Horse radish should be started very
early in the spring. 1t consists of one

crown and a large NUMBER of smaller
roots.
These roots, small as lead pencil,

placed in the ground with the thick end

POULTRY NOTES

Cold rains in early spring will kill
the tender youngsters. If they are
not sheltered you may be sure you
will fail in the business.
The idea Of starving hens for any
purpose is all wrong. Like People.
they should have sufficient food to keep
them strong and thrifty at all times.
To kill the mites with water it must
be boiling hot and must reach every
crack and crevice. Carbolic acid helps
wonderfully.
A flock of chickens will keep small
orchard free from insects which drop
to the ground.
Raising. chicken eggs aud duck meat
is fine business.

show that her milk would carry poison

that of other COWS in the dairy. At the

Great Atlanta Speech,

Rev. DR.. s. N. vass Of Raleigh, N. c.,
took occasion to refer to the glory of
the Negro race in the early ages of the
world. and all who heard him went
away Convinced that what he said
was Of the highest authority. and they
agreed with him that the day would
come when historian like Myers
would correct the very unhistorical
statement In his work that Negroes
have always been hewers Of wood and
drawers OF water.
DIR. Vass cited such evidence from
the Bible. archaeology and philology as
to convince all that he Is not only
ripe scholar and able student Of the
Scriptures, hut that what he claims is
all very true. and the mammoth audi

wildly all through his very able and
inspiring address. A large part of the
audience was composed of white peo-
Pile. DIR. Booker I. Washington fol
lowed him aud said he had no doubt
that the race had a glorious history
in the remote past. but that it has still
a brighter outlook for the future.
DR.. Vass is doing an untold amount
of good for his people in lecturing all
over the country on the Bible and
showing the race that we were once
noble people of the earth. second
to none on the globe. and that II We
should learn the lesson God wishes US

content to be mere walters or Pullman
car porters or tip takers In some easy po-
permanent and dependable In the way OF
laying a foundation for the present or the
future. The whole southland is full OF
opportunities for skilled workmen at high
wages. In Alabama. for example. there
are colored men who are earning from 81
to S a day bricklayers.
In the birmingham district of Alabama
there are coiored men who are earning
from IS to so per day as skilled laborers
in the various iron and steel manufac-
turing enterprises OF that state What l
say of Alabama Is true OF other states.
Without the least fear Of sxagEeration
I would state that employment can be

800 Negro contractors. 100 more electrical
engineers. 5000 more bricklayers. 5000
