A toll of 30 lives, be sides hundreds of injuries, is the latest report. From the reports in the pross dispatches the negro ih burdened with the responsibility in both. It has been only a year or so ago tljat conflicts occured in East St. Louis, Philadelphia and Fast Side New York. If all of these are justly chargcablo to the negro, thou there is a lack of understanding in tlm North between the whites and the ne groes that docs not exist in the South. In the South there are occasional conflicts, it is admitted, but there is a better understanding and the con flict is of shorter duration and at tended by far less of 'senseless savagery. Thero is a reason, to be sure, for these conflicts that would afford profitable study and observ ance on the part of both whites and blacks. All over the country complaint is being made at the high cost of liv ing. Those responsible for forcing higher and higher the necessities are inviting trouble. If trouble, ahonld it come, could ho laid at the doora of the guilty ones they would gat little sympathy—they deserve none. They are causing an uurost and dissatisfaction for the sako of filling their cofferß that, unless they deaiat, must force the government to take steps that should not be taken t' In times ot peace. President Wilson ib having all and more trouble than is necessary in securing the ratification of the Peace Treaty. There is a blind partisanship that is opposing Mr. Wilton's every move. These op-| ponents do not reproseut the senti , ment of the people in regard to t!ie treaty. The people want it settled, and it ia believed when they have the opportunity to speak and act that the obstructionists will bo sorely re buked. FARMERS' AND WOMEN'S IN STITUTES. At Stoney Creek Aug. 18, Hawfields Aug. 19. County Agent James I\ Kerr writing in regard to the Farmers' and Women's Institutes to be held at Stoney Creek, Monday, Aug 18th, and Hawfields, Tuesday, Aug. 10th, says: These institutes are held co operatively with the State De partment of Agriculture, the Ex periment Station and the Exten sion Service. It is desired to have them the best sittended institutes ever held in the county. This can be done only through the co-operation of the farmers of the county. Therefore he is hoping to have the active co-operation of everyone in securing a good at tendance at both of theso insti tutes and asks each one to speak to hla friends and urge them to attend. Mr. T. B. Parker, Director of Farmors' Institutes, says he ia desirous of seeing North Carolina take a decided forward step along all agricultural lines. She hits made rapid advauccs within the last few years, but we are not content with that. Our aims should be: more fertile and hotter cultivated farms, a better diversi fication of crops, mom and letter live-stock, an enlarged community splrtt, better schools, better home surroundings and a more profit able agriculture. We can all join him In this desire for better rural and agricultural conditions. So let our watchword be: Progress Let ns demonstrate this in every thing we undertake, including the Farmers'and Women's Institutes See to it that your pettgNe, men, women and children attend them. We especially want the women of the community to attend the Women's Institutes. Let us all take an interest in thein and help to make them worth while.

Features of Last Week -"Taming of The Shrew" this Week Cor. of The Gleaner. Chapel Hill, N. C , July 28.-*- The second institute for high school teachers ami principals, supervisors and superintendent* at the University of North Caro lina Summer School came to an end last week. There were -'l7 teachers and superintendents here for this conference, and a full program of the work was carried out. Prof. L. 1.. Friend, -high school inspector from West Vir ginia, was one of the special lec turers on high school problems. Members of the summer school faculty gave special courses for the superintendents in the teach ing of the various high school subjects. Many entertainments were offer ed the students during the past week. Two nights were-given to North Carolina folk plays, under the direction of I'rof. Frederick 11. Koch, and the summer school music festival was hold on Wed nesday and Thursday evenings. The s iloists who took part this year were Miss Dicie Howell, so prano, Miss Katlierine Johnson, alto, Mr. Sudwarth Frasier, tenor, and Mr. J. W. White, bass. A chorus of 00 voices sang the ora torio, Gaul's "Holy City," on Thursday night. Large crowds attended the musical programs both nights. The coming week will be fea tured by the presentation of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" on the outdoor stage in Battle Park. Rehearsals. for this play have beoti noing on for some time.

