County Institution Has Splendid Crop

1t is the general opinion that most
every Agricultural High School IN
the State was located on the poorest
tyne Of soil TO be found in the cOun-
I ty and this is true OF u Agrlcul-
tural High School, consequently near
~ all OF them fail to produce a good
crop. Our School farm has always
doing fairly well, considering the
amount in cultivation, though at this
time it is far above the average. |
have visited the School farm and spent
an hour or so Jas all taxpayers should
who can consistently do so, because
it is County property. l found ON
this visit one Of the best crops |
nave seen this season. The man in
charge tells me he used four hundred
pounds of acid which was left from
last year and added two hundred
pounds of cotton seed meal. This
amount with five thousand pounds
of stable was used on the
old ground, which INCLUDES twelve
acres. There are six acres of fresh
ground that has no fertilize of any
kind, though the entire field is ter
raced. ] feel safe in saying that the
school farm will produce 800 bushels
of corn and at least 100 bushels of
Soy and Velvet beans. All the old
ground has every third row in either
Soy or Velvet beans and then there are
about two acres solid in Soy beans. All
the fresh ground has peas with the
corn and will make a splendid crop.
The sweet potato crop will produce
two or three hundred bushels and the
fall garden is going TO be good. Only
one school hoy is hired on the farm
for q period Of three and one-halt
months. 100 bushels of oats have
already been harvested and this was
followed by corn.
| The School has recently purchased
a young famous Duroc-Jersey boar tc
: place at the head of the swine hero
/ and a nice registered bull is at the
head of the dairy herd.
We are expecting our County Schoo.
: No grow and that We can make similar
reports from year to year.

The old saying that better villages
do not mean better roads, but better
roads mean better villages, has truly
been borne out.
Considering IN the light of econo-
my; If improved roads cost twice their
present cost, they would still be the
most economical investment a COM
munlty could make, and be sure of
instant returns, The cost of hauling
l. n OF the most serious obstacles a
farmer has to combat. With improv-
ed roads. a farmer is able to haul an.
increased load, at decreased time, with
a minimum of wear and tear ON his
vehicle. In addition to this, improv-
ed roads increase reaiestate values to
a much larger extent than is general
~ realized. Good roads are the stand
ard by which homeseekers Judge a
community, and this is becoming more
true as the people come to realize
their vital necessity.
Much publicity has recently been
given to the SO called startling move
ment of the people from the country
to the city, In a statement recently
issued by the noted statistician, Rog.
er W. BabSon, this human tide is
shown to be turning back to the coun-
. Try at a rate almost as alarming a,
; It's influx. This can be accounted foi
: 10y no other cause than improved roads
Good roads have made it possible fol
u the cities to scatter their population
to the fields lying idle around thei
) suburbs, and make this land feec
i them. Mr., Babson sees in the futur,
a removal of many industries, nov
centralized in the cities, to the coun
try. where according to him condi
y tons would be more favorable. I'm

TAG STORE
FROM THE PEOPLE.
Editor of the Beacon

Editor of the Beacon -
Gentlemen:
| am writing you this letter in order
that through you may be able to
encourage young men of my communi-
ty to support the plan for National
Defense as prescribed by Congress by
attending the Citizens Military Train
ing Camps held all over the United
States during the summer months Of
each year.
| am now attending such a camp
which is being held at FIT. Barrancas,
near Pensacola, Fla, and is used to
turn out citizens trained in the work
Of the Coast Artillery Corps. The
camp has an attendance around 300
men, the course lasting four weeks.
We are being instructed in exactly the
same subjects as the Regular Army.
such as infantry WORK, Artillery Drill,
Guard Duty, etc. We will have tar
get practice next week firing IL and
10 inch disappearing guns. In with
the instruction We have a good time,
dancing swimming, fishing and athletics
1t certainly does make a fellow feel
good to do a good days work follow
ed by a plunge in the Gulf of Mexico
and some real food. z
1t seems a pity to me that SO few
young men take advantage of this
opportunity to get out in the open for
four weeks during the summer and
living a mans life. 1t cost nothing,
the government furnished the trans
portation to and from camp and good
food and uniforms while at camp. The
Regular Army officers are all trying
to make the scheme a 90 by treating
US fair and giving US invaluable in
struction. Besides benefiting myself
by the outdoor life and comradeship
found here the nation is also being
benefited because in time of war the
citizens who have been taking this
will be valuable to the country. J
hope that more young men wiz
take advantage of this opportunity
next summer by ;pplying to the War
Department.
Yours truly,
THOMAS C. HARVEY

THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY.

In rcsponse to many requests, the
State Highway Departments rs
sued a bulletin on The benel''S u
Good Roads which in a lew "oruS
sets the principal benefits that a com
immunity may derive from improved
roads. and show the crying need ior
them, 81
This bulletin reads in part as loi-
lows: Roads are veins ard arteries,
by mean of WHICH the circulation o
the body social and polite Is carried
on. Where there are no roads or the
roads are in such condition as to De
impassable, the result is the same as
If the circulation in the human body
were retarded; namely, civilization IN
all It's phases cannot advance.
During the past sin years, the
United States has probably built more
roads than any other two nations III
the world, but the work Is still IN It's
infancy. When the fact Is taken into
consideration that this country IS al
most as large as entire Europe, 8
better conception Of the gigantic tasF
that is before the people may be Oh
tanned. The marvellous increase III tn,
use of the motor vehicle in all walk'
of life demands that the United State
be provided with a connected Nation
al system Of highways, through whicl
the industrial blood Of the Nation ma.
circulate in any kind of a crisis. TIN
fact has been grasped by the Govern
ment, and such a system is unde
construction through the cooperatio
OF the States.
"The transition from the wager {
the motor truck, which begun in thi
century, is not yet complete, and a
though the road problem is vital &c
day, it grows more so with each pass
ing year. Where a community hE
one good road, the work is not ALLOW
ed TO stop there, for the numerous in
provementS and benefits that folio
in its wake are evident to all. In
proved roads have made possible col
solidated schools, which according
statistics are responsible for the e,
uGation of from eight to ten out
every hundred children in the rur,
schools. Better churches with larg,
congregations have beer made poss
bic, and community gatherings Of 2
kinds have been facilitated. In mar
instances, improved roads have MAJ
possible extension Of rural mail J
livery routes. and in all cases ha,
they been made quicker and sure
