FARMERS READY
TO MEET DEMAND
FOR seed CORN
TAKE ADVANTAGE BAD Wealth
ER TO SHE'LL BEST SEED EVER
GROWN IN COUNTY.
MANY vARITlES ARE AVAILABLE
Expected That Maury viii Supply
Southern States With Seed, After
Meeting Local Demands--Bumper
Crop Is Now in Prospect.

! Anticipating greatly increased de-
mand for first class high grade pure
seed corn mkt spring, farmers of Mau-
ry county are taking advantage Of
these bad rainy daysy to select from
their overiowing cribs, and shell the
best seed corn ever saved in the histo-
ry of the county.
Not only is it expected that there
will be an increased demand for seed
in Maury county, but it is believed also
that this county will be called upon
to furnish seed to East Tennessee and
to the Southern states, where farmers
are turning more and more to diyersi-
fled farming in view of the slump in
cotton prices. Maury county will be
able to supply great part of this de.
mand.
Farmers have saved splendid seed
from several varieties, among the
most popular being Meals Paymaster,
Webb's Improved Watson, Boone
County White, Tennessee Red Cob,
Big Yellow Corn, Little Early Yellow
Wabash, Albemarle Prolific for silage,
and also Bats Prolific for silage.
According to present indications
farmers of this county will pay more
attention to the cultivation Of corn
next year than ever before. This does
not necessarily mean that the acreage
will be increased, on the other hand
county Agent Mclean believes the
contrarysmay be true, but farmers will
select only the best seed, and plant it
in the best soil on their farms, thus
probably reducing the acreage, and
materially decreasing labor.
With the seed corn of the county
saved under the most favorable con-
diitons last fall, with anything like
seasonable weather at planting time
next spring there should be less re.
planting than in many years.
: Indications now point to bumper
crop of corn for 1921, with the awaken
ed interest taken by members of the
boys corn clubs to be organized and
to work under the direction of the
county agent in every section of the
county.

CITY OFFICIALS TO
ATTEND SESSIONS
MUNICIPAL LEAGUE WILL MEEs'
lin NASHVILLE TOMORROW.
IMPORTANT BUSINESS UP.

Mayor w. O. Cherry and City Attor-
ney Hugh Lee Webster, and possibly
]. M. Dedman, former mayor, are plan
ming to attend the session of the mu-
nicipal league in Nashville tomorrow,
when Important questions relating to
the welfare of the municipalities Of
the state will be discussed.
Secretary Charles Gilbert of the
league this morning called former
Mayor Dedman, who Is a member Of
the organization, to ask why nothing
had been heard concerning the attend
ancS Of the representatives from Co.
lunfbia. Mr.. Dedman Immediately got
In touch with Mr.. Cherry and City At
torney Webster and asked them to
make an effort to see that Columbia
is represented at this meeting.
Among the important measures to
be taken up at this meeting will be
the discussion of the extension of mu-
inequalities, and the league will be
asked to take some steps looking to-
wards recommendations to be sub
mitted to the legislature. In rvie1y Of
the fight which Columbia is now max
ing for the extension of the city linn
its, it seems most important that this
city be represented at the mee ting
of the league.

ORGANIZATION or
CAVALRY TROOPS
NEARLY COMPLETE
ONE TROOP RECRUITED TO MUS
TERiNG sTRENoTH-oTHER
TROOP NEARLY ORGANIZED.
OFFICERS STILL WORK HAIR
Realized That There May Be Some Re-,
jections as Result Physical Examin-
ations, and additional Men Are Be-
Ing Sought for Enlistment.

With the recruiting of one troop
completed, and the men waiting to be
mustered into service, and with only
a few more recruits needed for the
scond troop of cavalry to be stationed
here, officers have renewed their ef-
forts to secure the neded men to give
Columbia two full cavalry troops.
Captain Herbert Dyer, who will be
in command of one of the troops has
announced that he already has enlist
ed the required number, but would
continue to accept applicants, as it is
expected that a few may be turned
down in the physical examination.
Captain Max Hardison needs only a
few more recruits to bring his troop
up to the required strength, and he is
confident that it will be an easy mat
ter to secure the men necessary.
Some delay may be caused in mus.
|tering the men into service because
o the change of administration. The
adjutant general and attaches in his
Office are up in the air. as to, the ap-
pointments, and 1t Is difficult to secure
a mastering officer to come to Colum-
bia to swear the men into service, but
commanders OF the, cavalry troops here
believe that this difficulty will shortly
be overcome, and that within the next
thirty days, Maury county will have
two complete cavalryf troops located
in Columbia.
The business men Of the city are
standing squarely behind the move
ment to secure these troops, and have
assured officers and their employees
that they will be given an opportunity
to take part in the regular weekly
drills.
The cavalry troops will drill only
one night each week.. a period Of about
one hour and for this the men Will
receive full days pay. Pa
The government will furnish horses
for the two troops, uniforms and all
equipment, An armory will be provid-
ed. and the establishment s of the
troops here will mean the expenditure
of many thousands of dollars annually
in Columbia. At the same time it will
provide Ia means Of recreation to the
troopers, and will furnish the city and
county protection at all times from
violence. .ss
is expected that business men will
shortly get in touch with officers of
the troops, and ascertain just what is
needed to complete the organization,
and push the movement to successful
completion.

PHINEAS|MURPHY

FOR STATE JOB
PROMINENT LOCAL REPUBLICAN
IS STRONGLY ENDORSED FOR
SEED AND FEED lNsPEcTos.
UNDER TaE NEW COMMISSIONER
Probable Charley Hardison VIII Be
Nanasd Coal Oil Inspector BY Gov.
Taylor--No other Republicans Are
Slated.

M. Phineas Murphy, secretary Of the
county republican executive commit
tee, is making an aggressive cam
paign to land the Office of seed and
feed inspector for Middle Tennessee
under Captain T.. F. Peck, who will
be commissioner of agriculture under
the incoming administration of Gov.
ALI A. Taylor. He is being endorsed
by both democrats and republicans In
large numbers and has already filed
stacks Of endorsements from this and
other counties with Capt. Peck.
Several Maury countians have been
mentioned for both state and feder-
al appointments, but Mr.. Murphy is
the first active candidate for a job to
appear and his friends believe that he
will be sure winner. When Capt.
Peck served as commissioner under
the two Hooper administrations he
had an appointee from this county, and
he knows a great many friends here
1t is said that the solid republican or
ganization Of the county will be behind
Mr.. Murpy and he will also have
strong support in Giles, where his
brother is power in the councils of
the G. O. P.
There has been little discussion or
scramble for the coal Oil pill inspector
ship here. It is generally believed,
however, that Charley Hardison will
be appointed. 1t is likely that he will
have the endorsement of John w.
Jackson, chairman Of the republican
county committee, and who will be
close to the powes that be. Mr.. Har-.
Olson is deserving of the Office and has
many ydemocratic friends who will
help him to land it.
Mr.. Murphy is in Nashville today in
conference with Capt. Peck.

URGED SOW
GOOD CLOVER SEED
WILL PAY IN LONG RUN TO USE
ONLY BEST, ACCORDING TO
COUNTY AGENT MCLEAN.

Due to the fact that clover seed sold
than $50 per bushel last spring, farm
ers of Maury county saved thousands
of bushels of red clover seed in 1920.
Much of this seed was hulled under
unfayorable conditions. and contains
much weed seed also. 81
In view of the great decline in the
price Of clover seed, farmers are urg-
ed to SOW nothing but the best seed,
which win pay in the long run. Farm.
ers who hulled clover seed which
contains much weed seed. would
probably find it TO their interest 30
