THE ADVANCE OF
UNDERSTANDING

Every romance of sixty brief
years ago could not imagine the
great advance heralded by the pass
ing of the stage coach.
The railway and telegraph were
coming into their own, but the tel
ephone had not been so much as
dreamed Of.
Yet the wise men of that day saw
the imperative need They saw
the value of every step which
brought people into closer COM
munication with each other.
They know this to be the one
way to increase understanding and
then came the telephone. And
with its coming time and distance
were swept away.

the latter was appointed Federal
Judge, is to have a fight when he
comes before the people,at the reg
ular August election next year.
While it has not been determin.
ed who will be the Democratic
candidate, several names are being
mentioned in this connection, and
it may be that there will be a pref

Ex-Governor Tom G. Rye and

HOLD BIGGEST WOOL
POOL IN TENNESSEE

w. e. Fowler, Bedford County
agricultural agent. reports one OF
the largest cooperative sales of
wool ever attempted in any one
county in the State. The sale was
held in May aud be assisted the
Bedford County farmers through
the county council in selling coop
eratively over Al 900 pounds which
was nearly double the amount of
wool ever sold comparatively at one
time in any other county in the
state
A. J.. Jerdan, marketing special
Isl of Division of Extension, grad
ed the wool which sold as follows;
Clear, $3.50; light bury, $l4 80;
medium bury, $l2 so; hard bury.
$40. l., S. Dinkelspiel of Louis
vile, Ky, was the successful bid
der. Other good bidders were:
Springfield Woolen Mills; Crouch
Wilson and company; Goodman
and sons, Glasgow, Ky; Isaac
Rosenbaum and sons, Louisville,
Ky
This pool caused Bedford Coun-
ty wool to sell for nearly 5 cents q
pound higher than it would have
sold for otherwise. About 225 far
mers consigned wool to the sale.
Mr.. Fowler he's assisted his far
mers in marketing comparatively
50 carloads of lambs since May 10
10 carloads or over 1,400 lambs
being shipped June 7. The far,
mers realized about $l30 per car
or close to $4,000 more for their
lambs by selling them cooperative
| ly than they would have received
by selling individually at loca
prices.
More than 80 carloads of lambs
have been shipped comparatively
from Wilson County and has re
suited in a saving of from ST Il
Sl25 per lamb, according to Agen
E, T. Arnold. Several other agents
have assisted their cooperators il
making equally as good saving
on lambs and wool this year, whicl
highly recommends the work o

Talks to Farmers
BY T. PECK
COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE

Farmers have been given much
concern by the long continued dry
weather, on account of the effect on
growing crops. The gardens have
been seriously damaged, and corn
has been injured to some extent.
We could minimize the damage
from drouth if we would begin in
time. Our average rainfall in
Tennessee is in excess Of so inches
annually-more than is necessary
for any kind of crop if we would
bnt conserve more Of it than we
are doing
IL you will fill three glass tum-
blers-one with sand, one with
clay and one with rich vegetable
mold-then add water to each as
long as it will hold, you will fad
that the clay will absorb twice the
quality,of water that the sand will
absorb, and the vegetable mould
will absorb four times as much.
Tbs shows us that lhe more veges-
table matter we get in our soil,
this greater their capacity for ab-
sorbing water.
If we want to conserve the rain
fall, must prepare q reservoir of
our soils to retain it. We can do
this by subsoiling our laud when
Ut needs it during the fall months,
when the subsoil is not wet, turn
ing under vegetable matter. This
will prevent land from washing.
Keep a winter cover crop when
possible, and turn under in the
spring, Let the pulverizing har-
row keep up with the turning pillow.
Never break up land rough in the
spring and allow the clods to dry
out before pulverizing Get dust
mulch on the surface and keep II
there during the cultivating season
Start the cultivators as soon asthe
soil is dry enough after each rain
Cultivate shallow but often. The
dust mulch will prevent eyapora
ton. Never stop the cultivatorf
during dry weather.
[ have been over much of the
State during the present cultiva
ting season, and have seen clods il
the fields where crops were "laiC
by"-conclusive proof that a goot
seed bed was not prepared before
the seed was planted.
We should also remember tina
the finer we get our soil pulverized
the more available we make th'
plant food in the soil, and at tn,
same time making it easier to con
serve the moisture SO necessary t.
the growth and maturity of crops
With the coming of the fines
warm days in the early spring, W.
get impatient to start planting
Instead of rushing our seed int,
half prepared soil, we should con
tinue to pulverize the soil. Xii
the weeds and grass that germinat
with the first warm days. We al
most invariably have a cold snal
that fetards the crop. We shoulC
get our soils in good condition
Let the soil get warm before plant
ing.
These suggestion are based oil
practical experience, and ever.
farmer will admit that they ar
good suggestions, even if he ha
not been doiug his work alonl
that line. Ask him.

COL. ARMSTRONG'S
Comment ON Cen.
SUS REPORT OF
KENTUCKY HORSES
The War Department Is Inter.
ested In the Increase of
Pure-Bred Horses

"There is the utmost need in this
country today of increasing the num-
Der of pureIbred horses, particularly
those of the thoroughbred type, on
which the War Department must de-
pend for its cavalry mounts in case Of
national emergency"
The above is a passage from the
statement by Col. Frank S. Armstrong,
Chief of the q. S. Army Remount Serv-
ice, relative to the 1920 census of Ken
lucky horses.
The uneasiness of practical, patri-
otto men like Colonel Armstrong over
the situation was amply justified by
the lesson of the last great war, which
so strikingly demonstrated the value
of the horse in connection with mod
ern warfare and revealed what would
have become a pitiful shortage, had
the Germans held out only very few
weeks longer than they did.
Nor must we forget the importance
of breeding better horses more extern
sively in times of peace. Better bred
horses mean better work horses bet
ter prices for them, and reader mar
ket.
The 1920 census figures indicate that
Kentucky, as usual, will lead her Sis
ter states as to both number and class
of horses, but even we are far from
approaching what should be our quota
in either count
Colonel Armstrong; statement in
full is as follows: '.- ..
Despite the very small amount Of
pure-bred stock, as compared with the
total number of horses in the state,
believe that, when similar figures for
the other states become available, a
comparison of all will show that Ken.
lucky still holds it's rank as the fore
most state in producing thOroughbreds,
'SThe relatively small percentage OF
thoroughbreds and of other classes OF
pure-bred stock included in the total
number of horses in Kentucky, is a
general, and not local, situation, and
the other states probably will show
even smaller percentages. The same
conditions, am told, prevail with live.
stock other than horses, though prob
ably not to the same extent as with
the latter. The census report upholds
and justifies the position taken by the
American Remount Association that
| there is the utmost need in this coun
try today of increasing the number OF
pure-bred horses, particularly those Of
the thoroughbred type, on which the
War Department must fdepend for it;
cavalry mounts in case of nationa
emergency, and which it met with
great difficulty in procuring in suffi
Gent numbers during the recent war
| The national need of upbuilding anC
| increasing American thoroughbred
horses can not, in my opinion, be over
emphasized"
