More likely, he would reject the farm proposition altogether, and take a polite clerkship at twelve dollars a week, or a place in a factory at ten dollars. Our national tendency is to get away from the land. In ninety- six per cent, of the population lived on farms. Now, seventy per cent, of the population are not engaged in farming. Americans are quitting the land as if they had measured its and found them insufficient. The fact is that Americans never dreamed of the possibilities of land. Old as the earth is, Americans don't know what it can do. They regard Mother Earth as a lean mother. They believe much land must be used to get a little living. They believe all land is a yeast only a little witness the abandoned farms to be found in New York and New England. Americans are wrong. A little land is enough tor a living. All land id good. Crops can be grown on sand if the grower knows how to grow them. No farms ever become useless. It is the farmer who becomes useless. Any land can be kept all that Ponce de Leon wanted to be young. Broadly speaking no land in America ever produced for a year a tenth of the wealth that it is capable of every year. If railroads were run as poorly as farms are tilled, a passenger would require a week, instead of eighteen hours, to go from Chicago to New York. Lack of standing is the rule on the farm. There are exceptions to prove the rule. Here's Your Chance To Get a Pair of DUCHESS TROUSERS Absolutely Free Arc you a Good Guesser This keg of nails is in our window just as you see it here.

In a material widening of the peanut market. Furthermore, it must be remembered that the growing of peanuts for three or four years on land invaded by the weevil will tend to exterminate the pest by in route thus opening the way for the return of such areas to cotton growing. At all events, the entrance of the small boy's joy into the Louisiana station bodes no for the all-conquering boll Observer. The Assassin of The Maine. Col. Jasper E.

It is pointed out that at present only civil action can be brought against offenders the Holy Sabbath and, while method of breaking up lawlessness could be made effective it is not an adequate remedy. Ministerial associations are request ed to take a hand in the- movement for more effective and comprehensive Sunday observance legislation. Every minister of the state is asked to preach at least one sermon on the importance of proper observance of the Sabbath day. The great majority of North Caro- are strong believers in strict observance of Christian Sabbath, and the fact that Sunday has been set at naught in certain quarters Is a matter generally ed. Here is a religious bodies to take part in, and in theme for sermonizing. In our rapid development let us not forget to respect that set apart as holy. It is probable that the next will be urged to make Sabbath desecration a misdemeanor with heavy penalty and when this is done officers of the law can make more headway in breaking up all sorts of abuses which The Alliance calls upon each com- to express itself to the end that strong pressure be brought to bear upon legislators.

The proper thing the sane, sensible thing for farmers to do, is to study conditions fro their individual point of view and plant the tobacco crop in proportion the evidence of demand to them from the sale of their own tobacco.
