The teachers elected at the meet
ing of the board, Monday, are in
most cases a fine class of young men
and women. The outlook for good
schools this year seems to be better
than usual. The board and the Su-
perintendent expect every teacher
to do their duty. Every teacher owe
this to their patrons and the child
rem whom they teach. No teacher
will earn the money they get unless
they do their best and do that every
day. No teacher is wanted unless
they do this.

PFCK'S TALKS
TO FARMERS,
Opportunities in TenneS'
see for Live Stock
Production.

Tennessee is rapidly taking her
place in the forefront as live stock
producing State, especially in pure
bred herds to furnish service ami
mails to bring Up the standard OF
our grade herds for market pur-
poses.
Financial success is the reward of
the efforts of the pioneers in this
work, who have paid fabulous
prices for imported animals to pro-
duce thoroughbred service animals
for distribution among breeders Of
thoroughbred and high grade herds.
They are entitled to their reward,
hut in time the prevailing high
prices for thoroughbreds will be
followed by lower prices because Of
the increase in numbers in the pro-
geny of the thoroughbred herds.
There should be conducted an ag-
gressive campaign of education
among the live stock men who have
been raising schrubs, They could
be shown the money advantagesSin
feeding high grades in preference to
scrubs, how much sooner they get
their growth, and the greater re-
turn in pounds from the same guam
tity of feed; the advantages OF uni
formity in type and color; the diff
ference in offspring from using a
thoroughbred as against native or
scrub sire. The right kind of cam
paign of education and cooperation
with the live stock men ought to,
and will in very few years, entire
" eliminate the scrub,

"On motion it is ordered by the
Court, that the Superintendent of
Roads be, and is hereby instructed
to let the contract for rocking the

\ Che trial of the &foN murderers,
Tom Christmas, Otto Stephens, John
Mcclure and Charlie Petree, at Clin-
ton which has been going on for all
of last week and part of two days
this week, has been finished and
the jury has given it's verdict ofguil-
ty in the first degree, and the four
men will go to the electric chair.
The presiding judge set the day of
their execution on September 18th.
This case has attracted more at
tention than any crime that has been
committed in Anderson or any Of
the adjoining counties in memory
of the Oldest citizen living. The facts
connected with the murder is too
well known to be repeated here.
Public sentiment has been aroused
to a higher pitch ever known in this
part of the state before. 1t is a credit
to the law abiding citizens of Tenn
essee that violence has not been done
to these four criminals, 1t is always
better for the law to take its course
and so far these criminals have re-
ceived justice at the hands of the
law. There will be a miscarriage of
Justice if these men are not sent to
the electric chair and their crime
expiated by their lives.

| Those who have been producing
| beef cattle for market purposes nat
| urally could not afford to buy the
high priced service animals to use
with their native stock, but with the
supply of thoroughbreds constantly
increasing there will be a reduction
from prices paid while the supply
was limited, and the thoroughbred
sire will be brought within the reach
of the average live stock man. By
conducting a campaign OF education
with them, showing them the value
of using pure bred sires, they will
be put in the way of increasing their
profits in producing beef for market
and at the same time providing
market for the increased supply of
the breeders of thoroughbred stock,
at small price for the individual,
but equally profitable because of
the volume of business.
Tennessee has many advantages
for live stock production not enjoy
ed by other States. In the noun
famous sections of the State, where
the land is cheap and the grazing
good, the beef cattle can be produc-
ed ready for finishing, when they
can be brought to the rich valley
lands-too rich and expensive for
grazing-where the grains, clover,
and alfalfa can be produced for fin
ishing the animals for market
Our mountainous sections could
easily sustain five times the number
of animals now OF them during the
grazing season, which lasts eight
months in the year, and the rich
coves and valleys can produce win
ter feed for all the stock necessary
to carry over after disposing of all
ready for finishing on the grains
and feed produced on the rich lands
in the large valleys ard Middle Ten
nessee basin.
The tpossiDilft. fofF Successful
live stock production in, Tennessee
are almost unlimited when our re-
sources are utilized to their capaci-
! ty. When we contemplate our pos
sibilities we cannot help realizing
that we have hardly made a start
towards their utilization.
We are not wanting in Opportunl-
ties. The question confronting us is;
Are we going to be progressive
enough to profit by our superior ad-
vantages?

He was a man with rather a

but scarcely a warmer heart
could be found in the bosom of
a man. He was a true man, a

be truthfully said of him, not a
