the street, Whip behind! Whip be-
hind, Mister, whip behindr'
AS we went on about our business
we fell to Analysing this trait of
human nature which inspired the
lads in the street to seek to rout
their playmates who had secured the
comfortable place on the wagon and
were stealing a ride. Was it only
envy after all?
And then we thought how this
spirit of pulling the other fellow
down followed us through life. If
someone has an easy berth we cry,
"the monopolists are stealing a
ride"
After all, isn't it laziness and envy
that prompt the cry? Why do not
more of us ride? There seems to be
plenty of room in the great van of
the Government that Uncle Sam is
driving. Why not jump aboard, in
stead of pulling down the men who
catch the rides? If you believe in
our natural resources, our democratic
institutions and the integrity of the
people, climb aboard. What we need
in Paris and in the United States of
America is not to prevent a few
bright fellows from riding, but to
jump aboard ourselves and pull UP
the weak and the poor and the I'M
fortunate.
The great van of Opportunity is
coming down the road. Stop shout
ing, whip behind"

The driver stood UP and looked
over the top of the load, but could

side of the wagon and gazed. 1t was
an vain. Then he sat down, observ-
ing. no doubt, that the wagon stood
the extra load we'll, and that the
horses did not feel the added weight.

EDITORIAL MUSINGS.
What You Think of This?

Don't you get tired sometimes
listening to speakers telling you how
to do things and how not to do
things? 1 have in mind bunch who
are almost fanatical in their demands
that we change our style of letter
writing. They insist that we cut
out "beg to remain" your letter re-
&C; ed" under separate cover"
g. sh to advise" Yours very truly"
s+Daar Sir" and an "platitudes" and
usei phrases. Perhaps they are right
and we often receive a letter without
these superfiuous phrases that almost
convince us, because the writer seems
to have sat down. and written just
what he thought in a natural, frank
way. But about nine-tenths of the
letters written by those who nave
tried to follow the advice of the
aforesaid writers and speakers are
too apparent attempts to be different
or clever-you seem to feel that the
writer is thinking more of how to say
something than he is of seriously say
ing something-and the punch"
which the author put in the letter
had leaked out before the mail was
delivered.
Dear Sir" and Yours truly"
are all right. They are good, polite
terms just like "How'dy do" and
Goodbye" and MERRY Christmas
and Happy New Year" They do
not mean much, I'll admit, but they
are refined and will offend no one.
They, these writers. say you should
start a. letter with something that
will make a fellow sit up and take
notice. If salesman came into

SOLDIERS INSURANCE.

Through the protection Offered
by the government to private IN
surance companies during the
war. soldiers holding pGiicies in
the outside companies were able
to retain them without fear OF
loss or lapse due to non-payment
Of premiums. The war risk IN
surance bureau, the federal
agency charged with the care OF
soldiers insurance interests dur
ing the war, made public recent
ly figures showing that the gov
eminent had protected 7739 poll
cies for soldiers, having a face
value Of 1881 ,456.29 and held
by 152 separate companies.
The bureau also announces
that the cooperation between the
private companies and the gov
ernment organization has been
most satisfactory, even to a point
where the outside organizations
have instructed their actuaries to
advise the soldiers to retain the
government insurance they ac-
quired in service. Soldiers Of the
war are now holding more than
forty billion dollars worth OF
government insurance.

ANOTHER UNBIASED EX-
PRESTON.

And now comes forward the
American Manufacturers Export
association, made up OF men OF
every political belief, and de-
mands prompt ratification Of the
treaty Of peace. AT its annual
convention in New York City the
association adopted resolution
which declares the following;
Delay in ratifying the peace
has contributed to industrial he
sitancy and stagnation through
out the world, as well as to So
cial unrest. and for that reason
the manufacturing exporters OF
the iation urge upon the senate
the necessity for early action ON
the treaty of peace.
This is but another expression
of the unbiased and non partisan
opinion Of the country. Every
time that it has gained express
sion the same feeling has been
disclosed. 1t is remarkable
fact that the opponents OF the
treaty cannot point to single
gathering Of national proportions
made up of mixed political ele-
ments and devoted to some out
standing interest in the country
which has indorsed the stand tax
en- by Senator Lodge and his as
sociates in the senate. On the
contrary their stand has been re-
peatedly condemned and every
time resolutions have been adopt
ed by great national gatherings
of representative business men,
professional men or working men
on the subject they have de-
manded prompt ratification OF
the treaty
It cannot be possible that
everybody is wrong but the eX-
trcme anti Wilson partisans. 1t
cannot be possible that the whole
country has gone Wilson-mad.
There cannot be the least doubt
as to the sentiment Of the great
err portion Of the American peo-
pie. When such expressions come
with such unanimity from all di-
rections it can mean only one
thing. and that is that the pao-
pie are for the treaty and for the
League of Nations. But only on
the supposition that the great
bulk of the leaders of thought in
all fields are wrong and that only
Senator Lodge and his follow
ers in the senate are right can
the continued delay in disposing
of the treaty be justified. Does
any unbiased man believe that p

Fertilizing Growing Crops

Side applications OF fertilizers II

county agents the names of leading
farmers of North and South Carolina

other things, TO tell how they fertil.
ized their cotton. In these answers
large proportion report that they
make side applications of fertilizer.

Side Applications. to Cotton.
/ At the time the cotton plant Is ina
full bloom ample plant food must be-
available or else a large percentageI
of the squares will shed. While there.
are other factors that cause shedding. j
for example. lack Of proper amountl
of moisture; still. il has been proven
that even with the most favorable
moisture conditions, lack of plant
food is the potent cause Of this,
trouble.
Under bollg weevil conditions, the.
fertilizer used in side applications
should contain a high percentage OF
phosphoric acid and a rather low per-
centage of nitrogen. This fertilizer
has the effect of forcing the young,
bolis TO. quick growth. and early ma
turity./
Side Applications to Corn.
While IL usually pays TO make o
larger side application Of fertilizer for
cotton than for corn, still. many OF
the best farmers in the Southeast
advocate liberal side applications for
corn.
