study. The Negro people of all, need
to be taught how to save their earn
ings and go into business, but no man
or woman ought to be persuaded to
invest single dollar in something
they do not understand. Business is
a risk at the best. 1t is in the final
analysis chance game, but so many
people cannot understand it that way
and those who do not know when
they put their money in corporation
or company that they may not real
ize cent on it for several years and
maybe never ought to be permitted
to invest in them.
The Age strikes the keynote when
it points out that high financering is
the cause of most of the big failures
we are experiencing. The brakes
must be put on. Too many failures
are being reported. The guilty par
ties must be apprehended and brand
ed for all time

Pratina as Usual.

Our esteemed contemporary, The
Advocate of Charleston, Wa, in last
weeks issue engaged in loquacious
discussion of the proposed appoint
ment of our prominent citizen, the
Hon. ]. c. Napier, as Register of the
United States Treasury. The Advo-
cate says:
If President Taft would not unwit-
tingly disarrange the announced
dutch lunch to speed Napier from
Nashville and the projected banquet
to welcome him to Washington, he
must get move on himself.
1t is now within two days of the
time settled upon by the Negro press
for Vernon's retirement, and his sue
cessor has not even been nominated
Goshallhemlock! The suspense must
be something awful at Nashville
Banquets are common occurrences at
the Nations Capital, but not so at
Nashville.
When by chance or for any reason
one can be pulled off in the Tennes-
see city the opportunity is seized
with the avidity a hen pounces upon
a grasshopper. And don't fool your
self with the belief that any dick
ty'' class of men is allowed to AFRO
gate unto themselves all the honor
by boosting the price. Not by long
sight If the figure per plate is re-
garded prohibitory by the profanum
vulgus, why the profanum vulgus
calls a mass meeting and sets its own
figure.
That's what they did when it was
reported that Napier was to sign his
name on Uncle Sans money, but Mr..
Taft has not yet come across for
reasons which are not known to the
public. In the mean time Nashville
is getting FESTIVE and may get off
those farewell speeches before Mr..
Napier is ready to hear them.
Our good friend is to be condoned
rather than censured for this prating,
for be it remembered that the present
administratio nhas not even made
West Virginia a promise so far as the
Negro is concerned.

POULTRY YARD.

February is the bantam month
short but very prominent.
Those who failed to attend a poul-
try show this season certainly missed
a great treat.
If the hens do not lay by February
there must be something wrong in
the management
Every farmer should grow better
poultry. 1t is better to have good
quality than large quantity.
This month, in shipping eggs for
Matching, each egg should be wrapped
in newspaper and placed in a basket
that is doubly lined with newspaper
and packed with excelsior.
Peter Tumbledown believes in fresh
air; that's the reason, he says, he
allows his fowls to roost outdoors all
winter. Peter himself, however, pre-
fers toasting his shins at the corner
store.
F. White, one of Our Folks, has
turned the merits of the hen into
rhyme. Read what he says:
The hen has has many useful things,
Including feathers, neck and wings,
And white meat, dark meat, wish
bone, legs,
And stuffing, side-bone, gizzard, eggs,
She does the very best she's able,
To make us satisfied at table.

On the Farm.
LAW For THE FARM.
Widows Right to Dover Against
Heirs and creditors-Breaking a
Will-Failure to Read Con
tracts. Etc

Widows Right to Dover Against
Heirs and Creditors: Can a widow be
deprived of her dover right in her
husbands property by the heirs CIV
ing a mortage on it, or by the credi-
tors of her husband? Subscriber,
Pennsylvania.
The widows right to dover in the
land of her deceased husband is SUI
perior to the rights of his creditors
except as to those debts which are Sc
cured by mortgage signed by both
husband and wife. SO, also, her
rights can not be affected by any &C.
ton taken by the heirs; and regard
less of any mortgages or other con-
veyances given by them, she is en-
titled to have her portion set off to
her by metes and bounds.
Legal Holidays; Duty to Work On
Where a man is hired by the month
or year and he fails to work on legal
holidays, is he entitled to full pay?
l.. c., Michigan.
The effect of the establishment of
legal holiday by act of Congress or
of the state Legislature is, as a gen.
eral rule, merely to suspend bust
ness in the various departments of
the Federal or of the state govern
ments, as the case may be, and to
give the employees of such govern
ment a holiday. The act does not of
itself affect private business or pri-
vate employments, and in the alb
sence of special agreement as to
whether the employee is to work on
holidays, the parties are presumed to
contract for services in accordance
with the general custom of the COM
munity in that particular line of bus
mess or labor.

