PHILIP SCHOOL NOTES

At last school is over with
and the teachers and out of town
pupils have commenced to seat
ter. Examinations were held Sat
urday to make up for New
Years Day.
We understand that Of those
taking the Sth grade final ex-
aminatiOns it is probable that
only two will fail. This speaks
we'll for the class, as there We're
between fifteen and twenty tax
ing the examinations. The 7th
grade was not so successful, as
more pupils failed in proportion
to the number in the class than
in the Sth grade. In the other
grades there were quite a few
failures, but this is not surpris-
ing, considering the difficulties
the pupils and teachers have
worked under the last half year.
About twenty arrived from
Midland Saturday to take part
in the play, "Galliger,' given by
the Midland high school that
night There We're twelve i'm the
east of the play. Some Of the
acting was very good and the
songs and other selections were
much enjoyed by the audience.
The party was i'm charge Of Prof.
Fox and Miss Duryea. They re-
turned to Midland Saturday
night, and while their trip was
not great financial success, we
understand they did not go as
deeply sin the hole" as the
p. II. S. did when they went to
Midland last year.

BEGIN TO CULTIVATE YOUR
CORN BEFORE IT Is UP.

The harrow or weeder is the
best friend the corn crop has at
this season. Don't forget that.
The little weeds which come up
before the corn appears are
from seeds lying near the sur
face. One visit from harrow
tooth gets there soon enough.
After weed gets start in
the hin or Inn the row, practically
the only way to get it out is to
pull up by the roots There isn't
time for this. Get the little weed
now and the battle is over as
far as it is concerned.
In general, weeds reduce the
corn crop in South Dakota more
than any other one thing. Weeds
use moisture and plant food
and sunlight which ought to be
available for the growing corn.
Don t forget that.
Harrow the corn before it is
up. Harrow it after it is up un-
til it is big enough to cultivate.
DO this now and you will have
bigger ears Of corn and more of
them when picking time comes.
Don't forget that. By Prof. J. G.
Hutton, Agronomy Dept, State
College.

FETER1TA, A
GRAIN SORGHUM

Owing to the rema rkable sue
cess attained by farmers i'm
Western Oklahoma and Kansas
with Feterita, and the wide ad-
vertising thereof a considerable
amount is being planted this
spring in South Dakota. This
crop is grain sorghum. closely
related to kafir. The stalk is
more slender and it is well sllp-
piled with leaves. It is certain
to prove a drOuth resistant for
age plant but it is not so GER
tain that it can be depended up
on to ripen seed i'm this latitude.
At the HighmOre farm of the
South Dakota Experiment Sta
tion. feterita yielded 1.2 tons of
fodder per acre in 1913 hut fail
ed to mature seed. The Mime
sofa Amber cane i'm the same
test yielded 81 tons of forage
per acre At Interior, the writer
is informed that feterita ripemed
seed uniformly during 1913. It is
desirable TO make the college a
clearing house for agricultural
information of local application.
Reports from those who are try
ing feterita in various parts of
the state will be appreciated,
and can be made very useful. It
is likely that it will ripen i'm
some parts Of the state but not
in all parts. This is also true of
kafir and milo. Address Agron-
omy Department, BroOkings. BY

NOT WORTH WHILE?

It would be difficult to esti-
mate the number of those Amer
leans who exclaim that the whole
of Mexico is not worth the life
of single American soldier, and
who therefore deprecate any
sort of intervention i'm the South
ern republic. From any material
or selfish standpoint they are en-
tirely right. The Mexicans are
not a great people. they are not
lOvable. they seem unworthy of
any atruistic efforts in their
behalf. But to deduce from this
that the United States has no
obligation to help them is to fly
in the face of the teachings of
history.
We cannot even imagine what
the world world be like today if
the civilized peoples of ancient
and modern times had lived
alOOf from the belated races of
the earth. and taken no hand
in raising them from barharism
TO civilization. The Romans might
ere Julius Caesar set out with
his legions for the North and
West Of Europe, have lamented
the prospect Of his going, on
the theory that all the TeutOnic
barharians there on the outskirts
of civilization were not worth
the life of single noble Roman.
The English might have said.
and probably some of them did
say, prior to the invasion Of
India in the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries, that the
whole of India was not worth
the life Of a single Englishman.
Americans might have said. ere
Admiral Perry embarked on his
momentous mission that opened
up Japan to the World, that all
of those lowly Japs were not
worth a single Americans life.
They might have said, prior to
the Spanish American war, that
we ought not to give the life of
one American to rescue the down.
trodden Cubans from the Span
ish oppressor's tyranny.
If the more advanced peoples
had argued thus, in the past,
civilization must have languish-
ed and the destiny Of the race
must have been postponed inde-
finitely. AS for Mexico, the Unit
ed States owes a duty to its
weaker, benighted neighbor
which it can avoid only by deny
ing it's heritage. In the words of
President Wilson, IF war does
come it is not to be a war of
aggression, but war Of service
to humanity. st. Paul Dispatci
