Improper Feeding Dnd Teething TrOu-
hIpS

1t is now a established fact
that the terrible death rate among
babies under year old is due to
hOwei troubles due 10 improper feed
ing. The lining OF the digestive tract
IS very delicate and more susceptible
during the first year of the Aaby's
life than at any later period The
natural food for baby is. of course,
mothers milk. No patent food or
preparation OF COWS milk can quite
take its place The death rate among
atiticialiy fed babies is as might be
expected. much higher than among
those breast-fed. y poorly nourished
baby has small chance of resisting
the great army of disease germs
that are attacking him al all times.
dpon all sides Babies that manage
TO live through their babyhood, when
subjected TO improper food and at
joyful children that they might have
been had they been given the right
kind Of food during the first year.
There is always considerable anX-
iety upon the part of every mother
when the teething period IS approach
ing. All sorts of ills are expected so
that the dangerous second summer
holds the mother in a thrall of fear.
II the baby has been properly fed
and cared for up to the teething pc
riod-the statistics tell us that most
babies are well at birth,-then the
teething period should not contain
all the horrors attributed to 1t. In
healthy children there is often fret.
fulness and poor sleep for two OF
three nights, there may be loss OF
appetite, and often slight fever
there may be some symptoms of in.
digestion, but the other aggravated
symptoms attributed to teething are
entirely due to indigestion as the re.
cult of bad feeding.-Mrs. f. T.

Draining Wet lands

The final drainage of wet lands is
the problem. How can it be done?
Not best be done, for all are ready to
admit that the tile is the best drain
age. But while the scheme that is
now upon foot TO add the manufact-
ure of drain tile to an already es-
tablished industry of brick making
is sure TO materially c.ieapen the first
cost of tile, yet this cost Will be still
beyond the immediate reach of many
of the purchasers. Open bitches are
compared with their cost and very
inconvenience. so inferior that il is
hoped that not many Will be compelled
to resort TO them for long While not
so permanent nor quite so efficient as
tile, very good results can be obtain
ed by what is known as pole drains
These are constructed by digging n
ditch, such as would be needed for
tile, and about the same depth saw
from two to .ncee feet. The deeDer
the ditch the further apart they can
be for efficiency. A ditch an average
depth of three feet. would easily drain
30 feet upon each side. so these could
be placed 100 feet apart After dig
ging the ditch with as much fall as
possible, then lay continuous line
of green pine poles IN each side the
the bottom of the ditch and another
so as to partially cover, but not fill
the space between. If available.
place few inches of dead grass or
straw on top of these poles, then fill
the earth back lin the ditch on ton of
the poles. Such drains, costing moth
ing for material. can be cheaply
constructed, and will last for quite a
while. I have seen some such that
had been in operation for 20 years
and were still giving satisfaction.
They will at least last long enough
not only to pny for their cost. but
to more thar pay for their ultimate
substitution with burned tile.-D N

Could Eradicate Ticks for Less than
They Cost in Five Years.

Those living some distance from
the quarantine line can not be made
to realize these facts. but those lfv-
ing along the quarantine line need
not be told of the injury sustained
from the restrictions placed on the
marketing OF their cattle. In these
cases it is not al all rare for cattle
OF the same quality to sell for from
50 10 $40 a head less just below the
line than few miles away in the
free area
This is one form Of the tremen-
dous tribute which we pay annually
to the cattle tick. These ticks could.
in five years, be completely eradicat-
ed for less money than the imposing
of this quarantine line causes the
South during that time and yet be-
cause OF our Indifference 1--WE use the
term Indifference because it sounds
little more polite than stupidity
we go on, year after year, submit
ting to these heavy losses when Il
has been proved beyond doubt that
1t is easy. practicable and profitable
to eradicate the ticks. Yet there are
people who call themselves intelli-
gent, who pretend to believe that the
ticks can not be eradlcated, or OPP
pose permitting the National and the
state governments helping us to do
it.-Raleigh IN. CD Progressive

Cereal Crops for Cover and Grazing

The crops generally used for fall
crops are crimson clover, the vetch-
es, bur clover and rye. oats. wheat
and barley are also sometimes used.
but generally these crops are sowed
summer, rather than as cover and
grazing crops. although they serve
more or less for both these purposes.
In fact, for grazing purposes, if the
in the following order of merit for
winter grazing: Barley, wheat, rye
(SCuthern grown) and oats. it is
useless TO SOW barley on poor land
ton i'm placing ii first among the
cereals for furnishing winter grazing
We also regard wheat as superior to
rye or oats. but it also requires ricn-
not necessarily as rich land as is re-
qufred for barley.
For winter cover crop and for
grazing these cereals should be SOW
ed moderately early We are often
asked If they may be put i'm at the
land cultivation of the cotton but
while this may be successfully done
in many cases, we advise sowing
them. as cover crops and for grazing,
the latter part of September or first
half Of October. When sowed in
cotton. we believe 1t usually better
to SOW Immediately after the first
picking rather than at the last work
ing.
AS hardy cover and winter graz
ing crop for general use on rather
thin land. Southern-grown rye is
probably the most reliable of the
cereals. The Northern-grown seed
give plants that seem to lie on the
ground more and are not nearly so
satisfactory for grazing.
We regard oats as of the least
value for winter grazing. but in the
lower half or two-thirds of our terri
tory they are the best for maturing
for seed or grain.-Raleigh IN. CO,

TWENTY CENTS COTTON.

I'm an interview to the newspaper
men OF Florence several days ago
United States Senator f. d. Smith.
expressed his belief that cotton would
bring twenty cents this season. pro-
vided the planters OF the South sold
their staple with a business-like meth
cd. He strongly impresses on the
farmers the necessity of spreading the
sale OF their cotton over the entire
year, and not TO food the market dur
ing the frs' months OF the season.
The Southern farmers, and not the
spectators. should control the price
of cotton and the only method by
which this can be done is FOR the plan
ters to stick together in their determi-
nation to market their cotton slowly.
Senator Smith advises marketing
of 10 per cent of the yield each month
wherever this is possible and there
are very few reasons why 1t is not
possible every where.
The predictions o. Senator Smith
and his statements are based on sound
business facts and on reports from all
OF the principal cotton growing states
Should the farmers take his advice, the
prosperity of the South would be
greater than ever before and the farm
er would reap the rich harvest that
heretofore the speculator has reaped
