A Visit to a Cljildreii's School Farm. Columbia University, Hartley Hall, N0W York City. Editor of the Dispatch:- If you thiijk the boys and girls of Alamance would like to know how some of the little boys and girls of I^ew York City spend their summers you may publish the following: ^ . In 1902 Mrs; Henry Parsons established the first Children's School Farm or Garden in New York City. It was supported by private funds and contributions. Now they are taken over by the city^di^e' teachers have to stand examination under Munici pal Civil Service for positions as teachers. In 1911, 22,000 differ ent children used these Gardens from May 20 to Oct. 20. It was one of these Gardens to which 275 students of Columbia uni versity had the pleasure of go ing PMday afternoon, July 12th, at the Thomas Jeiferson P^rk. This particular Garden is called the “Garden of a Thousand Gar dens” because it has a thousand little gardens or plots for the boys and girls to raise things in. Each one of these plots is 4 by 8 feet, separated by roads 18 in ches wide, running north and south and east and west. Seven vegetables, representing fami- liee, are grown in each of these plots. Each plot belongs to an individual boy or girl. Each has a tag with his name and the num ber of the plot on it. . This tag is eis deed to the plot. If he loses his tag he loses his plot for no duplicate tags are given, s> the children are very careful with their plot deeds. The children are assigned tl^iese plots in May in order application. Certain days are announced for the assigning of plots and “Firsr. come first served” is the rule. The children do all the work un der the diiectiun of expert teach ers in Gardening and get ail the products of their plot. On the aiternoon of our visit they were harvesting their snap beans. Each child had one row across his plot and each one of this thousand children were getting enough snaps to make a good mess for an ordinary family. A visit to the Garden together witli the facts is necessary to show the enthusiasm and pride these little street brats take in the own ership of their plots. At the office of the gardens there is a long platforn?j, with an awning over it, which serves as a stage. Here twelve girls, members of the Housekeepers’ section, cooked and served the beets, nnions, lettuce; and other vegetables grown on their plots. They, sat at the table with the pride of a princess and were glad to have their dishes sampled. At the other end of the platform some boys got to work with saw and hammers and made house hold furniture and other useful articles out of packing boxes. The principles of Gardening are applied constantly to the lives of these tenement people.' To preserve to neatness of the gar den the Children are taught to gather stones and trash and wheelbarrow them away. In do ing this and in keeping the 18 inch paths in order they are tai?ghtto think about streets and rcad^ .and tiransportation. Tiiig individual plot develops de«ire for personal effort for per sonal profit The common ser vice teaches community welfare. The repfcaied thinning of vege tables to secure for them space, sunlight and air is repeatedlg ap plied to their own lives. They were teaching these children real ideal life. In the Thomas Jefferson Park, near the garden, was a play ground for ,|the children. Here they were provided with swings, see saws, banks of sand, ball grounds &c and what struck me especially was a long slanting wooden trough down which the little tots slid into a bank of sand. Here I remembered the red gul ly bank on which we Alamance boys wo’^e out the seat of our pants. If in the minds of any nf the visitors, there was a doubt as to the need of these play grounds and gardens it vanished forever when we walked through the I- talian districts from which these play ground and Garden children came. There on the side walks beneath the windows of the 8 to 12 story tenement house, appar ently without a shaddow of par ental restraint, hundreds of bare headed, poorly clad, dirty child ren loafed, played and fought. So crowded were the streets with fruit and confectionery stands, passers, children and filth that one found his way with difficul ty. Thank God that the Alamance boys and girls are growipg into strong manhood and womanhood on the very thing for which the New York City children are starv ing— the ideal country home. J, Harrison Allen. UHGENT NEED FUR FUNDS ' The Superintendent of the North Carolina Children’s Hon^e Society has arrived in Greensboro from a three-week’s business trip, outside tiie state, and makes the astonishing statement that with in the past four days 18 new children have been received, 9 of them in one bunch iMt evening. Two more are to arrive today and two tomorrcw* making 22 in six days. Dming the same period he reports placement of seven chil^n in homes and others will be pla(^d rapidly. These statements show the bright side of the work of the Spciety and illustrate the oft-re peated fact that, if supplied with mpney to pay the expenses of the Work, it has the ability other- -^se to meet all demands. Money is necessary. The bona fide rnohthly expense budget at present is only $700, with" which the Society can handle an aver age of one new child a day—the average that it has asked to pro vide fOr for a whole year; yet, the June 1912 income-was $430.- 55, and till last night the entire July income was only $49,00. I Now the Daily News knows by I several years of intimate aequa-! intance with the work of thej Society that it is in every w’ay: worthy of the most generous suy | port of our people. It is doing a} distinct and separate work from that of any of the institutional orphanages; and but for its zeal and activity, a work that wonld not be done. But look at the foregoing financial showing— $574.55 contributed in six weeks! We also know that almost every dollar of that had to be called for in person by a salaried represen tative of the Society—requiring more thar. one third of the fund collected to maintain these repre sentatives. Doubtless hundreds of readers of the Daily News would gladly contribute if called on; why not save expense to the Society and send the money direct to the sup erintendent or to this paper, and we will turn it over—and, send it now while the need is so great. Your personal contribution may save a life from a hopeless and useless existence and make of it a worthy man or woman whose achievements will bless others and make the world a better place to live in.—Greensboro News of July 15, 1912.

