4 TwO-Year Rotation for Cotton
Farmers,

If one-half of the land is to go into
cotton each year and the other half
into corn and peas or oats, and some
legume, thus limiting us to a two
year ~three-crop rotation, as the very
best we can hope for, what effect is
such a rotation likely to have on the
fertility OF the soil? OF course, some
will argue that I'VE must have at least
a three-year rotation and that the
farmer must be urged to adopt such
a rotation, but he simply will not do
it, and it is more practical and use
full to discuss something which he
may in time be induced to adopt.
Even a two-year rotation of the right
sort is much better than our present
system-or lack OF system-and it
has been amply demonstrated that
the farmer, if he makes changes at
all, does so. by slow and small de-
grees.
What, then, is the best two-year
rotation that will give one-half the
land for cotton each year? 1t will
be difficult to induce a large number
Of farmers to grow any soil-improve-
ment crop. Corn and other crops on
one-half and cotton on the other half.
with the crops OR the same land only
every second year is a crop rotation,
but 1t Is little better than these same
crops year after year on the same
land, or at least, 1t will not keep up
the fertility Of the land, much less
increase 1t.

FROM MUSIC.
Artist HonOred After Spending Six
teen Years in Asylum.

New York, April 10.-A tragedy of
ton of Ralph Albert Blakelock to
associate membership in the Nation
al Academy of Design. Among thir-
ty-one other candidates, Blakelock
the hundred academicians voting at
the annual meeting last night. Blake
lock has been confined in an insane
asylum for the last sixteen years.
The decision to elect the artist
was made after II of his paintings
had beer sold for $4,000 and others
had been hung in the Metropolitan
MNacnm. the C%orcoran Gallery and
the National Gallery in W~ashingLon.
Blakelock, a native of New York,
who studied with several artists who
took his fancy, became famous from
his Indian c%anvases. 1t was while at
work on his best of these, "The
Dance" which now is in the Metro
politan Museum, that his friends
found him in his studio playing the
piano violently, and then working on
the painting by turns, the latter be-
ing arranged on the piano in place of
a piece Of music. He explained he
used the rhythm of his music to
make the Indians dance in his paint
ing. AS a matter of fact, it was the
rhythmitic swing Of the dancers that
later made the painting famous.
Blakelock soon afterward drew a
knife on his wife and she was forced
to call the police. He was taken to
Mattaewan Insane Asylum. No eff
fort will be made to notify Blakelock
OF the honor conferred upon him. II
was said at the academy to-day.

More Small White Farmers the Hope
of the South.
Progressive Farmer

There is great need in the South
for us to give attention to the very
evils that overthrow Rome and are
poisoning the life Of Mexico-the in
crease Of t]enantry and absentee land
lordism, and the other forces that
make against the increase of indie
pendent small farmers among us. And
with us the problem is further
complicated by the negro problem.
We should like to see the negroes
own the land they ill, as we should
like to see all other classes, but we
want to sec them buy in colonies Of
their own. In fact, it is very inn
portant, in our opinion, for our peo-
pie to see that this policy prevails.
In communities where considerable
numbers Of white people are living
we cannot afford to have the negro
population become relatively so much
more numerous as to leave the white
population too small for an adequate
white society. The writer knows that
in his old home neighborhood, for
example, not a few white people have
moved away because the negro popu.
lation has become more proportion
ately too large and the white popu-
lation too small-too small to fur
nish enough white neighbors for the
women and children.
This is a tendency that calls for
very serious consideration, and is the
main reason why the writer believes
every Southern State should set
about bringing to us just as many
thrifty Northern and Western white
settlers as we can get. We need
them and need them badly-need
them to a the rural South to the
white race and provide the thickly
settled, intelligent, thrifty white
communities that we must have in
order to get the needed good schools
and roads and libraries and tele-
phones and social cSnters that the
rural South yet la.hs.
To make the rural South a great
democracy of thrifty, homecoming
small white farmers-this is our only
hope of becoming a permanently
great and forceful section. And the
success Of education, cooperation and
equal legislation in the South is
largely wrapped up with this very
matter OF getting a greater proper
ton of Independent small farmers,
each man sitting under his own vine
and fig tree.

T.. r.. Hero of Hymn.

Philadelphia, April 10.-Theodore
Roosevelt is now in the Methodist
Episcopal hymnal. The hymn is
called Theodore" and was written
in 1905 by Benjamin F. Copeland,
with music by Peter c. Lutkin
This fact was brought to light at a
meeting of the Methodist ministers
at Wesley Hall, Rev. Carl F. Price,
of New York, in his address co the
ministers, telling them of his dis
covery.
Mr.. Price wrote and asked Mr..
Lutkin why the hymn had been
famed ~"Theodore,' and the reply
stated it was named after Theodore
Roosevelt on account of the music
being so strenuous and the words so
patriotic.

