What a Library Must Be.

There is only one justification
for a public library supported at
the general expense: 1t must be an
educational institution, with a
purpose of affirmative good to the
community; and it must present,
not the latest whim or fashion. or
notion, but the first principles in
science, the standards in conduct
and feeling. and the approved IN
style and taste. If it fails in that,
it is only a partial expression
even of its own age-still less is
it a useful expression of the ages
that have gone BEFORE.
i do not mean to imply, says the
Youths Companion. that a library
must limit its choice to the books
that furnish definite instruction.
A library is, to be sure, an "edu-
cational" institution; but ''educa-
tional is a broad term, and when
it is applied to general public of
all ages. diverse occupations, and
varying degrees of training and in
telligence. it must include in its
meaning not merely increasing the
knowledge of that public, but im-
proving its taste, quickening its
understanding. enlarging its SYM
pathy, and cuItivating its imagina.
tion, To accomplish those purpos-
es, those books are necessary which
belong to the literature of power
and even of diversion. There is
however. 10 lack of such books in
standard literature. And although
the curiosity of the public may be
keen for the more recent of them,
it is fair to remember that a great
many of them are now available ir
newspapers and magazines. and
that the duty of a pubic institu.
ion to provide them may NOT be
compelling

It is very happy idea to pool

added storage ard insurance
charges, acquits the lenders of any
patriotic intent Between the
efforts of the spinners to keep the
price of cotton down and the
efforts of old Money Bags to keep
the rate of interest up, it looks
like the planter is IN for a squeeze.
The only real hope for the planter
is the planter. If he will reduce
his acreage next year to one-half
or less than it was this year, the
price of the staple next year will
make up for wha. he loses by the
squeeze this year. These great

COTTON FARMERS URGED TO GROW
THEIR OWN FOOD.

In circular sent out to farmers
and business men in the cotton
States, the department offers a
series of suggestions to remedy the
situation created by the falling off
in demand for cotton. instead OF
attempting to obtain through cot.
ton the cash required to buy
other necessities themselves. Cot
ton Is low and likely to remain so.
Food products are high and also
likely to remain so. A man. there
fore, who has all his acreage in
cotton finds himself compelled to
exchange low priced article for a
high.priced one. This is not
profitable.
One way within the reach of all
to cut down expenses is to pay
proper attention to a homegrown
garden. A piece of land. as near
the house as possible. should be
devoted to this; given extra care
and we'll supplied with manure.
Ia return the farmer will have an
abundance of good wholesome food
throughout large portion of the
year which will cost him little or
nothing in cash. Vegetables and
fruits should be canned for winter
use. In this connection it is point
ed out that summer is not the only
time that work can be advantage
eously put into garden. Farmers
are advised, therefore, to get in
touch at once, either with the
county agents or with the State
and Federal Departments of Agri-
culture if they wish any informa.
tion on this matter.
Ia addition to garden truck,
every farmer should grow his own
corn, hay, and forage crop and
Keep enough chickens and hogs to
supply his table with at least the
bulk of its meat. Few farmers, in
the cotton States at least, keep
enough chickens. The profits that
may or may not be made out of the
poultry business have little to do
with the fact that with some care
q sufficiently large flock of chickens
can be kept on the farm to supply
the faulty with eggs and much OF
it's meat. Hogs, too, can easily be
raised for home consumption. and
beef cattle as we'll.
Again, farmers can ecUnomize in
the use of fertilizers 1t is the
poorest possible economy to starve
