Referendum 9--Vote No

Referendum No9 is called by its advocates budget
bill Insofar it it is worthy and would deserve the peo
pies approval il it did not contain other provisions that make
it dangerous.
written and introduced by the Taxpayers association
with the idea Of limiting county commissioners and other Off
their expenditures and thus to much the prevalent
extravaganza = u s.
But designing politicians in the legislature seized upon the
bill and used club against the cities and in the interests of
the banks
This done by inserting clauses which hamper intelligent
of city funds and would compel municipalities to borrow
bonds and warrants from outside paying good
interest for it, when the municipalities might have
other monies lying idle
The so-caed budget bill thus coupled up with the Rem
lex bill that later became law and which, because has cost
cities thousands of dollars in needless interest charges is
thorough disrepute.
It is unfortunate that the budget idea should have gotten
into such bad company and every intelligent citizen will hope
that the next legislature will the worthy parts of the

When | am ready to kill | have
everything ready and plenty Of
help. | kill and clean early in the
morning, and as soon as can get
around, generally afternoon, ! cut
up and salt the meat down in bar
rels and let it stand for abont three
weeks, but in few days after !
kill | draw off the bloody brine and
throw it away. Then at the end of
three weeks | take it up, rinse off
some of the salt and hang up to
smoke. | use green hickory wood
mostly. | smoke it until the meat
is light brown. ! get a large pan
or tub and empty the contents of a
bottle of prepared liquid smoke in
it and take a piece of cloth about
the size of dish rag. | take each
piece of meat and rub thoroughly
with the prepared smoke and pack
in barrels. Then you can go on
about your business and not worry
about the shippers getting in your
meat, for they will not bother it

in his own sphere, is a more nearly
finished prodnct What | mean is
this: That when student COM
pletes the Grammar School he is
prepared for something other than
the High School; that he may, if
compelled to leave school, 60 out
and find his place in the world
about him.
Second: The training offered in
the City School should not, by
any means be confined to the text
books. "Book-learning" is alright
in its place but it never has nor
never can take the place Of that
practical originality that lies dor
mant in the life Of every Grammar
School boy and girl. There is a
phase Of character that can never
be reached nor developed by con-
slant use of books. There are boys
and girls Of Lexington who are
longing. craving, yes anxiously
waiting for chance by which their
powers and capabilities may be
proven. And when they drop out
of school without completing, per-
haps the sixth grade. it is not a
sign that they do not care to learn,
for it is natural for the normal
child to want to learn, but it is a
sign that there is something wrong
with our school system. 1t is suf-
ficient proof that the school is not
adapted to the needs Of the masses
My plea is that there are forces
and factors outside the common
recitation Of Readin', Ritin', and
'Rithmetic-the three proverbial
R's-when brought into the schoo
will revolutionize the school life OIL
the town and change the motonous
hum drum" recitation to a schoo
closely related to life, a schoo
where pupils are DOORS and mo-
hearers only, a school whose mem
bers are asking questions rathel
than finding answers to question.

Let Some Good
Farmer Try This,

c. j. VIM, Of DeRidder, La,
writing in the Southern Rualist,
tells the following story Of two
acre corn crop:
The two acres ] planted in corn
was the poorest land in the coun-
try, so my neighbors say. turned
it with a small turning pillow and
followed with a four-inch bull-tongue
in the same furrow. After running
a log over it to break clods and
firm the ground, | laid off rows four
and a half feet apart and ran the
log over it again. | could not tell
where the rows were when got
through until the corn came up.
When the corn got knee high (Which
| thought it never would) put $50
pounds OF blood and bone to the
acre, cultivated level, and at laying
by, which was about the time it be-
gan to tassel, put 100 pounds Of
cottonseed meal to the acre. |
gathered seventy bushels Of as good
corn as | ever saw. My neighbor
across the line only made ninety
five bushels on six acres, and had
far better land. He used barn ma
nure on three acres and cottOnseed
meal on three but did not prepare
his land at all--not so much as to
cut his old corn stalks, and laid by
with turning pillow on a high ridge.
! find it always pays to put land in
good shape before planting.

Accuse Farmers of
Misrepresentation,

New York. Nov. 18.-An asser-
ton that Western farmers underes-
timated their crops in reports sub
mitted to the federal government
and thereby forced up the price Of
wheat. potatoes. onions and cab
bage Is the latest contribution to
the high cost Of food investigation
here. The charge is made by
Joseph Hartiean, commissioner Of
weights and measures, who has just
returned from a tour Of % states to
determine the reason for the high
cost of living and to complete ar
raneements for a farmers congress
here in February.
Mr.. Hartigan's investigation con-
yinced him, he said, that the gov
eminent estimate Of the wheat crop
in this country this year was based
on statistics furnished by farmers,
who knowingly concealed at least
Is per cent Of their wheat crop"
According to Hartigan, this surplus
has been held in reserve to be
dumped into a market, supposedly
short many millions Of bushels, at a
price otherwise unobtainable.
Il do not charge the farmers with
being out and out dishonest" de-
clared Mr.. Hartigan. but the least
that can be said of them Is that
their action was unpatriotic. They
are doing the same thing in many
parts Of the country in regard to
potatoes, onions and cabbage.
have not the slightest doubt if these
reserve supplies were released we
would hear considerably less about
crop shortages and the cost Of these
farm products would be reduced to
the retail purchaser by q per cent
at least from the prices now pre-
vailine"
Commissioner Hartigan said that
the cost Of food in New York is SO
per cent more than it ought to be
despite the fact that it is 20 per
cent lower than it is in most other
parts Of the country. The reason
for this. he explained, is that the
city is able to buy cheaper because
so large a supply Of food is sent
here.

WHAT LEXINGTON SCHOOLS SHOULD Be IN
THE FUTURE.
BY PROF. O. Z. HOLrlES.


In view OF the fact that a few Of
the patrons Of the Gramar School
have offered objection to the sub
ject Of free hand drawing introduc-
ed in all the grades. propose in
this and other articles to set out my
view Of what Lexington School
will be in the future and what 1t
should be.
First: (and | wish to be under
stood) the City school should not
have as a definite end and aim the
training Of boys and girls for the
School. And by way Of parenthe-
sis, let me say that the end and aim
Of the High School should not be
the training Of boys and girls for
University or College entrance.
But each in its sphere should so de-
velop and train the student that he
may be able at once to see some
vital relation between his school
life and the everyday, business life
about him.
There is great mass of boys and
girls, who year by year, drop out Of
the grades and 90 out of school UNI
prepared to face the perplexing
problems Of every day life. 1t
should be the object Of the City
School to throw some restrictions
around these and give them a deep
er incight into the relations Of life.
Is the Lexington City School most
interested in the few who are
promoted to the High School each
year, Is It the task Of the City
School teacher to contribute hel
small part in the preparation Of 9
child for High School? Are the
citizens Of Lexington paying sc
cents additional tax in order that {
few may pass on up to promotion
to High SCHOOL, | answer these
questions by saying emphatically
that ! believe that the City Scho6
Of Lexington belongs to every child
and that it is the duty Of those il
charge to see that such a course o
study is pursued that every child
