The annual short courses in Agrlcul
turing and Engineering at the Univer
sity of Tennessee will be held from
January 4th to February 27th, 1915.
No equal opportunity haa ever been
presented to the farmers of Tennes
see for the study of agriculture.
Every year sees additions to the equip
ment of the College of Agriculture, the
last being a breeding stable of Per
herons, consisting of carefully se
lected mares and stallions. The Col
lege Farm is undoubtedly the most
productive In Tennessee; all its fields
are run on the two-crops-a-year sys
tem, and its alfalfa cannot . be sur
passed. The most approved methods
la orchard, dairy and farm manage
ment, live stock breeding and feeding
are in daily practice, affording object
lessons of the highest value. No
farmer, young or old, can afford to
miss the opportunities offered.
The first month Is devoted to soils
and crops, including fertilizers, rota
tions and general farm management,
and -to the care of live stock, with
practice in feeding and judging by
score card. The month of February
is given to dairying, with practice in
the care of milk, feeding and care of
cows, and butter and cheese making;
and to truck and fruit growing, includ
ing practice In pruning and spraying,
thte making and care of hot beds,
and other operations of the orchard

TENNESSEE AS A DAIRY STATE
Tennessee can not make any claims
as to being a highly-developed dairy
state at the present time, the dairy in
dustry being only in its infancy. Wis
consin is to-day the great dairy state
of our country. But why should this
be true? Has not Tennessee just as
good, or even better, opportunities for
successful dairy farming?
For successful dairy farming four
things are necessary: Good cows,
proper feed and care, good markets,
and a man with a natural liking for
the business. Tennessee has for a long
time enjoyed the reputation of being
noted for her many fine herds of Jer
seys, but they are comparatively few
In comparison with the common na
tive, or scrub, cows. The average milk
yield of Tennessee Is : less than four
thousand pounds per year, while the
average yield of butter Is about two
hundred pounds per cow. Very little
money can be made by keeping cows of
this kind. It is estimated . that one
- third of all the cows In the country are
kept at a loss, one-third just about pay
expenses, leaving only one-third that
are milked at a profit By the use of
Ike milk scales and the tester, dairy
'man can weed but the unprofitable
' members of the herd, and thus, with
practically no expense, can double his
aet profits and still milk a smaller
number of cows.
While good cows are highly essea-
- tial ' for profitable dairy farming.
' there are doubtless as many eows that
fatt to pa profit becanae of poor
teed and poor care, as there are that
tall to pay on account of Inferior dairy
t ejialittes.. The cow may be compared
.: to a faotory. The feed we give her Is
the . raw material, the milk which
' she yields Is the finished product It
would be Just as wise to expect a flour
mill to turn out flour without being
supplied with wheat as to expect
a dairy cow to give a profitable flow
- of milk with Insufficient food. Too

the men who are "keeping cows,'

Faw riairvman have anv advantage
over Tennessee markets. According of crimson clover and rye part of the year, because of serious loss from
to the last census reports, nine
southern states Import annually
seventy million pounds of but
ter from the northern states. At 35
cents per pound, this would amount to
$24,500,000. Tet those dairymen in
the north are buying our cottonseed
meal and feeding it to a profit, keeping
the soil fertility at home and sending
ns the butter. Tennessee, it is
estimated, Imports two million five
hundred thousand pounds of buttlr an
nually from the northern states. The
Tennessee dairymen get from $2 to
82.50 per hundredweight for their milk
at wholesale, while the northern dairy
men seldom realize more than 8 1.60 or
$1.75 per hundredweight. 4 The farther
south one goes, the higher the price of
dairy products, and yet, generally
peaking, the cheaper they can be pro
duced. We should stop complaining
about the low prices received for dairy
products and devote more of our en
ergy to studying how to reduce the
cost of production through the use of
better cows, more feed, better ears,
and closer attention to details.
With the natural advantages afford
ed v, a mild climate, long growing
season, oheap home-grown feeds, and
good markets, Tennessee , should be
one , of the leading dairy states.
We , have man natural advan

THE WHITE LEGHORNS
Represent the, Highest Type of Egg-
Producing Fowl Admittedly
Unexcelled ae Layers.
(By Leo. J. Broosemer, Bureau of Ani
mal Industry, U. 8. Department of
; Agriculture.)
Every beginner thinks the hen prob
. lem Is a simple one. ' All of us thought
so, when we first contracted - the
chicken fever, and fell a prey to en
ticing statements in "get-rich-qulck"
pamphlets. - We built hen-houses after
our own design, purchased ten hens4
and a supply of food, and started, in
to fldbd the local egg market. To make
a short tale shorter, we failed. Why?
We had the right idea,, but the wrong
hens.
To those who are thinking of "keep
Ing a few hens," or to those who in-
- tend to build up a money-making egg
. business, a few facts about a breed,
.universally labeled, "egg-machines,"
will not go amiss. The egg business
may rightly be termed a manufactur
ing business. Hens are the machines.
Eggs are the products. The best ma
chines are . those which require the
least Investment, are kept up at the
least cost, and turn out the most sat
isfactory products. The Leghorn ben
seems to fill the bill.
Ninety per cent of the big egg farms
In this country are stocked with single-comb
white Leghorns. This is the
most powerful argument that can he
used ln favor of this breed for these
farms are operated by business men
who are looking for the greatest re
turns possible. Hence, they raise
white Leghorns, - which hatch more
easily than other breeds, begin to lay
earlier, and are non-sitters. The very
fact that Leghorns do mature more
quickly than other breeds means lesi
food, lees cost in building the machine
and getting ready for business. Lady
Leghorn has set the standard for
popular, profit-producing laying hens.
She is also noted for her adaptability
to climate. Her ancestors are sup
posed to have existed ln a semi-wild
state in Italy, lived on seeds, bugs,
and greens, stole their nests and were
as wild as our present day partridges.
The hardiness of Lady Leghorn and her
ability to adapt herself to the change
able climate and various altitudes of
Tennessee is due to the fact that the
temperature of the home of her wild
forebears ranged from below zero in
the mountainous regions, to 109 de
grees above zero during the hot sum
mer. ,
' A glance at her will show that she
Is built for laying eggs. She differs
in many details, from the meat pro
duce. Her body is longer and is
nicely placed on longer, trimmer legs.
Leghorns produce only white-shelled
eggs, which look and sell better than
any other kind. White-shelled eggs are
preferred in almost every market la
this country with the exception . of
Boston. -, Even there the preference
for brown eggs is diminishing. .
One reason for Lady Leghorn's re
markable laying capacity lies In her
unusual activity. When allowed free
range, she forages for a treat part of
her food. - She is not usually Inclined
to broodlness, and Instead of going
through long and melancholy periods
of moultlnjr she usually requires only
ninety days to don her new robe.
Altogether, Lady Leghorn seems to
have many virtues and few faults. In
addition to all her praotical values,
she is a "good looker" and graceful.
She has a coat that is white as snow;
conspicuous ruby-red jewel-like eyes;
a golden yellow beak, nicely curved,
and a comb worn to one side, as "chio"
as a new Spring bonnet.- Her move
ments are alert and buoyant Her con
sort, Mr. Leghorn, is the very essence
of vigor, sturdlness, and lustiness. In
short, the Leghorn is a comely, crea
ture a delight to the eyes.

realize that they must get the corn
crop off the land so that.they can sow
a cover crop to protect the land from
washing, and further that the tramp

weather is very injurious.
The most economic method of
preserving the corn crop is by put
