Tuesday, November 13, 1915 -TTTrTTTfTTfVTjrrfyiLriI xiLiTrri.n Individual Action Needed The increase in highway motor vehicle acci dents is causing much concern for safety coun cils, and the problem is receiving considerable study- dollars arc spent improving highways and eliminating accident hazards. Manufacturers are incorporating every possible safety feature in construction. Authorities call for strict enforcement of traffic laws and imme diate repair of defective equipment. Yet, the accident toll increases. After all perfect conditions surrounding roll ing equipment and roads can enhance travel safety but so much and no more. In the final analysis it is up to the individual driver to de cide how sale travel is going to be on the streets and highways of our county and stave. The in dividual driver will have to snap out of the daze, cast off indifference and carelessness and real ize that the operation of a motor vehicle is seri ous business—a matter of life and death. Driv ers who do not recognize any responsibility once they are under a steering wheel are potential killers and maimers. Unfortunately, they can not be haled into court until they have done damage. The indifferent, thoughtless and care less driver must wake up to the responsibilities he accepts directly or indirectly when he places himself at the steering wheel of a motor ve hicle. Even when all conditions are perfect and the driver is exercising every precaution there’ll be wrecks, but once conditions are ideal and drivers are careful and thoughtful, the trend in the num ber of wrecks will start moving downward. Education For—\ot Againtit By Ruth Taylor Sometimes we are so busy talking about the value of education, that we don’t stop to consid er that education is a two-edged sword. It can be used both for and against. Read any of the crop of books about Germany or Japan and you will see that however much their authors disagree on conclusions and recom mendations, they all agree on one thing—that the Nazis and their counterparts in Japan edu cated Germany and Japan for war. That is how all dictatorships succeed—they educate against. The first object of all educa tion is to train citizens. If these citizens can be molded into a tight mass by ingraining false ideas, by teaching hatred instead of friendships, by showing oly one side of a picture, they be come so cohesive that they can be swayed and used as one at the beck and call of the creator of their minds In democracy it is the other wjt$, Wp.deliber- I ^ x oti-ly -take-W,: stand of disputing *1,1 facts, until they can be proven by the individual. Our chil dren learn to think for themselves—which is ex cellent if they have some standard by which to measure the value of their own thoughts. Socrates said, “Whom, then, do I call educat ed? First, those who control circumstances in stead of being mastered by them; those who meet all occasions manfully and act in accord ance with intelligent thinking; those who are TmcjwMabKTi.afis&gu,^KflSPW ®^W^5?FSons' and things that are disagreeable; | and furthermore, those who hold their pleasures under control and are not overcome by misfor tune; finally those who are not spoiled by suc cess.’’ That is true education. If we could put. it in to effect in the world we could solve the prob lems that have so long troubled mankind. If we could learn to control circumstances, and act in telligently, we could bring our accumulated knowledge to the solution of our problems. If we could be honorable in all our dealings with men of all classes, creed or color, and treat with common sense those individuals with whom we disagree as individuals, there could be no dis sension or group hatreds to stir up the lunatic fringe, no prejudice to hamper justice. Only as we educate toward this ideal the youth, not only of our nation but the youth of the world, can we bring peace to earth and es tablish the principles in which we in our heart of hearts believe tK . ;<4Hfelr f freedom and fair play for all people. Unless we do this the world will remain a prey to war and to the am bitions of self-seeking despots who will arise fiom the ashes of bitter strife. The task is long and it is not easy but the end is worth all it may cost. Education for good, education in understanding is the long but the only way out. Playing One Against The Other The labor baiters really scored recently when they spread the word that dock workers had delayed the removal of troops from Europe. In dependent observers, studying the situation as it really existed, are confident that the strikes at the docks had not delayed any sailings, that possibly they had speeded up the homeward journey. It was explained that ships were sent back across the ocean empty, that to have load ed them and delivered the cargoes would have greatly delayed troop movements. The main reason for the delay in moving troops home can be found in high brass hat policies. Tens of thousands of troops could have been moved while the Navy was meneuvering for Navy Day on October 27th. Drew Pearson, Washington columnist, recently told about horses being loaded and shipped from Europe while the GIs who loaded them were left behind. Over here transports are used to transport race horses while GIs on the west coast are forced to catch slow trains to visit home on the Atlantic side. Another big reason for the delay in bringing the boys back home is traceable to the transfer of British ships. Our government hasn’t as yet taken sufficient action to offset the transporta tion loss. During the meantime, the common working man on the docks is being blamed for the delay. One does not have to hold a brief for the strik er, but when there are false accusations it is no more than right and just to brand the charges as false.

Orchard Grass And j Bluegrass Suggested —— Where conditions are suitable for ' tne growth of orchard grass and Ken- , tucky‘*fcluegi ass, they are recom-1 mended as superior to redtop for pas ture production, says the sixty-sev-1 enth annual report of the Agricul tural Experiment Station at State College, just released by Director L. D. Baver In a test in Haywood County, for example, 5 pounds of each of the three grasses were seeded together with a mixture of white clover and to survive in .ouKV^erj/Uk-n with th*1 more desirable grasses on the un fertilized soil where none of them made much growth. When placed on a fertilized soil, where a satisfactory growth of or chard and bluegrass could be produc ed, redtop could not survive the com petition. The report says that this test shows “the lack of response to treatment than can be expected from redtop and points to the desirability of seed ing such grasses as orchard and blue grass where conditions are made fav orable for their growth.” Recommendations for the use of redtop in the pasture have been made because of the ability of the crop to survive under adverse soil conditions. Make Cows Produce More Winter Milk —%■ -.. North Carolina dairymen are now asking what type of ration will en able dairy cows to produce the most milk during the winter months, when average production drops. John A. Arey, in charge of Exten sion Dairying at State College, says that the thing to do is to reproduce summer conditions insofar as possi ble. Just how can this be done? He suggests a succulent feed for winter in the form of silage; a sup plemental pasture of small grains, legumes, and rye grass; or such root crops as turnips or mangles. “Every farmer will find it highly profitable to provide one of these feeds or a combination for his dairy cows,” Arey says. “If the herd is too small to make a silo practical, supplement il grazing or root crops will do the job. Too many of our small herds ?o through the winter without any iucculent feed. Coarse, unpalatable hay result* In low milk production." If no succulent feed is available, the cow should be provided with 20 to 25 pounds of high-quality hay, or ail she will clean up. With succu lent feed, only about half this amount of hay is required. ‘Tftse- Important thing is to give the cow plenty of good feed,” Arey says. ‘‘As the old saying goes, profits can’t be starved out of a cow. By good feed, 1 mean leafy, pea-green hay which is pala table and of high nutritive value. I»est of our hay is coarse and poorly cured. “While good roughage is the basis of the winter ration, the cow needs about 1 pound of grain for each 3 pounds of ini lk. ___ Arey also suggest* VHat 1 hZ gflflplk kepf'cbrnfdstaciie ddring the winter months. Cold rains and wind are sure to lower milk production. Warm, well-bedded stalls are needed. The cow must be kept comfortable.
