through o. B. Rector agent for the

BIG YIELDS BY BOYS
BEAT STATE AVERAGE
Average Yield for Whole Country
261z Bushels; Corn Club
Dsys Get Sc.

Boys Corn Clubs were organized IN
81 Tennessee counties m 1921. The
total number Of community corn clubs
was 1856 and the total enrolment OF
boys was AIX This was an average
of So members to the county and al
most IL to each community club. 1t
was required that 6 boys be enrolled
before a county or community club
was organized
The task before each club membei
was to follow the instructions of his
county agent in the growing of ali
acre of corn. They were given in
.structions regarding the type of soil
Ito use, methods of preparing. fert-
lilzing, planting and cultivating. They
were also instructed as to the variety
of corn most suited to various types
l4of soil and localities.
A large percentage of the 2,I54 boys
successfully grew their acres of corn
and the county agent succeeded in
collecting 7oI complete booklets show
ing details of the work and the results
obtained. A compilation OF these re.
ports furnishes interesting food foi
thought to every person interested in
the agricultural development OF Tenn-
esSae.
The 7oI boys who submitted COM.
plete reports grew 3o,I75 bushels OF
corn or an average of So bushels per
acre. To grow this corn it cost SILL
684 or an average of 80 cents a bushel.
The average corn yield OF all farm
ers as reported by the government
was eeH bushels. While this yield
is slightly above the ten year average.
the corn club boys have produced
more than twice the average for the
entire state.
1t is Interesting to know that it
cost the boys an average Of $I6So to
grow each acre Of corn. The average
market price of corn IN Tennessee on
November I. was 50 cents per bushel.
At this price the 56 bushels would
bring $500, leaving a net profit of
$I2.24 per acre. But the corn fed to
livestock is worth more than the
price it will bring on the market in
the fall of the year. Many of these
same boys who are in the pig clubs
are finding that corn fed to hogs is
worth Is cents q bushel and that is
the value placed on their crop. At IS
cents a bushel the s. bushels would
be worth $47oo leaving a net profit Of
$3.50 per acre.
This report has every indication that
the corn club boys of Tennessee have
done a splendid work in 1921. The ad
vice to every member is to practice
these same methods on his entire
farm when he begins to operate one
of his own. 1t will result in more
farmers and more pros

Sale of the Anti. T tuberculosis Seals
Will Close Christmas Eve;

tuberculosis is still the most dread
ed disease Life insurance statistics
show that it is the most deadly In
the United States 900 persons die
every day from this disease, while
ten persons die eac hday in Tennessee
from the same cause.
These figures are startling in the
tale that they tell, but they are not
SO disheartening when it is known
that they are being gradually reduced
each year as the result of the annual
sale of Christmas seals, the proceeds
from which go to fighting tubercu-
losis throughout the United States
The annual sale of these seals start
ed in Tennessee December I, and will
end on Christmas Eve The sales to
date have been most encouraging &C
cording to those in charge of the
campaign in Tennessee which is being
conducted by the four leading wo-
mems organiza tions, and it is predict
ed that this state will make a most
satisfactory record OF sale by the time
the last seal is sold next Saturday
night.
The small price of a penny each
has made these little seals very popu-
lar and the yearly increase receipts
from the sale OF them is evidence of
their growing popularity. They are
being used extensively on letters and
packages of all kinds and their cheer

TENNESSEE CENTRAL R. R.
MAY Be RE-0RGANIzED
Movement Now on Foot That Looks
To Taking Road Out of Hands
of Receivers.

There has been considerable talk
for the past week over a movement
that is now on foot looking to the
reorganization of the Tennessee Cent
raj railroad through which means 1t
is planned to borrow million and a
half dollars to pay off the floating
indebtedness and provide working
capital. 1t is also contemplated to
take the road out of the hands of the
receivers.
1t is claimed the road had been los
ing $500 a day for many months pre-
vious to September and since that
time the loss has been over $1,000 a
lay.
Any arrangement that is made must
be made with the consent of the Ill
inois Central and Southern Railway
and the Fourth & First National Bank
of Nashville. for they are all heavy
holders of securities of the road.
This section would be greatly bene-
fitted if some move was made to get
the road out Of the hands of the
receivers. Nothing can be done while
the road is in the hanls of receivers
looking to reduce rates on any char
acter of freight. This county is now
paying very heavy freight charges
for Stag from lockwood for our roads
Unless relief is secured at no distant
date road work will begreatly hamper
ed in this section because of the ex-
tremely heavy freight charges. Our
people would welcome any change
that will give relief along that line.
