Coach Moore opens his article BY
telling Of the bitter struggles" en-.
countered in introducing a new sub,
ject into the school curriculum. Al.
though admitting that it can be best
taught in the home, the writer is of the
opinion that such a subject should be
introduced in the public schools and
mentions several ways by which such
subject could be taught. His chief
argument for its introduction is that
the home does not furnish the child
with adequate knowledge of this ma,
ture."
The writer ends by giving a com.
plete photography on sex hygiene and
a summary Of the more important rea-
sons that It should take place In the

Rate Hearing Postponed.

It is understood that there will be
an order made very soon by the cor
poration commission Indefinitely post
poning the hearing that was set for
August 80, in the matter of the petit
ton Of the railroad companies in this
state to have the commission allow
the application of What is known as
the Georgia freight rate tariffs applied
in North Carolina, with a view to hav-
ing this schedule of rates become a
uniform tariff for the states compos-
ing the southeastern freight zone.
There have heretofore been two
changes ordered as to the date for the
hearing and it is likely that the Elm
definite postponement' will really
amount to the ultimate termination of
the whole proceeding, due to the dis
inclination of both the state and the
interstate commissions to allow any
radical changes in the basis of freight
rates during the period of the war.

Wheat Growing in Southern States.

Special from Washington.-To as
sist in carrying out the program for a
billion bushel wheat crop in the Uni
ted States next season, the United
States Department of Agriculture has
just issued the first OF a series of prac-
teal emergency bulletins %embodying
constructive suggestions for wheat
growing in the various sections of the
country. The bulletin, Wheat Grow
ing in the Southeastern States" is de-
voted to a discussion of wheat produc-
ton in Tennessee, North Carolina,
Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and
South Carolina.
In the program recently adopted by
the department it is suggested that
these states can easily increase their
wheat acreages in proportions rang
ing from - to 455 per cent. North
Carolina, in which in 1916 wheat was
seeded on 1858, 900 acres, should find
II possible without serious modifca.

able. With wheat at So per bushel for

the financial end of the situation.
But even more important than all
that-with ammonia selling at S. a

fertilizer worth $40 to $45 a ton, cover
crops this winter can assist materially
IN reducing the amount of heterogeneous
material that should be used. The
farmer can meet these high prices
next spring by having a crop Of nitro
gen to plow under in the form of green
manures rather than in the form of
high priced chemicals. The supply Of
these latter is also liable to be short
during the coming year, making them
still harder to obtain by the average
farmer.

Preventing Lightning Fires.


"The many lightning fires should

of providing aaginst this danger To-
Gated largely in rural sections" says
Insurance Commissioner James R.
Young. "Statistics show a wonderful
amount of safety from lightning rods.
OF course two things are absolutely
necessary: First, an efficient rod;
second, proper installation.
Under the law now, no one can
sell or erect a brand Of lightning rod
in this state unless he is licensed by
the Insurance Commissioner. He must
show his reliability and competency
to do such work. A licensed dealer
or agent can only erect such rods as
are passed by the Insurance Depart
ment as efficient.
Our people, especially in the rural
districts, will do we'll to protect their
property against destruction by light
ming. Use only approved rods erected
by licensed men. All officers and cit1-
zens are asked to report to the 1nsur-
ance Department any unlicensed deal
er or any Irregularities or wrong
practices by licensed dealers"
