Matches and Fires.
The actual fire loss in the United
States due to matches is reported to
average S100.000 a day. or 836.000,
000 annually. This is said to the loss
reDresented in insurance. This is
about 12 per cent of the total fire loss
The indirect loss represented in ex
penses invilved in the maintenance of
fire departments, water supply, etc., is
fully equal to the direct loss, especial
ly so II tne loss in Kiuea ana injureu
and interruption to business, etc., is
taken into consideration. The total
economic loss from this one cause is,
therefore, worthy of serious considera

How can it be abated! No such tre

in other countires, nor would be tol

Nothing can be gained by reviving
the discussion of the race question.
People who are usuallly conservative
and sensible on other subjects often
lose their reason when the race ques
tion is considered. The negro is a
citizen amoung us. Society and the
State are interested in his industry
and fregality. We need give more
attention to the ways and means of
removing temptations and giving the
negro a better chance to raise his
children to be peaceful, industrious
citizens.
Experience teaches that the farm
is the place for the industirous negro
of the South. Here are fewer temp
tations; here is less competition for
his labor; here is where his labor will
count for more and bring him in
greater returns. It is our duty to
foster industrial education for the ne
gro race, encourage home ownership
and remove the evils that corrupt so
ciety and debauch the negro as . well
as the white man of our country who
yields.
The States of the South and the
Southwest have in most instances
borne heavy burdens for the educa
tion of the negro, but too often th
mistake has been made in the caarac-
ter of instructions given. The neero
needs industrial training; he should
be taught agriculture and mechanic
arts. We still permit evils that cause
crime and then wonder why it is that
mere is crime.

Spread Manure Often.
Don't wait for intervals of several

If the idea is firmly imbedded in the

manure in which there is a large
amount of vegetable refuse can be al-
lowed to lay longer in a heap than the
manure that is almost wholly that of
animal origin. Indiana Farmer.
