They insist upon moral culture if neces-
sary, even to the entire neglect of bodily
and Intellectual training. 1t Will, OF
course be admitted, without argument,
that virtuous consumptive or good
fool is less dangerous to society than a
learned thief. 1t Is only the narrow
minded fanatic, though. who is unable to
recognize the fact that active, capable
goodness will work to the amcioraton
of evil in the world without, while passive
incompetent goodness is only of value
to its immediate possessor.

many calls from farmers whose corn

some cases we would find little ants

In other cases the trouble was due 10
wire worms-but the chief mischief
was done by the root louise. What
can I do?' the farmer would ~invaria-

was to 'everlastingly pillow the corn