HARD ON IMPosToRs.

The action of the City Ministers
Conference Monday in taking Steps
to put the stamp of disapproval upon
loafing preachers who claim to be
ordained Baptist ministers and who
make it so hard for the divinely called
man of God in the discharge of his
religious duty, WAS not the limit Of
its operations, according to the infor-
of the Ministers Conference. 1t ap-
nation gained from Chairman Clark
pears that information reached the
City Ministers Meeting that Nash
vile was being gradually filed up
with worthless, INDECENT class of So
called preachers, who come here from
other cities and the surrounding
country and impose not only
on the colored people Of the COM
munity, but make themselves obnoX-
ious to the white people, some of
them soliciting funds for churches
that do not exist for charitable insti-
tutions that have not been organized
or chartered, and for widows and or
phans' homes thGt have no existence
whatever. Others, it is said, are
working themselves into parts of con-
gregations and causing dissatisfac-
ton among the members, endangerins
the unanimity that existed in the
membership. Nashville has been
imposed upon long enough and We
will have none of this foolishness any
longer. We purpose to drive them
out and keep them out by persuasion
if we can, by force il w mlsl,' de
clared DR.. Clark in the meeting Mon
day This remark pleased the entire
conference. The Rev. DR.. Haynes
will cooperate with him, as well as
the other leading members, in taking
steps that will not only purify the
ministerial atmosphere, but will keep
it so.
Other matters taken up Monday
were the purposed meeting ofs the
white and Negro ministers of the city
this month and the continuance of
the inter-racial meetings once each
quarter.

WATER IN THE BARN.
The Advantages of Such a Conven-
fence Are MANY.

fence Are many.
There is nothing on the farm that
pays a greater interest on the cost
than a water supply in the barn, es-
pecially a system that provides tenn
pered drink to the COWS and other
stock in their stalls. The methods
generally in use in former times and
still prevalent in many sections, might
have suficed in the days when win
ter dairy was almost unknown
when COWS were expected to go dry
in the late fall and subsist upon
roughage throughout the winter.
What farmer of adult years does
not have recollections of pumping
water, perhaps from deep well into
an ice-rimmed trough for fifteen or
twenty head Of stock, and of the
cattle horning each other out of the
way, as with trembling TANKS anil
arched backs they sought drink at
the icy fountain. Or, perhaps there
was an easier way, that of driving the
COWS down an icy or snow-covered
lane to the brook, it being oftentimes
necessary to break the ice before the
creatures could have access to the
water beneath. One such trip was
sufficient to make a marked decrease
in the milk supply, to say nothing of
the increased demand upon the feed
chest to replenish the wasted caloric.
1t requires some expense and often
some engineering skill to supply run
ming water in the stalls, and it calls
for ambition and energy to provide
hot water for tempering the cold
drafts, or a supply of tempered wa
ter; but the time and cost will be
much more than mado good at the
milk pail. Recently good house
wife complained in our hearing that
a weeks absence from home cost her
the early winter egg production of q
large flock, owing to the careless, ir-
regular feeding and more careless
watering that went on at a critical
time in her absence. The loss is
vastly greater when cows are COM
PEELED to stand In raw winds or
storms to drink ice-water in the mid

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1911.
The Metropolitan Realty Company.

The Metropolitan Realty Company.
The failure of the stockholders to
. reorganize the Metropolitan Mercan-
tile and Realty Company, of New
York and New Jersey will be unde.
sirable news to Negroes everywhere.
This company at one time showed
sigus of q great future, and the ques-
ton asked by the New York Age in
the issue of February 2, is quite sig
niticant. The Age says:
An official statement made by the
officers of the company as late as
July, 1910, admitted collections of
more than 100000 and claimed re-
sources of an equal amount, with pay
ment due on stock of $125,000, and
cash of $100.32. Where are these as
sets? Where is the real estate in
Guided in the assets? What became
OF the 100000 collected? Was that
amount eaten up in the Savannah
failure and the Eighth avenue fail
ure?
The officers of the Metropolitan
Company owe it to themselves, to
