IN the past the per cent of

The college has been developing lend-

The worst part of the high school
from the farm boy's standpoint was

and farm work In particular. The
boys and girls were encouraged to

might get through life more easily,

It has become plain, however,
that a school located on a block of
land In the heart of a city hope
to teach agriculture with the greatest
degree of success. With that
has come the secondary
school. Such schools are all too
few as yet, but their numbers are in-
creasing rapidly as the demand for
them grows. Some are supported by
the counties, some by the suites and
some privately. Some of the
national and preparatory schools have
been very successful In teaching
culture. Georgia has eleven district
agricultural schools that ore doing
a great work In the rank
and file of the future of the
state. Minnesota and Nebraska have
schools of agriculture connection
with their agricultural colleges. These
are doing good work, but they are
reaching only a small proportion of
the farm boys and girls. One such
school to a state Is not enough.
The ideal school Is located
away from heart of city. It
has a liberal piece of land In
with it To be successful It must
be surrounded by enough of a farm
to give It a flavor. As a rule
these secondary schools are doing
their work well; They have
cut out the classics and the dead
languages. They have substituted
studies that help to fit the boys and
girls for life on the farm. A large
share of the study of books Is done
with and study of living
things substituted. The schools are
well equipped with laboratories. The
student works with corn, scoring,
placing and testing. Judging corn la

engaged in. Even more Interesting Is

Few of the schools can afford to
keep a complete line of live stock,
but neighboring farmers are always
ready to supply the deficiency. Then
there are the machinery laboratories,
where the boys learn some of the
simpler principles of mechanics as
plied to farm machinery. It puts a

given something of history, for no

I often see sketches in your paper
on good roads. Some have one idea
and some another. I would like to
give my views on the subject.
If we could have our
proved without bonds, which I think
could be done, it would save us from
a bonded debt. Just suppose that we
were to issue of bonds. The
interest at per cent, would be
per year. Why not tax the
for that amount and spend it on
the Then in the course of
five or ten years, with the help of
the convicts and the road overseers,
the roads could be made good. Then
we would have the with-
out the great debt lo tax the people
on as long as the world stands, which
we could not hope to get rid of before.
We already have too much bonds,
and I am against bonding our county
and taxing the people for no use. It
seems to me that come people never
think what it will cost nor how much
will be thrown away if we should is-
sue these bonds that so much has
been said about. I am afraid they
and their children both will be sorry
some day that they ever heard of
bonds if we should get them.

Tribute to What the Farmers Con-
Tobacco Co. is Doing
Editor
I feel like taking off my hat to you
that article telling the good of
i he Farmers Consolidated
Co. in trying to let the people know
is doing in the tobacco world,
etc. Also am glad you said some
good thing of Mr. O. L. who I
believe is trying to Inform the
co farmer of the fact that it is to
their advantage not to over produce
if they expect fair prices. I have
been at times right lonesome, as there
is no one out near me that to
the Consolidated Co. As I would look
out early in the morning in the first
part of the tobacco selling season
and see dozens of loads going by
headed for Farmville, it was enough
to make a fellow lonesome, but it is
DOt so now. The tide has turned
toward Greenville and all is lovely
and bright. The Greenville ware
housemen and buyers too, must have
realized that Greenville would drop
to about sixth place if something was
not done, and they have gone to work
and are selling tobacco in the
and are setting a pace for
and Wilson, and leaving
Farmville far behind. She is not
even in the race. for the
Greenville market. It is a humming.
A strong pall, a long pull and a pull
all together will keep Greenville In
the lead.
The Farmville union is raging now
out our way, but so far as I see things
the Farmers Consolidated Tobacco
Co. is a farmers union and is as good
as any farmer's organization, if men
were loyal, as they will have to be if
the union ever accomplishes any-
thing.

Electrical Connections.
In a delayed telegram due to south-
communication being broken by
the severe Mr. W. L. Brown
received information this morning
that his son, Mi. Brown, was
killed Tuesday afternoon in
Fla. The only particulars given
in the message was in effect that a
severe storm was prevailing there,
and while Mr. Brown was making
electrical connections he was killed.
Mr. Brown was an electrician and
worked for a large phosphate com-
in Mulberry. His father wired
instructions for tho body to sent
home, but up to this writing no fur-
information has been received.
The news of the tragic death of this
young man has filled many
here at his home with Badness. He
had a host of friends and was held In
high esteem. He was years of
and is survived by his father, Mr. W.
Brown, one sister, Mrs. W. L.

Whit Brown. All hearts out in

curred
Owing to some of
trains the body of Mr. Zeno Brown,
was sent from Mulberry. Fla., Fri-
day morning, did not reach Green-
ville until Sunday evening, and the
funeral took place this afternoon at
o'clock. Mr. Lester Savage, who
worked for the same company as Mr.
Brown and who accompanied the re-
mains home, says that the accident
occurred last Tuesday afternoon.
The storm had played havoc with
electrical wires and Mr. Brown was
out at work on these to get
restored as fast as possible.
He was up a pole making
when a live wire struck him
across the breast, and it was so
charged that the shock killed him
instantly.
It was due to the storm that he

the large attendance at the first
ion prayer meeting, held in the Pres-
church Wednesday night, in
preparation for the meeting to be
held here by Dr. William Black, be-
ginning the 13th of November, was a
strong indication of the interest our
people of all denominations feel in
the approaching revival. This first
service was conducted by Rev. J. H.

need of church members first getting

ex-Gov. T. J. Jarvis, and the union

case of Charlton is taking a long
course. There is no
question to be solved, though it is
a serious one, being of just as much
importance to society as to Charlton
and his family, however. Yet weeks
have already and there is no
final decision. This case has not

little older than the Charlton crime,

quickness and the sureness with
which England moved in capturing

not been sufficiently developed

quickness with which a jury was ob-

big murder trial ever held in this

I have found the Mexican people

They live here very much like
they do in the States. I'll say for
the benefit of the ladies, that they,
too, wear puffs, rats, etc., in their
hair. That was one of the first
things I noticed with the women. They
do not wear hats very much. Some
of the girls do. but most all the older
women wear silk scarfs of bright
colors and black. Their clothing is
very much like our own.
Now for the benefit of the men. let
me say that we have a goodly

The natives as a whole seem to be
what we would call the second class,
however we have some very

school is a doctor and teems to know

have other wealthy families

most of the nights are delightful,

Some of my friends have asked me
about the fruit. No, we are not in
the midst of the fruit belt, but w;

want it. That is one of the blessing
we have. I said one. but not tho

they are numberless.

an hour there we sailed around the
point and went ever to a bank and
gathered some of the most beautiful
coral and shells I have ever seen.
The time came all too soon to re-

homeward. On our way home Mr.

a bargain which was. he was to

abode of witches, ghosts and spooks.
The color scheme decorations
were yellow and black, and there were
features of these everywhere, with a
mingling of autumn leaves, all kinds
of lanterns, pumpkin heads, black
cats, bats and owls. A In the
society hall was a bank of cotton
plants with open bolls, stalks of
and pumpkin heads through whose
grinning faces lights shone.
When th-; ghosts appeared about
o'clock there was a ring of mer-

There was also in this room the

was in charge of Miss Ethel Out-

In one end of the hall was a flower
booth, presided over by Miss
Tucker.
In a nook at the head of a stair-
way was a den where Misses
Mary Cotton Johnson, Rosa Ontario,
