LIKES THE EXPRESSION

Editor Star: In my youth / read
many and narrowing tales of the sea.
Especially attractive to me were the
narratives of our own navy and the
exploits of the old American ship
pers and their hard-fisted mates and
gallant crews of the American clipper
ships engaged in the China trade. The
exclamation Carrying on!" which
see occasionally in the dispatches,
used by our Americans boys or
some of our hard pressed allies,
recalls the origin of the expression,
which originated with the clipper
ship shippers, who would out-sail any
other seamen in the world and one of
whom would never take in canvas till
it meant the certain loss of some of
his sticks. or at least, smaller sails,
unless he Immediately did so. Sailors
in every port on the seven seas knew
these American sailors and that they
would "carry on" till the devil him.
self would be busy furling their sails.
E Pluribus Unanimous.

the law and the constitution when you
ask "Why didn't the legislature in
stead pass a bill giving each county
the right by the vote of it's people to
levy more taxes?" 1t didn't do this
because it couldn't. Ask some lawyer
if you don't think l know what I am
talking about.
To assert that the measure has in
the least been "gumshoed" is to total
ly misrepresent the facts in the case
There was a committee appointed
from the state educational associa-
tion in open session with probably
five hundred present to present the
matter to the legislature to ask them
to pass the resolution to submit to
the people this proposed amend
mend. Do you suppose they gum
shoed it through Or over or under the
Legislature? At the last session of
the association there was a campaign
committee appointed in open session
to conduct the campaign and to pro-
perly present it to the public and
they are doing the best they can with
their very limited means. What do
you suppose those horrible pictures
that you spoke of some time ago in
which the dilemma of the school board
was so faithfully portrayed were for?
Did that look like gumshoeing? The
policy has been the very opposite.
You are kind enough to say "We
think the teachers should be better
paid, but. an honest and economical
state government could pay them
more without saddling an amend
ment on the people," How? From
what source? / would again suggest
that you consult lawyer.
/ am not called upon to defend the
state government but l have been in
the closest official touch with it for
nearly ten years and have not seen
the least sign of, dishonesty. The
state educational department is strug-
Cling along with cramped quarters in
the capitol and very limited office
help as we have been doing here. We
have to make voluminous reports to
the state superintendent and also to
the comptroller and we find that if
there is anything not clear to them
we have to make it so. / do not say
that | always agree with them in
policy but / have no reason to sus-
jpect dishonesty.
Your argument in regard to the
salaries of teachers is ridiculous. 1t
is correct when you say that Taxes,
by the way, is something compare
lively few teacherse have to worry
about. The average man teacher sell
dom pays anything but his poll tax
The women don't pay that" Too true
and sad it is that it is so. To the
shame of the country is this the fact
You have spoken of employing
young students and people without
qualification for teaching. Ask a
father or mother If this is the kind OF
teacher they want for their children
Do your employ novice or green
horn to train dog, break horse, OF
even to look after well bred pigs?
By the way, what is this "educa,
tional autocracy" you talk about
One would think it was on a par with

SUGGESTIONS TO FARMERS

The writer attended the meeting of
county farm demonstration agents
last week at Gainesville and partici-
pated in the discussion of farming
and the growing of live stock along
with many other subjects. which were
very instructive, and came home with
some good suggestions to offer our
farmers of Marion county.
One of these was the boil weevil
and how to combat with it that VIC
may escape or lessen its damage to
our next years crop. The best and
surest way to our notion is to cut the
stalks this month and rake them in
piles and as soon as they are dry
enough to burn, set fire to them and
burn them up. By doing this you will
destroy large amount of both the
weevil and its eggs.
Another suggestion was the pre-
paration of your land for the spring
crops. This should be done by break
ing your land early this fall and turn
ing under all vegetable matter, such
as weeds and other crops that 60 to
make humus in your soil. This will
give sufficient time for decay and
add largely to your fertilizer for the
coming crop.
We also suggest q cover crop on
your land to prevent teaching thru
the winter months, and by this means
retain much of the fertility of the
soil. In case you have no cover crop
|
all weeds and other vegetation, leave
the ground rough; do not disk or
drag it. as it will pack and will not
work as good as to leave in a rough
condition until you are ready to re-
break it for your spring planting.
Respectfully, H. Blackburn,
County Farm Demonstration Agent.

The wool clip is being started to the
east through the regular buying chan

the United States government in the
course of it's progress from the produc-
er to the manufacturer. The raisers
are being allowed an advance payment
Of so cents per pound as the ship
ments are made, and the payment of
the balance between that land the
price to be eventually established will
come later. or as soon as the wool has
been graded and the prices which will
be allowed for the different grades

express the opinion that the average
price will finally be fixed between 81
and s. cents per pound.
