FORBIDS REMARRIAGE
OF DIVORCED PERSONS

The last loophole through which
divorced persons can creep into law
full matrimony in the Episcopal
church viii be closed if an amend
ment to the canon, which was pre-
scented recently in the House of
Bishops at the Episcopal general con-
vention in Portland, Oregon, is ac-
cepted.
The amendment was offered by
Bishop c. H. Brent, of Western New
York, former chaplain general in
Europe during the war.
The law of church now forbids
Episcopal ministers solemnizing mar
riage of any divorced person except
in the case of an innocent party to
divorce for adultry. The amendment
by Bishop Brent expressly forbids
lay members of the church, who have
been divorced, from being married,
"The effect of the amendment"
said Bishop Brent, "is to make clear
to the church members the binding
attitude of the church.
"There are some persons who have
construed the present law of the
church as binding on the clergy, not
to perform the marriage ceremony
for divorced persons, but have con
sidered it lawful for them to go to
civil magistrate or a minister of
some other communion and get mar
ried. This amendment forbids d.
vorced persons from remarriage,
either by an Episcopal clergyman OF
by anyone else.s

PROFIT IN FARMING
(By T. F. Peck, Commissioner 81
Agriculturel

(By T. F. Peck, Commissioner d
Agricultural
Il am going to get away from the
farm. there Is no money to be made
in farming" Occasionally you viii
hear this expression from some
farmer. But on investigation it viii
be found that the trouble is with the
farmer, and not with farming. Io
setoff against such pessimists as the
one quoted, you viii find farmers
who have made net profits of more
than 5000 an acre on strawberries
Of more than $1,000 ar acre on to-
baceo: some who have produced more
than 400 bushels Of potatoes to the
acre; still others who have made
profits of as much as 800 per acre
IN orchards; and others have found
fine profits in the production Of poul-
try and hogs, where these have had
the proper attention.
The trouble with a treat many
farmers is that they are land poor.
They try to cover too much ground.
They try to farm on too extensive a
plan-land that is deficient in plant
food and WHICH can not, therefore,
produce good crops. Much OF the
land farmed does not return the cost
Of production.
Whether the land is rich or poor,
it must be broken and pulverized; 1t
must be planted and cultivated, and
the crops, good or bad, must be
harvested. The difference in the la
Dor on poor land and good land, in a
good crop or a bad one, is not very
marked, but the difference in net
profit is very great.
If we could make up our minds to
cultivate only the number Of acres
we could get in the proper condition,
fertilize as it should be and use only
the best seed and leave nothing I'M
done that should be done during the
season for cultivation, we would
harvest more from few acres than
we have been harvesting from large
acreage, and the cost in labor would
be materially reduced The land not
in cultivation could be pastured until
it could be given the right prepare
ton for crop production, or sold to
some one who would see what we
were doing with a few acres.
Land can not produce crops profit
ably if it is run down, is deficient in
plant food and is not cultivated
properly. We have been mining the
most Of cur soils so long that it is
deficient in plant food, and then we
half prepare the land, do not use the
care we should in the selection of
seed, and are not as thorough as we
should be in the cultivation and har-
vesting Of the crops. With such
methods profit in farming can not
be expected.
We can restore the fertility Of our
soils and grow money crops each
year while we are doing it, ! have
taken land which l was told was

worn out and il three years have on
it as good crops as could be grown
on any soils anywhere. would get
some green crop on it to turn under;
/ would subsoil it: / would lime it; ]
would grow soy beans on peas during
the summer to turn under, and rye
and crimson clover in winter to turn
under. / would use acid phosphate
Of course,I could not treat a very
large acreage in this way at one
time, but each year I would add a few
acres.
IF we will treat the soil fairly it
will do its part. Tennessee could
nrofitably employ 10 men on the
farming land Of the state where one
is now employed if we would eulti-
vate the soil as it should be. Many
farmers are land poor and are slaves
to their land They try to farm too
large an acreage and can not give it
the proper attention, either in the
preparation Of the ground for the
seed nor in cultivation of the grow
ing crops.
Another thing that viii help to
make farming profitable instead Of
a losing proposition is community
cooperation and a greater variety
of products. The farmer could have
ready for the market at
all seasons of the year,
and with cooperation among the
farmers of community in market
ing the products the best prices could
be obtained
Farming, conducted as it should be
and as it can be, will make our va
rious communities prosperous, and in
such farming communities the chill
1ren will be content to stay on the
farm and carry on the work so neces-
sary to the prosperity of the coun-
try. Let us do thoroughly what we
undertake to do and not undertake.

