(From Wednesdays Daily Herald.)
Interest in the canning industry in
Maury and Marshall counties will re-
ceive tremendous boost today as the
result of the intercounty demonstra'
ton and all day picnic being held at
Bryants Station, under the direction
of Mrs. Kate M. Grady, demonstration
agent of Maury, and Miss Oma Wor-
ley, MarshalPs agent. Hundreds OF
members of canning clubs of these
two counties were present to witness
the demonstration, and to discuss
community problems. The spirit OF
the old fashioned log rolling was
there, the same spirit which bound to-
gether the hardy pioneers of Colonial
days. Tie spirit of service. Mem
bers of the girls canning clubs of both
Marshall and Maury county have been
taught that there is before them an
enormous, task-that of providing
food for winter Cheerfully they have
accepted this task, and have gone
about the work determined to sue

apples, peaches, blackberries and 9TH
er fruits and vegetables. Little SUI
gar is needed for canning, and from
present indications more food will be
saved for winter in Maury county this
year than ever before.
With canned food in the cellar and
with corn in the granary and meat
in the smokehouse, the farmer may
laugh at the high cost of living-and
with the people of town saving every
thing possible, there is not chance
for the high cost of living to remain
on his present high perch-because
the demand would not equal the sup

that they owe duty to the state and

MIGHTY men WHO
MADE HISTORY OF
ANCIENT CHURCH
FOUNDERS Ard PASTORS OF OLD
HOPEWELL WHICH is NEARING
THE CENTURY MARK.
CELEBRATION ON AUGUST IS
Some Of the Descendants Of Families
That Organized Congregation Are
Still Numbered Among the Men,
bership--Thlrd House of Worship.

Hopewell congregation will observe
the Tooth anniversary of its organiza-
ton as a church of the Associated
Reform Presbyterian on Wednesday
August Is. No church in the South
ern section of the county has welded
greater influence than Hopewell
While it's membership is not large
it exerts power that is out of pro-
portion to it's congregations size.
This church was organized by
hardy pioneers, descendants largely
of Scotch and Ulster Irish Presbyter
ian covenanters, in the fall OF 1920.
1t was organized by DR.. Isaac Grier,
with Saml. Scott, M. Baldridge,
James Leech and Robert Matthews
as ruling elders. Members of the
Mathews family are still prominent in
the councils of the church.
The church was organized with
thirty,six members and was supplied
for time by Rev. Saml Brown. The
first regular pastor, Rev. r. M. Gallo
way, was installed in 1924. He died
in October 1910 and the church was
vacant for four years when Rev. j..
X. Boyce was installed in 1874. He
served until l84S. The pastorate was
again vacant, this time for six years.
Rev. ]. H. Bryson, brother of FL.
Knox Bryson, was called to the past
crate in 1854 and > served faithfully
until 1896. There was an interim of
year, when In 1867 Rev. j. H.
PEBBLES was installed as pastor He
served the church for twenty-five
years as its regular pastor, closing
his labors there in 1889, being long
Ell in service than any pastor in the
history of the church. There was an
other vacancy and in 1893 Rev. W. B.
Logan was called. He served one
year. From 1895 to S99 RevsJ. M
White was pastor. For the nextsnine
years the church was again without
regular pastor, being supplied at
intervals.
In 1908 Rev. William C. Kerr was
called to the passionate. and he sery-
ed until May 1911, being succeeded
by DR.. C. B. Belts who resigned last
October after most successful past
crate Of eight years. In January of
this year Rev. w. T. Simpson came
to serve the church as pastor.
The present beautiful house is the
third that has been erected by the
congregation. The first was built in
1920 and was very modest structure
of logs. In 1889 the second house
also of logs, but larger and more
ornate structure, was dedicated. The
congregation grew in numbers and
power and wealth until in 1856 the
edifice that stands now, a fine sample
of ante bellum day style of architec.
ture, was erected. 1t is one of the
best constructed buildings in the
county.

terms on the board and has made a
fine record. He was elected in 1916

public schools and has been faithful
in his attendance upon the board. The

COUNTY COUNCIL
may CONSIDER
ROAD PROGRAM
QUESTION OF BETTER HIGH.
WAYS LIKELY TO- ENGAGE SEES
SION or DIRECTORS SAT.
FULL ATTENDANCE URGEl
viii Be First Session In Nearly Two
Months and All OF the TWenty-One
Members Shrould Make an Effort to
Be Present, Says President Porter.

Directors of the county council of
agriculture will meet on next Satur
day at 80 O'Clock at the court house
for the regular June meeting. This
will be the first meeting that the
council has had since early in May
1t had been intended to meet at En-
terprise on June 20, and quorum of
the members did attend the commu
nifty rally there, but the days pro
gram was SO full that there was no
opportunity to hold formal session
1t had been hoped that the new
quarters in the basement of the court
house would be ready for Saturdays
meeting, but the work cannot be COM
pleted for a couple of weeks yet and
the sessions vial be in the circuit
court room. :t Ia
1t is probable that at the meeting
of the directors on Saturday the ques-
ton of road program for Maury
county will be taken up for consider
alton The county court meets again
on the second Monday in July and it
is realized that since the action of
the court at the special session the
road program here is up in the air"
The agricultural interests are vital
ly concerned about the improvement
of the highways and it is likely that
any program that would be cordially
supported by the council would make
convincing appeal to the majority
Of the county court.
Another matter for consideration
Saturday will be the question OF the
state organization. 1t is already as
sured that Tennessee will within
short time have a sufficient number
of county councils to organize state
council and this will doubtless be
done this fall, The state council will
then become directly affiliated with
the national farm bureau Delegated
will be appointed by the county coun-
Gil to the state council.
President Porter urges every mem
Der of the board of directors. and
there are twenty tne: of them to at.
tend the council meeting Saturday.

HIGHER PRICES FOR :, : ), !,
pOnKEnS 1FORECASTEOI |
UNION STOCK YARDS AT NASH
LILLE DECLARES THAT CONDI-
TONS ARE IMPROVING.

Farmers are advised by experts to
keep up their droves of good brood
sows in review of the market issued
by the Nashville Union Stock Yards.
The statement follows:
I'VE believe the low price mark on
hogs for the year has been reached;
the market today is in much strong
er position than it has been for some
time; there is a very active demand
on this market for good hogs every
day, in fact our buyers could use more
than twice Us many hogs as are COM
ing every day. There is a big i'm
provement in the export situation on
packing house products, and we have
every reason to believe that further
improvement in the export rade will
be shown in the near future.
1T Is the concensus of opinion of
the leading authorizes on the hog
trade that we are going to see consid-
erdply nisner prices on hogs. Pigs
that are put on feed now, will undoubt-
eddy come to market at time when
prices are much higher than at the
present. time. We are, therefore of the
opinion that you can afford to feed
hogs for the next several months
profitably.
I'VE think it good business for you
to keep up your drove of brood sows,
and keep them producing pigs to the
maximum of their capacity. A good
brood SOW is big money maker for
the farmer, and it is poor policy to
send these good brood sows to market
until their usefulness as pig produc-
ers has reached an end"

That there is going to be an in
creasing demand for farm tractors in
Maury county is the opinion express
ed by Prof E. . A. Mclean, county
agent, who is more IA intimately, in
touch with the farmers of the county
than any one in 1t. Prof. Mclean trav-
els about among the farmers every
day, meets them on their fields and
pastures, dimes with them in their
homes and confers with them in the

tractors than have ever known in
