WOMAN'S BUILDING AT THE
TENNESSEE STATE FAIIR
The Womnn'8 building is one ft the
most popular places at the Tennessee
State Fair, and well it should be, for
Tennessee can boast of the mo6t beau
tlful women in the world. The good
women of the state have made this de
partment what it is, one of the most
successful of any fair in the whole
world.
Over 10,000 different articles were
shown last year, and the exhibition
promises to be even better this year.
AU kinds of good things to 'eat are
tootbsomely arranged to catch the eye
of covetous man. There will be' innu
merable pies, cakes, bread, Jellies, can
ned fruit and pickles exhibited.
The women will be more interested
perhaps in the decorated cblna, needle
work, embroidery, lace work, crocheted
work and knitted work, all beautiful
in design and wonderfully made. Spe
cial classes for the girls have been pro
vided. Many a mystery in home man
agement will be solved by a visit to the
Woman's building at the Tennessee
State Fair Sept. 17-22, 1917.
DAIRY DEMONSTRATION AT
THE TENNESSEE STATE FAIR
Tennessee is known everywhere for
the quality of her butter. The dairy
interests of the state are well taken
care of by the Tennessee State Fair,
and this department attracts much at
tention each year by those who are in
terested in the cow.
Improved machinery of all types, de
signed to improve the methods of
handling milk and butter, are demonstrated.-
Nothing has been left undone
this year to make this department of
greater Interest than ever. The Ten
nessee State Fair is the fair that edu
cates. Sept 17-22, 1917.
Fair.
On Monday night, Sept. 17,' in the
big arena In front of the grand stand
at the Tennessee State Fair, Nash
ville, there will be held one of the
most elaborate displays of automobiles
in action - ever held in the United
States. It will take the place of the
horse show on opening night Frizes
will be offered for the various priced
machines, and this feature of the Fair
promises to be one of the most inter
esting and entertaining features of the
week. The decorative and electric ef
fects will dazzle the human eye.
Home Canning.
This is the year to can something.
The amount of fruit and vegetables
wasted every season would knock us
silly if It were possible to reduce it to
actual dollars and cents. We seem to
have become a nation of can openers
instead of can fillers. Unconsciously
the idea has taken root that a large
amount of science, experience and
some other things are necessary to can
fruit and vegetables successfully. Not
at all, and the home canning demon
stration department at the Tennessee
State Fair Sept 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and
22 will prove it to you.
Machinery Exhibit at Tenntee State
Fair.
Just think of it! Nearly fifteen acres
covered completely with farm machin
ery and farm implements of every de
scription. The machinery exhibit at
the Tennessee State Fair ranks with
the best In the country. Everything
from a hoe to a thrashing machine is
eihlbited. Contests between different
types of machines are always held at
the Fair to test the durability and ca
pacity of competing makes.

to the attention of those engaged in agricultural pursuiti the
benefits derived from attendance upon the State Fair and from
participation in the exhibit of agricultural products. In view
of the great necessity of an increased production in all food
stuffs I believe it would be profitable to all our fanners to avail
themselves of the opportunity for the advancement of their owm
interests which is offered by the State Fair management if they
would participate in some one or more of the rarious department!
in this state institution. Very respectfully,

GREATER AUTO SHOW
AT THE STATE FAIR
Exhibit at Nashville Sept. 17
22 Bigger Than Ever.
Five or six years ago when the auto
Industry had grown to such propor
tions that an auto show at the Tennes
see State Fair became imperative the
Agricultural building was remodeled
and utilized for the purpose. It has
proved entirely satisfactory, both floors
being used for the auto exhibition.
Last year every available space was
taken, and nearly every car represent
ed in the city was on exhibition, and
many sales were made. The auto peo
ple are already talking and planning
for a greater show this year. It is a
prosperous time. The farmer is getting
top prices for everything be produces.
He is extremely busy Just at present,
but by Fair time, the third week In
September, the corn crop will have
been made, the hay will be in the barn,
the small grain in the granary and the
farm work of all kinds in shape ad
he can take a week off and visit the
Fair. -
The fanner goes to the -Fair these
days for more reasons than one. He
plans to look over the auto show, for
he knows all the newest ideas and
models will be on exhibition. And be
is going, to be abundantly "fixed" to
buy the best going if he wants it, and
the auto dealer knows it.
Auto trucks and accessories of all
kinds will form a good part of the big
1017 exhibition, and no one will have
any excuse for not finding anything and
everything wanted at the auto show
at the Tennessee State Fair, Nashville,
Sept. 17 to 22.

