DAIRY COW IMPORTANT FACTOR
IN MAINTAINING SOIL FERTILITY
Nest Fertile and Highest Priced Lands Found In Dairy Sec
tons = Rule-Fertilty Of Soil Is Fundamental
Basis Of Permanent Agriculture
By G. A. Hutton, Dairy Specialist, Division Of
Extension, University of Tennessee

The dairy COW is one Of the most
important factors in maintaining and
Increasing soil fertility. Az rule the
most fertile and highest priced lands,
the world over, are found in the dairy
sections. On the Island Of Jersey land
rents for $50 to $50 per acre, and is
used for keeping the Jersey COW. Land
In Holland, worth from S., 900 to $1,000
per acre, is used almost exclusively
for dairying. In almost every com
munity In our own country can be
found farms, the fertility and value of
which have been very materially in
creased thru the intelligent use Of the
dairy COW.

THE PROJECKIN SON

The proJeckin son was the beatenest chan
That ever did live on the face of the man
He wouldn't do muffin but loaf around
While the grass was asping the Gran in the ground
And his Oldest brudder was blowing and hoain,
Ana aDossn the mggers to keep the crap CROWN
Some said his pa was the one that was 10 blame
FOR the way ne mad raised him and fetch him to shame
Some said his ma had petted and spilled him
ana some SAID MS brudder had leased him and rled
him; -0N
But the scriptures don't say nuthng about what heys
all done,
So blame all the blame to the projeckin' son.
He was always projeckn' dis way and dat,
Apullln the dogs tail, and rilng the cat
And fussin' around at terrible rate
And frowin at the boys that passed bv the gate
And tellin his pa it wasn't his fault
And when ne growed up, pshaw, he warn't with his
salt
Now mostly when chlun are raised pretty ruff
Fed pretty scanty, and walloped enough
Spanked with a bed slat and pulled by the hair
Sung with and prayed with at the family PRAYER
Their muscles grow strong and their intelligence broad
And they grows good and strong in the grace of the
Lord.
But when you chillun that's petted and spilled
And washed every time their fingers gets SLED,
And always a-eatng of candy and stuff
And a-crying for mo- when dey done got enuff
When that child is grown, and his childhood is done
You can bet your last dime He's projeckin son.
Now the projeckin son in the Bible you know
Was so bigety and lazy he wanted to go
To the land where he thought he could lap milk and
honey,
And cut swell dash with his share OBJ de money
But pshaw he was soon at the end of his ribbin,
With spendin' his money in riotous libin'
It scared him, you bet, and he took out to walkn'
An he went to his pa, and he done some tall talkn'
He low that the niggers that lib with his pa
Had good grub to eat and fine hacker to chaw
While he was a-ibbin' with vermin and frogs,
And a-eatin' the grub that was fixed for the hogs
His pa glad when he seed him comm
He never did finish the tune he was hummin'
He jumped off the porch and run down to meet him.
An fell on his neck like he wanted to eat him,
An called all the nggers and told EN- to rum
An kill whole beef for the projeckn' SON.
Now that's what's the matter with chillun today
When their pa let's 'em grow up and have they own
way,
They's so bgety and lazy that when dey gets grown,
They wants to run off and try it alone,
And the fust thing you know, OATS de proeckin son!

Church Greatest
Force For Good

Toledo, O.. June 27.-James j.
Davis, United States secretary OF
labor, from the pulpit Of the Rich
mond church here, yesterday de-
clared that the greatest force Tor
good is the church, and that he be-
lieyed the church can organize to
get employer and employee to geth-
er so there will be no further need
of the department of labor.
Secretary Davis is here in his Of
ficial capacity Of supreme dictator
of the Loyal Order of Moose, whose
annual convention opens today.
He declared that in more than
one hundred labor controversies
which he has been called upon to set
tie thus far, as head of the depart
ment of labor, and which he has had
to discuss personally with President
Harding, the secretary of labor had
been given precedence at the White
House over other matters.
The secretary told his audience
that after he had talked with the la
Dor element about the eight-hour
day, he suggested that it's members
go home and give their wives an
eight-hour day.
Il do not know of force in the
world" said the secretary in his
sermon, Chat can do so much good
as the church, especially now when
the world is upside down. The
church has employer and employe
both in it's membership. If we
would follow the golden rule how
easy it would be to settle disputes
between capital and labor.
THE church ought to broaden
itself and organize to help in this
great work. 1t could play a much
larger part in. reconstruction than
1t now is doing" he asserted.

Twelve Large Fish;
One Hours Hogging

Mr.. Luther Richmond informs the
Enterprise that he and his brother,
Allen, don't want to be left out in the
hogging game. They got their old
clothes and shoes and hied away to
the north fork of the Obion river
one day last week and went hog
ging up to the neck, catching one
fish weighing IS pounds and one
weighing 40 pounds, also ten fish
averaging from ten to fifteen
pounds-all in one hour. Fine luck,
we call it, Mr.. Richmond, and we
honestly believe that is the real way
to catch fish, but we prefer the old
hook and line.

Permanent soil fertility is the fund
amental basis of permanent agricul-
turc, and the conservation of soil fer
tility is the greatest problem of agrf-
culture. Unless the fertility removed
from the soil by the growth of crops is
returned the land eventually becomes
so reduced in plant food that profitable
crops cannot be grown. Farmers prac-
ticing this system have very properly
been called mine farmers because
they are constantly mining out the
fertility, or plant food, and hauling it
away from their farms without repac-
ing it. Soil fertility is like a bank ac-
count. If the farmer continually
draws on the stock of plant food CON
tanned in his soil without replacing the
amount withdrawn, it will be come ex-
hauSted so far as profitable crop yields
are concerned, just as surely as will
his supply Of cash in the bank become
exhausted if he continues to write
checks without making deposits.
Whether or not it is possible to main
tain fertility where grain crops are
raised and sold and commercial fer
tilizerS are used, it is certain that it is
seldom done. Grain farming has al
ways meant selling fertility that has
been stored up in past ages, and has
been followed by impoverished soils
and Improbable agriculture. The boys
and girls reared on such farms have
gone to town and left their parents to
exc out meager existence on such |
depleted soils. On the other hand, we
ind that the farm from which the
products have been sold largely in the
form Of livestock or livestock products,
have gradually increased in fertility
and value, and the owners are pros
porous and contented.
The most marked examples are in
connection with dairy farming Con-
tinuOus growing of crops and selling
them from the farm is like drawing on
the principal deposited in the bank
until all is gone, while dairying per-
mits man to live OIL the interest, as
deposits Of soil fertility are frequently
made, and the interest grows larger
year by year,
Market and Manurat Value Of Crops.
In selling crops on the farm, or in
feed stuffs, the wise farm
ers consider the value Of the plant
food that leaves his farm, or is added
to it, as the case may be, and also the
market value Of such products in re-
alton to it's manural value. Allowing
10 cents per pound for nitrogen and
cents per pound for phosphoric acid
md potash, average values for these
elements when bought in commercial
fertilizers in large quantities, in nor
nal times, the total value of the plant }
God contained in one ton of some of !
he principal lrm products and feed
tufts is as follows:

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and IN
able to work ~
He finally decided. after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be free
from rheumatism until the accumulated
impurities, commonly called uric acid
deposits, were dissolved in the joints
and muscles and expelled from the
body.
With lthis idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and final
ly compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf-
ferers everywhere know about his dis
covery through the newspapers. All
druggists have been appointed agents
for Allenrhu in this vicinity with the
understanding that they will freely re
turn the purchase money to all who
state they have received no benefit
