most economical way.
Those who are interested most
in the rural schools are studying
not only Agriculture, Manual
Arts. and the Home Scince and
Art, but are taking courses in
the teaching process and study
ing the primary methods. They
see in operation a model school
under Miss Hayes. They see ex-
actly how a skillful teacher takes
little child and starts it on the
road to learn, seeing how to
meet the different problems and
to help the child as it moves
on in its educational career from
step to step
We find that the Tennessee
Polytechnic Institute is awake to
the need of music in the rural
schools and it is giving a practi-
cal course that the teachers can
put into operation when they re-
turn to their different schools
And the community singing that
we have in chapel is a feature
worth while.
In the college department are
found number of students who
are taking practical courses in
Agriculture. Mercahnic Arts,
Domestic Science and Domestic
Arts, as well as in English,
Mathematics, Languages, and
other college courses.
The numbers of students at
tending the Summer School this
year has already more than
doubled the attendance of any
previous year, and are all inter-
ested and doing lasting work
which will be great help to the
communities in which they will
serve.

Perfect Organization.

Ine StudedtS and teachers OF
the Tennessee Polytechnic Insti.
tute are having an excellent
school. So many counties are
represented that each one has
organized and has its own chair.
man and secretary. We are en-.
jOying so many good things in
an educational way that we have
decided that our county papers
would be glad TO inform the people
athome of a few things we have
found in the Tennessee Polytech-
mic institute.
On arriving on the compus. we
notice tank which contains
some 5000 gallons of crude oil
which runs to a 55.horse power
engine and furnishes the fuel for
it. This engine runs dynamo
which passes its power on to a
number of motors which turn all
the machinery of our machine
shop. 1t is intensely interesting
to step into this shop and see a
piece of rough timber sawed,
planed, morticed, and polished
into a nice peice of furniture
and it is equally as interesting
to see piece of iron or steel
put into the hands of students
and directed through the differ
ent pieces of machinery. They
change this rough material into
wheels, bolts, tops, screws, or
any other pieces that they may
need.
Our interest is again aroused
when we step to the other side of
the building and see the men
take the leather and mend shoes
of every description and also see
them making shoes that would
be a credit to any house.
To the rear of the machine
shop we find a building in which
automobiles are torn down and
put together, repaired and learn
ed from every angle. Young
men not only study the different
parts of these machines and how
to repair and put them together.
but they do more they step into
the machine shop and make the
most delicate parts of the auto
mobile machinery. 1t is an op-
portunity for our young men Of
Tennessee to learn machinery as
they can learn it in but few
places.
Now we leave the shop and
look across the road and see in
erection a model dairy barn which
will be a plant for instruction as
well as for farm use. On the farm
we see the relation of crops
being put into operation. Here
we study these things in the
class room and also see them in
prac tic al demonstration. We
have for observation crop rota-
tions, a small fruit farm. and an
excellent display of farm animals
The students run the incubators,
look after the poultry, plan bal

Are The Farmers Of Tenn

By Capt. T, F. Peck,
Commissioner of Agriculture

Fair, ten years ago. we found II
necessary, in order to make
creditable exhibit of agricultural
products. to go on the market
and buy material to round out
our display. We had a fair
showing Of live stock, but it was
practically all from other States,
Farmers and live stock producers
were seemingly indifferent.
While we had within the State

breeders did not care to compete

We also had some professional

for exhibit purposes. We real
lied that if we were to make the
State Fair serve as a stimulus to
better agriculture and better live
stock, we must enlist the active
enteSest and cooperation of our
own producers in the State.
We offored premiums for CON-
munity exhibits of agricultural
products, The State Department
of Agriculture delegated the
work of stimulating community
cooperative effort in agriculture
and live stock to the Assistant
Commissioner of Agriculture for
each division of the State. Al
first we secured two community
exhibits. We found where we
had one or two from those COM
munites during the fair before
featuring the community ex
hibits ever after we had every
one interested in those exhibits

exhibits, comparing and taking
hotes and planning for next year.

COUNTY COURT VOTES FOR
3Oe SCHOOL LEVY.
Action Means More Money
From State and Longer
School Term.

BY a decisive majority, and
one that indicates a strong senti-
ment in the county in favor of
longer school term, the Jackson
County Court Monday decided in
favor of a levy of. 30 cents for
school purposes. The vote was
l9 to 8, with two not voting.
The action Of the County Court
means that Jackson County will
get $66. 10000 additional from
the State that it would othetwise
not have received, and means
also, that the schools of the
county will be able to run for
seven or eight months instead Of
four or five.
1t was the most important
question coming before the court
at its quarterly session, and
brought on much argument pro
and and con- A bitter fight was
made against the increasded levy
by certain members of the Court,
but the sentiment for longer
terms and additional State aid
was too strong to be overcome,
as the vote showed.
The result of the vote was
very gratifying to all the friends
of education, and the members
of the Court, who favored the
levy. were congratulated on their
stand.
Following was the vote on the
question:
