The Philosophy of Flowers.

! 1t is getting spring time and
folk naturally turn to thoughts
of grass and flowers and things
that make the. earth beautiful.
Without the flowers there could
be no fruition, and without tie
grass the world would be depop-
ulated by famine. What a won
derful thing then are grass and
flowers, for they bring us life
itself. In pretty border of
flower scenes The Progressive
Farmer has the following pret-
ty, but practical little story
about flowers and the part they
play in our world:
"The grounds about the home
are part of 1.-THE setting that
takes away from the pile of lum-
ber and stone it's look of barren
cheerlessness. A country home
without flowers and lawns is a
house only, and never has that
air of charm that stately trees,
green grass and flowers lend
even to the humblest cottage.
We do not feel that it is unfit
ting here to say a word about
the part beautiful surroundings
play in making the place where
we live something more than a
home in name only.
'Flowers and trees and grass
are Natures means of picturing
her beauties to us-delights that
are as much an essential part of
a well rounded life as are the
more material fruits of orchard
and field. The time should be
when no Southern, farm home
should be without spacious
well-sodded lawn, with a few
well planted trees and borders Of
shrubs and flowers. A few loads
of good manure and a half-day's
work in sodding the lawn will
pay any farmer good d'v''enS~
larger returns in the end ~o''
haps, than an equal expenditure
anywhere else on the farm
."At first these returns won"
be visible, and maybe neve~. n
dollars and cents; but as ~
years go by the sweet satig'
tion that comes from prct'v
grounds grows apace, and fo-v
finer influences exist for keen
ing warm the love of the land
in the hearts of eur country
boys and girls.

drunkard was Espagnac, French
man, who died at the age of 112.
1t was said of him that he was
under the influence of liquor for
ninety years. A Frenchman of
1913 years is mentioned who at
tributed his great age to taking
an occasional dose of gunpow-
der, and a woman of 124 attrib-
uted her long life to great guam
titles of coffee. A man of Ia
receives mention who lived on
fruit, chiefly melons, and con-
tinually chewed lemon peel.
The average man is not as
tough as some of, these ancients
and their habits would be very
unsafe guide for him who would
live a century. Many factors
contribute to long life, but per-
haps none is of greater impor-
tance than temperate indulgence
and cheerfulness of mind.-An-

The County to County Contest.

Now that we are fact to face
with another campaign year, the
time is ripe for the people who
are not interested in political ex-
element to get together and de
mand cessation of the political
methods of past years in this
state. The people shuold elect
men to office on issues, and not
on partisan feeling and political
excitement and hatred.
The position will be taken that
it would hurt this or any other
candidate to do away with the
present plan. We do not think
it would, but we have nothing
to do with candidates. Every
one has preferences in political
campaigns, but these preferen-
ces should not determine the
kind of campaign which is to be
waged. 1t may hurt Manning, or
Cooper or Blease to have the
statewide joint contests, or it
may hurt each one of them. We
do not see that it will, but we
are not legislating in the party
councils for any man, but for
the party, and for means of car
rying on a campaign for the en-
lightenment of the people on the
issues which will confront them.
We believe that every man in
the race should visit, if not all
counties, then all sections Of the
state, where the people may
have the. opportunity to see and
hear him, but when he has gone

Records of Longevity.

Hardly a month passes with
out notice in the newspaper dis
patches of the death of an old
man or woman in some part of
the United States who claimed
to have reached or even to have
passed considerably beyond the
Hentury mark. Remembering
the three-score-years and ten
spans of years of human exis-
perience, we are apt to read
skeptically especially when par
ticulary eXtravagant claimant
had a black skin and lived in the
south where no record of the
birth of slaves was kept in per-
haps the majority of instances.
Yet one of our old negroes mod
estly claiming to have survived
only 110 or lis summers with
their countless water melons) is
still comparative youth beside
some of the alleged centenarians
of England, France and other
parts of the world.
George Borrow in his "Bible
i'm Spain" speaks Of remark
able, old woman of a Spanish
province who appeared to be not
more than fifty but who was
said to be 130 years of age, and
Parkham, in his account of the
struggle between the Spaniards
and French for the possession of
Florida in the sixteenth centu-
ry, mentions an aged Indian who
was believed by his tribemen to
be no less than $50 years old.
Considerably more worthy Of
respectful consideration are the
old folk whose names and sup
posediy attested years are found
in the French record called the
Galerie des Centenaries An
Glen ct Modernes. Among these
are found the names of Thomas
Parr and Hnery Jenkins, Eng
lishmen, who are credited res
pectively with the ages of 152
and 169 years, and who might
have added a few more had both
of them not died by accident. 1t
is needless to add that the re-
cords for these two centenarians
ale not accepted by all investi-
gators. According 10 the au-
thority mentioned, Jeanne Sc
rimphau died at 1913, after hav-
ing lived in single blessedress
until she was l27 and then mar
ried. Another French lady, Ma
rie Priou, reached the great age
OF l5e. 1t appears further that
Surgeon Politman, of Lorraine,
and that Patric O'Neil, called
the Irish Bluebeard, died at 120
after burying no less than seven
wives. An extraordinary record
among those in the Galerie is
that of Norwegian peasant
who died at 160, leaving behind
him two sons, one aged 108 and
the other only 9.
Another astonishing case is
that of Robert Taylor who is
said to have died at 1874 in 1898.
when he was killed with Joy on
receiving a photograph of Queen
Victoria, autographed and sent
to him by herself. There is also
mention of an Irishman named
Brown who lived to be 120 years
old in spite of almost continual
drunkenness. Aother hoary old
