The Manufacturers Record, accord.
ing to its custom at this season. has
prepared a CAREFUL review Of railroad
construction during the year in the
South. together with Missouri. Indian
Territory and Oklahoma. The results
show that since January last there
were built 1924 8 miles, or about 200
miles more than the previous year and
about 1922 8 miles will probably be
built during 1905 in these States and
Territories. OF the new constr uctiou
during 1905 the amount credited to
the South exclusive of Missouri, H.
dian Territory and Oklahoml is 224S.4
miles, and the amount to be built In
that section next year is 3508 miles.
The estimates for 1906 do not include
figures for new corporations which
have not began construction, though
in some instances contracts have been
let. In Virginia probably two hun
dred miles will be built.

Thomas M. Tice, as a Farmer.

Editor of the DEsIoCRAT:--
DEAR SIR:-Your readers know Thomas
M. Tice, OF Deerfeld, Cumberland county
best as dealer in his stock horses, cattle
and hogs, and most of them know that he
sells thousands Of animals yearly, mostly
at public sale. But the writer doubts il
many Of them bave an ideaof the extent Of
his farming operations.
His farm, at Deerfeld, contains oyer
five hundred acres, two hundred Of which
is in hay and sgrain and one hundred
and forty-fye in white potatoes.
He has put more potatoes in the
cold damp ground as seed than thousands
Of farmers, who think they are large potato
growers, will harvest as matured crop. His
one hundred and forty-6ve acre field fs
healthy and perfect as a picture. Forty
eight acres will be ready to dig by the time
this artic'e is printed. On June II he was
planting twenty five acres more to potatoes
AS the early potatoes are drg out he will
plant potatoes again, for seed purposes
It requires forty horses and fifteen
monthly hands to do his farm work, besides
much day help. There are few men who
would attempt, or who could transact the
diversified business carried on by Mr..
Tice, and he does it all we'll. His farm
shows the master hand at the head, and is
beautiful sight to behold.
have been told that the name Of Deer
field originated years ago. when that sec
tion was out to the commons when man
bought up large tract Of land, and he
gave the enormous sum Of seyenty-fve
cents per acre, and his friends, because Of
the extravagant price paid, referred 70 it as
the dear-feds. This | tell sas related
to me.
Mr.. Tice has great capacity for business,
and his neighbors say he is always under
control, shat he does not lose himself in the
mauy and various demands of his busi-
ness. E. W. G.

RUSSIA LACKS A LEADER.

The mu;iny a. sveabors Is said 10
be suppressed, and the leaders Of the
government policy are again optimis-
tic Of hnal victory
The situation in Russia seems Ia be
that the dissatisfaction with existing
conditions Is general and has pene-
trated to every stratum Of society. All
classes are affected but a leader is
lacking around whom all the disaf-
fected elements can center. Reyo'
lutionay outbreaks occur periodical
Iy They are quickly suppressed be-
cause Of the lack of a great organiza-
lion TO direct them. But some day
leader may arise. with the genius
" a Napoleon. or a Garihaldi, and
then Russian patriotism will be tri-
umphanL
The Russian situation has frequ-
entity been compared 10 that Of France
previous to the revolution Of 1889.
Ths lesson is conveyed 10 Russia
IN that comparison, that free ma
ton is not created In one day. II was
a comparatively long time from the
assault upon the Bastille to the proc
lamaton Of the French republic. The
destruction OF the engine Of oppres-
sion took place on the lith day OF
July, 1883. and that was tho begin
ming Of the breaking Of the Bourbon
yoke, but Louis XVI fingered among
the rebellious subjects for almost two
years before ne made his unsuccess-
ml attempt to escape. The constitu'
ton was not adopted until September
1871. and the republic was not an es'
tahllshed fact until September, 1872
more than three years from the day
the Bastille had been destroyed.
The quelling Of the local disturb
ances IN Russia does not improve ths
general situation. When the leader
arises who knows how to organize
the elements the real struggle vii
come. the outcome Of which Is no
uncertain.

TO BENEFIT CHILDREN,

Rowland Godfrey Freeman. writing
in the Medical Record on the physical
care Of school children advances some
IDEAS that seem to us TO be commend
able, as based upon common sense and
experience. He suggests that school
buildings should be outside the cities,
bur yet az near as possible 20 the
homes of the children. This is. Of
course. not practical In large cities, but
the school houses can always have am
pie grounds. and thereby the object Of
placing them outside the city will be
obtained. lie further says: There
should be short periods Of study fire.
quent recesses and ample time for a
substantial midday meal. The harder
work should come during the morning
hours, the lighter work IN the after
noon hours. After this the children
should play out Of doors. The IDEAL
public school should care for the chn.
dren as many hours a day az is prsc-
ucahlc outdoor play should pre-
cede study study hours should be
short. with frequent recesses. Nutiit-
Gus food should be furnished the schol-
airs M noon, IN the afternoon the
easier subjects. the manual work. and
preparation for the next day should
occupy the time. There should be OPP
portuulty FOR outdoor exercise under
supervision until late afternoon. IN
every school strict examination should
he made for any evidence OF contagious
diseases. Al children with colds and
contagious erupuons should be eNclud'
ca from school" Everyone Of these
suggestions IL worthy Of consideration
