Sometime I have appreciated the real vexation thai some women ex hibited into the house with muddy boots or shoes. A woman car spend her life with broom, brush and wa ter cleaning porches, linoleums, oil clothes and walks, yet the unthink ing ' ones never seem to give a thought to the labor that it takes to do this. It is rather discouraginn to aim at having a spotless house when other members are not assist ing in a small way to keep it clean; Boys and men are very careless in this matter, and women, too, but seldom the ones who know what the work amounts to. A dainty woman never thinks of entering, another woman's house without first remov ing the rubber shoes or rubber sari dals she may wear; but a careless woman will be less considerate and go into a "hall without removing them. There is room for improve ment on both sides. The woman to be pitied is the one who wants her home sweet and attractive and she alone is the only one aiming for such. When discouragement finally comes, the woman who has aimed and failed settles down in her unat tractive home and is one of the most sadly disappointed creatures alive, for it is only natural that woman should love home, and she wants it as pretty, dainty and neat as possible. She can't fix the, broken fence, though many certainly try, and they cannot mend the broken grape-trellis, nor put down a new yard walk, for these things are the work of strong men, and where an ugly yard presents it self, it la indicative of a lack of home interest and sometimes a very, lazy man.

CaaUai Heath. .Corn has not reached the critical stage in crop development to be seriously injured by hot and dry weather, but it is fast reaching that point In Texas, Oklahoma, south ern Kansas, Arkansas, and parts of the eastern southern states serious damage has already resulted to the crop from drought and extreme heat injuring the tassel. Corn authori ties say that .the taseeling stage the critical period, and, with the tassel injured, it, can never make good com because it prevents pol lenlzatlon. In the corn belt ; the critical stage In an average year is between July IS and August IS. As the crop this year is ten days to two weeks early on an average, the im portant stage is near at hand, and, unless the corn belt gets good gen eral rains, damage is feared. So far the condition is surprisingly good, and one to two weeks more without rain will make a big difference and cause rapid deterioration. , There of which do not show over thejrreat er part of tbV corn belt, many of which do not show over the weather map, and conditions are .more, spot ted than usual. , ' , : a Ail indications point to a shorter hay and oat crop than for several years, due to drought and heat The southwest had a large acreage, but reports say that the yield will be light because oats heading short, and the same conditions prevail in north western Iowa, over southwestern Minnesota, and over the greater part of South Dakota. There is a short age of timothy, the yields being the lightest in years, and prices have ad vanced-to the highest point known at this season. . l ' 1 , Eat Nearly All Osrselves. XI is aigmncant teat along with s general increase in, exports, princi pally manufactures, during- 1910 there were marked declines in wheat, flour, cattle and meats Every year we need so much more nearly all our food crops to feed the home popula tion that the day when we shall have no important food surplus for export is apparently near at hand. '. While production per acre rises constantly as land becomes more valuable and methods are improved, the last cen sus showed continued disproportion in growth between cities and towns on one hand and rucal ' districts on the other. More and more, over crowded Europe relies , upon newer food-producing regions, which stand about where we stood a generation ago, for its imparts of food. There is little cause for us to lament this change, since exports of raw ma terials-much better used at home- profit a country less than any other kind. ' It seems clear, however, that in the matter of food staples Canada, Argentina and a few others are rap idly, getting our. job, Charlotte Observer. , , 1 flow Aa Ifiter WeM De It.

Neither would we eat a solid meal of rough-on-rats, blow out the gal, drink concentrated lye, sit. down in the lap of a buzsawV smoke cigaretts, or call a Kentuckian a lior or poor judge of whiskey.