Miss.Doris Rosenthal will continue her lec tures on art and art appreciation during the coming week. The summer school attendance continues to grow. With th® 3.1 students of the summer law school, thero are now close to 1,0(X) stu dents on tlio. Hill. Most of the students this year have remained for the entire six weeks, and that has enabled tlio instructors to carry out their work in a more thorough-going manner. The stu dents seeking college credit this year number .'154, and there are also many graduate students. Dr. K. Van lltiskirk, of the I'nited States Public Health Ser vice, was one uf the lecturers here last week, lie discussed various problems of health and hygiene. The Y. W. C. A. has done much this summer to make the life of the summer school homelike for the women students. Miss Flsie 1!. Holler has been secretary of the organization, and under her direction many social occasioiftr have been arranged. Also special Bible study classes have been conducted. Prof. L. A. Williams, l'rof. K. C. Branson and Kov. W. D. Moss led these study groups. Discussion groups meet every Tuesday evening, and mid-week prayer meetings are held on Thurs day evenings. A tennis tourna ment for the women has recently been carried out successfully by the recreation committee. Get Ready to Grow Fall and Winter Vegetables Progressive Farmer. Now is the time to get ready for supplying the trade with fall and winter vegetables. These can ba put iu now, at least a good many of them can. -During late July rutabagas should be put in, and the ground should be prepared for a planting of turnips iu August anil September. In tlio lower part of the South and even well up into the middle part of the South the following vegetables can still be put in with a reasonable degree of assurance that they will mature before frost : Cucumbers, toma toes, beets, butter beans, pole licans, snap beans, Mexican Juno corn, etc. Also in the lower part of the South one can put iu dur ing this month lettuce, endive, cauliflower, celery, cabbage, col lards, etc. Another planting of cowpeas, especially of the black, eyed variety, should be put in, because these usually sell well iu a retail way in the tall and early winter, or just before cold weather sets in. In planting these fall vegetables keep in iniud that it is a little more difficult,to get a stand than iu the early spring, oil account of hoi weather and ofteu the lack of moisture. Therefore it is not only desirable but very necessary that the ground be thoroughlv pre pared and the cro|is put in iu the best possible shape. These pre cautions are absolutely? essential before anyone can succeed with fa'l vegetables. Iu additiou to this, the ground should be made |U.te rich indeed, because the hot summer sun and the shortage iu moisture must bo overcome by making the other conditions just as nearly ideal as possible. It is only by giving careful attention to these phases of growing a fall crop that olio can succeed In a big way. For a man reputed to be cold, President Wilson inspires a most jburningaud vehement wrath iu the breasts of his enemies. It in furiates them merely to see his picture. In case the Kaiser is found guilty, why not have Hiram John son and Air. Borah talk him to death? f ' Keep up the Cultivation. _ • Keep up the cultivation, ad monishes Sir. 0. 11. Willjams, Chief of the Division of Agronomy of* tlio Agricultural Extension Service. If thiH is not (lone the I crop ylcltlH are liable to be cut. Matty people discontinue the cul tivation of such crops an corn or cotton too early, and as generally one of the main limiting factors in the growth of these crops is moisture, the crop is liable to suf fer where this moisture is not properly cons' rved in the soil by continual cultivation. This is especially true when the season is dry: During the next thirty or lorty days crops will be growing mor > rapidly than at any other time, and w ill be making their greatest demand upon the reserve mois ture supply of the soil. To fully appreciate the import ance of this moisture, says Mr. Williams, it is only necessary to realize that for every good sized and well-dovelopod corn plant there will actually be required for its growth the taking np and transpiration of something like 75 gallons of water. The only place from which this water can be se cured is from that stored in the toil. Cultivation with cultivators by maintaining a dust mulch on the surface of the soil will cut oIT to a largo extent the evaporation of this moisture from the surface of the soH, therefore aiding in reserving it for the use of cropd. Again, cultivation will destroy grass and weeds which have start ed into growth and which them selves will take up, if allowed to grow, a largo amount of not only moisture, but also plant food, and thereby rob the crops of their supply of these. It is especially important to keep up the culti vation for some timo on soils that are very low in organic matter, that tend to bake after rains, or that are low in water-holding ca pacity, such as tlio coarse sands. County agents and teachers in many instances may thoroughly impress the importance of this matter apon farmers and pupils in rural schools by getting them to work out the following problem: If it requires 300 pounds of water to produce one pound of dry stalk of corn, including ears, how much water would be re quired by a corn crop per acre, assuming that each stalk with its ears weighs two pounds, anil that thero wore 7,2(X) stalks per acre. COMPLAINT ABOUT MATCHES. North Carolina Has Law Govern ing Sale Kaleigh, N*. C., July '29.