GERMANY FEEBLE
BY DISARMAMENT
Forts, Artillery, Airplanes and
Small Arms Have Been
Destroyed.

BERLIN, Nov. German dis
armament, so far as weapons OF war
are concerned. is practically COM
pleted, according to the interallied
control commission. Artillery, small
arms, airplanes and Notifications
have mostly been destroyed. A few
fortresses on the Baltic sea. erected
as protection from Russia. are now
being dismantled.
Although no formal announce
ment has been made in Berlin, the
news correspondent Is informed that
recommendations have been made
by Gen. Nollet, the senior officer Of
the interallied commission. which
will cut down the size Of the control
commission. The reduction in per-
sonnet will come this spring.
The principal attention of the in
terallied commission is being given
10 the organization of the German
police to prevent Germany from or
ganizing a secret reserve army under
the guise of police. At the present
time the Sicherheits Polizie, or
green police" live in barracks and
go through much of the drill for
merly done by regulars on the drill
ground.
Watch the Police.
Gen. Nollet's mission has several
times had occasion 10 send notes TO
the German government protesting
that the allies can't permit the po-
lice of the various cities TO be organ
lied into one large controlling unit,
with a central staff. The police con-
sists largely of former non-commis
stoned officers in the army.
The allies are giving much atten-
ton to the organization of a sys-
TEN Of control which will make it
impossible for Germany to manu-
/ facture any military supplies. Army
wagons, field kitchens, signal equip
ment and army supply department
material are either being destroyed
or rendered unserviceable for mill
tary purposes.
Scarcely a week passes but what
reports are brought in of hidden
supplies of arms or munitions. The
allies offer a reward for information
of this sort Many of the reports

Revenue in Berries

One source of revenue that has beeA neglected in the vicinity of Ozark by many people is berries , of all kinds, strawberries, black berries and dewberries.
 There has never been a time in the past twenty years when there was a glut of berries of good quality at profitable prices. and in the past five years there has never been sufficient to supply the local demand. There is no treason why farmers who own their own land could hot make some mighty good money raising them. Their culture is far sim pier than cotton and their finan- eial rewards far greater.
 There should be a gonl sized acreage planted this spring for shipping as well as to supply the local market Strawberry plants can he bought for $l per thou. sand. and the number required to set an acre does not exceed ten thousand s" the'ni'ial cost is lo%. ~
 The kiOndike has been found to be the best early shipping Der. ry and the selection should be re. stricted to this variety. They should be planted before April lst. so they can make a good growth before hot weather comes. New ground is best for them. but any soil will grow them if some manure is applied or commercial fertilizer may he used satisfactorily. Keep clean until July or August. Set them in rows three or four feet apart and set the plants a foot or eighteen inches apart in the rows. Do not set them too fdeep or too shallow. In rows four feet apart and fifteen inches between the hills 1t will require 5000 plants to set an acre.
 Black berries have been exceed. lngly profitable the past four or five years and sthere should be quite lot of them planted for shipping as well as to supply the local market, which will take large quantity Any good soil will grow them and everybody knows how to cultivate them. The Eidorado is one of the best. It is reasonably carly and eXtrem- 1 ly productive. There are other varieties that are good, among them the Mersereau. the Rath- bun and the early Harvest this variety being desired by many beca. se.of it's small seed. Plant. ed in rows seven feet apart and three feet apart in the rows re. quires approximately two thous. and plants to set on acre. but there are few people who will want to take care of an acre.
 i Dewberries have always paid well and there has never heen as many as the market could absorb either the local market or the shipping markets. The Lucretia and the Austin are both good. Set the same distance as black. berries. Their culture for the lirst year or two IS similar to blackberries. After the second year it ia best to SOW the patch m lowerowing grass and do not cultivate them, but fertilizc well every year with barn-yard manure.

EASY MONEY

Under rules put in force while the
roads were under the Government
control probably one half of the en-
ployees of the railroad received at
one time or another compensat ton
for which they render no service,
For instance, the station agent at a
village where trains stop only three
times a day, and who perhaps spends
only three or four hours per day at
the station, receives overtime COM
pensation if the arrival of his trains
is spread over a period of more than
ten hours.
: Under regulation established
by former Director of Railroads
McAdoo, employees are paid for one
hour per week for punching the clock
as they enter the shops. This alone
costs the railroads $5ooooooo to $75,-
100000 year.
So far as service to the public is
concerned it seems to be on a par
with the ordinary business man pay
ing his clerk for one hour per week
for hanging up his hat in the morning
or farmer paying his farm hand for
one hour extra per week for washing
his face before breakfast

