TRUCK CROP OPENING EARLY.

Two items in the news of Saturday
emphasize the fact that the truck
season is opening early and well in
Louisiana and Mississippi. The first
crate of tomatoes of the season was
sold in Centerville (Miss.) Wednes-
day by w. G. Hodges. They were fine
and large. Beans are being marketed
at good price, and the general outlook
of the truck around Centerville is very
encouraging. In Alexandria Na.) the
movement of potatoes is in full swing.
The average yield is excellent. Twen-
ty-five carloads of potatoes have been
shipped from Rapides parish in the
last two weeks at good prices In
some sections of Louisiana the crops
have suffered from the heavy rains of
the last ten days; but if there is not
further unusual downpour no consid-
cradle injury will be the result.-New

THE PREACHING OF PEACE.

On May IS, the American Society
will celebrate throughout the land the !!
of the first Hague Peace
Conference. Here in New Orleans |
the local branch of the society has !
persuaded the directors of the public |
schools to give an hour at the cele- |
bration of each anniversary to teach
ing the children something of the doc
trine of disarmament.
Universal peace does seem far away,
sometimes, yet vast forces are work
ing towards that end blindly and un-
consciously. The invisible f1laments
of commerce are binding the nations
insensibly closer, making selfinterest
a potent motive to peace, and travel
is bringing the mutual knowledge that
means ultimate liberation. Thousands
of men and women, among them many
of the best minds in the world today,
are bending their conscious effort to
the task The great army of social
lists, an international brotherhood, is
working for disarmament, and is or
ganizing an army of millions of zeal
GUS men, whose fundamental creed is
peace and the maintenance of the uni
versal right to live and let live.
The better half of the world has
been cropping for peace since men be-
gan to live together in crude societies.
The first family was a peace union.
So was the first tribe. So was the
first nation. In the beginning, these
unions meant onl ypeace within the
unions meant only peace within the
bond; but human sympathy has grad
ually been stretching beyond the mar
row limits of home, city, country and
continent through the ages.
Millions of men believe that God
Himself became man and suffered the
life of common man to bring universal
peace into the world.
Every age has seen humanity ad
vance one step farther towards the
ultimate goal. Suffering long age
taught the world the horror and waste
of war, and time is teaching us thai
united human effort can make wal
less likely and even partially human
ize 1t when 1t occurs.
Since the first Hague Peace Con
gress over eighty arbitration treaties
have been made, and the foundations
of an International parliament have
been laid.
Next We viii see an internationa
government sustained, not only by e

Ditchine With Dynamite.

Clarksdale, Miss, May 9.-Consid-
cradle interest has been aroused here
by new experiment made in con-
structing bitches.
R. B. Lawler, a local planter, is eX-
cavating line of ditch with dynamite.
A hole is made in the ground with an
iron bar three feet deep, and into this
hole Is inserted one-half pound of dy-
Mantle.
These holes are drilled 1S inches
apart. When rs of these holes have
been drilled and charged the dyna-
mite is exploded with a cap and fuse.
The explosion makes a ditch about
five feet wide and five feet deep, and
the cost is estimated by Mr.. Lawler to
be about cents a lineal foot.
Mr.. Lawler has already cut about
500 feet of ditch, and he states that he
is well satisfied with the results.

THE MODERN EDUCATOR

The newspaper plays an important
part in modern education, as it should,
Progressive teachers recognize the
fact that familiarity with at least the
chief events of the day is essential to
training for intelligent life-work, and
that to learn the news it is necessary
to read the newspapers.
The Washington board of education
gives formal notice that normal
school and high school teachers are
expected to keep in touch with cur
rent events by perusing the newspa-
pers, and the assistant superintendent
of schools notes that this duty has
been neglected, saying: 81 am sorry
to say that our teachers do not seem
The Hattiesburg news., 1911-05-09

to have the faintest idea of what is
time. The intelligent teacher should
keep pupils in touch with events of
Importance. The work in the debat-
ing societies this year will be devoted
mainly to live issues to accomplish
this result"
1t is quite likely that Washington
teachers are somewhat behind their
contemporaries in other localities in
their respect. Teachers pretty nearly
everywhere else are giving more or
less attention to the newspapers as
the means of supplying information as
to "live issues. The Auxiliary.

ternational police, but by the determi-
nation of all enlightened humanity.
The process of evolution is infinitely
slow but sure with the sureness of all
forces that have eternity before and
behind them. The welding of human
interest to human interest that has
taken place in the family, then in the
tribe, then in the nation, will finally
pass on, as we see it passing in our
own day, from nation to nation, from
worlds end to worlds end. Mutual
knowledge, mutual forbearance, mu-
tual interest are doing their stupen-
dous work.
1t will be done even If we make no
conscious effort. 1t will be done soon
er and with less waste if we make the
effort with our full intelligence.
Even If it were a dream, dreams are
the draftplans from which man has
built all his best realities, and II
would be worth preaching simply be
cause it might make the world better
than it is; but universal peace is nc

almost say that it is ultimately inevi

this is the greater reason why its doc
trine should be preached today.-Nev

1t is estimated that no less than
250,000 electric fiatirons were sold in
the United States and Canada last
year. There are more than 100000
homes within central-station territory,
of which fewer than 100000 have
electric service; consequently the es-
timated sales last year approximate
one iron to every eight homes. Al
though the electric iron was on the
market almost fifteen years ago, its
general use dates back only few
years. Other electric appliances
have a similar history-a long neglect
followed by rapid introduction.

MEXICO HAS
NEW TROUBLE
De La Barra will Not
Serve With madsr0.

City of Mexico, June 23-According to
well authenticated rumors, which have
been in circulation Within the past
few days, President De la Barra will
not assist the Madero government
after his present term expires. At all
events it is known that he has def
nitely refused the place in the cabinet
offered by Francisco Madero during
the conference between the latter, De
la Barra and General Reyes some
weeks ago, when 1t was stated that the
foreign relations portfolio had beer of
fered to the president and the minister
of war to Reyes.
The explanation of President De la
Barra's action is said to be that he
is dissatisfied with several obligations
which Madero undertook with United
States interests before and during the
revolution. The president thinks it is
either impolitic or impossible to fulfill
these Obligations and refuses to have
anything TO do with the business.
In a public interview President De
la Barra also refused definitely to be
considered as q candidate for the
presidency.
