Kime How To Build a Great-State ' The first thing needful in building a great civilization in North Carolina is to relieve our possibilities, to real ise that we have yet but a State in the making, a pioneer Commonwealth a State larger in area, be it remem bered, than England or Scotland or Greece, and which may well achieve, in the providence of God, a civiliza tion as rich, varied and historic as theirs. That is the faith that I should like us to cherish. We must ream the great dream. We must behold the land that is very far off. All. great achieve ments is built on great aspiration. No medieval cathedral ever lifted its pire8 towards heaven or awed the spectator by the solemn vastness of its interior, no Taj Mahal in far-away India ever grew into a beauty almost divine, no master's hand "rounded Peter's dome, and groined the alsTes of Christian Rome," until first the dynamic, irresistable power of a great PRINTING Puzzle No. 18 1 Charlotte, N.

So those of us, sons and daughters of North Carolina, we who were nur tured at her bosom and who love her with a passionate love, we who would build here a rich and beautiful, a puissant and fruitful civilization we must first of all electrify our people with the driving power of a great ideal. We must hitch our wagon to a star. We must believe ttiat no civ ilization that men anywhere have 1 known is greater than we can build here in our own beloved home State. j From an address by Clarence Poe be-' fore the North Carolina Conference for Social Service.

This is aa organiza tion that is almost indispeasible if a town is to be made attractive and kept so. Th vooA which the Federal Farm Loan Act is to accomplish for the North Carolina farmers is evident from a report just received from the sunerintendent of the Credit Unions. The North Carolina farmers apply for two million dollars of loans. The decrease in the number of sheep is said to be caused by the action of owners -who are disposing or their flocks in order to buy cattle. In most cases the reason is not because of greater profits in handling cattle, but because the rapidly changing condi tions on the open ranges, where sheep have been handled in the past, make it increasingly difficult to hnd feed for this class of stock during the months when deep mow prohibits erazinv an Ike national forests. Acting on the recommendation of the Secretary or Agriculture, Dasea on a field of classification by tne roresc service, the President has issued proclamation hy which 40,160 acres ate eliminated from the Crook National Forest, Arizona.

Never a Time in Its History When the Country Was So Well Prepared, Monetarily, to Meet Any Emergency. There never yet bus been a sugges tion of war in this country, or an ap proach of war, which did not bring forth In congress a flood of bills for the unlimited Issue of government But currency. The present occasion Is no exception to the rule. But there has never been a time In the whole history of the American na tion when such proposals could be so wanton and so utterly without excuse, even from the flutist point of view, as they are now. The country fairly riots In the uhuiidiince of a circulating me dium. Its bunks nre carrying some $."i0O,000,0JO more In cash than they were carrying ouly two yeurs ago. The people are currying around In their pockets for day-to-duy use much more than ?3X,0A,000 above what they were carrying two years ago. The present per capita circulation of $43.50 Is in excess of $8 more than at the outbreuk of the European war. It Is more than double what It was lo the silver and flat campaign year of 1896 and more than double what It was at the height of the paper-money era of the Civil war. And It Is now mostly gold, wheras It was mostly paper and depreciated sliver In 1896 and flat pa per In 1SC3. If this Is not enough, there remain to.be availed of the largely un touched resources of the. Federal Re serve banks for the Issue of a sound gold-convertible currency amounting to nearly a billion dollars. The flat-money proposers of this time merit the contemptuous neglect ft congress, and are llkely'to get It tit iew York World, ' "Southern Domination." The terrible thing about "Southern domination" In our government Is not the fact. If It be a fact, but the indif ference to It of the North. The Chi cago Tribune went to the trouble of writing a letter to every senator and representative at Washington, showing not only how the disfranchisement of negroes gave the South an nnfalr rep resentation In congress and In the elec toral colleges, but also depleting "graphically how the South, domlnat Ing congress, has contrived to Impose taxes bearing more heavily upon the North than the South while carrying out tremendous pork-bp.rrel raids on the national treasury." What was the result? Of the ten senators from New York, New Jersey. Delaware, Pennr- vanla. and West Virginia, comprising the East outside of New England, Just three replied. Two of these were Re publicans, sad said that they would work for the reform. One waa a Demo crat, who was non-committal. The representatives did even worse. Less than a fourth of the 08 responded, 14 favorably, one unfavorably, and nine - non-comnilttally. Seven of ten senators and T4 of 08 representatives asteep at the twitch ! The worst of It Is that other sections of the1 country displayed no great enthusiasm, either. And Penrose, who "assumed leader ship' of the movement In this group of states, was at Harrlsburg, engrossed la a fight over a ver' different sort of domination. President Knew Situation, It occurs to the New York World to say that "It Is doubtful If many Americans today regret that the Per shing force Is out of Mexico, or that the I.atln-Amerl lean republics are the United States' friendly toward That Is a backward look worth tak ing, because It places a troublesome problem In the right perspective. Sane persons, with the slightest understand ing of the topography of Mexico, and sense of what an attempt "to clean it up" would mean In the way of unlfy Ing that country against such an effort, are glad that President Wilson has stood as a friend to Mexico so far as this has been permitted to him. No one will doubt, either, thnt national preparedness litis lu-eu advanced by our vexing Mexican troubles. There Is no question that the president was knowing to many thing of which his critics were ignorant, and so looked farther ahead than they Causes of Victory. "I have studied the result In the presidential election," said a western senator. "In my opinion, the victory of the president was due, first, to the very serious split between the Pro gressives and Republicans; secondly, to the conviction among the women voters that the president hml kept the country out of war, and thirdly, to an appreciation of the progressive legis lation enacted by n IVmocisiic con Kress."

