CUTWCRMS DAMAGE
WHEAT OVER COUNTY

Numerous complaints are being
voiced about wheat damage, some
thing cutting off the plants and TAX
ing or damaging whole fields OF that
crop. Numerous Investigations have
proved that the cutworm is the cause
Of the damage. And it has been
widespread in all parts of the county
taking u toll of about ten per cen
lverage and in many cases so to
5 per cent. There is nothing known

With the wheat in the condition it is

winter without much death loss, due
the mild open weather and the

them to begin active operation:

Fall blowing after freezing weather

DEcREAsE I'M LIVESTOCK

"A slight decrease in numbers Of
all livestock on farms in Tennessee
is noted on January 1, as compared
with January 1, 1920, as reported
by G. L. Morris, agricultural statis-
tician, Bureau of Crop Estimates,
United States Department of Agri-
culture. IL
The decline in horses and mules is
slight--horses 2 per cent. and mules
/ per cent. During and since the
war, breeding has shown a decline
and the mortality has more than off
set the increase. The auto is taking
the place Of "Old Dobbin" and
Beck is being replaced to small
degree by the tractor.
Both milk cows and other cattle
show decrease milk cows one per
cent, while other cattle have declined
five per cent The heavy slump in
prices Of beef cattle last year, taken
with the high prices Of feed at the
time, is the principal cause.
While sheep showed good increases
in 1918-19 and early in 1920, the
heavy decline in prices Of both sheep
and wool has caused a number of
farmers to quit the business. Good
increases are shown in many locali-
ties in the real sheep counties, the
real decline being in counties where
sheep are few and dogs still plenti-
full. A decline Of six per cent. is
shown for the state.
The heaviest decline is noted in
swine, the decrease being 282. 900,
or is per cent. in the past year
This was forecast several months ago
by the heavy movement Of brood
sows from the farm. A few local.
tiles show a full crop, but the decline
is very pronounced in most Of the
state.
A decided reduction is also noted
in the prices Of livestock January I,
as compared with one year ago, the
average price per head Of horses be-
ing $50, decline Of 20 per cent;
mules $108, decline Of 20 per cent;
milk cows $40, a decline Of 80 per
cent; other cattle 5000, a decline
Of SO per cent; sheep $3.50, de-
cline Of AZ per cent; swine $3.50, a
decline of 81 per cent.

SAYS FARMERS RECEIVED
INADEQUATE RETURNS

IN his report for 1920, Secretary
Of Agriculture e. 7, Meredith sums
up the results Of the years work
showing how farmers in response to
a national demand produced one of
the greatest crops in the history of
the country and have received a very
inadequate return for their labor. He
insists that this condition must be
remedied and recommends extension
and development Of cooperative
marketing, consolidation of the Blu
reau Of Markets and the Bureau Of
Crop Estimates for the sake of
economy and efficiency, aid to the
farmers in securing necessary per-
sonal credit, an expansion of the
studies of the cost Of producing farm
products, a world market reporting
service to gather information on
production, supply, prices Of and de-
mand for agricultural products in
other countries. The secretary also
recommended the encouragement Of
methods to limit the hazard or risk,
in agricultural production. and the
finding of means for utilizing sur
plus and waste farm products. He
recommended that the nitrate plant at
Muscle Shoals, Ala, be put in opera
ton so that the nation may be indie
pendent of foreign nitrate supplies.
Among the other recommendations
was that an appropriation of $780,
100000 per year for five years be
made BY congress to continue the
federal aid road program He also
urged better method Of preventing
forest fires and Of reforestion.-Pro-
