STOP THE FIRES.

During the month Of May Upton
county suffered fire loss Of near
q quarter Of a million dollars. There
have been a dozen fires in the county
during the month, some of them
amounting to very little, while others
carried great losses. We viii al
ways have an occasional fire. It will
be long time before the fire demon
can be fully conquered. but it is pos
sible, BY taking every precaution, to
prevent most fires.
Many times you have read @the fire
was caused from the flue," or the
ssfire started from sparks falling on
the roof. These causes can be
easily eliminated BY keeping all flues

in repair and BY keeping all trash
and leaves off the root.
There is always the danger Of a
lighted match thrown carelessly
away. There is no way to eliminate
this cause except 10 see that no
match you throw away is allowed to
continue burning.
We believe that our new fire fight
ing apparatus can put out almost
any kind Of a fire, but it can not,
nor can any other machine, put out
fire without causing some damage.
Let's see that the number of fires
during the month Of June is reduced
to a minimum.

the Pharaoh before whom Moses and
Aaron worked their signs and won
ders in demanding TIE freedom Of
the children of Israel, has just been
dug up by an American achaelogo-

wonld he called up-to-the-minute
comforts of home. Just behind the
throne room in his great Judgment
hall, the king had his private suite,
where he could take little nap be-

was handsome bathroom with ex-

couch in bedroom and a little cell

an alabaster mug from which he

In view Of the fact that large
number Of Confederate veterans in
Upton county are interested in the
provisions Of the pension act passed
by the last legislature, and which act
has not yet been published, County
Court Clerk Charles P. Simonton
recently wrote to Col John P. Hick-
man, secretary of the Tennessee
Pension Board, in order to ascertain
the amount per quarter each PEN
sioner will hereafter receive. The
reply to his letter is self-explanatory:

G. P. Simonton, Clerk,

Poultry Management in Winter.


Of all animals the chicken responds
the quickest to feed and environment.
The temperamental condition of hen
is such that, despite all the high pro-
ductive greeding she may possess, un-
less she is surrounded by favorable
conditions she will not lay many eggs.
Now is the time to take care of the
poultry flock. Proper feeding and
management in the fall will be much
more profitable than to wait until win
ter or late fall to start taking care
of the poultry flock.
The hen should be kept in a coop
free from draught and containing plen-
ty of light, having all the light they
can get in the winter time. Each her
Of the average breed should be allot-
ted at least two square feet of floor
space. This is none too much. The
coop should be we'll ventilated. Lots
Of fresh air is as essential to the
health and vigor Of poultry flock az
it is to the human family. The coo1
should be kept clean and dry. Too
much emphasis cannot be laid on thi:
point. The coop should be cleaned
every other day and by all mean!

St. Paul, Nov. 1.-THE Minnesota
Farm Bureau federation observed
"Home Town Paper; Week" last week
by urging county farm bureaus and
their 1900 township units throughout
the state to cooperate with the news
papers in their communities. = rs
ut is only fair to say that the kind
of support given to the farm bureau
movement by the country newspapers
of Minnesota merits real support for
the home town paper by the farmers y
the farm bureau news service says in
letter received by the county farm
bureau. Farm news is printed be-
cause it's news, and of interest to
readers. It doesn't mean charity. But
it does mean that the home papers,
in almost every case, are giving their
farmer readers accurate news of the
big farmers organization in Minneso-
ta-the farm bureau federation with
it's $4,000 members. 1t means, too,
that through this support the home
town papers are making it easier for
the farm bureau to do work of real
benefit to agriculture and therefore to
the state as a WHOLE"

cooperative marketing plan is pre-