HOW MICH SEED SHOT I I) Hi: rK! in a family r Some Advice About Amount of Seed Needed for Small Family Advice By I'. S. Kxperts for the All-the-Vear Garden Washington, March 2". The hot bed and the cold frame are the gar dener's greatest aids in raising earlier crops. The hotbed enables him to plant seed and produce seedlings long before the seed planted out of doors has begun to germinate. The cold frame enables him to get the seed lings produced in the hothouse grad ually accustomed to outdoor conditions and to raise these into strong, stunry planting stock by the time the garden is ready for them. The cold frame is used in hardening the plants tnat have been started in the hotbed or in mild climates for starting plants be fore the seeds can be safely planted in the open. Resetting plants from a hot bed into the cold frame gives them a better root system and makes them stockier and more valuable for trans planting in the open ground. In the extreme south, the cold frame much more extensively used than the hotbed, but each has its place in garden economy. The following sug gestions for constructing and handling hotbeds and cold frames so as to hur ry crops are made by the garden spe cialists of the United States depart ment of agriculture: The Hotbed Locate the hotbed in some sheltered but not shaded spot which has a south ern exposure. 1 lie most convenient size is a box-like structure six feet wide and any multiple of 3 feet long so that standard 3x6 feet hotbed sash may be used. The frame should be 12 inches high in the back and o inches on the front. This slope is for the pur pose of securing a better angle for the sun's rays and should be faced toward the south. The hotbed not only must collect aay heat it can from the sun, but also most generate heat of its owa from fermentation in fresh manure. Fresh horse manure, free from stable litter, is best for generating heat. If the hotbed is to be an annual ar- fair, make an excavation 18 inches to 2 feet deep, about 2 feet greater in length and width than the lrame car rying the sash. Line the excavation with-plank or with a brick or con crete wall. A drain to carry, off sur plus water is essential. After a suf ficient amount of fresh horse manure has been accumulated, fill the pit, and while it is being filled tramp the manure as firmly and as evenly as possible; when the ground Jevel ta' reached place the rrame inToation and bank the sides and ends with ma nure. Place about 3 inches of good garden loam on top of the manure in side the frame and cover it with the sash. After the heat has reached its . maximum and has subsided to between 80 and 90 degrees F., it will be safe to plant the seeds. Select the plump est, ireshest seed ootainuoie. use standard varieties and .get them from reliable seed houses. Keep the bed partially dark until the seeds germinate. After germination, however, the plants, will need all the light possible, exclusive of the direct rays ef the sun, to keep them growing rapidly. This is a crisis in plant life and ven tilating and watering with great care are of prime importance. Too close Dlantinsr and too much heat and water cause the plants to become spindling. Water the plants on clear days, in tne morning, and ventilate immediately to dry the foliage and to prevent mildew. I he told frame The cold frame, so useful in harden ing plants started in the hotbed and for starting plants in mild climates, is constructed in much the same way as the hotbed, except that no manure is used, and the frame may be cover ed either with glass sash, or with can vass. Cold frame may be built on tne surface of the ground, but a more per manent structure suitable for holding plants over winter will require a pit 18 to ZA inches aeep. ine coia irame should be filled with a good potting soil. The plants should have more ventilation in the cold frame, but should not receive bo much water. It is best to keep the so.il rather dry. 4 In transplanting, remember that plants usually thrive better if trans planted into ground that has been freshly cultivated. Transplanting to the open field is best done in cool, cloudy weather, and in the afternoon. This prevents the sun's rays from causing the plant to lose too much moisture through evaporation. In transplanting, the frardener will find a child's express wagon an excellent trolley tray for bedding out his seed' lings. Wooden Vessels The Shipping Board is considering the building of a large number of small wooden vessels to carry supplies to Europe. It is contended that a great swarm of these smaller carrieis could convey a very large total of food or munitions, and their very number would tend to baffle the effective op erations of the sea bandits. It would require as much time, energy and am munition to sink one of these smaller wooden ships as to sink a liner ana the loss of one of them would be in finitesimal as compared with the great er ship, suggests the Baltimore Sun. While one or a dozen of them were being pursued a hundred might slip by. The submarine would be exhaust ing itself in potting a few ducks whi'e great flocks escaped it altogether. The smaller wooden ships can be built not only more cheaply but more exne.li- tiously than steel ones at present. since shipbuilding yards devoted to steel tonnage are already working their full capacity. Thev would offer a small target, would be faster than the ordinary submarine, and by their smaiiness and the power to alter thefr course quickly would possess a dodg ing ability that the large vessel does not have.