STATE SHOWS INCREASE IN
HOGS; DECREASE IN CORN

Corn and hogs, the Ruth and Naomi
OF agriculture, face difficulties IN
Tennessee. The corn crop is approXi-
mately 100000 bushels short Of
that Of last year, while the number of
hogs for fatteniug is seven per cent.
greater than year ago. The con-
dition Of the corn crop declined dur
ing August from Sc to rs per cent,
forecasting a yield of only 75,2l4.000
bushels, against 907f3,O00 bushels
last year, AT the same time the num-
Der Of hogs for fattening is l,486,000,
against $4,000 last year.
Drouthy conditions prevailing over
the greater part of the state for the
past several weeks are blamed for
the slump in the corn prospects by
e. L. Morris and Dixon Merit, Ten
nessee representatives of the crop
and livestock renorting service, in
giving out the forecasts of the United
States Department Of Agriculture
Tennessee. The condition Of the corn
over the state, they say, is now far
below the average, though few coun-
ties Of the Upper Cumberland and in
the eastern portion of the state will
have excellent prospects.
The drouth has brought all field
crops practically to a standstill and
garden vegetables are becoming
scarce. Tobacco is firing rather bad
ly, but cutting is progressing rapidly |
The condition of the crop is rs per
cent Of normal, which, in the larger
acreage, forecasts production Of 1885,
305,000 pounds, compared with 49, |
100000 pounds in 1921
The late hay crop is being harvest |
ed in fine shape, though the yield is |
cut short. The production of tam
hay is estimated at 1881 900 tons,
compared with 1,528,000 tons in 1921. |
Peanut production is estimated at
478,OOO bushels, compared with $685. |
600 bushels last year !
The Covington leader. (Covington, Tenn.) 18??-current, 1922-09-14
CROP REPORT FOR AUGUST


The drouth, extensive over the
greater part Of the state during the
month OF August, caused great dam
age to growing crops, according to
reports received by Commissioner Of
Agriculture Z. f. Peek. Some rains
fell during the last week Of the month
and afforded some relief, but some
sections are still suffering for lack of
moisture.
The greatest damage was probably
done to the corn crop and the Weld
as a result Of the prolonged dry spell
will be out several million bushels,
Early planted corn had pretty we'll
matured before the drouth set in, but
the late planted croD. which includes
most Of the acreage in corn, suffered
severely. Several crop correspon-
dents believe the production will be
out in half, but this is likely a too
pessimistic view. Present conditions
Indicate a yield of about three-fourths
Of last years production,
Reports as to condition Of the cot
ton crop vary greatly from the coun
ties in the cotton belt in the state.
The crop has been badly damaged by
the drouth and in lesser degree BY
the boil weevil, and the production
this year will fall considerably be-
low that of last year and below the
average production for the state.
Cotton picking has begun in some
counties, but reports as to yield have
not been received from these sessions.
Rust and army worms have combined
with the drouth and the Weevil in
damaging the cotton crop.
Reports as to the condition of the
tobacco crop vary widely, according
to localities. Some counties report
prospects for an excellent yield and
the crop in good condition, while
others report the crop badly dam
aged, A summing up of renorts
from correspondents in the tobacco
sections would Indicate
that the yield this year will fall below
that Of last year and the quality of
the weed not SO good. One report
from the BLACK patch" is that the
yield will not average over ZOO
pounds to the acre, as against an
average yield Of from 500 to 1,100I
pounds to the acre.
Clover, alfalfa and grasses were
badly damaged by the prolonged dry
weather, and one result of this will
be a decrease in hay production for
the year This has also had a bear
ing on the report as to the condition
of livestock in the state, which does
not show as good as usual at this
time Of the year.
The average as to the condition of
crops, as compiled from the reports
of correspondents for the month of
are shown below, and also
as compared with the same month
last year; Cotton, 1922, IA per cent,
