A Municipal Flag for Edgerton.

The proposition that the common
council adopt a municipal flag is one
that is not altogether sentimental in
character, although in origin and pur-
pose, flag, whether it be national or
municipal, is primarily symbol of pa
triotism or civic pride. There are men
who plume themselves on cynicism
that strips away all ''shams" and false
pretensions, and to whom flag is moth
ing but painted rag on a stick, but the
doings Of their kind are not recorded in
history. The great nations have been
built and defended by men, great and
humble, whose ideals were symbolized
in the banners around which the soldiers
rallied. The libraries and parks, the
boulevards, hospitals, and other institu-
tions to which modern urban jewellers
point with pride, are rot the work of
men who sheer at flags or who avail
themselves of the opportunity offered by
proposition like that which has been
made to the council to drag out their
pet scandals for an airing. .'c.r
But, apart from the primary, albeit
sentimental, value of a municipal flag
there is a practical value as we'll Cities,
as we'll as individuals, profit by keeping
their names before the world, and the
municipality that has banner trade
mark, if you please-that is calculated
to attract and hold attention will lose
nothing by it. Upon stationery used by
business men, where the emblem of mu-
nicipal pride can be shown, it will. if
adopted, come in time to be known as
Edgerton's distinctive flag, the banner
of modern city that wishes to be in the
running with other american cities of
her class and is not averse to advertis-
ing that fact. BY all means, adopt some
kind of an emblem and run it up to the
masthead.

WHEN in the history of our country
has a domestic problem of such magni-
tude as the race question presented it.
self to our people? In reviewing the
atrocities of the past year which have
been perpetrated upon the American
negro it will make a person who has
genuine human instincts stand aghast.
Lynching the negro and causing his
death in almost every cruel way has been
practically an every-d day occurrence in
the South The white man brought the
negro from slavery and in so doing as
sumed responsibility of caring for both
his mental and moral welfare, for previ-
Gus 10 the time Of gaining his freedom
he had not even a meagre opportunity
for educational enlightenment. Why
should the negro advance morally when
tendencies of the white man with whom
he associates are to place his chances for
social advancement far below his own?
II matters along this question are not
speedily adjusted the people of this
country will soon find themselves on the
brink of race war wherein one race
will surely find itself entirely bereft of
the other ..''r..s. m

Deem Flowing.

Much of the advice in favor of deep
blowing is out of place on hill farms
with the topsoil only six to eight inches
deep. Flowing which brings much
subsoil to the top is not desirable But
there are many fields with good depths
of rich, dark loan that have never
been properly worked. Such lands
need never be called worn out until
thorough blowing and narrowing again
has enabled the plant roots to get at
some of the locked-up fertility In the
bottom layers. Simply to bring up the
lower soil and then to turp it down
again the following season is not need
ed so much as to thoroughly twist and
fine the soil, exposing it to air and
SUI. For potatoes and root crops deep
blowing is desirable, also to loosen the
soil for root and tuber growth.-Amer-
lcan Cult1vator.
