HAS JOINED "THE ORDER. >

One of the bright young boys
of this town approached the
editor of this paper recently,
and asked to be permitted to Join
the Order of Alfalfa. He declar-
ed his intention of entering an
Agricultural college when he
completed High School, and be-
come scientific agriculturist.
Good for him! What better could
he do! What occupation more
healthful, pleasant or lucrative
can he enter? The world is
awaking to the fact that the
farmer is the most important
citizen on the roll. Every pro
fession is crowded. The country
has all the professional men it
needs and some to spare. The
need is for more men among the
producing and fewer among the
consuming, classes.
Modern research has converted
farming from a dradgery into
pleasant and enjoyable occupa-
tion-from a hand-to-mouth, I'm
remunerative calling to one of
profitable employment. Young
men, well prepared by a full |
course in a first class agricultur-
al school, are in demand at hand |
some salaries. Seventy-five
dollars a month, board and all [
furnished and a nice horse to |
ride, up to $10,000.00 a year, is |
about the schedule. Such men are
needed as managers on large
stock and grain farms, as demon
srtators and instructors in great
universities. Country life is the
only real life, after all.
All honor to this boy whose
mind is made up "to be a farm
ers boy" There ought to be
others to join him in his wise
cholce OF an occupation.

Liqnor Issue in The Ninth.

In the Ninth district, where
politics huns and whirs as i
did IN other districts twenty-five
or thirty years ago, there is 3
contest, now in progress, which
promises to attract attention is
IN every corner of the State. II
IS the contest abetween Frank
+. buchanan, of Marion, and l..
+. Summers, of Abingdon, for
the senatorship from the First
senatorial district embracing the
counties of Washington and
Scott and the city of Bristol.
Mr.. Buchanan is regarded as
one OF the most popular men in
the South West, and while the
fight before him has many great
difficulties, he has a bright
chance and his supporters pre-
DICT confidently that he will win.
Mr. Summers once was collect
or OF internal revenue for the
Western half of the State. A
snort time before the Republican
national convention met, Mr..
Summers gave up his position.
1t was announced through news
papers of the State that his
purpose in so doing was to give
ms entire time, talents, and at
tention to Taft's candidacy. It
was lntimated that after Taft
was elected, Summers was to
nave an office much better than
q one he had surrendered: but
Taft was overwhelmed and Sum
mers ever since has been minus
a public job. In entering the
field for the State senate he is
coming, once more into the
pollacal limelight, and being a
smooth and tactful proposition
and strong organizer, he NAV
be expected to give a good
account of himself. A. r. Lin
coin, who was State senator
from the First district in the
Legislature of 1910 and 1912 is a
Republican, a fact that indicates
clearly the nature of the fight
that MIR. Buchanan hss under
taken. Some features O. the
contest. however, offer the
Democrats much encouragement
Mr.; Buchanan is pledged by
his platform to support the e l.
aDllng act. Mr.. Summers is
10 local option and is
regarded as a pronounced OBJ
ponent OF the cause of State
vide prohibition. The rank and
ME of Republicans in the South |
West is said heartily to faver

A WATERED COUNCIL
WANTED.

Mayor Hartman remarked the
other day, that this present
Council shall be known as the
Light and Water Council, that
little attention would be given
to any other question until the
town was well and suitably sup
piled with water. This is well.
We suggest a small amendment,
viz: drop the light" part of the
program, and make it first and
last water council. This of
course means sewerage also.
The people can wait for better
sidewalks. The Electric Light
and Power Company will take
care of the lights, and we can
patch up the streets for a while.
But this water and sewerage
question is absolutely essential
to the health and we'll being of
every family and every citizen
of this town. Let the council
give its entire time and attention
to the water and sewerage ques-
ton until it is settled and fixed
once for all, and during this
time, if necessary, we will en-
dure mud in the streets and use
kerosene lamps and lanterns at
night. Give the town a sewer
age system, and let other matters
wait if necessary. Follow the
example of congress, do one
thing at time, and do that well.

Where The Bridge is Down.

No road is a good road unless
it will take you to your destina-
ton. A by-path that ends in the
under brush is disappointing.
And a road that is cut by a brok
en- bridge only leads you part
way, and means time lost. At a
country crossroads stood a rude
y painted board indicating
bridge down" on one of the
highways. Consequently no
traveller passed that way until
the sign was gone and the bridge
was repaired. But men are not
always as wise in the life-roads
that they follow. Every one
knows that any road of sin al
ways has bridges down, and the
way has been posted with warn
llngs, and gets no repair. Only
loss and disappointment lie in
that direction. 1t is we'll for man
that there is one who knows and
Is the Way. There are no broken
bridges to trouble us in that

