April 13, 20, 27, May 4. TRUSTEE'S SALE OF REAL ESTATE WHEREAS. JAMES J. CAGLE and his wife, DYE ANN FRANKLIN CAGLE, executed a deed of trust to M. F.

BIRMING HAM, as trustee to secure a promissory note described in said trust deed, which is record ed in the Register's Office of Madison County, Tennessee, In Trust Deed Book No. 283, at page 208, on tne real estate hereinafter described, to-wit: Situated, lying and being in the First Civil District of Madison County, Tennessee, and, BE GINNING at a stake in the east margin of the Old Jackson-Pin-son Gravel Road at J. W. Thom as' corner: runs thence in an eastwardly direction 181 feet to a stake; thence in a southerly direction and parallel with the Old Jackson-Pinson Road 427 feet to a stake on north edge of Thomas driveway; thence in a westwardly direction and paral lel with said driveway 222 feet to a stake on an eastwardly edge with the Old Jackson-Pinson Road: thence in a north wardly direction and parellel with the Old Jackson-Pinson Road 452 feet to the point of beginning. Containing 2 acres, more or less.

AND WHEREAS, default hav ing been made in the payment of said indebtedness and at the request of the owner and holder of said indebtedness, the undersigned will on Tuesday, May 29, 1962, at 12:00 o'clock noon, in front of the north door of the Court House in Jackson, Madison-County, Tennessee, expose for sale and sell at public outcry, to the highest and best bidder for cash, the above described property or real estate. All equity of redemption, homestead, dower and curtesy are expressly waived and the title to said real estate is believed to be good; however, the undersigned will sell and convey An estimated 70 to 75 per cent of the cotton acreage in Tennessee will be treated with a pre-emer gence herbicide this season, re ports Haywood Luck, U-T Exten sion assistant agronomist. With the shortage of labor, most farmers cannot afford Dot to use one of the recommended pre-emergence herbicides. Some producers have reported a 45 per cent reduction in cost of weed control by using chemicals. The use of pre-emergence herbicides is good insurance and releases la bor for other jobs or a few extra days of fishing.

Pre-emergence herbicides rec ommended for cotton are CIPC and diuron. CIPC can be obtained in granular form. Full instructions on the amount of materials to use for different soil types may be obtained from your county agri cultural agent. No special smoothing, of the seedbed is needed except when granular material is used. Cover open center press wheels with a zero pressure rubber tire or metal band to give a smooth surface.

To reduce hand thinning, cotton should be drilled or hill dropped to a stand. To eliminate weed problems on the side of the row, many farm- ers will be treating a band width wider than 12 inches this season. These producers feel the greater cost is justifiable, Luck says. To complete the weed control program on some farms, when the pre-emergence herbicides are no longer, effective, it may be necessary to apply post-emergence herbicidal oils or do some flam ing. B.

She was 89 years of age. Funeral services- will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Chapel of Smith Funeral Home with Rev. William Bates offiicating. Burial will be in Hollywood Cemetery. Miss Britton was born and reared in Carroll County near McKenzie, the daughter of the late John Britton and Mollie Calhoun Britton, and had lived in Jackson for the past 50 years.

For a number of years she was a semstress at The Sew ing Room and was a member of the Enon Baptist Church near McKenzie, Tenn. Survivors other than her sister, Mrs. Mitchell, are two oth er sisters, Mrs. Rosa Matkins of McKenzie and Mrs. Ethel Taylor of Newbern and two brothers, Virgil Britton and Rube Britton of McKenzie.

Her body will be at Smith Funeral Home until the funeral hour. Mrs. Longsfreet, Widow of General, Dies in Georgia MILLEDGEVELLE, Ga. (AP) Helen Dortch Longstreet, widow of Confederate Gen. James Long- street, fighter for things in which she believed, Southern beauty and World War airplane factory worker, is dead at 99.

She had hoped to reach 100 but the end came quietly Thursday in Milledgeville State Hospital. Mrs. Longstreet never liked to talk about her age, but her niece and only survivor, Mrs. R. H.

Rumph of Atlanta, said she was born in Carnesville, April 20, 1863. In failing health for 10 years, she entered the state mental hos pital in 1957. Doctors described her case as mild and said she seemed perfectly happy. Mrs. Longstreet attended Bre- nau College at Gainesville, and there met Longstreet daugh ter by his first wife, Marie Louise Garland who died in 1889.

On Sept. 8, 1897, she married Longstreet at the old governor's mansion in Atlanta. He was 76 and she 34. Her greatest fight was a battle to clear her husband "of any ac cusation wrongfully made against him that he failed to carry out Lee's orders at Gettysburg." She contended he had been cautious, nothing more. Longstreet was second in com mand to Lee.

He was de scribed as immovable in the battles of Williamsburg, First Manassas, Second Manassas and An-tietam. But a show of caution at Gettysburg drew the charge that he had ignored orders. He fell into virtual disgrace among southerners when he applied for a job with his cousin by marriage, Ulysses S. Grant. It was after the general's death in 1904 that Mrs.

Longstreet began a career which included the holding of more jobs than she could remember in later years. She was at one time a newspaper reporter, a freelance writer on politics, the postmistress of Gainesville, a Veterans Bureau employe, and a riveter in a B29 bomber plant. Her employment during World War as a riveter at the Bell bomber plant at Marietta, created a storm of protest by union organizers who called it a publicity stunt. But she stuck to the job for nearly two years and a sub fore man described her work as rank ing with the best done in the plant. Charges Are Dismissed NASHVILLE (AP) Charges that three Memphis liquor stores sold whisky below prices established by the 1959 "fair trade" law were dismissed Thursday by State Revenue Commissioner Hilton Butler.

Butler said he felt a question had arisen as the the methods "which were of necessity" used to obtain evidence. T'he department wfll always seek to keep its enforcement efforts on a fair and legally sound basis," he said. A state agent used a false iden tification card to purchase whisky during the investigation and told the stores he did not have enough money to pay tne full price. The stores against whom charges were dismissed were Liquor Store, charged with selling whisky 28 cents below the minimum required price; Leone's 56 cents below the required price; and Paul's $1.95 below the minimum.

Grain CHICAGO (AP) Improved sup port firmed up wheat futures in late dealings today on the Board of Trade, but the market otherwise was generally weak.

Brokers said demand for wheat included some short covering for the weekend but that it appeared to be largely buying by export interests. Tenders on May contracts in the pits contributed to weakness in other grains and soybeans. Rye, hardest hit, was down a cent or more at times on most contracts. Carlot receipts were estimated at: wheat 5 cars, corn 207, oats 6, rye none, barley 17, soybeans 7. Wheat closed cent a bushel higher to lower, May corn lower.
