They arc worth- but for the fact that assembled passed more than each, while Ohio and Illinois have added hundreds of acts to their statute Is there any good all ibis law- making Are so new laws needed for the government of the people It Is perfectly safe to say that per cent, of legislation could be dispensed with to the very great advantage of the public. And it may predicted with a good deal of assurance that not one- halt, probably no, one fourth, of the new laws will stand the test of the courts. Many of them were hastily drawn railroaded through assemblies without anything like a careful digestion by persons competent to Judge of their constitutionality.

Every new law of any makes new litigation, which means more fees for the lawyer, fifteen thousand new laws in two years therefore, presents quite a pleasing prospect to the profession.

In passion fur something new easy certain Chicago teachers deny that study should ever seem forbidding to but that it should be joyous alluring. They built up a system an basis of kindergarten principle. As explained by Superintendent Speer, of the Third School district, it is a of and or, in the words of common of f, bearing and doing.

C, April -0. A TO Owing to the extreme scarcity of labor we would advise all farmers to arrange their tobacco rows so every eighth row will be five feet wide, by so doing you can use a tobacco truck thus house your tobacco with much leas labor and cost. There were some trucks used in certain sections last season for housing tobacco, and we Bud in every section where the truck was used there will be a great demand for them this orders for several hundred trucks have already been and many- more will doubtless come in yet. If you will lay your rows as stated above it will take no extra manure but little more laud, and if you do use the truck you tote your tobacco along the wide row much i ft if you are scarce of help you use a truck. We arc going to be head- quarters for tobacco trucks of best style. A. G Cox Mfg Co. W. T. Lipscomb. of Greenville, was here a short while yesterday.
