ENCOURAGE THE CHILDREN
Cultivate in Them a Taste for
Reading--FirstG Give Them Their
Local Newspaper, then Good
Books and other Wholesome
Literature.
lStateSyille Landmark |

Says an exchange: Z" Teach the
boys and girls to read newspapers
not sensational, trashy, smutty sheets,
but clean, respectable, plainspoken
papers. 1t will do them more good
than can be calculated. 1t will make
them intelligent. 1t will give them
food tor thought. 1t will cultivate a
taste for more extensive reading. 1t
will cause them to love home better.
1t will make their intellect clearer and
their hearts happier and better. Then
as they grow in wisdom, they should
also be supplied with frst-class maga-
zines and good books. Opportunities
will be worth more to them than mints
of gold. BY all means cultivate
taste for reading among the children
and good local paper is the best to
begin with, as the children can there
read about things that are familiar to
them-about their town and county,
and concerning men and things of
which they have personal knowledge.
From this they can go on step by step
until they rank among the most in
telligent people OF the land"
There is world of truth in this.
An Iredell teacher came into Tie
Landmark Office recently to pay a
subscription for one of his pupils, and
spoke on this very subject. He said
he could tell in an instant when child
came to his school whether its parents
took newspaper. If they did and
the child could read, teaching it was
easy. If the child was not accustomed
to reading newspapers it had no general
information on any subject and the
work of imparting information to it
was burdensome and very difficult.
Hence this teacher had advised all
children who came to him to urge
their parents to take a newspaper
some paper anyway.-but always give
the home paper the preference.
If the many people who are too
poor take a newspaper" and consider
Its luxury that can easily be dispensed
with when " hard times" come, would
consider for moment of what they
are deprlving not only themselves but
their children, we think hardly any
body who can read would be without
one.
The extract above says, teach the
boys and girls to read newspapers. a.
The teaching is not necessary. All
they want is chance If the news
paper is in the family they'll read it.

FARMERS AND PEANUTS.

Edward Atkinson's recent letter
about peanuts, which the Democrat
fastened to publish as soon as it came
out, has attracted much attention.
The subject of peanut culture will be
more carefully studied now than it
has been. In fact, it begins to look
like there is a great deal of money in
peanuts for some one. And as the
Democrat takes every advanced step
possible in the interest of the farmers,
it gives, as far as possible, circulation
to whatever it conceives to be to their
best interest.
There is undoubtedly big money in
peanuts and the closer the farmer can
get down to the independent handling
of this product, the nearer will he
come to getting the money out of
them which he is entitled to. With
this in view, we print on our first page
of this issue an article on peanuts, by
Judge Walter Clark, Of the Supreme
Court, and call the attention Of farmers
to the valuable suggestions it contains.
1t is quite reasonable for the farmers
of every community to establish fac
tory for cleaning peanuts, and accord
ing to Judge Clark's figures, it will
cost comparatively very little. Let
farmers investigate the matter and do
it in a business-like way. 1t will do
no good to "talk it over" with neigh
bors and stop there.
Talk it over in dead carnestness-
such earnestness as will mean action.
See the great and abundant supplies in
this section 1t is almost impossible
TO believe the facts about the great
change that has come over this com
munity during the past four years
/ Then, think what would be the still
/ better condition Of our farmers if, ad
ded to their abundant home supplies
they could get jus, twice as much 70
their peanuts. They would be able ,t
pay back debts and then have a sur
plus. The Democrat believes it i
possible tor the farmers to force them
selves from the peanut oppression b.
establishing factories as Judge ClarI
suggests. Neck Demotya
