POWER FARMING


(By 7. F. Peck. Commissioner of
Agricultural
As to whether the tractor can be
substituted for the mule on the farm
depends on the character of the
farm-whether it is comparatively
level or is a farm of steep hillsides,
whether the fields are large or cut
up into small tracts by roads or
streams that can not be closed The
acreage Of the farm must also be
considered. It is certain that the
mule will not be eliminated for some
farm operations for long time.
While that is true, the farm trac-
tor can be used with increased profit
on the majority Of farms, because
land can be broken during the hot
fall months when the land is too
dry for team work. The subsoil is
dry enough. Subsoiling should never
be done when it is wet. The tractor
can work long hours. Ground can
be prepared in less time and more
thoroughly with the tractor. Tractor
cultivators are being manufactured
that furnish motive power for the
cultivating season.
The tractors usefulness is not con-
fined to preparing the soil and Gull
tivating the crops. 1t can furnish
satisfactory power for grinding the
grain, cutting ensilage, shredding
corn, cutting hay for mixing, grind
ing limestone and furnishing power
for the farm repair shop and saving
wood.
To make the tractor profitable on
the farm the farmer must keep it
employed. He can do so if his farm
has sufficient acreage, or he can ar
range to do the tractor work for his
neighbors whose farms are not large
enough TO justify the purchase Of
tractor. Communities Of small
farmers should cooperate in their
farm operations and get the benefit
of the best in labor-saving machinery
by having volume of work to Justify
the investment.
In buying tractors or any kind of
expensive farm machinery, buy only
from dealers who maintain service
department, to insure your getting
service out of your investment. I
have known few cases where trac-
tors were sold by dealers who got
their money, delivered the tractor
and left the farmer uninstructed as
to its operation. The purchaser got
no benefit, could not successfully
operate the tractor and returned to
the use of mules. Later another
tractor company, giving service,
placed tractors in that neighborhood, |
staying with the purchasers until
they could successfully operate them.
The first tractor sold was one of the |
best made, but the tractor was prac-
tically given away by the farmers,
after which he bought the other ma
chine, was instructed in its operation
and IS well satisfied with it.
The manufacturer of power farm
machinery who expects to build up
a permanent business will find it
profitable to install service de-

Farm Organization Shows Progress
in Tennessee.

{
in Tennessee.
Possibly no movement for organi-
cation among the farmers in Ten
nessee ever made faster progress or
received more hearty approval from
every source than the Farm Bureau,
formerly known in many counties as
County Councils of Agriculture.
Starting about two years ago the
movement has grown to where AZ
counties now have organizations.
During this time the organizations
have accomplished many splendid
things for the farmers. It has made
progress because it has as its prime
motive the development Of more prof
table and permanent system of agri-
culture within the various counties
and also the advancement of the edu-
cational and social welfare of every
citizen in a legitimate and practical
manner.
The latest step in the development
Of the movement was the organization
of the temporary State Farm Blu
reau Federation at Nashville recently
by representatives of the various
county farm bureaus The organiza-
ton is federation Of the various
county farm bureaus. which, at this
time, have combined membership
Of $500. As soon as the membership
Of the county bureaus has reached
10000 it is planned to make the or
ganizati0n permanent and affiliate
with the American Farm Bureau Fed
GRAFTON, of which most of the states
are already members. ]. Frank Por-
ter, Of Maury county, was elected
president of the organization, and R.
H. Leeper, of Jackson, secretary.
The viee-presidents are: F. /. Smith,
of Knoxville; ]. L. Clendenning, of
Paris, and Ise Moore, of Chatta-
nooga.
In speaking of the movement in
the state, DR.. 7. F. Dixon, organiza-
ton specialist, Division of Extension,
states that the outlook for the or
ganizations is very bright at this
time. Membership in the bureaus
has been materially increased dur
ing the last few months. An organf-
cation has just been formed in War
rem county and the Hamblen county
bureau has been reorganized on a
strong basis. McMinn county is lay
ing plans for immediate organization.
There is also a strong movement for
a bureau in Smith county. Harde-
man county recently completed a
membership campaign, which was
one OF the most successful yet con-
Quoted in the state. A membership
fee Of $40, the highest for any or
in the state, was assessed
and close to 200 members were Sc
cured, with indications of many more
coming in this fall.

furnished picric acid, a high class
explosive surplus from war time at
the cost Of cartridging, boxing and
shipping. The total cost to the
farmer for picrie acid per pound
laid down in Tennessee will probably
not exceed 10 cents per pound. This
is less than one-half the present cost
Of agricultural dynomite. At this
price the farmer will be able to clear
MS land at One-third the usual cost
Of clearing land Of stumps.
All orders will be procured through
the county agricultural agent
or through farmers or business
men appointed by him. There
fore, in order to secure this ex-
plosive it will be necessary for the
person wanting it to place his order
with the local county agent or men
appointed by him so that co-operat-
ing, the people of the county may
have sufficient orders for a carload.
No less than minimum carload lots
viii be shipped. Persons living in
counties where no agent is employed
may place their orders with the
county agent in the adjoining coun-
ties and thus secure the pierre acid
in his shipment, provided there is a
carload order made up in his county.
No person will be allowed over 1000
pounds.
Parties ordering picric acid should
accompany the order with a check
covering the cost of the amount
ordered at the rate designated by
the agent. The check should be
made payable to the bank designated
by the agent and the order sent to
the county agent.

