Figures given elsewhere in this edi-

New York Life Insurance Company,
here by Samuel r. Bent

state last year than it took out in the

this strongest OF all life insurance
companies returned an excess OF more
than a third of. a million dollars to
this state last year. The article con-

other words, raising a living at home
instead of buying it from outside mar
kets. IN fact the South is undergoing
aAagricultural ~eVulsion. 1t took insect
enemies and crop failures to make the
people of the North realize the errors
of a one-crop system; it has taken the
boil weeyil and war of nations to i'm
press this fact upon the people of the
SOuth-that . one-crop system will i'm
poverish any country and will impov-
erish as we'll the people who are liy-
ing on its farms.
1t IS only through diversifcation of
crops and the using Of our energies
every day in the year that we can
make 4 great, rich country and a
strong, prosperous people. It is hard
to change old established methods, but
the people Of the South are changing
rapidly from the one-crop system to
that of diversified farming-the grow
ing of legume crops to enrich the soil
and give it life and humus; the grow
ing of live stock, grains. and other
crops, and cotton as well. The produc-
ton of cotton in the South will be in
creased under a system of diversified
farming.
The Great Forward Movement.
This great forward movement in ag-
ricultural development is forcibly en-
phasized by activities of all interests
III the South. Many states have effect
ed permanent organizations to conduct
educational campaigns for the i'm
pTovement of agriculture and com
merce. Oklahoma, Arkansas Ala
bama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tex
as have been unusually active Mis-
sissippi realized the great need Of real
constructive work along agricultural
lines more than a year ago, and
Grown in Mississippi campaign, Gov
erlng the whole state, was the result
A Grown in Mississippi" week was
set aside in 5000 schools of the state,
and for one week during last Novem-
Der, 100000 school children studied
grown in Mississippi products. Louisi-
ana was covered with a "Billion
Bushel' Corn Train: with thirty agri-
cultural lecturers, Oklahoma covered
seventeen counties in the eastern por-
ton of the state, reaching $4,000 farm
ers and business men; Alabama is
now conducting a statewide crop di-
campaign which will con-
tinue for thirty-hve days, reaching a
hundred thousand people. All of
these activities have been great CO.

Holden, OF the Agricultural Extension

campaigns have revealed an impress

The people OF the South are awaken

these natural advantages.
South Developing Rapidly
Farmers, bankers. and merchants
are actively engaged in organizing
plans to meet the problems which are
confronting them. The cattle tick. the
enemy OF diversified farming, is being
successfully controlled by effective
campaign3 conducted over the entire
South b. the United States Depart
ment Of Animal Industry in co-opera-
ton with the people. The boil weevil
is giving way to the introduction of
practical systems of croE rotation.

MASON SAYS LABOR
STOPS cONSCR|P TlON
British Workingmen Feel En-

BY J. w. T. MASON.

NEW YORK. Sept. H.-1nabiiity OF
the British working men to see the val
ue Of Increasing the British army be-
yond its present strength Is playing
the dominant part in the anti-conscrip-
tion which is now causing threats OF
revolution to be uttered in parliament.
The British lnboring class IL ready to
fight against any kind of compulsion.
military or civil. but there can be no
doubt conscription would be accepted II
the belief were really held that the
British empire Is endangered because OF
the war.
There IL now no danger at all to Great
Britain as British labor IL beginning to
Wow the conflict. There certainly -
danger to Russia, but Il Is difficult to
conceive the working classes of the
United Kingdom fastening conscription
on themselves to relieve the Gear OF his
embarr raasments. II il particularly un-
timely to suggest that British liberalism
adopt such a burden at the very mo-
liberalism in Russia.
The conscriptionists in Great Britain
are for the most part imperfalists who
want compulsory service In order 10
widen the bounds of the British empire
to the uttermost limits before the war
ends. The working men. however. are
no longer interested i" nprrsal expan-
sion when the cost must be paid by
themselves. rhev arc giving oil Of their
attention to tie expansion of human
rights at home.
Premier Asquith announced this week
In the house Of commons that nearly
3. mn. 00O men are now serving in the
army and navy. Probably the strength
Of the army Is 2.5OO.0o0. Since the Brit
ish empire has made thus military con-
tribution TO the common cause of the
allies. besides keeping the seas free and
paying far more than Britain's proper
tionate cost OF the conflict. conscrip-
ton cannot be demanded OF the United
Kingdom ny the quadruple entente.
This Is the way the British working
men look at the matter. They have
Just been told Great Britain is paying
$2l .OO0OsN a day for the war. which IL
probably as much as the payments OF
France and Russia together. They
know the British fleet alone has pre-
vented the Germans from winning the
war. n. in addition to this. compul-
sorry service Is demanded, British labor
will try to throw the United Kingdom
into turmoil. The recent strikes In the
United Kingdom have shown that the
working men will not hesitate to carry
out their resolves. They have won their
economic demands. and their military
prejudices will probably be accepted. as

Serbia COnfide That
Attempted Invasion
Would Meet Failure

PARIS. Sept. lS.-"Servia has done
her duty fully as an ally" said Mr..
Pachtch. the Serbian premier. as quoted
by the correspondent at Nish Of the
Petit Parisien.
FIRST. she has soundly beaten the
Austrians In the field. Second. she has
made the concessions asked Of her by
her great allies In order to bring Bull
garia into the Balkan entente. Whether
Bulgaria will come into the entente is
another question.
Thine Balkan States are deeply con-
cerned over the reported concentration
OF the enemy north Of Siberia for the
purpose OF going to the assistance Of
the Turks. As a matter Of fact. no army
Of the enemy has assembled on the
Danube. We have continuous and de-
tailed reports from French aviators on
this point -
Moreover" the premier added In a
tone Of deep conviction. the Serbian
army has been reorganized and Is we'll
supplied with munitions. It would rem
der most difficult for the enemy n
crossing Of the mountainous country.
He would require at least $4,000 men to
make the attempt. Where would the
Germans find them now?''
A further large number Of troops Is
reported by the Balkan agency to
have been called to the Greek colors.
The Athens correspondent Of this
agency says a royal decree has been
issued calling out reservists OF the
classes Of 1885. 1857. and 1888 on Oc-

CarranziStas DiSclaim
All Responsibility for
Battle With Americans

BROWNSVILLE. Sept. 1s.-Carranza
officials today disclaimed all RESPONSE
bilty for the two battles near here be-
tween Mexicans and American soldiers
yesterday.
The first fight. which occurred a
short distance from Brownsville, re-
suited in the wounding OF one s1exican.
During its progress, crowd Of Mexi-
cans appeared at General Nafarette's
headquarters In Matamoras and asked
guns with which to fight the Ameri-
cans. They were refused.
The scene of the second fight was the
Donna pumping plant. 1t started late in
the afternoon and continued for several
minutes. Two Carranzista officers finally
river and ordered the Mexicans to cease
firing. 1t Is reported that seventeen
Mexicans were slightly wounded in this
engagement although this had not been
confirmed.
Both American and Carranzista con-
suls have entered protests Of the action
of the others countrymen.
