Turn a Deaf Ear to the Man Who
Pleads Drunkenness AS An Ex-
cuse.

Charlotte Observer.
When man of good standing and
peaceable disposition except when
intoxicated, and who at times gets on
protracted sprees, commits a violent
assault, threatening to kill while on
one OF his debauehes, should the fact
that he was under the influence OF
liquor at the time be any excuse be-
fore the law for his conduct? The
law says drunkenness cannot excuse
crime. Why then should the law be
appealed to in a case of this kind to
let the offending person go unpun-
ished? Would not the friends of such
a person do him a greater service by
allowing him to be punished for an
outrageous offense committed while
und the influence OF liquor-an offence
which he would not stoop to while
sober?
The best course to save such a man
from himself, as well as to protect the
public from his violence when he is
drinking, would be to infiiet such Sc
we're punishment on him for infrac-
ton OF the law as would make him
afraid to drink. Knowing what effect
lntoxicants had On himself and feel
ing sure that severe punishment
would follow a breach OF the peace
committed when drunk he would be
more apt to deter such man from
drinking than the leniency of the
courts and the moral Iecturing of
judges.
There would be fewer crimes COM
mltted by men while under the infiu-
ence OF liquor if it were thoroughly
understood that drunkenness in fact
as we'll as in law was no excuse for
crime.

otherwise.
One of the best forage crops is rape.
1t yields heavy crops of excellent feed.
1t is especially valuable for hogs and

rape, particularly if a little grain is
given in addition. Rape should be

four pounds to the acre broadcasted

Flying Machines at
Appalachian Exposition
Pleasure and Amusement Features
Are Being Given Special
Attention.

Dirigible ballooning is one form OF
sport that has been practiced but
little in the south, where the ordinary
balloon ascension, with it's attendant
parachute leap, has lost all of its nov
city, and now attracts but little at
tention. It will, however, have it's
innings at the Appalachian EXPOSE
ton at Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. II to
Oct. u, next, where it will form one
of the features of the amusement pro-
gram.
Flights by large gas-inflated bal
looms controlled by steering appara-
tus will be made from the exposition
grounds over the city at height not
too great to be plainly visible to the
naked eye. The time of the flights
will be determined by atmospheric
conditions, for the trips will be made
when these are most favorable, If at
night large search lights will be car
ried in the balloons. Flights by avi-
ators in aeroplanes will be given, also
for the first time in Tennessee with
one exception.
On Chilhowee lake in the center
of the exposition grounds special
aquatic attractions will be seen.
These will include exhibitions by mo-
tor boats, both submarine and sur.
face, in which the government models
will be exhibited. For those who en-
joy thrills of excitement there will
be the latest devices for shooting
the chutes," making the dip" and
riding the ocean wave"
A midway" will be there, ON
either side of which will be found
shows, some instructive, others mirth-
producing, but all of the greatest
interest and of the highest type.
There will be fleet of the ships OF
the desert, groaning camels, that will
provide their riders with all of the
sensations of the storm-tossed mar
liner, barring seasickness, as they
rise from and return to their knees
during the process of embarking and
disembarking the passengers. Var
led sorts and conditions of entertain
ment will be furnished for the var.
ious classes Of expositionists.

On his return from Panama Editor Joe
Chapple, of the National Magazine, pro-
ceeds to prepare an exhaustive and elab-
ately Illustrated account of the pilgrim
age to the Isthmus, under the simple i'm
pressive title, "The Panama Canal AS It
Is" The article is preceded by can In
dustrial Epic" vertiable prose poem,
contributed by Professor L. 81. Bailey,
OF Cornell University, who was on the
Isthmus with the editorial party. The
readers are furnished with a specially
prepared, two-page map in colors, which
has been pronounced far superior to any
thing yet published. The map alone is
well worth the entire price of the
magazine, because it tells at glance the
course of the Canal, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, and gives concise outlines of
locks and dam. The Gatun locks are
shown in red, and the forms of the huge
monoliths stand out plainIy-in fact.

along Panamanian streets in the curious
little cabs, or dining with the Iaborers
or in state at Hotel Tivoli-it is all the
same to editor joe Every phase of the
work is touched upon and the description
includes an appropriate historic outline,
going back to the days of Balboa.
The article is divided into the follow
ing parts for May:
The Giant Locks of the Canal,
The Man-made Canyon at Culebra,
An Industrial Epic,
The Conquest of the Panama Jungle,
The Isthmus in the Days of Balboa,
In the Days of De Lesseps,

These will be followed by the remand

FIG. xI.-HoGs IN RAPE FIELD.
acre are used when sown broadcast or
half as much when drilled. It can be
sown with a grain drill by stopping up
every other hole. The saccharine va
rieties make the best feed If all the
sorghum is not used as green feed it
can be cut and shocked for winter use.
It will have to be left in the field until
needed for feeding, as it spoils when
stacked.
A Good Forage Crop.
Indian corn makes good forage If
sown thickly enough. The largest
planter plates should be used, together
with the fastest drill attachment, as
thick planting makes small and tender
stalks. Corn which has well devel-
oped ears is often used as a combined
grain and forage crop for 'hogging
down" The hogs are turned into the
field in the fall and left until ready
for market. A few shotes turned in
later will clean up all the corn which
the fat hogs have missed. Lambs get
a great deal Of feed out of the corn
field in the fall, especially if rape has
been sown at the last cultivation, and
do little damage to the corn.
Excellent fall feed can be obtained
by sowing rape or a mixture of rape
and clover with the small grain in the
spring. If there is moisture enough
in the ground after the grain crop is
removed a splendid crop of fall forage
will be available in three or four
weeks. Often the fall feed IS worth
more than the grain.
An excellent forage crop for pigs is
Canada field peas. They should be
sown in the spring at the rate of one
half bushel to the acre, together with
two bushels of oats. If sown alone
the rate of seeding should be two
bushels to the acre The hogs may be
turned on when the peas are in the
dough stage. In the southern parts
Of the United States cowpeas and soy
beans may be used in the same way.
Millet yields heavily and makes al
good quality Of hay. 1t is also used
occasionally as a green feed. Millet
IS dangerous feed for horses, but
may be fed to other classes of stock
with safety.
Succulent Crops For Winter.
While not strictly forage crops, root
crops, pumpkins and squashes answer
the same purpose. Sugar beets, man.
gels and turnips yield heavily, but re-
quire considerable attention during
the growing season. Carrots are es-
pecially good as a horse feed. Squashes
yield as many tons of dry matter to
the acre as roots, are just as good
feed and are much more easily grown.
Pumpkins can be grown in large guam
titles in the cornields with little ex-
ira labor