Tennessee State Pair PruK Show.
Only a few years ago it waa com
monly believed that fruit could not be
raised commercially in Tenneesee. For
several reasons, however, the display
at the Tennessee- State Fair of apples
has refuted this assertion in a conclu
sive way. Ybritors will marvel at the
Quality and Quantity of Tennessee
grown fruit at the Fair. The arrange
ment for the exhibition of fruit at the
Fair has been many times favorably
commented on.

we advise the following method:
Make three divisions of your hogs
as follows: First, well hogs; sec

pay to treat: third, infected and
sick hogs that it will not pay" to
treat. This is easily done by
taking out all hogs showing sym
ptoms of the disease. This must
be done carefully, and mark
them by placing two hog rings
in an ear. Next drive the ap
parently well hogs into a small
enclosureand take the tempa-
tureof each hog. . All hogs show
ing tempatures ranging 99 to
104, mark so they can be identi
fied either by clipping a strip of
hair off the back or otherwise.
' We will call these iiogs well,
although they may have the di
sease in the incurative stage.
All hogs with tempatures from

An old fashioned Arizona cook

old and up.
cipe:
Nearly fill a deep granite-ware
baking dish with tart apples par
ed and cut into thin slices. Sprin
kle the apples generously with
sugar and dot over with small
bits of butter and cover with a
soft crust, made as biscuit dough
without , shortening. The crust
should be about half an inch
thick. Cover the dish closely
and set back on the range where
the apples will cook slowly, and
the crust will steam and cook
thoroly. When done place in a
hot oven to brown quickly. Tip
out on a platter and serve with
butter and sugar sauce. This
pot pie may be used as the main
dish of a simple lunch, or as a
hearty dessert to supplement a
slender dinner.
Dwarf Essex rape is one of the
most succulent and most satis
factory green feeds for poultry.
At this season of the year, when
the early summer garden ha3
served its usefulness, what
ground can be spared should be
spaded, prepared well and sown
to Dwarf Essex rape for green
feed for winter. It is also a cov
er crop which will make the gas
den more productive again next
year. .
Lettuce, beet tops, turnip and
mustard salad may also be used
as green feed. Small potatoes
and waste vegetables may be
used to advantage as chicken
feed.
Green feed in winter produces
eggs, and with them selling at
50 cents a dozen this year, every
farmer in Jackson county should
produce some rape.

Orphans of Tennessee Lock
ing For Homes.;
There are today in the Tennes
see Children's Home Society over
thirty attractive, bright, healthy
children ranging in ace from
tiny infants up to seven years of
age, who have as bright a pros
pect by nature as any child that
can be found. Their only need
is home training and environ
ments to complete their lives of
usefulness as citizens. We' are
using this opportunity to appeal
to the childless homes in Tennes
see to take one of these little ones
on trial if it does not meet the
requirements of the home it can
be returned to the Society. One
of the greatest privileges afford
ed the childless home is the priv
ilege of taking one of these little
ones under its care. Remember
our- Lord while on earth said,
"As much as ye did it unto one
least of these ye did it unto me,"
and again, 'He'that receiveth
one such little one in my name '
receiveth me." These little fel
lows are looking for a home, and
if you want to take one on trial
write a t Regen, Supt, 213-8th
Ave. N. Mashville, Tenn.
If you desire to do something
for your neighbor that will be of
a benefit to him every week,
there is nothing that would be
of more benefit than securing his.
