W. E. Kirksey, truck farmer
east of Greenfield, has about as
well kept small farm as is usually
found. A young acre patch of black
berries having its first years growth
this season made an excellent
growth and promises a number OF
plants for this fall setting. From
az acres sweet potatoes he saved
413 bushels of eating potatoes and
191 bushels seed. While truck
farming in every phase is car
ried on by Mr.. Kirksey, the main
crop produced is poultry. At the
present 100 r. I. R. hens and pull
lets are to be found, which show
good breeding.

be held at Martin on November 18th

Nowhere in Weakley county can
any prettier piece of new ground
clearing be seen than that on
Spring creek levy near Greenfield.
Mr.. E. H. Pertle has cleared 8
acres which is now ready for the
pillow i, four acres having been
plowed. Adjoining this Tom Coats
has cleared rs acres which is about
ready for the pillow. Mr.. Womble
on the opposite side of the road
has had his new ground under cult
walton for 3 years which has pro-
duced good crops. Cultivation Of
all lands up to the drainage ditch
is now cultivated which was once
suitable only for raising frogs.
Opening up this land adds much to
the appearance of the farms.

Our hustling potato salesman for
Weakley county, I'd Harrison, of
Martin, has shipped to date 81 cars
of Nancy Halls which has brought
a total sum of 100000 to the
farmers selling at this time. Our
Greenfield buyers, Mr.. Swearingen
and Jeter have shipped number of
cars also, as well as other towns.
Ruben Burdett, younv dairy
farmer just out Of Martin has plans
made to combine truck farming
with his dairy farming. While sever
al acres of truck crops will be
grown, yet his major project will be
dairying. At present he is milking 8
cows which are being fed balanced
ration and made to produce to the
fullest capacity. He will set one
half acre of grapes in the spring.
Advice is given to sheep growers
to watch their flocks closely for
stomach worms. Indication of this
trouble is dullness and lack of thrift
among the sheep. Later the skin
becomes pale, as do the Innings of
the eyelids and mouth. Also swell
ing under the jaw may be seen. The
most satisfactory treatment is the
bluestone treatment. Make this by
one-fourth pound blue
stone in one pint of boiling
water. Dilute this to 3 gallons of
cold water which is sufficient for
100 sheep. Give three ounces to
sheep over one year old and half
The amount to young sheep. Give

Mr.. Hoover, who is taking an OPP

good word to say of labor, and on the
whole it seems justified. Labor is no
greedier than other portions of the
human race, though apparently.
Judging from demonstrations in re-
cent years, more susceptible to bad
leadership and more restricted in vi
sion than are those with wider oppor-
tunities and broader horizon. The
rugged self-respecting, business-like
laboring man>is not unmindful of the
conditions of unemployment in this
country. He has too much sense to
he fooled by the silly story that cap
ital is destroying itself for the sake OF
destroying labor organizations. Very
likely he owns stock in the Pennsyl-
vania or Maine Central railroads. He
reads, anyway, and there is much
that is not lost on his observation.
It sis also apparent to Hoover that:
Labor is growing in efficiency and
shows u willingness to remove OBJ
jectionable limitations that grew up
during the war" This feature is es-
pecially gratifying. If this country is