Protect the Forests.

In every Southern State the for
ests, next to the soil itself, are the
States greatest natural resources.
And III not a single Southern State
are there any adequate laws for fer
est protection. Every yea the South
is losing literally millions of dollars
because of forest fires, reckless cut
ting, destruction Of young forest
growth, and deforestation Of land
that should be allowed to remain in
timber. The supreme folly of con-
tinuing such a state Of affairs must
be apparent to any thinking man,
but no action is taken to remedy it.
Nor will any be taken until the far
mers Of the South realize that this
loss falls upon them with particular
weight and until they demand that
their legislators have the business
sense to provide for State protection
and, if need be, State oversight of the
forests.
We are wasting one Of our richest
heritages with a recklessness and a
simple-mindedness almost unbelieva-
Bile Of grOwn-up men. Isn't it about
time for us to begin to think seri-
Ously about the matter?

Senator Smith Loses Heavily by Fire.

Florence, April 10.-United States
Senator e. ID. Smith passed through
h city this week on his way to
washington to his duties in
the Senate, where he will remain UNI
til the close of the present session of
Congress.
In speaking of his recent disas-
trous loss by fire the Senator said
that he had lost three Of his largest
and best barns, all of his fertilizers
that he had stored in them or this
years crops; his feed, several hun
dred bushels Of peas, ali Of his Sc
lected seed cotton, 1000 bushels of
corn, all OF his improved farming ma
ohinery, plows and tools, together
with other valuable stuff, which
amounted to $4,000 or more with
not a dollar OF insurance. He said
he had recently let a policy expire on
the properties with a view Of placing
1T in another agency where he had
other Insurance, and had neglected
attending to it for a few days.
Hal the wind been blowing from
the southwest, said the Senator, my
beautiful old country home and
everything in it would have beon
swept from the face of the cart.
The Senator thought that the fire
originated from a match that had
been dropped in the barn and stepped
on, AS it started just after feeding
lime in the evening.

HE WILL REDUCE HIS SALARY.
II Will Materially Affect
President Wilson.

Washington, April 11.-When
President Wilson signs the income
tax bill he will write off his net in
come a substantial portion of the
$4,000 he receives annually from
Uncle Sam. The law also will re-
duce the salaries of Vice President
Marshall, the cabinet members, men,
bers Of both houses OF Congress and
many other government officials. In
addition many Senators and Repre-
senators will pay heavy assessments
from their income.
Representative Harrison, of New
York, the wealthiest member Of the
Ways and Means Committee, and one
of the staunch supporters of the bill
in committee, will sacrifice several
thousand annually.
Aside from the relief of the rank
and file afforded by the income tax,
the tariff bill proper, it Is estimated,
will mean a saving of more than So
OOO,0OO,O0O annually to the con
sumers, saving 500 a year per fam
lily on manufactured goods alone.
Fresh meats are free in the Dem
ocr& tic. bill. Under the Payne law
they carry a duty of ~ cents a
pound, and bacon and ham 4 cents a
pound. A report from a commercial
agent of the department of commerce
and labor made last year, says:
Argentina has been looked upon
as a competitor of the United
States in the beef industry, and has
even been considered as a possible
source of cheaper meat for this
country. The present outlook there
lends no color to the supposition.
Shipments Of beef from the River
Palate to the United States may come
shortly, but they probably will be
directed by the same interests which
now supply the market here, not in
opposition to them"
The report explains that American
packers already have a foottcld in
Argentina.

England Looks for Increased Trade.

London, April 1.-THE wooden
and cotton trades in Great Britain
are looking forward to greatly in
creased business with the United
States as a result of the proposed
revision Of the tariff. Manufacturing
circles in Yorkshire, while anticipat-
ing that the United States hence
forth will be a keener competitor
for raw wool supplies, believe this
will be more than offset by the
greater quantities of manufactures
which will be sem to the States.
Sir Charles NIAGARA, president of
the Master Spinners' Association, is
of the opinion that the effect of the
tariff on conditions in the United
States, both from the producers and
consumers viewpoint, will be tre-
mendous.
"A reduction OF the tariffs" Sir
Charles said, Twill enable England to
do a much larger trade with Amer
lea. The bill wou'N reduce tre-
mendously the profits not only Of big
trusts, but Of manufacturers gene
rally, INC it would be bound to re-
duce considerably the cost Of living"