—Nu merous complaints are coming from different sections of the State in regard to the character of matches being offered for -ale, and the State Insurance Commis sioner is directing the attention of wholesale dealers, brokers and merchants to the fact that while the State law provides that only safety matches as prescribed by the law can be sold in ( this State, it does not allow the placing upon the market of any but first-class matches. The Commissioner calls atten tion also to the fact that while this North Carolina statute allows only safety matches to be offered for sale, it also specifies that these matches must be of good material and manufactuie or else they be come unsafe. The Commissioner expresses the hope that the deal ers will see that the matches they offer for sale conform with the law both as to their safety type of manufacture, aud its to the ser vice quality of the steins, as well as the striking surface, and that it will not become necessary for him to invoke the law to stop con tinued Miles of inferior matches. The complaint being registered against matches, includes not only a disposition on the part of the striking surface to fail to strike promptly and adequately when passed over the safety strik ing surface, but also a tendency of the wood stem to split and snap off because it is too inferior to bear the' strain of the required str ike in the progress of igniting the match. All these defects are prohibited in tlio North Carolina statute and Commissioner Young is prepared to proceed against any dealers who continue offering matches that are defective iti any of these respects. 600 Acres Cabbage Seed Approximately (iiX) acres of cab bage seed are being grown this year iu the neighborhood of La Conner, Wash., the fields ranging from f> to lO acres, report special ists of the I'nitod States Depart ment of Agriculture.

Tic. »dv NECESSARY FEED FOR STOCK Animal* Help to Retain Fertility of Soil and Provide Profitable Uee for Roughage. (Prepared by the United Statee Depart ment ot Agriculture.) Now that farming 1* to to a peace-time basis, tbe United Stii ten department of agriculture be lieve* that man; loiid* formerly de voted to pasture or meadow bat re cently used for emergency grain pro duction should be reselded to grass. , The signing of the armistice found the United States with relatively large supplies of foods and relatively small supplies of feeds, with much land Im poverished by having been planted to grain year after year, and with a still i Raltc More Dairy Calves—the Nation Needs Them. Increasing demand for meat and fats. Numbers of all classes of live stoclc have been maintained. Those of swine and sheep have been Increased, the former largely, the latter slightly. But the quantities of forage and pasturage for live stock have been diminished. Sound agricultural practice de mands, the department thinks, the re establlahment of regular and satisfac tory rotations so that fertility may be restored and the live stock carrying capacity of the land Increased. Live stock, since It helps to retain fertility on the land, provides a profit able use for large amounts of rougli nge and gives employment to labor throughout the year, should And a place on a larger number of farms. Diversified farming should become more general, to the end that each farm shall produce the necessary food for Its family and the necessary feed for Its live stock. Loaa from preventable plant dis eases should be guarded against by seed treatment and spraying. Harvesting of fruits and vegetables before exposure to frost, and greater care during harvesting, packing, stor ing, and marketing, are urged, togeth er with continued organize*) efforts for the prevention and control of dis eases of animals. MORE LIVE STOCK PRODUCED Increase In Pork In West Virginia More Than Million and One-Half Pounds—Silage 4» Fed. (Prepared -by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) County agents of West Virginia, In carrying out the program of the Unit ed States department of agriculture and the state agricultural college to Increase food production, last year en couraged the farmers of the state to keep additional sows, the result be ing that these sows produced 13,722 pigs, which Increased West Virginia's pork production by more than a mil lion and half pounds. The value of good blood In live stock breeding has been one of the things particularly em phasized by the agents and thereby 10,44(1 cowa were bred to registered sires Instead of scrubs, which meant an Increased value at birth of calves of at least $104,4(10, It Is estimated. The agents report that 7,520 cattle were fed silage for the Iftst time last winter with n resultant saving of not less than $37,800 to their owners. Ewes to the number of 0,805 were bred to registered rams Instead of scrubs with a prospective Increased value of the lamb crop of upward of SB,OOO. Sheep numbering 4,225 and valued at more than $21,000 were saved from the rav ages of parasites through the activi ties of the various county agents. SUMMER FORAGES FOR COWS Plan Recommended by Missouri Col lag* Expert Calla for Beading of Budan Grass. A good generpl plan recommended by Prof. Swett, of Missouri Agricul tural college, for providing late pas ture for cows 'la to plant Sudan grass •bout June 1, at the rate of sixteen pounds to the acre. This ahould yield ten to fifteen tons to the acre and ahould be ready for feeding from about July 15 to August 1. An early matur ing variety of aoy beans planted at the rate of thirty pounds to tho acre May 80 will be available for feeding fronj about August 1 to 20. A good north ern variety of corn planted about the middle of May af the rate of six quarts to the acre will become avail able about August 10 and can be fed whenever needed. The second crop of Sudan grass will be ready to cut about August 29 to September 1. Cow peaa planted at tha rat* of five pecks per acre about July 1 may be fed from ahoflt August 25 to September 10. After this time field corn may be nsed at any time. Sorghum crops give good results during the late summer.

