Those who are disposed to worry
over the problem of the unemployed
ought to take an occasional look at
Lexington courthouse yard and see
|sprawled there the number of idle ne
groes, who we are told, can not be in
duced to pull fodder and pick the cot
ton which is and has been so badly
needed. On Thursday of last
week, in the middle Of the morning,
there was group of sixteen idle ne
groes and man after man made the re-
mark that not a one of the idlers
could be induced to pull fodder or
pick cotton-and there are doubtless
white idlers who are as worthless. II
the law does not take some steps to
break up the condition of idleness,
something else, not so creditable, will
happen--something like the Kuklux
will be organized and the Migrants
ordered to "move on"-and in addi-
ton, outrages will be perpetrated
here by masked men, as is being done
in other places. If there are enough
of people, as good citizens, and in the
law-enforcing offices of the county,
to have any concern for the welfare
of Tennessee and Henderson county.
they had better get into action and
put some limitation upon public idle
ness. -

BUY. BUT BUY RIGHT.

Never buy today what you can buy
tomorrow appears to be motto
that is being taken too literally.
Saving money is, to be sure, out
paramount problem but tangling
thrift up with the idea that it means
boarding is bad business for all con-
cerned.
A miser boards his money, but he
no more represents real thrift than
does the spendthrift who has limou-
sine ideas with a jitney income.
To refuse to purchase needed and
necessary merchandise is putting
sand on the track of prosperity. If
the wheels of business are to buzz we
must not impede them with the mon
keywrench Of inactive dollars.
BY all means buy, but in buying be
sensible. Apply the slogan, make
your dollars have more cents" for all
that it is worth. Study the advertise
ments; pay yourself dividends by
taking advantage of the real bar
gains. There are many of them.
But don't do yourself and every
body else the Injustice of boarding
money that legitimately- should. be
spent or invested.
Add whenever possible to your
regular savings. If you have thought
that savings meant to tuck cash away
in the house, forget that ancient, dam
gerous habit. Put regularly GER
tain amount of your income into
some safe, interest bearing invest
ment and none is safer or more con-
venient than United States govern
ment saving securities. The So
stamps, obtainable at the postoffice
cost but a few cents more than 81
and are paid in full Jan. L, 1926.
Start in today to get a collection Of
them.
Other government securities in
clude the 25 cent Thrift stamps, the
new 81 Treasury Savings stamp, the
new $25 Treasury Savings Certifi-
cate and the 500 and 81, 900 Treas
ury Savings certificates, these certi-
ficates always being worth more than
you paid for them and redeemable
at any time If you must have ready
cash.

CO. AGENT NEUBAUER SAYS.

This is the time Of the year to
begin thinking about work on the
farm for the coming season. The
most important thing to do on the
Range is to get land cleared.
The cleared acre viii return
profit. As long as it is idle it is
source of expense so why not get it
cleared. Almost every farm has
different land clearing problem to
work. Many OF our farmers live in
the cut-over districts; many have To-
Gated on heavily wooded districts and
others have both. In the cut-over
districts it is largely a matter of
clearing the brush and blowing the
stumps. In. the timbered districts it
it is better to brush and cut the tim
Der and sow the land to clover seed.
In couple of years most of the small
stumps viii be so rotted out that they
can easily be pulled by team and then
the big stumps can be blown. In this
manner some use can be derived from
the land in the form Of pasture. It
lis decidedly expensive to blast green
stumps and furthermore it is not adj
visable to raise crop Of potatoes
or grain from new soil Of this kind
because the soil is not IN position to
return good yields. The green land
should first be pastured for two or
three years; then the stumps can be
blown out and the land broken for q
crop. Clover seed this year is much
cheaper than it has been for some
time.
Many of our farms are already fol-
lowing out this practice and. have
found it very satisfactory. Where
the brush is light, stumps can be re-
moved at the same time and land
turned into hay field or pasture and
thus give the soil a chance to get
ready for a grain or cultivated crop.
With either system Of land clear
ing there viii be considerable stump
blowing and the best time to do that
is in the spring when the ground is
wet. When blowing at this time of
the year. there. IS a double saving
because it takes less dynamite and Of
cheaper grade. There is another
great SAYING in dynamite and that is
in the manner of buying. There is
a difference of about seven cents a
pound when bought in carload lots.
This means saving of 81 on the
hundred or about $500 on the car.
Farmers in a community should club
together and buy carload at q time.
Ten tons is the minimum in q carload
and the car can be sent to any one
point where farmers can come to get
their dynamite.
Every community should buy its
dynamite IN this manner and where
there is sufficient interest the move
ment can be started by writing the
County Agent.

County Agent.
