PUTTHE BOYS ON THE FARM.

PUI HE BOYS On The FARM.
In the last issue of the WATCH
MAN we presented the idea that
youthful criminals mi G t be
bound out to good farmers and
made to work, and quartered at
the county homes until suitable
homes could be found for them.
This was offered as a cheaper and
practical substitute for a reforma-
tory. We are pleased to note that
since u last paper we do not
find ourselves at all lonesome.
A gentleman writing to TIE States
Vile Landmark says:
"While the State may estab-
lish a reformatory, the commits
sioners in the large counties where
there are large towns or cities,
had better put up a s5ocka6e, or
erect an Institution where the
youths can be employed and made
to work at something. The small
counties near by could send their
bad boys and some women and
girls could be taken care of. The
laws should be 90 modified that
the mayors of towns and the JUS
1tices could commit them for Of
fences that are now generally al
lowed to 60 unpublished because
of the tender years of the offend
ers, and the chain gang looks like
it was too bad q place for them
If the commissioners of Iredell
county cannot aff,rd to purchase
the land for such an institution
near Sta~tesville, the county owns
the land at the county home. Put
up quarters there and pnt it in
care of the keeper"
- And the Raleigh News and OBJ
server one of the States leading
papers, says:
"No doubt every one of the
boys who have broken a law IN a
moment of temptation could find
a home in the family of same
good, thrifty, handwriting farm
er, who would bring him up prac-
tically as q member of the family"
The fact that such a course has
not been practiced heretofore is
no argument against it now, in
fact it is the prudent wise thing
to do. If such a course was enact
ed into a law and properly and
vigorously enforced, we believe it
would remove both the cause and
the need for a reformatory. There
is nothing so conducive to good
citizenship as industry and the
Sinking of it is just to the con-
trary, "Idleness is the DEVILS
workshop" is an old but true say
ing and one that is powerfully
convincing, There is nc reason
why young people should not
work but there is no reason why
they shouldb be sent to a reforma-
tory to work. It seems to US to
be as much disgrace and shame
attached to an inmate of a re-
formatory as being a convict CT
a member of a chain gang. The
isolation Of the criminals is a far
superior method than herding
them. A boy alone cannot learn
other boys mischief nor Will he
learn any. The more we think of
the subject the more we r con-
WINGED that the best thing posi-
BILE for the boy and the State is
to try him on the farm first, and
If it fails to improve him, the
chain gang and pen are none too,
good for him. Another point fa-
vorable to the farm idea just at
this time is, it will in a msasu re
help supply the much needed la
Dor in the fields, a kind Of home.
made supply. Put the bad boys
on the farm, a majority of our
haat citizans were raised there.