APRIL CROP REPORT
Shows Splendid Condition of Wheat;
Not SO Many Brood Sows

With the exception of winter wheat
on April I, 1910, the condition of the
crop in Tennessee at this time is the
best since 1914, according to G. L.
M Morris, Agriculture Statistician
| Bureau of Crop Estimates, United
States Departme of Agriculture.
A mild winter has been of decided d
advantage in helping the plants to put
on good root growth. Though there
is considerable late sown, and the
freeze of March 20 did some slight
damage to the earlier crops, and
shows to small degree on many, the
crop, as whole, is in splendid shape.
The acreage, the present season
is far below normal, but the indica-
tions at present are for near normal
yield per acre. The condition on
April was o4fo as comparted with
6636 on the same date last year, and
1870 the ten year average.
While there is only a small amount
of rye grown in this state for grain,
the condition is much above the aver
age; o336, compared with 75tb last
year and $50 for the ten year aver
age.
The number of brood sows on farms
showes a still further decline in the
past twelve months. There being
only oo3o of the number of yeal
ago. or about 1870 of the number on
the farms, April 1, 1919 Farmers are
with the prices received
for swine.
Farm labor supply is reported much
better than last year, being IIo8o OF
one year ago, but, as farmers cannot
afford to pay the wages asked, the
demand is not up to normal, only $50.
The condition of the winter wheat
crop for the United States is 81 %,
with 75.69o last year. and
1880 for the ten year average. The
condition of rye is oo.36 compared
with 86.8%o a year ago.
The number of brood sowS in the
United States is estimated at 8,7Soooo,
compared with o,o7o,ooo AprilI, 1919
wo years ago.

HANDSOME RESIDENCE SOLD
E. C. Harrison Purchases the J. B.
johnson Property and Will Take
Possession May !.

G. L. Harrison has purchased the
]. B. Johnson residence on the south
side of town. 1t is one of the most
handsome and slightly residences in
town and Us we'll equipped with such
modern conveniences as furnace
water and separate light plant 1t
has only been built few years and is
in excellent condition in every way.
While the purchase price has not
been made public it is supposed to
have sold for little less than $1,000.
1t was built a few years ago by Mr..
! Johnson as pertinent residence, but
as they have a winter home at West
Palm Beach, Florida, they deem it
hardly necessary to maintain two
homes, especially since they pass so
much of their lime in Florida The
residence is tWo-story, has good barn
and other buildings and embraces
about five acres of ground, which,
however, is largely as nature formed
it, except that the most of the large
trees have been removed ana the
young growth left to form a grove
Mr.. Johnson plans to build a bum
gallo on his farm tract south of town
and will occupy same as summer
residence, dividing his time between
this place and West Palm Beach,
Florida, where Mrs Johnson owns a
winter home.
It is source of much qualification
to many of cur people that Mr. Far
rison has invested in so handsome a
home as that indicates beyond ques-
ton that he intends to make his home
here Prominently He is a man OF
much energy and keen business ability
and is full of the spirit Of modern

GOING ON THE ROCKS
Whiskey Dabblers Fall Into Hands of
Officers; Several Stills are
Destroyed.

The first effects of engaging a
second policeman for Crossville
brought forth fruit Sunday when
City Marshal V. c. Lyles and his as
sistant, Dock Scott, in company with
U. S. Revenue Officers H. T. Lowrey
and R. L. Harris and Constable Henry
Turner landed some men with about
a gallon of whiskey in a car and also
destroyed eight barrels of still beer.
The conditions as they come to US
seem to be about as follows: Sun
day Marshal c. V. Lyles anu y. 5.
Revenue Officer R. l.. Harris arrested
]. Rurref France, Dale Parker and
Alonzo Buttram near Dorton. In
their car the officers found about
a gallon of whiskey. They were
brought to town, made bond and the
case will come before Commissioner
J. w Dorton Saturday at one p. m.
for a hearing Indications now are
that the car which belonged to ]. b.
France, will be conhscated. Mr..
France it seems purchased the car
only short time ago and paid 5000 or
$500 for it.
FIND STILL BEER
Sunday Dock Scott, j. H. Henry and
U. S. Officer H. T. Lowrey went to |
a point near Ozone and found eighth
barrels of still beer, which was de-
stroy. The still and worm had been !
removed. When the above named
officers arrived on the scene they
found Sheriff. G. w. Walker and
three of his deputies-Ab. Day,
Sherley Gill and Baxter Swicegood-
all there.
