but
in the country where physical labor is
plentiful and recreation scarce, we are
so busy and 50 tired we feel we can't
get away from home for many social
functions or cultural opportunities, but
when we meet in our home demonstra-
tion clubs for the study and discussion
of many useful and interesting sub
jects, with our efficient agent, Miss
Worley, always present to advise, sug-
gest and encourage, am glad to report
our membership in Marshall county in
cIeasing and with possibly few ex-
ceptions, more enthusiastic, making
our meetings more interesting and
helpful"
The above accomplishments in this
county were largely made possible by
the splendid leadership of Miss Oma
Worley, home demonstration agent.
Such a report proves the value of the
home demonstration agent and lm-
presses the need of such a worker In
every county. The Division of Ex-
tension of the University Of Tennessee
places and directs these agents, This
organization is ready to place such an
agent in every county provided the
county wants one and will cooperate
In lheir employment.

WHEAT AND OATS
THE O TLOOK
some FACTORS OF SUCCESSFUL
SMALL GRAIN PRODUCTION
IN SOUTHERN STATES.
c. A. Whlttle, Southern Soil
improvement Comnittcc.>

Wheat Is too closely related to hui
man hunger ever to suffer a serious
slump in demand. At this time the
great wheat producing areas Of Eu.
rope give no signs OF getting imme-
diately back to normal production. So
Wet Russia, the greatest of all, offers
no signs Of growing wheat beyond-if
even equal to-the needs Of Russia.
Roumania, Austria, Hungary and the
Balkans are so depleted in men and
means, and so disturbed with war and
International politics, as to grow not
even enough small grain for their own
hungry and starving millions. Other
leading European countries are i'm.
porters and not exporters of grain.
The Americas will, therefore, be the
hope Of Europe's bread In fact, the
demand will continue to be very urg-
ent.
LAEOR-The labor requirements
per acre of wheat is less, of course,
than for cultivated crops. Where la
boris scarce wheat and oats are, there
fore, to be looked upon with favor.
But the labor problem involved in
producing wheat will not be complete
!y solved unless the farmer goes in for
large yields per acre. 1t requires no
more preparation, and seed, to grow
a big crop Of wheat than a small one.
Therefore, the intelligent farmer will
look we'll to his soil Treatment so that
maximum yields may be made at a
minimum cost per bushel. Farm labor
is too expensive to neglect this precaa-
ton.
PREPA9ATioN--Wheat and Oats
do best Gil upland soils. The SITTER,
f,rmer soils arc preferred But it does
not pay to SOW these crops on eroded,
thin soiled slopes. If the crop Is to
follow cotton, corn or other cultivated
crop, the sell may be disked. Deep
breaking is not necessary. After drill.
ing in the seed, the soil may be firmed
and smoothed with roller.
Observation-Disclosures fertil.
lzation will pay on wheat and oats.
Fertilizers will create a good root de-
velopment and thus protect the plant
against winter-killing; they will hasten
sown late on account of the Hessian
fly; 1t will increase stooling or tiller-
ing, and make plumper grain and full
or heads; and well.fed plants are also
more resistant to rust and other dis
eases.
An application of nitrogen in late
winter or early spring will prove very
helpful in giving the grain crops vig-
orous new start.
GOOD SEED--A variety of wheat
may be good, but the terminating
power of the seed poor. A farmer
should give more attention to his
wheat land oat seed. He should find
out their yielding record Different
strains of variety will have different
yielding ability Get only the best
1t pays.
Good seed includes clean seed. Make
them smut-free by dip into blue
stone. Use only the varieties that have
rust resistance power.
Farmers of the cotton belt would do
we'll to go into the growing OF cereals
on a broader scale. Small grains fit
in with we'll arranged crop rotation.
They provide necessities, and thereby
add to the independence Of the farm.
er and to his power to conserve the re-
turns from his money crops.

enjoy occasions of this kind.
This is the first number of the
