States about two million miles of

the earth 80 times. The problem of
keeping them in repair is an ever-recurring
one and not in many places
has it been satisfactorily solved. In
searching for a remedy for trouble
we sometimes follow the trail of em
pricism so eagerly as to overlook the
simple relief that all the while con
fronts us. It may be so in this case,
and if one of misplaced confidence
the Government must bear a large
share of the responsibility, because

This simple device is not new. Its
virtue has been proclaimed before,
but it is comparatively unknown in
this part of the country. Some years
ago a Missouri farmer, named Bat

roads, was accustomed to hitch a
drag of this construction to his
wagon when he drove to town. It
took him but a little more time to
make the trip with this handicap,
and in a few months he had a road
that was better than most of the
rock-bedded kind. It naturally at
tracted attention, resulting in a
brotherhood of good road draggers,
which recently held a celebration,
with a parade half a mile long to
give emphasis to its achievements.

It was near New Year's night. An
aged man was standing by the win
dow. He mournfully raised his eyes
toward the deep blue sky, where the
stars were floating white lillies on
the surface of a clear, calm lake.
Then he cast them on the earth,
where few more helpless beings than
himself were moving toward the in
evitable goal the tomb. Already
he has passed 60 of the stages which
lead to it, and he had brought from
his journey nothing but errors and
remorse. His health was destroyed,
his mind unfurnished, his heart sor
rowful and his old age devoid of
comfort.
The days of his youth rose up in a
vision before him, and he recalled
the solemn moment when his father
had placed him at the entrance of
two roads, one leading into a peace
iul, sunny land, covered with fer
tile harvest and surrounding with
soft, sweet songs, white the other
conducted the wanderer into a deep,
dark cave, whence thei s was no is
sue, where poison flowed instead of
water and where serpents hissed and
crawled.
He looked toward the sky and
cried out in his anguish: "O, youth,
return! O, my father, place me
once more at the cross way of life,
that I may choose the batter road!"
But the days of his youth had passed
away, and his parents were with the
departed. He saw wardering lights
float over dark marshes and then
disappear. "Such," he said, "were
the days of my wasted life!" He
saw a star shoot from heaven and
vanish in darkness athwart the
churchyard. "Behold, an emblem
of myself!" he exclaimed. And the
sharp arrows of unavailing remorse
struck him to the heart.
Then he remembered his early
companions, who had entered his
life with hirn, but who, having trod
the paths of virtue and industry
were now happy and honored on this
New Year's night.
The clock in the high church tow
er struck, and the sound, falling on
his ear, recalled the ninny tokens of
the love of his parents for him, the
prayers they had offered up in his
behalf. Overwhelmed with shame
and grief, he dared no longer look
toward that heaven where they
dwelt. His darkened eyes dropped
tears, and with one despairing ef
fort, he cried aloud "Come, back.my
early days! Come back!"
And his youth did return, for all
this had been but a dream, visiting
his slumbers on New Year's night.
He was still young; his errors only
wfH'e no dream. He thanked God
that he had not yet entered the deep
dark cavern, but he was free to tread
fervently that time was still his own,
the road leading to the peaceful land
where sunny harvests wave.
Ye who still linger on the thresh
old of life, doubting which path to
choose, remember that when years
shall be passed and your feet shall
stumble on the dark mountain you
will cry bitterly, but cry in vain: "O
youth' return! Oh, give me back my
early days. Jean Paul Richter.
ANTS PROTECT PLANT.
Next fall when the agricultural
colleges open there are pretty sure
to be a dozen or so boys and young
men in each State in the South who
wish to attend but who will be finan
cially unable. The same thing will
be true in a larger scale in those
States where the agricultural short
courses are held during the winter.
Now, many of these boys many
who think they cannot possibly do so
could attend these schools if they
would only begin preparing for it in
time. To wait until the last minute
to get ready for anything is a poor
policy; and it will pay to make some
effort to get a college training along
agricultural lines.
There is an increasing demand for
men of energy, industry and devo
tion to their work to lead in the
great forward movement of South
ern farming. Chemists, entomolo
gists, horticulturists, botanists, vet
erinarians, dairymen, agronomists
trained specialists of all kinds can
find a wide field for useful and profi
table work. For plain, practical
farmers who know something of
scientific as well as of the practical
side of farm work there is an equal
ly insistent call. There are literally
thousands of young farmers who
should and who could take the short
courses in agriculture offered by our
colleges, and who, if they dia so,
would assuredly quicken the South
ern farmer's progress toward better
farming and better times. These
boys are the fairest hope of the
Southland, and it is a distinct loss,
not only to the boy himself, but also
to the State when one of them neg
lects the chances he has for prepar
ing himself for a larger and more
fruitful field of labor.
Right now the boys on the farm
should begin preparing to take ad
vantage of these opportunities. The
crops, the stock, everything that
will help swell the school fund.should
be looked after; and it is worth
while to give up many things, which
seem worth while for the moment,
for such a purpose as this.
It doesn't require a great deal of
money to get a start toward an
education; but some is absolutely
necessary. Begin now to get it to
gether. After the start is made the
young man who has the pluck and
the love of learning, will find a way
to go on.- Progressive Farmer.