That the clergymen appreciate the influence of newspapers as keenly as any class of professional men ia this country is eviJont from the frequen cy with which tl.ey allude to them in their sermon. Here is what Rev. F. Stanley Powles, of Milwaukee, told his cougreiratlon on s recent Sunday evening: ' . ' "We as citizens of the metropolis of Wisconsin do not half appreciate what our newspapers are doing for us. - We criticise When nine eases rat of ten we ought to give them- credit for the effectiveness of their work in moulding public . opinion.. Co operation and not condemnation should be our policy. It exerts much power for good and if the church of today is looking forward to the church of tomorrow to be factor for good,' it must acknowl edge this in every phase of life. "Our press does exert a moral in fluence, and many of its editorials are splendid lay sermons. . In ex posing graft and denouncing crime and underhand political schemes. it now does, is proof of itself that it is decidedly favorable to morality. If the public demands flaring headlindea of crimes and debauch ery, the newspapers will publish them. Don't, blame the press for what you yourself take an active part In. The church flays the Sun day newspayera, when its success is made what it is by the patronage of the Christian church. ' "The press has its faults. It makes sad mistakes in many things. and st times forgets the real wants of our city. : We do not need warn ings all the time, and in this particu lar I feel that our city papers create s wrong impression. A clean press means s dean city. and to obtain this we should not de- nonuco but co-operate to raise the standard. We aa christkms do not familiarize ourselves with the actual needs, artdAhea see to ft that things are improved We sit back and de cry our city press and try' our ut most to make bur denunciation ef fective. This only .widens the breach between press and church, and both ing is gained. - Our Milwaukee press is affecting the morals of our great city, and in my opinion, rightly, Whenour clergy fully realize that co-operation and not denunciation is needed to improve humanity then shall, we appreciate what our press is doing for our city. We have not an editor in our city but who is willing to co-operate with us in making his paper one of power for good if we show ourselves to be to the right at titude for harmony."

Some forms of industrial pros perity may hang upon the decisions of a stern bench of judges, but the farmer neither fears the 'judicial form nor courts the judicial smile.

The- size of his harvest does not depend upon the interpretation of the obscure word ing of musty statues. The corn may grow as tall as it pleases without any danger that it will be prosecuted for restraint of trade. i t " In this connection the June crop report of the department of agri culture contains matter for general rejoicing, for it foreshadows the greatest wheat crop this country has ever seen, a splendid corn crop and a bountiful harvest generally. Bump er crops, beside furnishing assurance that the country is in no danger of famine, help in the maintenance of confidence, and, therefore, are a di rect factor in the business situation,' irrespective of the range of prices in the wheat pit " A girl is always in love.

Some of the great est men the world has ever produced obtained the best part of their educa tion while boys in printing offices. But the printing office is no place for the boy without brains or am bition, nor for a dolt who simply de sires to go there because the work is light or seems light. It ia an excel lent place for an observing, thinking and studiously Inclined, boy. There are many printing offices where; men will not be bothered with boys and will not give advice or instruction to apprentices or to young workers, whose competition they fear.; In some respects a boy la in luck who has to go to a reformatory, especial ly s boy who wants to learn the printing trade, aa in most of the state reformatories for boys there are printing offices where the boys are taught tbe printing business. Our Comanion. ; IftC a 9e)Aesl eajptteTe Recent seizures of whiskey In Mooresville, Asheville end Hender- sonville, in particular would seem to indicate a belief has gone abroad that the prohibition law in this State is a thing that can now be defied and little or no attention paid to the de fiance. That, or there is a general and almost an open movement in contempt of the law. Again, it has been published that some of tbe near-beer dealers will take out gov ernment license and continue busi ness, replacing near-beer with a new article manufactured for the pur pose. Their protestations that they will handle nothing contrary to the law, is plainly negatived in their ap plication for Federal revenue license. If they intend to operate within the prohibition law, they have no need of a revenue license. - But we were going to say that those who think they may see a laxity in the enforce ment of the prohibition law of the State are going to find themselves mistaken. The very boldness of re cent operations will result in a gen eral clean-up in the State. The pro hibition law in North Carolina b by no means a dead letter. True, the pen alty does not amount to much more than conflscatian and a fine but con tinued violations will have but one result and that will be the imposi tion of penalties of sufficient severity to put a stop to the blind tiger traffic.
