BIC SOUTHERN

With a Program Which viii BE Large

April Z, at Louisville, Ky.

In glancing over the big outlines Ct
the program for the Conference OF
Farmers and Business Men, it would
seem as though no problem which COZ .
fronts the men or women in the coun
try, has been ommitted Even the
bankers, who are interested in the
prosperity of the farmers, have been
developed into a conference which will
take up the question of Land Mortgage
Credit Associations. A very definite ef-
fort will be made when Mr.. George
Woodruff, one of the Leading bankers
O. Joliet, H., and Mr.. John Sprunt Hill
of Durham, n c., open this topic SO
that the merchants and farmers pres
ent may be able to discuss the ques-
ton in an informal way. Besides the
question as to the Land-Mortgag9
Credit Association, a second question
WILL probably be developed, as to
whether it would be necessary to have
the Nation or the State pass additionai
laws to make such an association pos
sible, or whether our laws today are
sufficient.

An Outline.

The program which was mentioned
IN the opening of this article, is quite
a large one, and contains the full out
line for this, the seventeenth annual
Conference. 1t would seem from a hur-
ried glance over its contents, tat there
would be something Of interest in the
sectional meetings for every farmer.
oairyman, horticulturist, stockman
trucker, .housekeeper educator. mer-
chant, minister and editor in the whole
Southland Added to these sectional
meetings, there will be the daily de-
II onstrations in the large Armory each
morning from $50 until 1890. 1t
should be a meeting place for leaders
from every part Of the South.

Club Work.

Under the section of Farm Manage
ment, of which DIR. Bradford Knapp of
Washington, D. c. is the head, the
Boys and Girls Club Work of the
South will be discussed at length. o.
course, the Club work includes TIE
Boys Corn and Pig Clubs and the Girls
Tomota-Canning and Poultry Clubs.
All of this club work in the South has
been developed largely through the
activity of the 1000 country demon
strators, who have done so much in the
past few years in creating a coopera
tive spirit and better farm practice. A
large number OF these men will come
together during this Conference in
their own section to talk over, what
Chey have seen and heard among tire
farmers of the South during the past
year. In fact, this sectional confer
ence will be largely clearing house
for ideas and ideals that have grown
out of an actual year in the field.

New Cause for Divorce.

Why is divorce? There's "A question
capable of puzzling most Of us, don't
you think? or course. some of MS can
answer IL in II single sentence or two.
More Of Ms require large volumes to
contain fun reply. And when we
get them written some one is sure TO
supply fresh cause for divorce. Take
the case OF that OF New York man
who is demanding the dissolution OF
the marriage tie because his wife put
soap in his soup. lie has added some
what to the literature OK divorce. And
he has revealed new form of cruelty.
Soap as an article Of diet is not to be
highly regarded. BY most persons 1t
Is considered not only offensive but
dangerous. And. what is more, the
average man probably feels that he
eats enough soap in the barber shop
to satisfy his needs. Any added by
his wife is likely TO be regarded AZ sn-
