MONDAY, FEB. 21 1921 MAKE HASTE SLOWLY Those Democrats who are in such haste to effect a "reorganization" of the party should be kindly but firmly repressed, mere is no neea ior naste. The Democratic party has survived many defeats and it is not going into dissolution as a result oi last novem ber's setback, "Watchful waiting" :s the cure for the Democratic party just now. and if its members in the henate and House conduct themselves with reasonable sagacity and political com monsense during the ensuing two years their numbers will be vastly augmented when the next Congres sional election is held. The American people went on a po litical debauch last November, and they are already experiencing the "morninsr after'' feeling. Repentance will follow in due course. Awakening is at hand. The G. O. P. sees it com ing, and their best skill is at work to sidestep it. If the Democrats in this Congress will, after a dignified pro test, let emergency and bluff measures ro through, and the President will al low them to become laws without his signature, the Republican troubles will begin. It is no part of Democra tic duty, repudiated, maligned, dis credited, to get in the way. If Demo crats halt legislation the KeDUblican spellbinders will easily attach blame lor what is coming (and it is plenty) to the minority. Let the "best minds'' of the G. O. P. tackle their own prob lems unhindered, and let the respon sibility for the results rest upon them. The wisdom of this course, from a Democratic standpoint, is emphasized by the overwhelming odds against the minority party in the national leirislature. The hisrhest and most un selfish patriotic motives might dictate a different course were there to be nough Democrats in the new Con gress to make possible an effective opposition to the reactionary pro gram which the Republican Old Grand plans to put through. But, as mat ters stand, Democratic opposition to Republican plans will be futile, and the best service the Democratic par ty can perform for the country will b to throw the light on to the dark places and place responsibility squarely where it belongs. Afte r the country has begun to fairly realize what it wished to itself when it went to the polls last November, there will be plenty of time and opportunity for such reorganization as the Democra tic party may need for a winning campaign in 1922 and 1924. WERE OVERLY-WILLING TO CHEAT. In connection with the Republican charge that voters who had paid ;'.l tax were allowed to cast ballots in Iredel County, the public ought to hold one fact in mind. It was a proposi tion of Republican origin. The Repub lican managers in that county had come to the conclusion that their party might profit through such an arrangement and made the sugges tion to the Democratic managers. It was accepted, and so the "gentleman's agreement" was born. As a matter of course it was winking at the law, but it was a Republican banter, and the Democrats "saw it,'' as the say ing goes. And then the gentlemanly Republicans, having got the worst of the bargain did not hesitate to turn welchers. The net result was that in stead of establishing a cause for con testing the election on that score, they simply made public revelation of the fact that they were perfectly will ing to carry an election by cheating when the possible chance had presen ted itself to them. Charlotte Observer. Germany has set up the whine that she is not able to pay the hurr'e in demnity the allies demands or her. Germany has not been invaded. Her property was not destroyed. She is gathering herself together to recoup her losses by the war. France was torn to streds and her industiial life completely paralyzed. If Germany is allowed to go unpunished she will soon be in position to plunge the world into another war; and she is mean enough to do it. She should bo compelled to pay to the uttermost farthing Charity and Children. Germany must remember that it was Bismarck who made the fashion in in demnities. St Paul Pioneer Press. No objections to Mr Bryan leading the Democratic party will come from the Republicans. Toledo Blade. Roanoke Rapids' sale of $375,000 in school bonds indicates that one town wants schools and is not afraid to pav for them and isn't afraid of taxes. It Is a safe bet that Roanoke Rapids win win. The Democratic party needs follow ers worse than leaders. Toledo Blade Palm Beach. Fla..

FARM DEMONSTRATION NOTES (W. L. Smarr.) Mr. Allen G. Oliver, State Poultry Club Agents, assisted the County Agent and the Home Demonstration Agent in conducting soie meetings the past week in the interest of better farm poultry. Meetings were held in each township and considerable in terest was shown in the work as pre sented by Mr. Oliver. Mr, Oliver said, "I have strained my eyes in looking about the farm homes for the home of the farm hen, but they were hard to find. "We do not provide comfortable homes for our poultry and then expect them to lay when eggs are a good price. "Do not blame the hens, blame yourself. It is a wonder that the average hen lays as many eggs as she does when we consider the haphazard method under which they are managed. "Life is too short to fool with a of ovorv onnopivwhlp hrpd nnH rrnas. es of such breed) as is found on many of our home farms. "What can we expect to get from such a bunch with I.; i - c .i t oirus oi rqse comos, single conins, long tails, short tails,, no tail at all, green legs, yeuow legs learner les, and plumage of every imaginable col or, "Anv standard brood of noultrv will produce more meat, and more eggs of a' uniform grade at less cost than will a bunch of mongrels. "There is o mnrlcpt. fnv a uniform rwiHn-t tViof will pay a premium for the best. "Ja-bird-crow ego;s will never com mand the price of uniform eggs on the ! markets. A Jay-bird-crow will never weigh as much as a bird of a stand-1 ard breed will at the samp ea. irnwn I under similar conditions. "Comfortable houses and a Stand- ard breed of poultry are two of the re cjuisitos for successful poultry grow ing. "Another is that we must hatch our chick early. "I would not give n snap of my finger for a chick of the dual-purpose breeds that was hatched after the 20 of April for a layer; (The dual-purpose breeds are the Rhode Island Reds, Rocks, Wyandottes, etc. The Leghorns may be hatched out a little later) "In order to have hens laying in the winter and to set in the early spring, we must hatch early. "A pullet must be fully developed be fore she will begin to 'lav. "She will not be developed for the early fall months if she is hatched out late. "Be fore she is hatched early, she will lay during the fall and winter months, and will be ready to set in the early months, of the year. "There are ten reasons for hatching early; they grow rapidly and have more vigor, stronger and less liable to die from lice and dis ease, have longer growing season, will have made considerable growth be fore hot weather begins, they mature before fall, thev produce fall and win ter eggs, fall and winter eggs brings the highest prices, early hatched pul lets lav While tho hpna nro mnHir, and the early hatched pullets are the Ones that hprnmn nrnnir ..-,-K- ; u following spring.
