The Inferiority of the Negro.

"Our friends down South, being
sure that the negroes are inferior,
deny them advantages and provide
inferior schools for negro children in
order that they will continue to be
inferior and thus prove the correct
ness of the contention of the scien-
lists and sentimentalists that the
negro is inferior After all, there is
nothing quite so satisfying as the
feeling that you have got things
fixed so that you will always have

Farm Credits System Needed

St. Joseph, Mo.-Farm wealth of
the United States, estimated at 49,
900, 100000, should be the basis on

rests permanently, yet there is no
adequate law under which to finance
the farm. That was the condition
described here last week at the In

w. C. Brown, former president of the
New York Central Railroad
The establishment of farm credits
is one of the most important ques-
tons now before the nation,' Mr..
Blown said. The farmer is paying
twice the interest he should. Long
time loans at a low rate would en-
able the farmers to properly finance
their work and it is this financing
upon which depends to a large de.

United States is threatened with
serious invasion of its rights as
neutral by the warning nations of
Europe and in preserving it's COM
merce with those nations is face to
face with a crisis, in the opinion of
former President VIM. H. Taft. In
the solution of that crisis, should it
arise, no lingo spirit must be allowed
to prevail, Mr. Taft advised; neither
pride nor momentary passion should
influence judgment.
And when the President shall
act" Mr.. Taft declared, we must
stand by him to the end. In this
determination we must be sure that
all will join, no matter what their
previous views, no matter what
their European origin. All will for
get their differences in self-sacrific-
ing loyalty to our common flag and
our common country"

Mind Your Business.
(By Hiram Wallace.)

I believe that the farmers in all
parts of the country pay too much
attention to other peoples business
and not enough to their own. The
farmer must understand that his
farm is a manufacturing plant and
that he is a business man the same
as any other individual who is en-
gagged in turning out a finished or
partly finished product. Farming
therefore is business. 1t needs at
tention and a lot of it if the plant is
to be efficient and the product is to
be- marketed for what it is worth
But the farmer is not minding his
own business. He lets another man
make the prices-fix the rates he is
to receive for the output of his plant.
The fellows in the cities, the stock
yards men. the warehouse men, the
cold-stOrage men, the commission
men, the butter, milk, cheese and
egg men, these are the persons who
fix prices the farmer is to receive
and the prices the rel ailers are to
pay. And you may be sure that be-
tween the two extremes there is
comfortable profit for the man in
the middle although all he does is
to stand there between the two eX-
tremes of the transaction. But that
is his business and he is attending
to it. So he gets off at Prosperity
Station.
Suppose all the farmers in each
district were organized. Suppose
that they followed the plan of the
Florida or the California fruit grow
ers. Things would be different. But
it is hard to make the average farm
er understand this He will listen to
the arguments of reformers and take
a day off to vote for this or that
freak law to prohibit something that
does not affect him at all and that
therefore, is not his business But
he will spend no time to come into
town to attend a meeting that bears
directly on his misunderstanding
He will vote for a constitutional
amendment to prohibit the use Of
cigarettes, for instance. when the
chances are that neither he nor any
member of his family uses cigar
cites. So he is not minding his owr
; business. His business is to raise
, the best grain, vegetables, fruit
poultry or stock that he can; to SCI
that he is provided with cheal
and sure means of eetting these
products to market and to get thu
best possible prices at the marke
place. He cannot do these thing
: by acting independently. He ane
t his neighbors must get together, &C
= together and stick together. 1t ma,
be admitted that some farmers ar,
! awakening to the fact that they ar
: business men and are conductin,
I their plants as if they were bushes
