JOHN l.. SULLIVAN CANDI-
DATE FOR REELECTION.

County Register John L. Sullivan
is a candidate for reelection, subject
to the Republican primary, which will
be held this fall to nominate candi-
dates for the office to be filled at the
August, 1922, election.
Mr.. Sullivan is almost too we'll
known to need word from this pa
per or any other source, but we are
glad to testify that he is thorough
gentleman, an excellent citizen and
public official who never has (and
we believe never will) betray a pub
lie or private trust.
Mr.. Sullivan is filling the office to
the satisfaction of all who expect
and desire courteous treatment and
prompt service and, we dare say,
there is not man in the county who
doubts that he will continue to do so,
in the event he is favored with re-
nomination and reelection
The only argument that can be
used against Mr. Sullivan is that of
long enough" and that depends upon
the individual citizen regarding pub
lie office as public trust or a public
football.

DEMPSEY KNOCKS OUT CAR
PENTIER IN FOURTH ROUND.

In the prize fight at Jersey City,
last Saturday, Jack Dempsey, the
world champion knocked out in the
fourth round Georges Carpetier, (the
French pugulist) 1t is said to be the
most thrilling fight for the champion
ship in modern times. Dempsey won,
as Americans expected he would, but
it is said in one report that he was
forced to the limit of his skill, only
his superior strength and stamia de-
ciding the outcome of the fight, that
there were times when he needed ev-
cry ounce of his strngth. The French
man is said to have made good every
claim made for him-that he is
master fighter, master mind in
body that obeys every impulse in
stantly and with amazing speed and
force. All of which adds to the VIC
tory won by the American. The be-
lief is expressed that Carpenter can
beat any other man in America except
Dempsey.
The amount of money involved in
the great fight runs to over a million
dollars, there being 90-odd thousand
admissions to witness the bout.
Dempsey gets 100000, Carpen-
tier 100000, the promoter, perhaps,
a half million and the government
great slice in income tax and war tax
admissions.
Prize fitting is brutal practice
which legislators condemn collective
ly, but pay to witness personally.

FARMS OF
HENDERSON COUNTY.

County Agent H. A. Powers has
had with MIN this week Prof Chas.
A. Keffer, Director of the Division Of
Extension of the University Of Ten
nessee, and Prof. j. C. McAmis, spec
ialist in Agronomy (soils and crops)
who have been inspecting those Hen
derson county farms, the owners Of
which have already put on a rotation
and diversification or have signified
their intention to do so. The most
notable of these farms is that of j..
Finley Pope, located between Cruel
fer and Huron, which work is benig
done under the direction Of County
Agent III. eA.4Pomers,aas suggested by
The Division Of Extension, subject to
varying soils and general conditions.
The wish has been made that each
county might have model farm, but
Agent Powers, instead Of working to
obtain one model farm, conducted at
considerable expense to the county
and the State, is working to the end
that each farm may become a madel
one and a profitable one during the
time the work of building up is in
progress.

Glorious Fourth which fell on last
Monday,
There were barbecues and speak

At&inson Springs the dinner was
fine, the crowd large and an excellent
speech was made by Prof. Charles A.
Keffer, Director Of the Department
Of Far mExtensian Of the University
Of Tennessee Prof. Keffer's address
might be called a progressive patri-
otic talk. He spoke Of what is requir-
ed to constitute a good American citi-
zen and had many things TO say that
were edifying and entertainments
his talks always were, for Prof. Kef-
fer is a very efficient man in what
ever he undertakes. On the side he
told US of little incident in which a
man who, or whose people, had not
long been in America, asked him
"How long have you been over?" and
to which he replied, after looking the
questioner over from head to foot,
"Oh, about hundred and fifty years.
How long have you been over?" Prof.
Keffer was introduced by County
Agent H "A. Powers, who always ap-
preciate the opportunity to hear his
