TEACHERS SALARY

If the public schools of Weakley
county are to open at the regular
opening time this fall the teachers
must be paid an increase in salary. 9
The above is a plain, blunt state.
ment minus embellishments, frills OF
high-sounding phrases to attract at
tention.
Our public school teachers occupy
a peculiar position in tie communi-
ty. No other set of men and women
come in closer contact VIII the boys
and girls who are to be the men ard
women Of tomorrow. The assb, a.
ton is daily. The influences of the
teachers on the pupils will make or
mar the future of the latter.
Oh, shucks! it's not necessary to
go into argument. The Extra salary
must be provided.

VOLUME 80

Today the Enterprise enters upon
the 18Th yt8r of its existence.
A generous public has made it pos
sible to publish here in little Dres-
den a paper as large as any weekly
in the state. The liberal patronage
accorded the Enterprise has demand
ed modern equipment, and there are
fewer weekly newspaper offices in
Tennessee better equipped for meet
ing everyday needs than the Enter
prise office. There is not one SO
we'll equipped in so small a town.
All this has been made possible
through liberal patronage, a gen.
erous disposition and a charitable
overlooking of blunders and errors,
for all which we feel most CRATE
full.

SAYS TINKERING IS
EXPENSIVE SPORT

"Guesswork puts a great many
storage batteries out Of business"
says Mr.. Otis Taylor of the local Will
lard Service Station. "The car own
err knows that his battery is not
working just right and feels that he
ought to do something. So he goes
ahead and often does the wrong
thing.
"The only safe course for car
owner to follow is to go to aman who
knows batteries and ask him to rene
Ely the trouble. 1t may not cost him
anything at all to do so, but even if
it does, it is cheaper in the long run,
If everybody would follow this
method instead of tinkering with the
batteries the service would be much
longer"

TEMPORARY IMPROVEMENTS
BEING MADE AT DEPOT

A crew of hands has been at work
at the Dresden shack which the rail
road company is pleased = ienomi-
nate depot, but in reality it is a
miserable shack. Cinders are being
placed on the north side and toilets
it is presumed, will be installed for
the convenience of the travelling pub

C. g. st, L. Railroad Co. was indict-
ed by the grand jury two weeks ago
for its failure to provide toilets at
the Dresden depot (shack.) What
ought to be done is to compel the
railroad company to build a decent
station here.

MORE ORN AND FOODSTUFF

1t is not too late to make prepa-
rAtions for corn, potatoes, strawber-
ries and change plans little to get in
more food crops and less cotton.
The wise farmer of today realizes
that the world has undergone a great
change in the system Of farming he
has practiced for years. A few
years back a census report showed
80 Der cent. of the population Of the
.IJnited States lived on the farm. To-
day bnly 80 per cent. Of the popula-
tionAcan be classod as farmers, and

the demand fer foodstuff will in

There are many different systems

CUT WORMS HERE
Invasion of Shawnee County
Fields Indicated Today.
Destructive Pest of 1919 Shows
Up Along the Kaw.
GETTING INTO CnRM EIEInH
GETTING into CORN FIELDS
Farmer Can Control Them
With Poison Mixture.
Face Heavy Losses Unless Ac-
ton Is Taken Now.

Shawnee county this year is again
facing danger in the form of the varie-
gated cut worm, which proved so de-
structive in 1919, according to o. F.
Blecha, county farm agent.
Last year this pest destroyed $780,
900 worth OF alfalfa in Shawnee coun-
ty alone. The first cutting of alfalfa is
now practically over and the worms
are invading the corn fields. On one
farm near Topeka fifteen acres of corn
were destroyed in a short time. Other
reports of destruction have been re-
ceived. In the Kaw valley especially
they are making their appearance in
large numbers.
The farmer who watches for their
appearance will find them easily con-
trolled, however, according to
Blecha. The worms begin at the edge
of field and work steadily forward.
If a poison preparation is spread be-
fore them it will destroy them and stop
the advance. The poison consists of
twenty pounds of bran and one pound
of Paris green. Three and one-half
gallons of water. two quarts of syrup
and the juice Of three lemons is then
mixed together and added to the bran
and Paris green. If this is scattered
on the infested area in the evening it
win get results, the farm agent says,
It kills the worms in one minute after
thye nave eaten it. In the face of al
falfa, it may be scattered across the
field in strips a rod apart.
Farmers will face heavy and sudden
losses unless they give this pest i'm
mediate attention, Blecha asserted.

HE'S HUNTING A RACE
Attorney General Has a
Speeding Ford That Is Craving
Contest.

Maurice Mcneil, assistant attorney
general, claims to have a car that will
outrun any car in Topeka. In fact,
he will race with any automobile large
or small at any place agreed upon by
both contestants, and sh!-he'n also
be willing to put up side bet of
sufficient size to make the race inter-
esting. The car is a Ford Sounds
like a joke, doesn't i), with sixteen
valves, a special Miller head for Ford
cars, and is geared three to one. 1t
is built on racing lines, has a grey
coat of paint, and the cowl is on the
same level with the radiator. No top,
nor tenders. just speed, according to
Maurice, and he's anxious to back his
statements concerning the little mar
vel.
The car was made at the Trefry
Motors company during the spare mo-
ments of the mechanics and the body
was designed at the RehkOpf Brothers
shop. The seat will accomm odate two
real thin men, but is built for only
one. There are no beautiful curves
about the car. everything about the
body is designed to make the least
wind resistance and it is set right
down next to the ground. Kansas ave-
nue. gave the little car and its smiling
driver many a glance of varied mean
ing, some admiration, some wonder,
others disgust, but just the same Maui
rice is satisfied and aching for a try
out on the fair grounds track with
anybody at any time.

PRAISE AMERICAN GOLF LOSER.
Robert Gardner's Defeat Greeted With
Praise by London NeMspapers

London, June 12.-Cyril Tolley's
victory over Robert Gardner of Chi
cago for the British amateur golf
championship yesterday is received
with natural qualification by London
newspa pers, but there is no extrava-
CANT note of triumph in their COM
ments Full credit is given Gardeners
skill and pluck, and occasional be-
trayals of nervousness at critical mo-
ments have been noted as impartially
in Tolley's case as in that of the
American.
Pride in the young Oxonian, which
is none the less because he won the
military cross as an officer in the tank
corps during the war, does not pre-
vent wholehearted admiration of
Gardner, who, the Times says, pos
sesses the temperament of which
champions are made"
1T would be difficult to praise him
too highly writes the Times expert.
"One had to wish him beaten but it
was hateful to have to do so. No
American golfer has made so many
friends here or made them SO quickly.
He is not only a very gallant and mod
est fighter, but fine, accomplished
player"

PROPERTY PROFITEERS FADE
Prices in Topeka Drop Following Sea-
son of Heavy Demands and Sales.

Due to the fact that property prof
iteers' have lowered their sights and
are shooting for more practical and
fair price marks, the cost of real es-
tate in Topeka has gone down in the
last few weeks, it became known to-
day.
The market is just as brisk as ever
but it has not demanded the price re-
Gently that it did a short time ago.
Owing to the struggle for homes in
Topeka since late winter. property
owners have been taking advantage of
the situation and have raised prices on
their homes to almost prohibitive
means. Homes that were built for
$4,000 have been bringing $4,000 in
sales.
The property profiteers" have sub
sided and today the figures are back
to normal-back to the level of pres
ent building and labor costs. 1t is not
believed that another drop will come
unless general conditions undergo a
radical change.
Incidentally Topekans who own
their homes have increased twenty
five to fifty per cent.
