Educate the Farmer

Tliere is a widespread opinion that
6he American farmer is not the farmer
he ought to be. 1t is said that his
brother in Germany, in France, in Eng
land, and in other countries raises more
wheat and oats and rye and potatoes to
acre than he does. Doctrinares in
the agricultural department. of the State
agricult ural colleges, of course, know it
all because they have the books. But
the American farmer has the experience.
II they could but pool their knowledge
and experience these two simples would
no doubt result in a rare compound OF
success. 1t is said that farming, as in
many other things, the American farm
er is was; eful; that he only gets from
one-half to one-third as much as is har-
vested on an equal area of land in other
countries, and Casandras of the press are
prohesying that we are nearing the end
Of our row in farm production. 1t is
interesting to know that great railroad
companies have decided that they can
advantageously educate farmers along
their rOules, and that a special tram
bearing members of the Farmers Insti-
tute will be run. Every farmer should
attend these instructive lectures.

Hartford Jan. 1914. State Master L.
81. Healey of Woodstock al r~e-elect-
ed, Gilbert A. Vincent of Kent was
elected overseer and j. A. Sherwood Of
business were the report of the taxa
ton committee recommending that
franchises should be returned as prop
erty and taxed; also ~favoring gradu-
ated Inheritance tax beginning at $1O.-
600; also that private property should
be returned for tax to the true value
in money. A long discussion was held
On the defeat of the public utilities bill
at the last session of the legislature,
and the passage of such a bill was
again demanded. The grange also IA
vored the present form of representa-
ton in the national g~range-that is to
say, not the proportional representa-
ton plan. The committee on educa-
ton urged the passage by congress Of
the so called Davis educational bill.
It also favored the juvenile grange.

and After.

In his ultimatum to Zelaya's repre-
sentative in Washington Secretary
Knox brandished a club. The world
will be likely to know soon, If not al
ready convinced, that a club will be
needed to bring the land over which
1elaya has reigned within the Zon of
Utilization. The force may be moral
Or may have to be physical and could
come from native statesmen or some
outside hand. Such fragrant misrule as
has been reported from Nicaragua Is
not calculated to prepare a nation to
do its own cleaning up.
The people of Nicaragua have never
been jealous for civic progress as 9th
er nations understand the term. Poll
tics is the daily occupation of the men,
young and old, but sordid greed for Of
fee and spoil is back Of all the activf-
ties. Nothing better could be expected
from the example Of a Zelaya. The
Cubans took due notice Of our big
stick without ever feeling the weight
of it. Perhaps the Nicaraguans will be
the better for a wholesome sense Of
fear.

Higher Education Wanted.
To The EDIToR;-

To The EDIToR;-
The author of the communication in
last weeks RECORD subscribed himself
"a Reader" That was a misnomer. If
he had, been a ~''reader", he would hest
tate before submitting to print such ride
ulous and absolutely selfish views of the
matter of which he wrote.
1t seems almost Incredible that, at this
advanced etsse of enlightenment in the
world, there yet remain a few-fortunate-
ly, a very few-misguided and narrow
minded individuals who refuse to ac-
knowledge that advanced civilization and
higher education 60 hand in hand. They
do not appreciate that neither can thrive
in the absence of the other.
The great Napoleon said:-"The en-
%lightenment of the future sons of France,
the welfare OF the nation, depends upon
the mental endowments of the parents
and, actuated by that axiom, he spared
no effort nor expense in establishing
schools for the education of the young,
both male and female. That which ap-
piled to France applies the world over.
The future welfare and improvement of
Penn's Grove depends upon the mental
calibre of the generation advancing to
maturity.
At this day and date, an education
reaching higher than the old time "three
Rs is an absolute necessity. Without
1t the struggle with the world is fought
under a serious handicap which nothing
can counterbalance. Consequently, to
throw obstacles in the way OF the proper
preparation of the children to battle with
existence, is to commit a crime against
the community at large as well as the
children themselves.
To the matured generation in Penn's
Grove who may not have benefited by a
higher education the just plea must be
made:-Do not, for selfish reasons, inter-
fere with the advancement and %enlighten-
ment of your children. Give them every
opportunity to realize their iaadaple
ambition to advance in knowledge
in your own borough where they can re-
main under the moral influence Of their
parents. The credit they will be eventu-
ally to the borough will repay us for the
slight struggle to meet the new expense;
and the borough itself will then have
opportunity to keep pace with the ad-
vancing trend of civilization.
Finally, with all due respect to him, 1t
must be said that Reader, who, judg-
ing by his letter, has never protitted by
the advantages of higher education him
self, should understand that in owing
the fear Of the small difference a high
school will make in his tax to Overhaul
ance the object of the universal good, he
is taking a stand which is ANTICIPATED and
extremely egotisticai. IL.

Hypnotism and VIII Power

"Tbe more will power a person has, "

exercise of will power o the subject's

A Graduate Sees the Need of a
High School

| To THE CITIZENS OF PENN's GROVE,
I have been greatly interested in the
reports, which have appeared in our
home paper concerning our High School.
Only a few years ago the talk of the
people and children was for an "Approv-
ed High School," After days, months
and a few years of hard work, the prin-
cipal with the aid of others, succeeded in
ranking our school among the first schools
of our State. Shall we show our apprecia-
ton by destroying this work, and thus
| take a backward movement?
Men of u town are saying, "We can
| show you men of business who attended
our school when it had but two rooms
| They have prospered. Can our children
not prosper with u large school build
ing and its many teachers today, with
out the High School,"
I admit u men have gone forward,
many of them and today we are proud of
| them.
But is not our country advancing?
Take the great inventions of the past few
years. Could we have had these if men's
minds were not developing?
Everyday of our life has a new de-
mand, every day a new question to be
answered or a problem solved.
In a town of our state no larger than
Penn's Grove the citizens have just voted
for a new $50, 200 High School and S., 1000
for the plot, while the grounds are to be
turned into a town park. Every school
day sees more than one hundred children,
all ages, coming to this town in coaches,
trolleys and trains.
You ask, care there no country
schools? "Yes, many"
"Why do they come?' Simply because
the people of the community see and
know the need of well educated boys and
girls. They realize that their sons and
daughters are to be our lawmakers OF to-
morrow. They know that a grammar
school education can fit for a position
behind the counter, In the mill, etc;
while the High School places teachers in
our schools, if they cannot attend a train
ing school; puts boys and girls in the
offices of business men as typewriters,
stenographers, etc. Best Of all it can and
does place them in a position to under
stand our best literature and sciences to
a certain extent. 1t surely affords an
opportunity to develop what is best i'll
the child, for it is usually during this
age IA to 1S) that a child forms his
plans and habits for the future, both
morally and industrially.
Cannot the people OF Penn's Grove
learn the value of the High School?
Give us the High School. Show the boy
it's values, then he will no longer loaf on
the street corner with a nasty cigarette
in his mouth. Give our children the
school with its gymnasium and the
reading room and in a few years they
will thank you men, pay your taxes.
Every time you buy cigars, tobacco, etc.
put away the same amount for the High
School tax.
See the results for yourself.