/ According to Prof.. 0. M. Watson.
OF the University of Tennessee. Ten
nessee is particularly fortunately
situated for making money in the
production of apples. He points out
tnat the apple growers of the North
west, who are making money out Of
apples and who supply the great
bulk OF apples offered on the mark
cts OF the country, are more than
5000 miles from the great markets.
while Tennessee growers are within
500 miles of them. In view of this
tennessee. apple growers ought to
be able to make good profit on
savings in freight alone, he says. He
emphasizes the fact that lust as
good apples as can be produced in
any other section of the country can
be grown in practically every county
IN the state. Prof. Watson does not
advocate the launching of big ex-
elusive orchard projects. but saws
that instead every farm should have
a lew acres in apple and other fruit
trees as side line and that good
money can be made in this way, pro-
vlded the trees are properly cared
Tor by pruning and spraying.
In the renovation of the old orch
ard, Prof. Watson says that the first
thlng to do is to clean it up, not BY
letting cattle and other livestock
pasture in it, but by cutting down
the briars, woods and dead limbs and
burning them, thereby getting rid
OF insects and diseases which harbor
IN such places. He advises against
using the orchard for pasturing i've
stock, as they damage the trees more
than they do by cleaning it up.
The next step in making over the
Old orchard is the pruning out of
parts OF the top in order to let light
m to the inner branches of the trees.
Plenty OF light in all parts of the
tree is necessary for the growing Of
fruit, as sunlight kills disease which
attacks the branches and fruits. The
next and one Of the most important
steps IS spraying. San Jose scale
can only be controlled in this way
and this is one of the worst orchard |
pests known.
For further information on spray
ing the orchard. write the Division Of |
Extension for Publication 96. "Spray
the Orchard" It gives spray sched- I
ule in addition to many other valu-
able pointers.

Reduced Rates For Limestone


The new state organization IS at
present laying plans to see what can
be done to get reduced railroad rates
on ground limestone used for farming
purposes. ]. f. Porter, president.
states that he believes such will re-
suit in good to the railroad as well
as to the farmers. for the reduced
rates should Immediately encourage
the shipment of crushed limestone
and by increasing the productiveness
OF the land will increase the railroad
tonnage for the years to come. Mr..
Porter has asked the executive COM
mittee of the various county bu-
reaus to pass on the matter and for
ward request to Capt. T. F. Peck.
commissioner Of agriculture, sug-
costing that he, through applications
to the railroad commissioners. do
all in his power to have the rates in
Tennessee reduced on level with the
rates in Virginia, where reduced
rates have already been secured.

A LONG FACE NEVER
EARNED A PENNY

And crouch never helped a hui
man being. You can afford a smile,
even if you do not feel like it, A
smile does not cost you anything,
yet it has a business value. The chap
who ducks up smiling when every
body is pulling long faces is the chap
you want to do business with.
The crouch only begets grouches
and grouchers. Look out you are
not infected by the crouch. His
poison is more dangerous than boil
shevism, mosquitoes and fake
'hootch" combined.
Smile when you mean it and smile
when you don't and keen right on
with cheerful mug. 1t is good
business. It helps your digestion.
And it makes you welcome every
where, advises Sugarman's Indicator.

Out at the Country club the other class for women in "Reconstructlve Personal Hygiene" was in action. couldn't help but think of a very clever little story which has been going the rounds about a certain beautiful woman who has been re duclng," "banting," dieting and all sorts of other things to get rid of flesh, who said to very clever gen tleman of her acquaintance:

 Both-or either can be dispensed with according to Dr. McConaghy's "reconstructive" work, for with his scientific knowledge of personal hygiene" he knows just what exer- cises to give in order to reduce what ever parts of the body are out of proportion.
 Why be fat?'' is pr. McConaghy's slogan and when you observe his splendid physique, his broad shoul- ders. his erect bearing, his slender limbs and his graceful movements. you feel confident that whatever ex- ercises he prescribes for that terrible "obesity" which to women is night mare"-will be sufficient and better still--absolutely harmless.