How They Defend It Against Leaf De
stroying Insects.
A standing army of ants for de
fensive purposes is kept and provided
with food by a sensitive plant of Nic
aragua. In this acacia there are two
large thorns at the base of each leaf
inhabited by colonies of ants which
bore into the thorns and make a home
for themselves by eating out the soft
inner tissue. On the leaf stalks there
are honey glands, and at the tip of
each leaflet there is a sausage shaped
body about as large as a pin's head,

neighbors. The public utterances of
Scotland Nock residents on the follow

Scotland Neck, X. C, snys: "lVan
Kidney Pills have proven of great value
consisting of albuminous food. The to mo- 1 ""Vrrl severely from lame
ants sip the nectar and eat the food
bodies, and being contented with
their lot, remain on the plant with
out doing it any injury.
When the plant is threatened by
an invasion of leaf cutting ants which
would damage it the ants composing
the plant's army or police force rush
out and repel the intruders. Many
similar arrangements exist in tropi
cal plants.
In one of the most remarkable of
these ant plants the female ant bites
a hole in the stem and brings up her
brood inside it. The stalk of each leaf
is swollen at its base and bears food
bodies which are eaten by the ants
when they emerge to find for thesel
ves. As the old food bodies are eaten
new ones are formed, thus keeping
the ants, which are of a fierce dispo
sition, in the plant's employment.
Plants of the same species which do
not happen to be inhabited by ants
fall an easy prey to leaf cutting kinds
of ants, which are only too plentiful
in the tropics. In other cases the de
fensive ants are provided only with
shelter in cavities of the stem, and
various naturalists have observed
that these ants pour out in troops
whenever leaf cutting enemies at
tack the foliage.
The ants which thus defend these
plants are small, but sting with ex
treme virulence.their small size mak
ing them the more formidable. The
leaf cutting ants cut off the leaves
and pile them up in heaps.forming a
sort of kitchen garden of leaf mould,
upon which they cultivate a fungus
belonging to the mushroom family.
They sow the spores of the mush
room and make a pure culture of the
fungus, nibbling at it to p event the
development of mushroom heads and
thus promote the growth of spawn.

Where Corn Crop Goes.
People often wonder, particularly
those who have traveled for 'hun
dreds of miles through the corn belt
what becomes of the corn which is
n-rown everv vear. In the year of
1908, when the total crop was 2,666,
000,000 bushels, 211,000,000 bushels
were consumed in flour and grist
mill products, 8,000,000 bushels for
malt liquors, 17,000,000 bushels in
the production of distilled liquors,
40,000,000 bushels for glucose, 190,
000,000 bushels for exports and 13,
000,000 bushels for seed, making a
total of 518,000,000 bushels, or 19 3
per cent of the entire crop. The re

The South is Making Silk.
"There are few people who know
that North Carolina, among its di
versified industries, has a number of
silk mills," remarked Mr. Thos. J.
Pence, a Raleigh man, who is stay
ing at the Stafford Hotel.
"In the growing town of Wades
boro there are two silk mills.one cm
ploying white labor exclusively, the
other using negro operatives. They
are both prosperous, and their only
handicap is a scarcity of help. The
raw material in the form of cocoons
comes from China, and costs from $2
to $3.60 a pound delivered at Wades
boro, but when spun into silk yarn
it brings the mill owners $5 a pound
and up, according, to the state of
the market. The owners maintain
headquarters in Dover, N. J., but
the product of the mills goes to New
York. The work, which is light and
clean, gives employment to many
girls and boys, who are able to earn
from $5 to $7 a week. In the plant
where the colored hands worked a
cheaper quality of silk is produced,
the colored employes not having as
yet acquired the skill necessary to
turn out the finest grades. There
are also other silk factories in the
state, located at Fayetteville, Kins.
ton and High Point, and I believe
they are all making good money on
the "caDital invested." - Baltimore
