BIG FOOD CROP

While Weakley county will not
produce this year any crop in abund-
ance that is generally counted
money crop here, yet we will pro-
duce bumper food crop. 1t is true
there will doubtless be big yield
of sweet potatoes, which to some de-
gree takes the place of the short to-
bacco crop, though by no means will
bring as much money into the coun-
ty as a normal tobacco crop, yet we
may count ourselves fortunate in
having plenty of the things required
to sustain life.
We ought to get lesson from this
years crop conditions that will re-
dound to our future good, and it is
hoped that we will. 1t is good for
us, we repeat, that the present out
look is favorable for a big food and
feed crop, though the yield of hay
was cut considerably short by the
two months of dry weather lasting
through May and June and up into
the middle of July. With an abund-
ance of hog and hominy we are not
going to starve, and most of us have
enough old clothes lying around that
will keep US warm through the win
ter.
Then next year we ought to plan
for a little tobacco, some cotton, a
fair acreage of sweet potatoes, large
patches of both early and late Irish
potatoes, and as much corn as we
can get land fixed for. Of course
every good farmer will want to seed
some land this fall. And with these
we need not fear famine.

FIRST DOWN

According to figures recently is
sued by the Federal Reserve Board,
the wholesale value of farm products
in the United States is now but 10
per cent above prewar leyels. II
we add to this the fact that these
products have reached the world
markets by payment OF freight
charges far in excess OF prewar
rates. it is clear to see that the far
n1er or his farm is practically down
to prewar income, as completely de-
flated as a child's balloon after an
all-day sojourn at county fair
Not only. that, but the farmer is
the first man down to rock bottom.
Even the food which he has raised
is quoted at Al per cent above pre-
war levels, after it has changed us
clothes and appeared upon. the
shelves under its various newly ac-
quired names; by which we under
stand why there is as yet haroiy
a speaking acquaintance between q

A GOOD SUGGESTION

The suggestion made more than
once by Rev. Fox in his great and
successful revival here that the town
of Dresden ought to be cleaned up
is good one and it is hoped the city
fathers, and the citizens, as well,
will profit by the suggestion.
1t doesn't speak very well for US
when a visitor comments unfavora-
bly, upon the condition of our town.
If store keepers and citizens will not
obey the ordinances which prohibit
the throwing Of trash and rubbish

chase necessities before the war
broke out.
Retail prices lag still further,
showing the tenacity with which
every man hangs on to all the price
which he may by any possibility ex-
tract. The more hands it passes
through, therefore, the slower will
the commodity come down and the
longer it will be in reaching bed
rock. ,..,...
The farmers stuff goes. at once
and direct to an open market where
it brings whatever competitive buy
ing will pay for it, with no artificial
initiation. This is often forgotten
by the consuming public, which does
not always understand that farm
products are the only commodities
that contain no artificial or arbitra-
ry PRICE elements.
Even if the farmer is the first man
down, however, he may count him
self fortunate. There are no smoke
less chimneys above his great food
factory. He is growing this years
crop at the least cost in several
wears. It is a safe bet that there is
not in all this country from Maine
to California and from the Lakes
to the Gulf a single bona-fide far
mer out of a job to-day.
And this is what counts. For jobs

Death Claims Sweet
Christian Young Lady

Willie Estell Parham was born
Feb. II, 1900, departed this life
Aug. ~, 1921. Age 81 years, 5
months and % days. Estell pro-
fessed a hope in Christ at the age
of 10 and united with the Mission
airy Baptist church at Bible Union,
of which she lived an activea and
faithful member until death.
She leaves a dear mother, father,
brother and sister and a host of
loving relatives and friends to mourn
their loss. Estell was good and
obedient daughter, loving sister
and a true friend, who was loved
most by those who knew her best.
She bore her Affections patiently
and ever leaned upon the promises
of Jeus and looked to Him for
strength and comfort.
She has gone to live with Jesus,
Gone to that bright home above,
Carried up holy angels,
To the throne of light and love.
Then why longer weep and mourn
her?
Why not be content to know
That the Lord thy God who gave her
Candy said it must be so?

 However, in the Indiana game the field was muddy Seller found he couldn't do much bunting, because his leg would keep slipping, so he made a trial at drop-kicking He sot better distance and direction than with the punts So the spectators were treated to the unusual sight of dropkicks instead of punts.
