August is the month to prepare the

in Tennessee without pasture. Far
mers are coming to realize this more
and more. For long-lived pastures,
specialists of the Division of Exten-
sion recommend orchard grass, clover
and alfalfa. For winter pasture sow
crimson clover and red clovers mixed.

practiced under the very best of
conditions only. This method should
never be depended on entirely.

who are opposing him will not vae

COLUMBIA TEAM
TO Be P|LOTED
BY JOSHUA CODY
FOOTBALL STAR ASSUMES MAN.
AGEMENT OF LOCAL OUTFIT
TODAY IN ELkToN.
COMPLETE RE ORGANIZATION
RED Smith, Star Receiver, Will Be
Seen in Action Here When Team
Meets Fast WaverIy Outfit Early
Next Week.

A complete reorganization of Co
lumbia's baseball team under the d.
rection of Col. John Cody, of football
fame, is now the plan of the board of
directors OF the association, follow
ing the resignation of Manager Max
Hardison. Col. Joshua has been Sc.
cured to pilot the Columbia aggrega-
tion until September |, when the ath
lete leaves to direct the fortunes of
college football outfit.
One of the first steps to be taken by
Pilot Cody will be the placing of
Red" Smith at the receiving end of
the battery. Red, who is one of the
best catchers who ever donned a mitt
in Columbia, has already reported for
duty, and accompanied the team to
Elkton today as did Pilot Cody, who
will look over" the work of the team
during the next three days, returning
to Columbia on Saturday night.
For next week three games have
been scheduled with Columbia's re or
ganized team, the fast WaVkrly team
coming for games here Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday. Waverly has
been playing great ball this season,
and has just succeeded in downing
the championship Lawrenceburg team.
Pilot Cody believes that within the
next few days, by making few chang
es, and doing little shifting in the
line up he can turn out splendid and
winning ball team, which will give the
fans their moneys worth each time
they are seen in action here.

SPLENDID YEAR
IS ENDED FOR
W0MEN'S CLUBS
FEDERATION HAS ACHIEVED
SOME REMARKABLE RESULTS
PAST TWELVE MONTHS.
WORKING NOW FOR A BUILDING
Sizeable Sum Already Realized and
Toward This Goal Activities of the
Federation Will Be Directed Dur
ing the Coming Period.

The closing meeting of the Federal.

S25l.S0 1.-TWO hundred fifty-one dollars
and eighty cents). OF this special
fund Mrs. G. A. Parker, Jr, was made
permanent treasurer The president
newt gave an outline of the work done
a charming play at the beginning of
the season which was most success
full both dramatically and financially.
In the early spring cleanup cam
paign was held and with the help of
the Boy Scouts and the assistance of
the city administration the campaign
has helped to beautify our town and
make it more healthful The fedora
tion is also helping to instruct the
women of Columbia to make better
citizens of them. Mrs. Guilford Dud-
ley of Nashville, gave a delightful
and instructive talk on Better Citi-
zenship" to a large audience the last
of May and the second lecture on this
subject will be given next Tuesday
morning at. ten o'clock in the audito'
ium of the Elks Club. An invitation
is extended to all women of Colum-
ba whether club members or not.
The Federation has also gone on re-
cord as endorsing the Sunday closing
law---having a woman on the board
of education, and also having no Sun
day baseball games in Columbia.
The big work OF the Federation is
the building of Woman's Club build
ing in Columbia and toward this end
a neat sum has already been realized
and what Is greater, an interest and
enthusiasm has been created which
will mean much in the future.
Federation work is comparatively
new in Columbia and only the untirng
efforts and able mind of the president
Mrs. Sharp, has made possible the
wonderful advance made this year.
And what has been done this year
makes the future more bright ard a
club house certainty. However, this
would not have been done had not the
Federation been built on the ilrm
foundation OF the undaunted spirit and
ceaseless work of the former presi-
dents and pioneers.
The president thanked each man.
Der and the clubs they represented for
their cooperation and support.
At the close of the business m Get
ing refreshments were served and the
delightful hospitality of charming
hostess was enjoyed by all.

