DWERSIFICATINO OF CROPS
T. F. Peck
Commissioner of Agriculture

Now that much of the 1921 crop
is harvested, garnered and market
ed, and that remaining getting rea-
DIV for harvest, and the time for our
1922 activities approaching, we
can afford to and should give some
thought to our plans for next years
crops-what they shall be.
Some of us have concentrated our
efforts on the production of certain
crops to the exclusion of practical
" all others. We may have found
weather conditions unfavorable for
that particular crop, or we may
have been visited by insect pests
that ruined the crop, or market
conditions maybe were SO unfavora-
BILE for our equipment and supplies

may have been compelled to buy for
use on the ,farm a great many

depend on that crop to buy what he
might as we'll have raised on the
farm, is seriously handicapped if
that crop should be cut short by an
unfavorable season, or there is an
Improbable market for his prod
uct. Then, too, at this particular
time, when conditions are so unset
tied and prices so uncertain. the
hazard is greater for the one-crop
farmer. More security is assured
the farmer who diversifies at least
to the extent Of providing for the
requirements of himself and family.
With the development of commu-
nifty cooperative effort among far
mers, a diversified system of farm
ing is more secure, because with
cooperative effort, quantity, quail
ty and variety of product are
assured, and those are the three
requisites for good prices. Every
year some crops will command
good prices, so we will be assured
what we need for home consump-
ton, which will not be affected by

things that under more favorable
conditions our soils would have
produced.
Practically all the crops suited to
the temperate zone can be success
gully grown on our Tennessee soils,
at least to the extent required for
home consumption, and they can be
profitably grown. "Never put all
your eggs in one basket is an old
adage that Tennessee farmers can
apply with profit in planning their
farming operations for the coming
year. l know that staple crops,
such as corn, wheat, tobacco and
cotton, because of volume, will
find market at some price, but we
have not always found that price
profitable, because of shrewd ma

THE COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER

THE COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER
In several recent issues the Trib-
une has tried to suggest some OF
the purposes entertained by good
community newspaper. 1t has tried
to make it clear that a newspaper is
not simply business enterprise OF
the ordinary kind, but that 1t has
certain functions to perform as a
representative of the community.
1t interprets that community to
the outside world. Also it is its du-
ty to ally itself with every force IN
the community working for pro-
gress, it must work to arouse pup
lie sentiment in favor of all advance
movements, to distribute informa-
ton that shall familiarize the pub
lie with such efforts, and try to
convince the people that they
should cooperate with projects
formed for the good of the commu-
nifty
No paper can perform these func-
tons thoroughly unless it has good
public support and the backing OF
the people and the business men,
The better financial backing a
newspaper gets, the more actively
it can work to help organize COM
munity movements, and to spread
abroad in other places the impress
sion that its home town is an adj
vancing and wide-awake modern
town.-Turlock (Calf.) Tribune.

In connection with our presentation of
these Autumn models the designers of this
important Tailoring establishment offer
this conception Of true tailored style:
every Printz model is tailored for a
type. 1t may portray dignity, elegance,
youth. 1t may express the practical or the
fanciful. But always it is charming and
distinctive, of irreproachable taste.
In Printz ORDINATIONS, no attempt is
made to reflect each fIeeting fashion; to
strain after extreme, bizzare effects. The
basis of true tailored style is dignified
beauty of line, rich fabrics and Jealous
attention to detail" Infinite variety as

the fluctuations of the market.
And that bringing good prices will
enable us to stand the loss on those
less in demand. For the Tennessee
farmer, diversified farming is the
safest, especially under present
conditions. IA

NOT ACCURATE

Anglo-Saxons established this ma
ton, wrote its code and sent their
sons into the wilderness to gatehr
fresh stars for the flag. Angle-Sax-
on purpose cowed the intervening
wastes, discovered world grainereies
beneath and prairies, scaled the the
grim western hills and unmasked
Eldorado, questioned sullen deserts
until they answered with gardens
and finished on the Pacific the
great adventure begun at Plymouth
Rock.
This is from an article by one
Herbert Kaufman,a florid syndicate
writer with German name. The
name would be unquestionably
German if it terminated with
double and it no doubt originally
did. 1t would begin with a C if it
were Anglo-Saxon.
But the point is that this is taken
from some of the printed fustian
the Ku Klux Khan c:rculates. The
Ku Klux profess not only to be emf
nently American but distinctly
Southern, and here they are trailing
along after the old New England
style of claiming everything worth
the while in the history of the coun-
try and ignoring the South. That
was meant likely to capture guilt
bles in the North.
The first men to establish colo
MES that endured in the territory
now the United States were En-
gllshmen, and possibly Of predomi-
mating Anglo-Saxon blood, but they
settled first in Virginia, not at
Plymouth Rock, and the first
Americans to carry the flag to the
Pacific were Lewis and Clark, both
Virginians.
AS for who Established the ma
ton, wrote its CODE" ETC., George
Washington, Virginian, command
ed the armies of the revolution,
Thomas Jefferson, another Vigin-
ian, wrote the Declaration of indie
pendance, and still another Virgin
ian, Madison, was called "the faith
err of the Constitution. The first
five presidents, with one exception,
were all Virginians, and so was
John Marshall, the first Chief JUS
tice of the Supreme Court who re-
tanned the office for life and made
the court of the importance it has
since been. The Secretary of State
and Acknowledgement in the first
cabinet, consisting of four memb-
ers, Thomas Jefferson and Edmond
Randolph, were Virg,nians. All
these men were of English descent
except Jefferson, whose progeni-
tors were Welsh and therefore Celt
rather than Saxon. Monroe, the
fifth president, was of Scotch de-
scent,
There is no objection to the state
ment that Anglo-Saxon blood pre-
dominated in the building of the
nation What is meant by the term
Anglo-Saxon in that, sense is En-
glish, but there have been many
citizens and eminent Americans of
other stocks and the population out
side of the South is very much
mixed. 1t is fanatical folly to talk
of excluding or ostracis.ng all not
of English blood.
But at any rate the fatuous Ku
Klux should not in their bombastic
propaganda fall into the Yankee
style of dating the birth of all
things American at Plymouth Rock
and attributing all subsequent ma
tonal achievements to the decend-
ants of the Puritans who landed
there.
Robert Kaufman's paternal an
cestors were not Anglo-Saxons.
They did not follow Henghist, but