dacy, and will use every effort
to have him elected to the SEN
ate. The enabling act was de-
feated in the senate the last
term by a majority of six, and
we are informed that two or
three of the senate, who were
opposed to the measure at the
last session of the legislature,
would vote for it at the next
term. which will make the vote
this year, practically tie, and
Lieutenant : Governor Ellyson,
who is the presiding officer Of
the senate. and who will cast
the deciding vote in case of a
tie, has announced that he will
vote for the measure, and it is,
therefore, plainly to be seen that
the liquor people of the State
will use every effort in their
power to elect to the senate a
man upon whom they can rely
to carry out their wishes, and
Mr.. Summers, if elected to the
senate will certainly vote to de-
feat the enabling act.
The question thus resolves
itself az to whether or not the
people of this district are going
to elect to the senate a man who
IS outspoken in his declarations
against liquor or man who saws
he is against the enabling act,
and will vote to give each com
munlty the right, if it so desires,
to keep within is confines saloons
and grog shops, where the young
men of other sections may go to
obtain whiskey or from which
it may be shipped to them.
This is only one of the issues
IN this campaign and it should
be carefully considered by every
voter, no matter what his politics
may be. 1t is now up to the
people of Smythe and Washington
counties, and the city of Bristol
to say whether they desire to be
represented in the senate by
Frank Buchanan or Lou Sum-
mers. Marion Democrat.

MUST FAVOR ENABLING ACT

Elsewhere in this paper will
be found strong declarations
from The World-News and
Marion Democrat, on the Buch-
anan-Summers contest for a seat
IN the Senate chamber of Viz
GINA and the Enabling Act.
Not only the Senatorial Dis
trict, in question but every
county in the Ninth is interest
ed in this, one of the leading
issues now before the Virginia
people, and we sincerely believe
that no man in this section. I'M
less he is unopposed, can be
elected to seat in the General
Assembly of Virginia who is
opposed to or who lodges the
question of the right of the
people to vote on the Enabling
Act. 1t is now pretty generally
understood how and why the bill
was defeated in the last legisla-
ture, and the people will not toll
crate another such outrage of
public sentiment and opinion.
We don't know how MIR
Looney, the Republican candi-
date from Tazewell and Buchan-
an stands on the question, hay
ing seen no statement from him
on the subject. He is said to be
fair minded and level headed,
and if so will not fail to vote for
the bill when it comes up again.
No fair minded, honest man can
do otherwise. There may be
difference of opinion among the
people as to statewide Prohibi-
ton, but there can be no ques-

ton as to the right of the people
to say whether they want it or
do not want it. Politics aside,
it is to be hoped that Mr.. Sum
mers, and any other candidate
anywhere, in this or any other
Commonwealth, who opposes
the will and wishes OF the major
ity, will be relegated to the rear,
as he deserves to be, and have
the steam roller flatten, him out,
as was done by the one he helped
steam up, and guide at the
Chicago Convention. He will
get tast, no doubt, of his own
medicine.

The First Farmers Institute.


We moderns are apt to attrib-
ute to our own day that "scien-
tific farming" from which we
hope such great things. We have
established farmers institutes,
we have inaugurated farm de-
montsration work, we have open
ed test farms, we have labored
to better agricultural methods.
1t may be a bit disappointing
to our pride, but it is at least
interesting to know that Vir-
ginian planned farmers insti-
utes more than 100 years ago
and outlined a program for the
establishment of agricultural
societies to consider the very
problems that interest us now.
That Virginian was Thomas
Jefferson. In a paper written in
1911, upon which we CHANGED
the other day, he proposed that
the fnarmrs of other counties
emulate those of Albermarle and
form associations for the dis
cussion of agricultural prolems.
The local society was to meet
four times a year and was to
prepare a digest of it's discuss
ions and findings for the benefit
of other farmers. All the local
societies should unite in a state
organization.
Jefferson wrote: Everyone
must have seen otherwise equal,
the one producing the double of
the other by the superior culture
and management of its possessor,
and every one must have under
his eye numerous examples of
persons setting out in life with
no other possession than skill in
agriculture, and speedily, by its
sole exercise, acquire wealth
and independence. TO promote,
therefore, the diffusion of this
skill, and thereby to procure,
with the same labor now employ
ed, greater means of subsistence
and of happiness to our fellow
citizens, is the ultimate object
of this association"
Some of the topics to be dis
cussed are still holding our at
tention. Among a long list these
may be noted in Jefferson's
plan: The better cultivation of
the staple crops, tho improve
ment of gardening, the better
care of domestic animals and
the destruction of crop pests,
the proper rotation of crops, the
improvement of farming nipple
ments, farm buildings and con-
veniences, Enclosures, roads,
fuel, timber, manures, plaster,
green dressings, fallows and
other means of ameloirating the
soil" and farm records.
Surely, modern farming is no
achievement of our own day
alone!-News Leader.

aHH
Will refuse to vote for candid
ate, no matter who he is or
what party he represents, if he
endorses the liquor traffic. Sum-
mers has sought to dodge the
liquor issue, but thus far his
lodging has amounted to moth
ing. His stand for the licensed
saloon and against the progress
OF temperance is known to all
men.
People of Scott, Washington
and Bristol know that the line
between Buchanan and Summers
in clearly drawn and they know
that the fate of the enabling act
in large degree depends upon
how they cast their votes. Every
ballot for Buchanan will mean a
ballot for the advancement of
temperance and every ballot for
Summers will mean comfort and
strength for saloons. Republi-
cans of the district who believe
in the warfare against whiskey
and who hope some day to see
their country free from the ruin
GUS work and influence of alco-
hol, must forget party differen-
ces; They must go to the polls
and give their votes to the can
dldate whose activities will be a
strong defense for the principles
IN which they believe. World
