Two Acre Corn Club Boys

The boys who make 100 bushels or
more of corn on an acre of ground
this year at an expense not exceeding
20 cents bushel are to be made next
club. In 1914 the boys of the All Star
club will be expected to cultivate two
acres apiece, and they are to be given
special instruction in crop rotation,
seed selection, seed breeding and
other phases of scientific farming.
This at any rate is the plan of the
federal department of agriculture.
The object of the new movement is
to turn the boys into practical scien-
tific farmers. 1t wants to see the
work already done applied to larger
and still larger area.
Every county should have corn
club, for the boys of today will soon
become the farmers and voters of the
state. Their present training points
to great results 10 years later. The
boy who raises 100 bushels of corn
to. the acre is the boy the state will
trust as he grows up and assumes
the full work and responsibility of
man.
The duty of the hour is to organize
more corn clubs. There cannot be
too many of them. We would not
have too many if every boy in the
land had an acre to cultivate in ac-
cordance with the scientific methods
of the federal department of agricul-
fure

Formulation No Guide

We are to have new Senate no
doubt under the Seventeenth Amend
ment. 1t will be difficult for a rail-
road or other special interest to elect
q senator when everybody votes, but
still the new Senate will not be evenly
representative 1t will represent the
people of state rather than the state
itself but that will be as far As the
change will go. When 1876 people
In Nevada have two senators, and
9,113,279 in New York elect but two
also, representation of the people is
certainly very uneven. Two senators
from Nevada represent 20,044 votes
and two senators from New York
speak for 1857 1888 voters.
Still two houses are considered bet
ter than one in this country. Eng
land is getting over the notion that
she needs two houses in her parlia-
ment, but America is not ready TO
abolish the Senate, although she is
ready to reform it. SO long as two
houses exist no better way to select
the members of the Senate can be
devised than the one we now utilize.
Each state elects two senators. Here

The Alabama Land Congress


Many important meetings have been
held in this state in recent years, but
few organizations have aroused as
much general interest as the Alabama
Land congress, which was established
last November at a representative
gathering held in Mobile, and which
will hold its second meeting next No
vember either in Montgomery or Biz
mingham.
Many large farmers and business
men attended the Mobile meeting and
the papers read and the discussions
that took place were educative and
stimulating in high degree. But as
profitable as the formative convention
was the Forthcoming meeting prom
Uses to be of much wider scope and
of far greater value from several
points of view. 1t is believed that the
United States Secretary of Agricul-
ture, David f. Houston, will attend
the congress and deliver an address
and it is announced that several prom
inent men identified with the upbuild-
ing Of the south will take part in
the discussions.
Alabama is exceptionally rich in
agricultural resources but it is only
within the past two or three years
that this states splendid possibilities
along modern lines have been appre-
ciated. What this state needs par
ticularly is small farms. Several
large tracts have been divided and
subdivided in recent years, but our
farming population should increase by
many thousands. While the work of
the congress will be largely concerned
with agriculture the. question of rural
schools as we'll as rural credits for
the tilIer of the soil should receive
serious attention.
In the matter of attracting home
seekers Alabama will be greatly
handicapped so long as the state ranks
low in the table of literacy. This bad
condition can be easily overcome when
the legislature submits to the voters
an amendment to the constitution per-
hitting each school district to tax it.
self for school purposes. The Ala
bama State Land congress should not
only take strong stand on this ques-
ton but it should organize for an
active campaign. Such a campaign
would result in a good majority in
the next legislature committed to the
proposition of reducing illiteracy in
the way pointed out.

A MODERN FAIRY TALE

From Life.
The butcher, the baker and the candle
stick maker decided that life in the chill
dren's classics, although very quiet, did
not obtain the goods.
So the butcher gladly consented TO pay
u cents a pound for pigs, and he con-
sequently affected the high cost of living.
which gave him far more notoriety and
incidentally, an easy living.
Properly enthused by this example, the
baker became large stakeholder in a
national trust and proceeded to enlighten
the public concerning their large need OF
biscuits.
Not to be outdone by his associates, the
oardlestick maker sold out and acquired
few shares of Standard Oil stock.
Trus three quaint worthless passed from
the realm of literature, but died rich.

Maiden most perfect, lady of light.
With a noise of winds and many rivers,
With camor of waters. and with
might;
Bind on thy sandals, o thou most fleet,
over the splendor and speed Of thy feet;
For the faint east quickens, the wan west
shivers
Round the feet of the day and the feet
of the night.
Where shall be find her, how shall we
sing to her.
Fold our hands round her knees and
cling?
O that mans heart were as fre and could
spring to her,
Fire. or the strength of the streams that
spring.
For the stars and the winds are unto her
As raiment, as songs of the harp player;
For the risen stars and the fallen cling
to her.
And the southwest wind and the west
wind sing.
For winters rains and ruins are over,
And all the season of SHOWS and sins
The DAYS dividing lover and lover,
The light that loses, the night that
wins;
And time Remembered grief Is forgotten
And frosts are slain and flowers begotten.
And in green underwood ana cover
Blossom by blossom the spring begins.
