An American report wiuid prob
ably deal with the purely mental
features of education but not so
with the German savants They
have dicovered, not that the men
now in the ranks were deficient in
reading, writing or mathematics,
but that the eXigencies of war had
revealed the fact that theuniversal
gymnasium training had not de-
veloped the heart and lungs to the
same degree that it had developed
the muscles.
And the report gravely recon-
mends that in the further educa-
tion of the German youth, this very
important matter be attended to in
a proper manner, so that in future
wars the soldiers may not be def
cient in the one thing in which il
has been found by thtis war that he
is weak.
This attitude shows that the Ger.
man educator, at least, has not lost
sight of theone great purpose OF
German kultur, which is to make eff
ficient fighting machines of the mer
OF the empire, and it shows that thu
country is being educated to expect
to look forward to and prepare TO
still other wars, after this one shall
have burned itself out.-Miam

Earlier this week the Metropolis
referred to the cattle industry as ex-
emplified on the Bright farm, few
miles interior from Miami in the
Everglades.
That such results have been OBJ
tanned after one years trial with
young cattle stock, just on the out
skirts of Miami, is one of the most
vitality important facts which could
be emphasized looking to the future
development plans of this section
1t will be remembered, in brief,
that Mr.. Bright stated he had never
seen cattle thrive so well as the lot
| which he brought to his farm year
AGO. The Para grass, he stated, has
| proven the only feed which they re-
quire, and although the farm has
produced an abundance of corn he
had not. at that time fed any of it
to the cattle. Not penny of ex-
pense, he declared. have these cat.
tie been to him in addition to the
original cost of buying them.
One of the best features of thi:
experiment has been that the cat
tie here have no insect troubles o.
ANY kind and no sickness which Il
common to the hot weather periot
in some of the states.
In other words, all the condition
are ideal for cattle raising, and thi

shrewd investor is so pleased with
the results obtained that he is adj
ding substantially to his herds and
importing stock regardless of age,
the country being as well adapted
for the older stock as that which is
brought in while young.
What this means to Miami cannot
he foretold, except that this pderic-
ton may be confidently made: in
very short time every citrus fruit
tree lost from attacks of canker
will be replaced in this section by
a head of stock, and that where now
the chief asset advertised is fruits
the world will realize that the most
promising conditions exist for stock
raising. There can be no doubt of
this. Experiences of others in ad-
dition to Mr.. Bright, are all favor
able to this development. 1t will
mean the use of thousands of acres
of land for grazing purposes, and in
all probability. the slaughter and
commercial packing of stock in or
near this city for shipment to the
markets of the world.
A new possibility is opening for
Investments in this Everglades Sec
ton, and the whole Southern PENN
sula will profit from it because the
cattle crop will not suffer from oc
casional frost and disease will moi

AS TO FUTURE WARS

Something of the German mind
may be learned from a report made
to the government few days ago
with relation to the education Of
the young.
The report showed that the inves-
tieators had been studying, to con-
siderable purpose, the weak points
in the present educational system as
developed by the war, which has
now lasted for one year.

Richer in 1915.

Among the Fifty Reasons Why
the United States is to Grow Richer
in 1915" the following are grouped
under the head of Agriculture" by
the writer, B. {. Forbes, financial
editor of the Hearst newspapers:
American farmers, very tardily,
are learning the incalculable value OF
crop rotation.
THE South has increased its win
ter wheat acreage 80 per cent, and
corn promises to be similarly ex.
tended.
"A proper system of credit for our
farmers is to be established, proba-
bly, before 1915 ends This is con-
sideration Of great Importance,
Heavy immigration from rural
Europe should provide our farmers
a more adequate supply of labor and
should also lead to the cultivation
of greater acreage throughout the
country.
"Our total farm products in 1914
are estimated by the government at
almost $1O,OOO,O00,0 900 in value, a
figure never before attained,
High prices for all food products
will enrich our farmers during 1913,
prosperity is enabling farmers to
buy more labor-saving machinery,
purchase better grades Of breeding
cattle and improve their homes,
thus making their daily life more
comfortable.
Remarkable advances in agrcul-
tural science, combined with the un-
matched efficiency Of our federal de-
partment of agriculture, have great
ly reduced the danger Of any general
failure of crops"

Real Morality.

"ProvinciaEsm is not morality"
says DR.. Frank Crane; many con.
scientious people feel that whatever
is different is immoral.
"To many an honest villager and
farmer the city is a sink Of iniquity.
The unconscious ground for this
conviction is simply that so many
things are done i'll cities to which
the rural dweller is not used.
IL lind very common expression
of opinion among those OF any ma
ton, section or race, that those OF
another are quite loose in morals.
The English think French are liber-
tines, and the French think English
are hypocrites. Methodists imagine
shocking things of Roman Catholics,
and the latter can cnrdle your blood
with accounts of the vileness of the
Methodists. A church member in
Kansas looks upon a German sip
ping beer to music IN a garden is on
the toboggan slide to moral wreck
age.
81 would define real morality as
that principal in a soul which re-
spects the sanctities of life, main
tains loyalty in love, seeks and en-
Joys useful daily work, subjects all
desires to judgment, subordinates
personal to altruistic motives, abb
hors dirt, is stern towards self and
lenient towards others, Wherever
you find a principle working these
works in a man, you have found
morality, whether the man be white,
yellow. Christian or Mohammedan,
consumer of grape juice or pump
