AT PLANTING TIME.

Comparison Of Methods With Corn.
Some Superior Sorts.
By A. NJ. TEN EYCK. Kansas experi
ment station.
In a comparison of methods of plant
ing. as an average for four seasons
surface planted corn has yielded 6G5
bushels more corn and 4G9 pounds
more stover per acre than the listed
corn. The surface planting has given
the best results in the wetter seasons
while the drier seasons favor the list
ing method of planting at the Kansas
station.
In preparing the seed bed for corn
as an average for four years, the
method of listing early in the spring
and splitting the ridges at planting
time has given an increased yield of
SOC bushels per acre when compared
with the land which received no early
cultivation. The early listing has given
better results than early disking. and
the listing has> also conserved more
water In the soil than the disking.
Corn planted in cold. wet soil In the

It is unfortunate that there
should be a fever scare at Winthrop
college. The wise thing for the board
to have done when the fever broke
out would have been to close the
school until the first of January and
if necessary extended the session next
spring a few weeks longer. This
would have given opportunity to in
vestieate thoroughly all probable or
possible causes of iufection.
About half the girls have gone
home and those that are left at the
college had as we'll be home for the
good they are doing in their studies.
It is impossible to get work out of
pupils that wall be at all satisfactory
under conditions at Winthrop.
We are glad, however, to note that
no new cases are reported and that
none have terminated fatally.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT.

We note that the Civic ASSOCIATION
is to meet Wednesday afternoon at
1 O o'clock for the election Of officers
and the collection Of dues.
This is a good time to talk about
civic Improvement. More important
than talk, however, is action, We
ought to do something. No better
time to do it can be found than NOW.
We believe our ladies when they
began the agitation of organizing
sent to Anderson for some one to
come down and talk to the ladies of
Newberry. She came and talked and
our association was organized.
We would suggest that the Civic
Association Of Newberry now send a
delegation to Anderson and that the
mayor and two or three aldermen 60
along and take a picture Of the An
derson public square and see how it
is kept and then come back and look
at our public square and take a pic
ture Of it. The Anderson public
square was a worse looking object
than ours before the ladies' took hold
of it. That is if it is possible for
public square to be more unattractive
than ours. Ours is now a wagon
yard and standing and resting place
for hacks and could scarcely be made
worse in appearance. Anderson's is
now a beautiful and attractive park
and is neatly kept The monument
is in thte centre and is also neatly
kept.
We have more space and could
make beautiful park and there is NJ
more laudable work in which o1lr
civic association could engage. We
need to pay more attention to the
beautiful Why not begin NOW.

The committee appointed to look
into school conditions in Newberry
and submit report has done its work.
The report is published. Two plans
are submitted. Either one can be car
ried out without an increase Of taxes.
Even if taxes have to be increased
something should be done.
The report is concise and gives
full information as to present condi-
tions.
The plan to erect two buildings in
different parts of the city-one for
high school and one for lower grades
seems to be the favorite with the
committee It would be better to have
the high school department in a sep
arate building.
The present facilities as pointed out
BY the committee were only adequate
nearly twenty years ago and in that
time the city has more than doubled
in population and We have neglected
our schools. This should not be per-
mitted longer to be the case.
Cur whole system needs reorganiz-
ing. There should be a principal
with living salary and the salary of
the superintendent should be increas-
ed to $500 and the teachers should
have not less than $50 to $50 pei
month and then We should have and
could command efficient and trained
teachers who should be elected On
their merits and for no other reason.
The people are ready to furnish the
facilities and if the committee will
submit either plan to the people the
people will approve it.