MADE BY SCOTT A BOWVB MAXXBS or SCOTTS BMUUWN CATTLE SCAB IS CONTAGIOUS * Dlaease of Bkln Which Affecta All A* Imals Can Ba Eradicated by Dip ping and Bpraylng. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Small Insectlike parasites, commonly known as mites, are responsible for cattle scab, a contagious skin disease nlTectlng cattle of all ages and condi tions. There are several forms of the disease, known by such names as "scab," "mange" and "Itch." Though the disease Itself may not cause death directly, It Is responsible for serious losses by causing a shrinkage in the weight of animals, failure of young stock to thrive and gain weight nor mally and by Increasing the death rate of poorly nourlshed.anlmals of poor vi tality, especially range cattle exposed to Inclement weather. Cattle scab can be eradicated by dipping or spraying, dipping being the most reliable meth od, and lime-sulphur, ntrotln and crude petroleum dips can all be used with success. In the western part of the United States, especially where cattle graze on the open range, the losses caused by common scab have been a serious drawback to the live stock Industry. It has been greatly reduced and brought under control, but has not been entirely eradicated from the herds of the Western states, and It Is Important that control measures be practiced continually to completely eradicate the disease and prevent It from again becoming prevalent The mite which causes common cat tle scab may attack any part of the body covered thickly with hair, but the first lesions usually occur on the withers, on top of the neck just In front of the withers, or around the root of the tall. From these points It spreads over the back and sides, and Cattle Being Put Through a Dipping Vat to Rid Them of Bmail Para sites. Unless checked It may involve prac tically the entire body. The mite* at tack the skin to obtain food, and In so doing, probably Introduce a poison ous secretion. A slight Inflammation Is caused, followed by Intense Itching. In the advanced stages of the disease large scabs are formed which fre quently are stained with blood. The disease should never be allowed to reach this stage, however. In the early stages It yields feadlly to proper treat ment, and heavy losses can be avoided only if the disease Is taken In hand early. While cattle scab can be cured by spraying If the work Is done proper ly, this method Is recommended only when the number of cattle to be treat; ed Is not large enough to Justify the owner In providing a dipping vat. Dip ping, however, which consists of Im mersing (nilmals r tn a medicated liquid that will kill the parasites, Is the only method recognized by the bureau of animal Industry In the official treat ment of scabby cattle. All animals In the herd should be treated, regardless of theliumber showing lesions of scab. One dipping generally Is sufficient for cattle which have not been exposed to Infection but upon which the disease has not yet become apparent. Infect ed cattle require two or more dippings, according to the variety of the disease present. uiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiitt f LIVE STOCK NOTES f niimiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiß It pays to care well for any animal we keep. • • • Succulent feed la Important any sen&on of the year. • • • From nn economical point of view.

Verd V. Mitchell, in Tho Progres sive Farmer. One of the best uses to which I have found the soy bean adapted is in combination with late corn for "hogging down." After har vesting my oat crop I always plant part of the stubble land to corn and soy beans. I break the stub ble land good and harrow, then lay o(I rows with luiddle-buster about 6 feet apart, running planter immediately behind. When over the fields put on a five-hole plate on an Oliver planter and drill beans mid-way between corn rows. Tho beans beiug an upright grower, soon get, up out of the way of corn cultivation. When beans mature, which is about the time I want to push my hogs, I turn in on them. The soy bean should be more generally grown in the Middle South esprecially, and if one will only give them a trial he will need no of their niche in Southern agriculture.
