TENN.—The twenty-first annual National Dairy Exposition will be held In 'connection with the Trl- State Fair at Memphis, Tenn., October 14-22, Inclusive. The coming of the National Dairy Show to the South la |an occasion for great rejoicing on the part of dairymen and farmers In the Southern states who have made such outstanding advances In the develop ment of a greater dairy industry in re cent years. - ■' The coming of the National Dairy Show to the South means that the country at large at last recognizes that the South really has developed a dairy industry. The conditions of soil, climate, etc., N are so favorable that the industry is sure to enjoy greater growth, and the fact is recognized by the men who are leaders in the dairy business throughout the country; hence, the* decision of the National Dairy Association to hold the twenty- first annual dairy exposition at Mem phis. The dairy industry is the leading branch of American agriculture and It Is most reassuring to Southern agri culture that dairying Is rapidly com- ing to be the leading branch of agri culture In this region. Dairying Supreme Court. The National Dairy Show is the su preme court, so to speak, of the dairy Industry, and In the show there is bad every year a round-up of national dairy Interests, bringing together pro gressive dairymen from all sections of the country,'and picturing every branch of dairying from the cow on the farm through to the consumer of milk and dairy products in the vari ous forms in which they are prepared for final consumption.' Dairymen and farmers who would improve their herds and Increase their profits al ways find the exposition of real value and the coming of the show to the South this year affords Southcrc dai rymen and farmers an unusual oppor tunity and at a time when they are best prepared to take full advantage of the benefits to be derived from at tending the show and studying the exhibits. The exhibits of pure-bred dairy cat tle from the leading herds of the coun try which will be competing for prises In the show ring will Include more than one thousand head. These cat tle represent the best of all of the dairy breeds that the world has ever seen. A visit to the show and a study of the exhibits of pure-bred dairy cat tle should prove s tborough-going ed ucation to the dairymen and farmers as to just what the best cows that have been developed are like. The show will also Ihclude an ex hibit of good grade dairy cows with production records; the kind of cows that the dairymen and farmers must depend upon for constant profitable production and for their £ream check or milk check each week. Another important, interesting and t'istructivf: exhibit will be the young stock shown by the club boys and girls from msny states The club exhibit will illustrate development of dairy ing and the improvement of cattle re- ishUlng from the clafr work and that of health values of dairy products of ev ery kind r “ It has been conceded by every- on4 who has given the matter, serious thought that Southern agriculture may be further diversified or mixed to the great advantage of the entire South. Dairying Is • line which may safely be added on practically every farm and the industry in the South expanded with profit*. Farmers who desire to diversify their farm activities can se cure valuable first-hand knowledge about the dairy Industry by attending and studying the exhibits at the Na tional Dairy Show. Manufacturers and handlers of.dairy products will also find the very latest devices and meth ods op display In the show and, there fore, the Importance of the show to every one. Including even the con sumer of dairy products, cannot be overstated. Every man and woman in the South, regardless of what their immediate In terests may be, will be benefited by attending and studying the exhibits, which will be found in the National Dairy Show. Memphis is a splendid Southern city, ,with ample hotels for taking care of the crowds that will .visit the show. The people‘’of the South will un doubtedly take advantage of their op portunity this year to see the great dairy industry on display. Reduced rates will be In effect on all of the railroads and because of the nearness to the people of the South, .the dairy show may be visited and studied without great expense to any one. Parties are already being or ganized In many communities of the South, and it appears from the in terest and activity shown that there will be a large and representative at tendance from the South and that the Memphis show may be better attended and more closely studied by dairymen and farmers and those Interested la Southern agricultural improvement than any held In the past.

Cow demonstrations will be an in teresting and highly educational fea ture of the show. These demonstra tions will be given by men who know ;and under the auspices of the various breed associations. Farmers and dai rymen who see these demonstrations will be able to go back home and use the knowledge obtained effectively tn selecting milk cows for their dairy iherds whether doing dairying on a large scale or only keeping a few on the farm. The National Dairy Council whose exhibit will be highly educational, ex plaining the food and health value of dairy products, will be another feature jthat Is well worth while. The boys’ judging contest, when the farmers of the future will compete In jjudglng dairy animals, will be inter esting and instructive and one of the most attractive features of the dairy show. The farmers’ judging contest $a also instructive and will prove of real value,to the dairyman or farmer who keeps cows whether he keeps one or a herd. Studies in dairy barns and outfitting dairy farms will be on exhibition and will offer exceptional opportunities to those interested In’ the dairy cow to determine the equipment needed and the arrangements of barns, equipment, etc., for greater convenience and most economical dairy production. The National Dairy Show is, in fact, of very great interest and value to all classes of people, whether farmers, city people or what not, because it em bodies the latest tacts and information which science and good practice have evolved with respect to dairy cattle breeding, care, feeding and the pro duction of dairy products; of the prep aration of dairy products tor coosump* don and with respect to the toed sad A TLANTA, OA.—Landowners of the South hsve In their standing for ests and cut-over areas one of the tlon’s greatest sources of potentla wealth. Though the greater part of the South’s virgin forests have been cut away, the lands on which they ■tood can still be made to yield continuing and growing income from timber for building and manufacturing and from naval stores If proper meth ods are . adopted to safeguard the young growing trees to which the South must look for Its lumber in the future. The trees in the original Southern forests represented many of the most valuable varieties known in this coun try. Due to the long growing season, abundant mooisture and natural fer tility of the Boll, tree growth In the South is very much more rapid than to other sections. Therein ties the South’* greatest advantage- 4»- foe Industry. • * Fire Greatest Hazard. ' Fire has always been the greatest menace to forests and the greatest ob stacle In the way of making the Sooth a great perpetual source of timber sup ply lies In the thoughtless attitude oi! so many .of our people with respect to fires burning in the woods. Because the South has been im mune from spectacular forest fires, with attendant loss of life and threats of destruction to cities and tofrns, our people have overlooked the fact that the South is now suffering an annua loss, running into untold figures, as the result of fires which dgmage ma ture trees and kill the young seed lings. This damage results In some cases from casual fires, but most of all from the wide-spread custom of burning the woods annually to provide pasturage for range cattle. These annual burn ings retard the growth of the large trees and cause defects which greatly reduce the value of the timber cut from them, but do their greatest dam age on cut-over lands where the grow ing trees are still young. _ Since this destruction is of. future rather than present values, It has not attracted the attention It deserves. The loss is actually growing greater every year as the area of original timber still standing la gradually diminished. Southern .Conducts Experiment.
