Them MoIasses,"

The note from "The Doctors Wife, ~
giving the term sap molasses" to ma
pie strip, reminds me OF a somewhat
similar designation used in the South
many years ago. A naturalist friend
OF ours told us that while studying in
Kentucky his host remarked to him at
breakfast, Wont you have some OF
these molasses? These are tree mo-
lasses." This use of the plural is also
to be found among the natives of New
England. l haven't heard it applied
to molasses, but my father remem bera

Culture,

Culture is not a useless thing for
ornament. Culture is service, growth.
Culture OF the field means the highest
development Of life. Without culture
Of this kind there can be no success
full agriculture. The lack of culture
means idleness and waste of the field
a. well as OF the human intellect
Plant food in the soil becomes avail
able, assimilable, only by culture. Bac-
terial life in the soil becomes most
active and productive under culture.
Culture, properly guided, is vision
realized. Nowhere is there a higher
or more useful culture than in the de-
velopment OF plant and animal life.
trained mind is q cultured mind. A
highly productive field Is a cultured

Compulsory Military Training
Really Is a Democratic System


If we had compulsory military service, whether it

for the country My doubt with respect to compulsory
military training is whether when compulsory, which is

shall find that its workings shall be hardest the wage

against that kind of preparation which might nure the

SLOWER SPEED
On the Coal and Coke Is Or
dered on Account Of the
Condition of Track.

Recent wrecks and derailments on
the Coal and Coke railroad have re-
suited in the issuance of orders by
the officials OF the company, requir-
ing that its employees exercise better
Judgment in the operation Of trains
over certain stretches Of track.
The elements of winter have tend
ed to weaken the foundation of the
track in places. and until these de-
fects are eliminated both passenger
and freight trains will be operated
at lower rate of speed than FORM
erly.
The passenger trains that have
been operated between Charleston
and Gassaway at an average speed
of twenty-eight miles an hour will
not make more than twenty miles an
hour in the immediate future, and
freight trains will be operated at a
speed ranging from ten to fifteen
miles an hour, 1t is said.
