WHY NOT KEEP FEW COWS
FOR STEADY INCREASE?
IF They Are Good Ones and Well
Cared for They Will Bring
Tidy Sum.

A man gets paid for the amount
of work he does. provided aood ;udg-
ment directs the work Where there
is market for milk cream or butter,
dairy cows supply this regular source
of work and income. according to
c, A. Hutton, dairy specialist Division
of Extension.
Many people object to keeping cows
for they say it ties them down. Too
many cows will but there is consider
able prof II a few cows, and they
- .--- lequire so much time and at
y good man can average
r., light cows per hour. With
th.:.9rS te"veniertly arranged-as any
farmer cen have lhem-three quarters
of an hour day will feed the cows,
bed them and clean the barn or shed.
Eight cows should produce an aver
age of two gallons of milk testing As
percent fat for 800 days. or 500 lbs
of milk and 232 pounds of butter dur
ing the same period of time.
With fat at IS cents, this price
would bring $3.50 a COW. The skim
milk, if fed to good calves or pigs
should increase this amount to $I3I.2o
The total 'or eight cows would be
$Io486o Iii addition, there would be,
if properly cared for, so or 60 two
horse loads of manure. Farmers can
clearly imagine what this would
amount to if put under most any crop.
With home grown roughage and good
| pasture, the feed bill for eight cows
deducted would leave a nice sum of
ready cash which has sifted in each
month.
If man cannot keep eight cows,
probably he could keep four. The
work would hardly be missed and the
cash would always be handy.
Cows make you work, but if the
cows are good and properly attend
ed to-, they will pay good wages and
give the farmer ready cash all the
time.
/ Milk few cows day and keep
debt away.
You can bring or send your cream
to Measamer Brothers, who are agenr
for the Nashville Pure Milk Company,
and they will give you the cash for
your cream. To have over a $1,000
coming in each year besides what the
| farm earns otherwise would be
mighty handy.
1t is well understood and admitted
that nothing improves a farm so fast
| as to feed COWS for milk. 1t is a
noticeable fact that any country that
goes in for dairying is always rich
farming country and the farmers are
prosperous. +.

ROAD SURFACIhG ORDERED
TO BEGIN At ONCE
One Mile and a Half West on the
Memphis Bristol Highway
To Receive Stag.

The Cumberland county Road Com
mission has arranged to have a mile
and half of the Memphis-to- Bristol
highway west of town covered with
some four inches of Stag from the
Roane Iron Works, at Rockwaad.
The plan is to begin at the Corpor.
alton line and surface a mile west,
Then jump to the bad piece of road
near the Howard Springs school
house and surface half mile there.
This work is to be done conditioned
upon CERTAIN aid being extended by
citizens of Pomona and between c.
vile and Pomona. The people C,>l
that way are enthusiastic over the
move and ]. H. Graham has agreed
to put in ten days with team haul
ing Stag. Numerous others will doubt
less do equally well, but as to that
we had not learned definitely up to
the time of going to press. This sur
facing work is badly needed and will
prove a great benefit to that section
of the road.
Some IS or 80 cars of the Stag will
be used. The cost per car here at
Crossville is about SIS. The first cars
are expected to arrive in few days
and will continue to come along reg
larly thereafter.

They also condemned Col. George
Harvey ambassador to Great Britain
for his utterances in speech in Eng

were afraid we would have to fight
Germany later unless the military splr
il of that nation was crushed.
The Legion further went on record
strong against the release OF prison

his being liberated. Debs is now serv--
