MM.iii 1 1 mm ii mil HE FIRST NATIONAL BANK HENDERSON VILLE, N. C. , :ia!Ja3' Farm Life Attraetire In - a full-page interview recently- publisned In the New York Times, Gov ernor Hoke Smith is quoted; as - gay-, in'g: '. '-' ri ''v. ;. "If you asked , me", what I think has been the greatest -deficiency , in the xwork of state and national government during the past century, I should un- hesitatingly reply that it has been neg lect of the farmer and the farmThe conditions of farm life musU and .will b, so completely; metamorphlfed tht the country, not the city, will be re garded generally as the most delight ful, place of I residence for rich and poor alike." :-y:.''"-';r;.:: :'V : ; it means . much tc the , people of Georgia . that the man who is to', re present them in' the nation's j senate is ; committed so earnestly and go de finitely to such &n idea. : For the per manent Interests of this and ' every other state depend mainly upon the development of rural lif. Back cf the congestion and hunger ' of cities, back of the high cost. of living, back of the : social unrest and heart-sickness of millions lies one roota?roblem, and that is the problem of. the farm. , r A. great " French philosopher once declared Uiat the only enduring con quests are, conquests made with the plow. The earth Is truly the mother ctf man.; The,' soil is the ne primal source, of his material prosperity and contentment; One of the greatest du ties! therefore, of. .our state and fed eral government is to open wider op portunities for the average farmer. Tc a large extent, this can be ac complished, as Governor Smith pointed out, by agricultural "research and education and by the development of good roads. These two enterprises should receive " liberal ; support, from the nation and from the individual states. v;. y',;,Y.-. .-. . ; .' "In a state's system of schools, there Is no. branch of study more important thn that of polls and soil, prewar tion. farming, maeea,, nas come 10 be recognized as one. of the great practical arts and sciences. Special Institutions, well equipped 1 and well endowed, should - be devoted to its leaching and through an adequate System of county or district schools this knowledge should be brought to A XI. 1 A - 1 ne very aoorsiep .oi me country, Doy. n this way haphazard cropping will .e replaced by scientific , methods of ultivation. Land that is now sterile vill blossom and land' that, is being Irained cf its substance will be con- -ervd and enriched for . future gen- tratlons. - Thus, too, farming will be come one of the mostprofltable of , oCuuona wnereas its labor is. now often but scantily, repaid. I5yery ollar that a state appropriates to its gricultural schools is a valuable , in estment in the Interest ofv the whole jeople. ' ' . - But more than this, the state and he nation, through their administra te departments, should . be .ccntinual y seeking and giving knowledge on he science of agriculture and the iffalrs of the farm As governor Jmlth expresses it, we must ehter on m. era of governmental study of seeds xnd Bojls and crop culture, of plant :ulture and the. enemies of . trees ' and ruits, of cattle and " all other" ; live :tock. . : , . - ; : , Our governments, states and nation- il, have already started in the right lirection and such work as they have lone e ig bearing rich results, but as Vet - they, have made only a beginning Second only to these, educational en terprises In importance is the build- ng cf good roads. " Jn any commun ty favored with ample and well-kept dghways, farming is bound to pros jer and farm life will become attrac tive. Bad roads are directly respon sible for many of the losses the far mer sustains and for' a very great deal of the isolation that has made rural life uninviting. "Without good roads the profitable marketing of crops is most difficult, if not impossible. The ' social value of the school house . and the church depend largely upon the number and the quality of the roads that link them to the , individual homes of the com munity. Recognizing the truth of this Governor Sjnith says of the Journal Herald National Highway and the ap proaching Gidden tour: . The good roads movement is , oz great importance , to the welfare of thecountry. " . . , My inter- .

When they, came back from ;the trip around the belt, however, . they came to ; grief. 'It'. was, planned to ' 'rush" another moving picture show. , They proceeded to do . so, incidentally knocking' down a; young lady who was collecting tickets and injuring her seriously .The police, who must. have been asleep up to- this time, then ar rested the two ring-leaders, took them around to the police station and lock ed them up. They remained; in the lock-up until one f the., colleger-authorities came ; around and bailed .them out. -. ; . ; We ' don't know what, steps 5 will be token to punish the ; offenders '.'by the University of Geogia officials but; we suppose they will be given a lit tle lecture and allowed to go on. They, ought to be expelled from the institu tion in : disgrace. Such conduct as that but tends to lower: the general opinion of the institution "at -which the .young men t are ' students and it tends to- prejudice. ' ; some: against all colleges. Such customs as' that : may be very, well In , the north but they won't go In the; south. - ;. " ';- The late Dr. Carlisle ot Wofford college, always told the' boys of that Institution that the reputaion of the college -rested . upon ; them.- Especial ly did hetry to impress this fact' upon them at the Christmas, holidays and commencement time - when . he; knew they would f be bound Af or home in a mood that was most gleeful and which often leads- to. foolish pranks. He old them that foolish conduct on their, part on , a . train or ..elsewhere j would be but . a reflection upon the Institution. The same warning- was always given to the baseball ,team' of the Institution . when v it , prepared to take a trip. There is no one that will question the wisdom of such advice.- Daily Piedmont.'

A Beaver's Working-Day. A young beaver in Regents . Park Gardens, London, was once placed at work' upon a tree 12. feet long and 2 feet 6 j inches thick, just as the town clock sounded the hour of noon. The beaver began by barking the tree a foot above the ground. That done, he attacked the wood.; He worked : hard, alternating his. labor with dips in: his bathing pond. .: He bathed and' labored alternately until 4 o'clock in the af ternoon, when he ate his supper, of bread and -carrots and paddled about in1 his pond until naif-past 5 o'clock. Ten minutes later,;- when - only ' one inch' of the tree's diameter ; remained Intact, he bore upon' his work, and the tree fell. Before it fell the; beaver ran -as men run when? they have fired a blast.: -.Then, as the tree lay. on the ground,- he portioned It out mentally and again began to gnaw. ; .He. worked at Intervaals all; night;, cut the log ' into three ; parts;. rolled two of jthe portions intq the water, and' reserved tte other third for his perman'ent 'hlter.

' They were so unrelenting and ex treme In their opposition and so per sonally, abusive, that ; sympathy was created and votes made for Blease that he otherwise' could never have secured. ; This gentleman, himself vot ed against Blease' and deplored his leadership in South Carolina politics, but all the blame for the situation he laid, at the doors of the Governor's enemies." He proceeded to remark further that so far from learning a lesson from v. their vpast indiscretion the newspapers are preparing to wage a fiercer warfare than ever which, this Pelmettc citizen thinks, will land Blease in the Senate of the United States. It Is, curious that men are so slow to learn, that the way to elect a man it " to - abuse - him. Public sym-, pathy is sure to turn toward the man who is persecuted; and it is a good thing that this is true. Most men feel- for-, the under dog.
