of bread. That was something to be
aroused about. But lowering The
price Of wheat, and, hence, lowering
the price of bread, is something else
again. If a searching investiga-
ton" is thought desirable by the pres.
ident there should be no objection
from any quarter.
For three years during and after
the war the price of wheat was held
up by presidential proclamation to
and above a guaranteed minimum of
1920 a bushel. The government and
the people needed the largest posi-
Bile supply Of the bread cereal and
paid farmers high prices to grow it.
And the guaranteed prices lasted as
long as the government promised.
Now the war is over; there is less
demand for American wheat abroad
and there is big rop in the United

zone community club has recently
given play which furnished an eve
ming of wholesome amusement for the
people OF that and surrounding neigh
borhO0ds, and with the proceeds con-
tribution to the premium list OF the
county fair has been made and
bridge which has been needed at the

Zone 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 $685..
"The general influence OF this home
demonstration work including both
adult and children's divisions can
scarcely be overestimated. In broad
sense 1t Is redirecting our education,
filling our hearts with new hope and
revealing the possibilities of a higher
and better country life in its various
social, educational and community ac-
tivities.
Farm home life is broadened and
spirltualized, and our women learn to
appreciate the dignity and difficulty
and real significance of what may have
seemed only tiresome everyday task.

to c0ngregate and work together, but
in the country where physical labor is
plentiful and recreation scarce, we are
50 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-

Of many useful and interesting sub

Worley, always present to advise, sug-
gest and encourage, am glad to report
our membership in Marshall county in

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 report proves the value of the
home demonstration agent and i'm
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 their employment.

RURAL WOMEN DOING
BIG THINGS THROUGH
DEMONSTRATION CLUBS

That the general influence Of home
demonstration work, including both
adult and chidrens' 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
paper read before the meeting by
Mrs. Lewis A. Bryant Of Marshall
county.
IN 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 It's various
social, educational and community ac-
tlvities"
AS 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 wOmens
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 41j 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 in the cOun-
ty, and the number of Gamers owned
now is just double the number Of last
year, the number now being fourteen.

LIVE FARM NOTES

Kill the scrub sire. He has had his

Whether the moon has any effect on
farming, has nothing to do with the
fact that potatoes should be dug on a
clear day when the soil is fairly dry.
Better select your seed corn in the

see just what kind of stalk the ear
grew on and you will be sure to have
a better crop next season.

|N,M01OR TOURING
FOR 1920 SEASON
Inquiries Coming Here Indi-
cate Heavy Road Travel
This Summer.

Every indication points to the fact
that the 1920 season will see tre-
mendous boom in motor car touring
throughout the entire country. There
will be no restrictions in the use of
motor cars this year. The wartime
demands. which required the con-
servation of gasoline. oil. tires. etc,
are over with. and patriotic citizens
who gladly deprived themselves OF
many delightful motor trips during
the critical periods are already plan
ming extended tours. which will carry
them from coast to coast, or off to
or in cooling mountain lands. Judg-
ing from the demand for route IN
formation during the season Just
passed. and according to the volume
of inquiries already coming to A. A a.
headquarters in Washington. the
day and night supplying data on road
conditions. hotels, garages and other
subjects pertaining to motor travel,
saws A. G. Seller. touring manager.
The staggering production figures
of more than 100000 cars in 1919, and
the estimate of experts of 100000
cars for 1920. not considering the
thousands of used cars in operation,
are bound to create a continuous pro-
cession of motor travellers. This con-
dition will create an even greater
demand for road improvement on all
main routes than was accomplished
in any year before. Nearly billion
dollars are already available for new
road work through funds from ma
tional, state and county sources.
