Beautify the Highways.

The country should keep pace with
the cities in the identifying of pub
lie thoroughfares with flowers and
trees. Many of the cities and vii
lagos are taking steps to plant trees
and flowers wherever it can be done
to advantage. In some cases the
corporations are furnishing plants
to those that will plant them out.
We hear of localities in cities where
the people have been informed that
they will be given all the plants and
trees they can use. The result is
that whole streets have been beauti-
fed. Our country roads can be i'm
proved at comparatively small cost,
but it must be done Systematically.
One objection to trees by the road
side is that they shade the ground
and keep the roads from drying out
after heavy rains. This objection
is removed by planting the trees far
enough apart to allow the sun in it's
diurnal journey to shine on all sides
of them at different times. On
roads that run east and west, trees
may be planted on the northern side
quite closely without injuring the
road. The work of caring for the
roadsides is one that must either de-
volve on the authorities of the towns
or must be carried on by associations
of citizens. The task looks larger
than it really is. The weeds that
possesses so many roadsides can be
changed to a blue grass sod by now
ing the weeds for two years. Five
cents worth of nasturtium seed will
make an old stump a thing of beauty.
The time is at hand when commune
ties will attempt and accomplish
great things in this regard.

agriculture for Beginners " 1sIProving
Popular.

The new textbook for the public
schools, agriculture for Beginners"
is attracting much attention among
the teachers and even some of the
practical old farmers. Eighty-two
per cent of the population of North
Carolina is said to live in the coun-
try, yet our system of instruction
has taught a good deal of conjecture
concerning the Milky Way and neg
lected to say anything of the soil
from which the most of the children
were to get their bread. Many a
bright boy in the public schools has
learned by rot the name of every
capital, chief city, river and big
branch in Europe, and at the same
time been kept IN profound ignor-
ance of the principal of crop rota-
ton or any ideas of plant food.
This book will be the first step to-
wards laying the foundations of a
practical, serviceable and useful
course of study for the schools. 1t
is the first step for the boys. The
first step for the girls will be an
elementary textbook on cooking,
sewing and housekeeping. How
many girls have you seen stand up
and spell every hard word in Web
ster's dictionary, hundreds of them
they would never hear used in after
life?

More CottOn-The South's Need for
Additional Labor.

The Textile Recorder, of ,Manches-
ter, England, publishes an article on
the subject of cotton, written by
Henry G. Kittredge, of Boston. Mr..
Kittredge argues that the demand
for cotton exceeds the supply, and
that this condition will probably con-
tinue for some time to come. Mr..
Kittredge estimates that the con
sumption at the present time re-
quires 100000 bales of 500 pounds
each. This is, of course, the worlds
consumption, and to meet it he
thinks the American crop should
should be now not less than 12,000,-
600 bales. Mr.. Kittredge goes on to
say that with the same increase for
the next sixteen years as for the last
sixteen. the consumptive demand
will become fully 600 bales. He
is right on this proposition, and has
probably made an underestimate, for
in the manufacturing world new uses
for cotton are being found every
day. The mercerized staple is being
worked up into all varieties of wool
en- and silk fabrics, and the texture
and finish are such that in some
cases only an expert can detect the
difference. The me~rcerization of
cotton alone will result in a greatly
increased demand for the staple.
Mr.. Kittredge, however, is wrong
in his view that the United States
is near it's limit of productiveness.
There are cotton lands in the South
capable of being worked up to a
crop output of 2O,OOO,OOO bales or
more with a sufficient supply of la
Dor. What the South needs and
must have to produce this increased
cotton crop is a liberal influx of the
better class of immigrants. With
more people to take up the lands the
South could easily keep up with the
demand for more cotton. The prob
lem which Mr.. Kittredge presents of
an insufficient supply of cotton is
easy of solution. The South has the
land from which to produce it. 1t
wants a thrifty class of immigrants
to settle upon these lands. Give us
the new population and a crop of
2O,O00,O0O bales will be considered
a matter of small consequence

CHRISTMAS "BARRlNG OUT"
A Strange Custom of schooIboys and
Teachers.

A Strange Custom of SchOoIbOys and
Teachers.
Barring OUT was one of the Christ
mas customs greatly in vogue in Eng
land three centuries ago 1t is Gus
tom that obtains not only in England,
but to some extent in our own country,
to this day, although it is not particu-
larly Christmas custom in our coun-
try. Barring out" was the keeping of
the teacher or master out of the school
house until he yielded to such terms
as the boys of his school chose to die
tate. If the boys were able to keep the
teacher out of the schoolhouse for
three days and nights he was bound by
all the laws of the custom to come
to terms with the boys and to grant
them all that they demanded in the
way of half holidays and abbreviated
lesson hours and extended recesses.
witted the boys and regained posses
sion of the schOolroom, the chagrined
pupils were bound to submit to such
terms as he chose to dictate. AS these
terms usually included the severe
trouncing of all the boys having any
thing to do with the barring out of the
teacher. the boys were ON the alert to
keep him from defeating them. More
than one Christmas time of rejoicing
has been turned into time of weeping
and wailing on the part of boys whom
some barred out teacher has defeated.
