It is a pleasure to learn that Sena
tor K. W. Carmiu-k disavow any in
tention of agitating the question of
n'pcaling the fit unit h amendment in
Congress. Such action would merely
result in a lot of talk which we of the
South are already tired of. There is
no likelihood of the fifteenth amend
ment being repealed, and really no
need of it, for it is a dead letter in
practically every State where its pnv
vision would amount to anything if
carried out.

A farm house without shade and
fruit trees is indeed a desolate and
tinelv place to live, and sometimes it
is the cause of our Ixiyn and girls
leaving the farm.
There is no prettier sit and no
more euiovublt place to live than in
a cimfiirtable farm house, surround
ed by heuulifiil shade trees, and in
such a home the farmer has a happy
family. 1 he women folks have their
flowers and are contented, and the
Isiy and girl have no desire lo
leave such a home. A farm house
without shade trees is indeed not an
enjoyable place to live and to rear a
family.
The St. Imis Republic says: "The
lest met ion of our forest trees the