Douglasville, Tex. — “Five ye&TB ago I was caught in the rain at the wrong time, ” imtes Edna Rutherford, of Dougls^- ^ "and from that time, was taken with dumb chills and fe vers, and suffered more than I can tell. I tried everything that I thought would help, and had four doctors, but got no releif. I took Cardui, the woman ^s tonic. Now, I feel better than in many months. ’ ’ Cardui does one thing and does it well That’s the se cret of its 50 years of success. Try Cardui. Is Coventor Blease a Grafter? The long-drawn out quarrel be tween Governor Cole Blease of South Carolina and Hon. Thomas B. Felder, of Atlanta, took a sen sational turn Friday when the in vestigation of the old dispensary fraud cases was renewed at Au gusta, Ga. A dispatch from Au gusta says: Detective William J, Burns, was the star witness today before the special investigating commit tee of the South Carolina legisla ture which instituted its probe here today into the old state dis pensary system. The hearing was primarily called to take the testimony of Thomas E. Felder, the Atlanta attorney, who repre sents the commission which wound up the dispensary affairs Testifying at tonight’s session of the hearings. Detective Burns asserted that records which will be introduced by his men would show ‘‘whether or not Gov. Cole L Blease of South Carolina, has been grafting as Governor and State Senator. ” Evidence taken by a telephon ic device and personally by a Burns’detective was submitted today purporting to show that Governor Blease secured $2,000 for pardoning Rudolph Rabon, convicted, of harboring stolen goods. Testimony from the same source was to the effect that Gov ernor Blease received $^0 for blocking railroad legislation, $200 for thwarting the first attempt made in the dispensary investi gation and that the Governor geta his share of the blind tiger “pro tection” money from Charles ton. ‘Tom” Taggart is unable to tell a Congressional investigating committee how much the Demo cratic campaign of 1904 cost, but the fact remains that it was not enough to overcome the amount raised for Roosevelt by tilie late Mr. Harriman and his friends. Terrible Picture oi Sofferlng Clinton, Ky>—Mrs. M, C. Me Elroy, in a letter from Clinton, writesFor six years, I was a sufferer from female troubles. I could not eat, and could not stand on my feet, without suffering great pain, I had lost hope. After using Cardui a week, I began to improve. Now I feel better than in six years.” Fifty years of success in actual practice, is positive proof, furnished by those who have used it, that Cardui can always be relied ots for re lieving female weakness and di'^ease. Try Cardui, today, now! Spit, W, Ffl. Hines, Ala.—In a letter from this place, Mrs. Eula Mae Brad ley says: ‘ 1 used to spit up all I ate. I was tired and sleepy all the time. My head ached, and I could hardly drag around. Since taking Cardui, this has entirely quit, and now I feel quite fit.” Mrs. Bradley suffered from ner vous indigestion. Cardui builds If the nervous system, and strengthens the womanly consti tution. That’s why Cardui help ed Mrs. Bradley and why it will help you. Try it. W^teri MAY 26, 1912.