600. She seeks to have him restrain
ed from gaining possession Of any of
this property except under court or

ry In the county and state and where
there are local contests will be after
reports of the victors. On next Thurs
day will occur the battle of ballots.
In the time intervening there are real
ly five days, excluding Sundays, for
the workers to do their best.
Interest is largely centered in the
contest for governor, with the fight
for representatives coming next. 1t is
generally recognized that the race for
senator in this district will be set
tied at the November election, be,
cause Judge Wigs, of Perry county,
standing upon the endorsement of
Perry and Lewis counties, insists that
democracy, justice and right gives the
senator to his county. Many in this
county who recognize Perry's claim
will not vote Thursday in the race for
senator.
Both sides profess confidence in the
result of the gubernatorial election in
this county. The Roberts managers
seem to be absolutely sanguine of vic
tory by very comfortable margin,
some even estimating the governors
majority at as much as 500 votes. The
Crabtree managers are not giving any
figures but profess to be pleased with
the situation.
A disinterested and unprejudiced OBJ
server sizes up the situation this way.
The first district will divide with prob
ably two precincts in each column. In
the second district, due to the power
ful influences behind Roberts and the
popularity of his supporters, the gov
ernOr will have the best of the deal.
In the third Crabtree is sure of one
precinct with the other three probably
inclined to Roberts The fourth dis
trict has leaning to Crabtree. In
the fifth Culleoka will probably land

sixth district seems to promise good
results for the governor Unless all
signs fail the governor should carr,
the seventh district The eighth Ii
considered doubtful. In the nintf
wise political guys give the governor
the big box and his opponent the
small box. The tenth is counted in
the Crabtree column. 1t is probable
that the larger precincts carried by
| Roberts will give him such majorities
as to overcome his opponents lead.
These are, of course, all guesses, but
they are based upon the observation
made by impartial dependable men.
1t is safe to say that nothing will be
| left undone by either the candidates
or their managers to line the voters
up between now and the close of the

BELT WEARING
CONDEMNED
MEDICAL AUTHORITY OF NOTE
ATTRIBUTES MANY AILMENTS
OF MEN TO LATE YEAR HABIT

Cincinnati, Ohio, June 15.-That the
universal American habit of suspend
ing the trousers by means of a belt
is doing much damage was asserted
by DR.. Charles A l.. Reed, of Gin
cinnati, former president OF the
American Medical Association, at the
University commencement here to-
day
1.-The number of men and young
men, too, who are either semi-invalids
or real invalids as a result OF dis
turbances of the stomach and intes-
tines is already alarming and every
physician knows that such cases are
rapidly increasing." asserted DR..
Reed. Not many years ago." he con-
tinued 1.-THE same fact applied to
women and was justly attributed to
the construction Of the waist by the
corset as then worn. But the attire
'of women in all particulars. especially
in this particular. is now much more
|hygienic than that Of men.
The unconstricted waist today i'm
parts to women not only a grace and
suppleness but a degree OF health
suppleness but a degree of health
that may well be the envy of the So
called sterner sex. The trouble Is
with the tightly worn belt. The nat
ural result of squeezing the abdomen
at waist line is to force the stomach,
intestines, liver and other organs
downward out of place. When this is
done indigestion, constipation and bill
iousness result. In their train come
headache, nervousness, mental de-
preston and general inefficiency. In
over one thousand consecutive cases
of epilepsy careful x-ray examinations
has showed the existence of such dis
placements. 1t is not asserted that all
belt wearers have these troubles, or
than the habit tends both to cause
them when they do not exist and to
aggravate them when they already
exist"
Great disasters, such as a world
war, will bring arrangement under
any system imaginable. Natural
disasters-earthquak fires, tidal
waves, crop failures and the like
striking at great and rich centers Of
population. may bring unexpected
business and financial shocks. But
