THE latest phase of the cotton bagging CUES

NEED OF INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.
There has been considerable rivalry be-
tween some of the aspiring cities of Texas
for the location of the medical annex of
the State University, it seems probable
that Galveston will secure it. The mat
ter of site is of little moment, but the
question of the multiplication of schools
facilitating the making of doctors and
lawyers and members of other learned
profession admits of discussion.
Texas as a state has done little in the
way of providing manual instruction for
her sons, and no provision is made for
her daughters. The Agricultural and
Mechanical college at Bryan is the only
school, and its methods have been the
subject of harsh criticism.
The states of the Northwest have in
this, as in other things, shown them
selves alert to learn lessons of proges-
sion, and the new state of North Dakota
has set apart some of its school land for
the support of g system of manual train
ing schools, and secured its perpetuity
by a clause inserted in the constitution.
1t is apparent to the most casual OBJ
server that indisposition and incapacity
for work, together with an almost crlm-
inal facility for graduating doctors and
lawyers has crowded these professions,
while it also exposes life and property TO
the mercies OF men half equipped, and
whose knowledge of their own incompe-
alone qualities one for conscientious dis
charge of duty.
The same casual observation will show
that the ranks of mechanics and farmers,
Of men and women skilled in handcraft,
are each year more and more recruited
from foreigners; and so it is that, by in
efficiency of school training, there is be-
ing brought into a place of power masses
who are alien to republican institutions
and who, slowly it may be, but surely,
are sapping the foundations of govern
mental life. If to attain place in the
learned professions were less facile; if
legislation III Texas in educational mat
tiers looked more to training that would
make men and women useful workers in
life's workshops, it IS reasonable to be-
lieve that a modicum Of doctors
and lawyers would suffice. and
the convict labor question become
easier of solution, because that skilled
labor is seldom idle, and q state of indus
try is not favorable to the development
OF criminal tendencies. The value of a
skilled hand joined to an informed mind
can scarcely be overestimated, and while
not disparaging any legislative action of
the past, it is urged that the time is ripe
for legislation that looks to educating the
children of the state, hand as well as
head.

THE FARNER'S OPPORTUNITY.

1 lie F-1Lt-HEIC > OIEOH CLNIII.
Baltimore Manufacturer Record {:
There are innumerable ways in which the
farmers of the South, and especially
those living near large and busy cities,
can make themselves independent, just
as there are ways in which man in bust
ness can make himself independent. 1t
is not the farmer owning the best land
who makes the most money any more
than it is the business man who has the
finest store or factory who succeeds best.
In each case success comes to him who
strikes a popular chord and keeps himself
in tune to it.
IN every city are people who are no.
tional in some direction or other, who
are willing TO pay literally for the sake
of petting their notions. What the farm
or should do is to study and anaIyze these
notions. A few years ago a young man
just graduated from a well known college
found himself much broken in health,
without business and with only $1,000
or so from a recent legacy. His only
alternative seemed to be to buy a farm.
AS soon as he was settled on his land he
began, with his other work, the careful
rearing Of pigs. He kept them in clean
pens, fed them on selected food, and
soon had a fine collection of porlzers.
Some thirty miles off was large city.
BY careful inquiry he learned of several
persons in that city who were fond of
pork yet who were afraid of the stuff
usually sold in the public market. The
young farmer promptly struck a bargain
with these people to supply them with
fresh and salt pork, sausages and lard at
very Temunerative prices. These Gus
toners soon brought more, and as bust
ness increased the farmer enlarged his
facilities and added to his other pro-
ducts the choicest butter that hands could
make.
This young man, almost an invalid and
with scarcely money enough to buy a
poor farm, now has an annual in
come of SIS, 900 or more, not be-
cause his farm is snch a fine one, or
because he is q skilled agriculturIst,
but because he hunteu up those people
who had weaknesses for the very best
pork and the choicest of butter, and
tickled their palates with just what they
wanted.
Throughout the South are many
farmers who have every advantage that
this young man had, and who can, by
little expenditure of energy, line their
pockets with gold by working some no.
ton for all there Is in it. They NAV
make the choicest of butter, fatten the
incest pork, raise the most luscious fruit,
or possibly raise and cure tea equal to
the best Chinese article. 1t makes but
little difference what they do as long as
they are always sure that the quality of
their product is the very best, and that
they use the same skill and acuteness to
ind customers for their products that
storekeeper or any other commercial man
would The trouble with farmers, as a
class, is that they forget that it takes
almost as much skill to sell crop as it
does to raise it.
