COMMON SENSE AND WATER
WAYS.

President Kavanaugh, of the lakes
Observation-Disclosures dream,
will accomplish little by abusing
President Taft. because he thinks the
deepening and widening of the rivers
of more immediate Importance than
constructing a canal from Lake Mich
igan to the Gulf Of Mexico. Chicago
and New Orleans people and the rail-
road interests greatly prefer that the
government should begin the ex-
penditure Of hundreds of millions of
dollars digging that canal The for
mer realize 1t win greatly benefit
then, and the railroad interests think
It will prevent the government ex-
pending sums necessary to make the
Mississippi river system navigable
the year around.
Until the Ohio. Tennessee and
Cumberland rivers are canalized from
Knoxville, Nashville and Pittsburgh
to Cairo, this government will not
appropriate the money necessary to
dig a canal from Chicago to New Or
leans That would be about as wise
as the policy of McCracken county
permitting the gravel roads to go to
pieces, while II builds more in other
sections.
President Taft, with great common
sense and courage. plainly told the
lakes-to-the-gulf people, that he fav-
ors the canalization OF the Ohio and
its tributaries first. Kavanaugh at
the waterways convention at st.
Louis yesterday declared that the
president is partial to the Ohio be-
cause he lives on II. Whether he IS
or not, he has sufficient reason to
prefer the Ohio project. regardless
of personal sentiment, and that's all
there is to II.

local associations for the use of the
national stamps has been reduced
also from 20 per cent to 1914 per

cent of the gross proceeds from the
sales go to local work.
The stamps are to be designated

The day before yesterday sailors

The Carrier Boy

A NEGLECTED OPPORTUNITY.

Farmers of McCracken county,
who missed the ins'itute held here
yesterday and today, lost an oppor-
tunity to acquire professional inform
alton, which a doctor, lawyer. mer-
chant or manufacturer would not
have lost, were II in his line, at any
sacrifice. He would feel that he
could not AFFORD to lose it. OF course,
there is this to stimulate the pro-
fessional or business man: he has
competition TO meet and IL he per
mits his competitor to secure the ad-
vantage of information and exper-
fence, which he is denied, he quickly
feels the loss Of revenue.
The farmer has no such competi-
tion TO meet; and yet, his loss Is just
as material. The difference between
ten bushels to the acre and thirty
bushels to the acre is a dead loss of
twenty bushels to the acre. If the
farmer, by attending the institute
could learn a method Of raising thir-
ty bushels to the acre, whereas by
falling to attend he raises only ten.
Breeding OF stock, breeding of corn,
cultivation Of land, soil analysis. ro-
tation OF crops, market study and in
tensive farmng-all these are ques-
tons with which the farmer of today
needs to acquaint himself, If he Is to
fulfill his duty OF feeding the nation,
and incidentally reap the full profit
OF his tillage.
Our distinguished representative,
Eugene Graves. was quoted as say
ing on the floor OF the legislature at
the last session, while assisting In the
obsequies of an agriculture in the
public schools" bill, that "any seven
year-old boy reared on a farm knows
more about agriculture than all these
professors put together. Yet, the
fact remains that the seven-year-old
boys pap and grandpap and great
grandpap farmed just alike and un-
der their ministrations the land went
down in productivity from forty to
thirty, twenty-five. twenty, fifteen,
ten bushels to the acre, while these
professors by actual demonstration
have taken the same land and within
five years produced on It as heavy
crops. Of better quality, as ever
great-grandpap raised when the land
was new.

ers. who lost by their neglect OF this
opportunity, we would say nothing;
