Hampton institute is an undenom-
national school for the training OF
teachers and leaders in agriculture.
the trades and community work.
DR.. George p. Phenix, vice-princi-
pal OF Hampton institute, has said:
Moral qualities, which In the aggre-
gate make strong character as well
as economic efficiency, are developed
through the combination Of industrial
work by day and academic work by
night, as they could not be by either
alone, and longer hours are made pos
sible in the trade, agricultural and do
mestic science departments.
Every student in the trade school
has one hour of study early in the
morning, eight hours of work in the
trade school, and two hours of aca-
demic work In the evening period.
This makes IL hours a day, outside
of which he must get time for meals,
the care of his room, religious serv-
ices and recreation. Yet the students
gain in health and skill, in scholarship
and In character"
To ambitious negro and Indian stu
dents, the following courses are Of

preparing to become teachers; an ag-
ricultural course of four years; and
a trade course of four years in any
one of thirteen trades, including build

trades as tailoring and printing.
In the agricultural courses the
Hampton school has the opportunity
of learning the best modern practise

Mere bigness has never been a goal
at Hampton. Every department has
grown in natural response to the press
ing needs of the races receiving train
ing. Today between 1000 and 1900
students, including some 40 Indians,
are enrolled.

A superintendent's report for the

the following suggestive paragraph:

favorable conditions in the past, and
with present environment largely in

womanhood. There is much due to
private and society effort to supply

Farming offers an inducement to
Missouri negroes unsurpassed by any
other calling and solves the problem
of their future by giving them oppor-
tunities and advantages which no 9TH
er vocation holds out, declares Com
missioner John T. Fitzpatrick In bu-
reau of labor statistics bulletin.
The negro population of Missouri
is 157,452 men, women and children,
with 43,96O living in st. Louis, 23,566
in Kansas City, 4,249 in st. Joseph.
1895 In Springfield. sol in Joplin.
1871 in Sedalia, 1,s46 in Hannibal and
the others scattered over the state,
including the few that now own farms
and others engaged in husbaadry.
out of the 2S0,000 farms In Missouri
approximately 1888 are owned by ne.
groes. They range In size from
to 260 acres and are worth, land.
buildings, live stock, and everything
else on them, s27.76S,750, using the
average value of Missouri farm ST.
4O5 as the basis for computation.
The farm of the average Missouri
negro farmer, just like that of his
white brother. the bulletin says, Is
well kept and we'll stocked, and is
very productive, growing wheat, corn.
oats. grasses, watermelons, strawber-
ries, peaches, apples and all other
food necessities Negroes raise poul-
try for the market, sell eggs. milk and
butter, have beehives and plenty Of
honey, produce sugar cane which, in
fall. they boil out for sorghum mo-
lasses. Their daily menu is made of
the best things they produce, being
far superior to that of the average
city negro, who half the time is out
of work and has no money to buy
food.
The life of the negro farmers is
full of comforts and Joy. In winter
most of them are well housed. warm,
snug and well fed. Free fuel wood
| furnished by the timbered lands In
and around their farms does away
with coal bills Every Sunday there
| is chicken, sweet potatoes, honey,
| dumpllngs, apples, nuts and other
dainties, with strawberries or water
melon in summer and turkey or duck
and mince or pumpkin pie in winter.
Fresh eggs and hickory smoked sugar
cured ham is an ordinary breakfast.
Nearly every negro farmer of Mis-
souri, has a bank account, and his
profits allow him to take vacation in
St. Louis. Kansas City, or some other
metropolis once or twice a year He
owns three or four suits of clothes,
with shoes and hats to match.

Plans for an orphan asylum to &C.
. .commodate 400 negro children and to
be erected adjoining the estate OF Au-
gust Belmont at North Babylon, L. l..
are being discussed. Mr.. Belmont
also has a big place at Hampstead,
l.. l. The promoters OF the orphan
asylum are said to be negotiating for
the purchase OF the Edwards farm OF
100 acres owned by the receivers OF
the Dean Alvord company. The prin-
cipal feature Of this farm is an ex-
tensive nursery farm. There are sew
eral buildings on the tract and these,
1t is expected. will be remodeled for
the use OF the negro orphans.
