To Millers, Packers, Shippers and
Dealers in Meal:
Your attention is called to chapter
4S2, acts of 1905, making it unlaw-
full to pack and sell meal in pack
age form in any other than 6, IL,
"a, 48, and SO pound packages.
| have an opinion from the attor-
ney general that this law is still
valid in this state, and that it is
unlawful for any person to pack or
sell meal in package form in any
other size package, and that retail
ers are not permitted to put up
meal for their own trade in any
other size package and keep same
for sale and sell in package form,
The only exception allowed under
this law is that retail dealers or
others may keep bulk meal in stock
for sale and sell in any quantity as
called Tor by customers and weighed
out direct from the bulk stock at
the time of sale.
Under this ruling, it is therefore,
to put up meal in package form for
the convenience of his trade and
keep same in stock for sale unless
put up in the sizes as Required by
law. This law will be sactively en-
forced after June 1st.

SCHOOL
AT UNIVERSITY
Eighteenth Summer Session of State
University at Knoxville
Opens on June IL.

The eighteenth summer session of
the State University at Knoxville,
which provides for two continuous
terms of six weeks each, will open
June 18th and close August 31st.
Every possible opportunity for pro-
fessional improvement and advance
ment is available to the teachers
and prospective teachers of the
state. Any teacher may find courses
suited to his needs regardless OF the
type and grade of school he teaches.
Practically all of the 100 courses
offered by the faculty OF Sc instruc-
tors in 80 separate departments of
instruction bear credit toward the
completion of a college course in the
University and lead. therefore, to
some academic degree. Hence the
summer school becomes an integral
part of the University Credit for
either or both of the six-week terms
may be had. Teachers may. have
their present certificates extended by
attending a minimum of six weeks.
Progressive teachers will be quick
to realize and seize the opportunities
thus afforded. Regular students may
shorten their years in college by at
tending the summer school, since
three summer sessions are equivalent
| to a years resident work. The econ
omy OF time, money and effort in
this regard is at least twenty-five
| per cent Again high school stu
dents may remove conditions which
retard their graduation from their
local institutions. Arrangements to
this end constitute an agreement be-
tween the university authorities and
the state high school inspector.
| Following the example of Doctors
| Dabney and Claxton, who made
f1'he Summer School of the South"
famous in former years by employ
ing the best talent in the country
to lecture to and entertain the teach
ers, the present director has made
arrangements to carry on this feat
ure Aside from the regular mem
bers of the university staff experts
in primary, kindergarten, and high
school training have been called
from various positions, north and
south, to conduct lecture and demon
stration courses. Among the noted
lecturers and entertainers scheduled
fol the coming season arei z. p.

Offerings on the loose floors and

strength, but no good leaf was sold.
Some fairly decent good common

There has been some more activity

Prices were unchanged.
We estimate that about rs per

sold. The greater part of the unsold
stocks consist of the low and COM
mon grades. The low prices for
these grades are unattractive and
farmers are showing indifference in

week at prices ranging from IL to

lugs is dragging. Prices ranging
from 5 to cents for old common
to good medium fired stock.
The cold weather during the past
two weeks has checked the growth
of plants very materially, which is
good thing since the ground Is too
wet to pillow, and prepare for plant

weather now, we will see planting
starting and no doubt the crop will
be gotten out in ample time. Farm

good tobacco and will cut the acre

better care of the crop than they
have been doing for the past several
