In f-liort, 95 per cent of the children in the country get their educational t!i;inin«? from tlie public schools. They cannot all attend the state A. an.' .M. c«»lk*ge or the Greensboro N'fimal. Moat of them are confined in the public schools and hence the ncct^risity of broadening the scope rovi rrd by the rtiral school system. The farm school will offer Instruc- lion in Maya that will make farm life more profitable and more attrac tive. Thi.=; is a day and time when young men .ind women must equip them KC;ivcs to keep up with the proces sion. The trouble has been in our state that moans of securing needed i quipinent were Inadequate. The es- :al)lihlin?eat of farm-life schools Is a step toward the securing of the op lK»rtunitIes much needed and much (If sired. Greater interest is being taken today In agricultural work. Form demonstration work, corn clubs ana other agencies for kindling deep er interest In farming, orcharding, stock raising, ate., have done much to inspire a more general concern in the improvement of farming. The Farm-Life School will offer the kind of Instruction which will help the young farmer to improve h?s crops, to improve hs lands, and to in crease his profits. Let the mass meeting be the mark ing of a new day in the countj". VALUE OF MOBILIZATION. Rumor hath it that the god-^f war is to be removed from the Mexican border and replaced by the dove of peace. Thus is the tender dream of Hobson, and other more or less con firmed jingoes, dashed upon the shoals of bitter disappointment. Just what foundation there is for the rei)ort that danger of war is passed is left for the ultimate con sumer to figure out for himself. There bo those who look upon the whole affair as a huge joke, w’ho have not been able, even by wildest stretches of the Imagination, to con ceive. a scintilla of evidence tending to show the tiniest trace of a w'ar cloud on the placid horizon. \t any rate we are glad the war v.ith Mexico is over. It has cost us money if not human lives. It has the world agog with gossip, and that tliO dav»n of jioaco is approaching wo thank Uncle S.nn for thus ending the b’ooily shambles. Soi’ie there be. too, who are won dering just why this ill timed mobil ize i ion of troops was ordered. Perhaps they behind the screened chambers are in possession of facts which ful’y ^\'ai•rant e^ery step taken. We should h.'ite to think that Uncle Sam had tai.en n fal e step, and yet it is said tha; even the soldiers are wondering wliy tiiey are there. From this or that authority we oc- ca.-ionally get exi)lanations of the move. One high official thinks the mo bilization of troops along the nordei* w;!i be of inestimable value, and this editorial from the New York World, liiised on hi;^ s atements. is charming its Wealth of satire, If for nothing m re: • rJen.

Wood is unquestionably right. Tlie mobilization is vuidoubtcdly of great value to the army. The Amer- ic;;n ]^eople have always held etii citney 'is one of their chief ideals. V.'c do 1; )t want a larger army than w; can possibly help, but we do want that army to be as efficient as it can posbibly be made.

We&t Point, Miss., March 22.—EX- Governor James K. Vardaman, in a po litical speech here yesterday, denounc ed the national administration for what he termed “the unwarranted use of the army to suppress the rebellion in Mexico.” He said the revolutionist In Mexico were exercising the God- ^ given right to fight for the privilege of living and enjoying the fruits of their toil. Referring to the concentra tion of troops on the Mexican border he said that the army and navy would be thus employed against the poor man in the ultimate conflict between capital and labor.

Editor of The New's; The season of the year is approach ing w'hen We S’hould be prepared to combat the fly and insect nuisances. All articles of food or drink for human consumption should be screen- ed or protected by netting of wire or other^ material so that flies or insects can not come in contact with same. Contagious diseases are more often spread by mild cases than by those se verely ill. The very sick child Is isolated so completely by his illness to give it to his w-ell playmates or members of hi^ ow’n family if they are kept out of the sick room. Mild cases are more apt to spread contagion and infectious diseases, and is so recognized in some cities where quarantine of cases ^f mild sore throat i» made until bacter iological examinations demonstrate that the disease Is not diphtheria. Sometimes the symptoms are so mild that it is never recognized, and is on ly suspected when several persons in the same family have the disease, and like all contagious and infectous dis eases the mildness of one case is not an indication that the next ca&e will not be severe, it is thought important that every precaution should be tak en in guardino the w^ell from the sick and quarantine of the infected house should be strictly enforced. No visi tor should be allowed to enter anj' house where there is a diphtheria or scarlet fever card, and the family of the infected house should avoid visit ing other houses, the patient should be isolated from the rest of the fam ily and kept in the sick room, and all dishes, body and bed clothing, etc., should be disinfected before they are removed from the sick room, and upon the recovery of patient the sick room should be fumigated before it is en tered by any of the household or visi tors allowed in the house. Anti-diphtheria serum has done more for the human race in the treat ment of diphtheria than any other medical discovery during the past 20 years, and no child should be al lowed to suffer and die without an ef fort being made to save it by this treat ment, and if too poor to purchase the treatment the county or city should furnish the remedy free. Contagion and infection of all kinds are caused by dogs and cats. Cats are worse than dogs on account of their nocturnal habits. It is well known that cats go away from home for long periods, but they always re turn and you don’t know where lie has been or w'hat diseased germs he has brought with him. Dogs, too, are dangerous, cases of both s>carlet fever and diphtheria hava been traced di rectly to dogs who visited several fam ilies in the same neighborhood and were on friendly terms with the neigh bors. My advice is to try to keep house with as few’ dogs and cats as a part of the household as possible. Preserv^e your health by having a constant supply of fresh air in your bed chamber; it is a great mistake to sleep in rooms tightly closed, no outward air that comes in is as dan gerous as the air often breathed in a closed chamber.
