IRON ORE IN NORTH CAROLINA.

The continuous production of grown
hematite Cron ore) in North Caroline
during the last five years has attracted
attention to that state as a possible
source of an abundant supply of ore Of
that kind when the demand for it be-
comes greater. Since the beginning
of 1917 about 10000 tons of brown
hematie has been produced in the
state, large part, of it in Cherokee
county.
Most of the deposits of brown ore in
North Carolina are found in the val
leys that lie between the mountain
ranges in the western part Of the state
and on the Piedmont Plateau, in its
central part. Some deposits are found
in the Costal Plain, but they are of
little value. The largest deposits in
the mountain district are in Cherokee,
Madison, and Mcdowell counties.
Those in the Piedmont region are in
Catawba, Lincoln, and CASTOR coun-
ties. .iME
The origin and age Of the deposits,
the character Of the ore, and other per-
tinent information are set forth in a
report by W. S. Bayley, just published
by the United States Geological Sur
vey, as Bulletin 1857.

hurley GRADING WORK SEEN
AS BETTER MARKETING MOVE

Lexington, Ky. - Tobacco garding
demonstrations that are being put on
over the hurley district this fall
through the cooperation of the Burnley
Tobacco Growers Cooperative Associ-
alton, county agricultural agents and
the college of Agriculture mark big
step toward better methods of market
ing Kentucky farm products, accord
ing to o. B. Jesness, chief fthe mar
keting section of the cellege. The i'm
portance of striving for uniformity and
quality in the hurley leaf crop will be
stressed in the demonstrations. Any
farm product that has these two char
acteristics is far less hard to market
than those that do not have them.
Tobacco manufacturers, like
others who deal in farm products buy
them for definite purposes and want
the grades best suited to their needs.
The tobacco manufacturer who is look
ing for a certain grade of smoking type
tobacco naturally prefers to buy uni
form lot of that tobacco rather than
a mixture of chewing and smoking
types. One of the big advantages Of the
cooperative tobacco marketing organ
izations is that the leaf handled by
them is sold on the basis of definite
grades so that the farmer is paid in
accordance with what he produces.
The same principle holde true with
other products. 1t is important to
know market demands and preferences
an dbe guided by them in producing
for the market Butter made from low
quality creay, sells at lower prices
cream and the difference in the price
paid the farmer for cream. Apples
which have been injured by insects,
diseases or bruises or which are un-
graded do not sell nearly as well as
those which are uniform and of good
quality. The potato crop is large this
year but the leading potato-growing
states are taking steps to Offset this
heavy production by giving special at
tention to grading so that their output
may find satisfactory markets.
Standardization and grading have
aided considerably in developing many
of the outstanding cooperative mar,
ketings organizations in the country.
Marketing organizations handling such
products as citrus fruits, butter,
cheese, apples, cranberries, raisons,
wool and eggs have used careful grad
ing and by so doing have stimulated
the demand for their products and in
creased the prices obtained for their
members"

A SOUTHERN SUNSET.

Rare isles of light in crimson oceans

Whose breezy waves seem ripping,

Up the soft slopes of many mystic

While luminous capes and noun

In golden pomp and proud regality,
O'erlook the frontiers Of that fairy

But now in transformation. swift

The vision changes! Castles glittering

Commingle with cast spire and gor

Round which the sunset rolls its

Girding the transient Venice of the

The Matter With
Education.

INTELLECTUAL anemia Is
raging today in education,
says Prof. Henry Allen
Overstreet, of the College of the
City of New York. Teachers
who try to make their pupils
think for themselves are
squelched by the system. The
students that come to me
haven't any minds.
The trouble is in the curricu-
lum, the ideal and the method.
We are seeking to make children a
weak solution of a hundred text
books. We are talking too much
about knowledge, too little about
power. Our children are overfed
and undernourished. They grow
mentally fat, not mentally strong.
Physical food that is undigest-
ed not only does no good to the
body, it is a positive evil. Mental
food that is undigested dulls,
deadens, paralyzes mental health
and energy. Our ideal is to make
these children encyclopedias in
skirts or in trousers. We fail in
this, Of course, and their minds
are unframed.
A genius is a man whose mind
is strong enough to overcome his
education.
We need trained minds, toned
up and exercised as we develop
a muscle. We need to have
trained senses, trained perception,
trained observation, trained rea-
soning, trained imagination,
trained responsibility, trained
initiative, trained expression in
language, trained appreciation of
the beautiful, trained citizenship,
trained ethics and morals -
trained thinking.
These our schools and colleges
do not give. That's what is the
matter with Education. -.

But, even so, crumbs still are crumbs,
And fondly heart to heart will call,
II summer comes.
TNHE cool resorts along the sea
Il And whore the green woods grace the slopes

With new ambitions and fond hopes,
And love will cast its usual spell,

courtesy, helpfulness. 1t is equally
true as a promoter of cordial re-

simply the fine spirit of brother
hood writ large, not as a vague

Treaties, at their best, merely
bind governments; they do not
bring the peoples Of these nations
into closer relations of common
understanding, sympathy and
helpfulness. The finer spirit of
kindness has no fear Of Gen

NIX weeks ago the Erie Rail

bankruptcy if it had not re-
ceived a check of 100000 from
one of the mines involved in this
coal strike.
The owners of this mine are
among those who clamor that
miners wages are SO high that
the mines cannot be operated at
a profit until labor is "liqui-
datedo-that is until wages are
reduced.
No talk of liquidating accumu-
lated profits such as are indicated
by this 100000 surreptitiously
slipped by the coal mine to its
side partner, the railroad. Per
haps the railroad will quietly slip
it back to the coal mine with
100000 or 100000 bonus
added after the railroads have
s'iquidated" their labor. That's
the next step on the program.
When the miners are starved and
crushed, the railroad workers are
to be next. Liquidating labor.
The coal and railroad industries
are the two glaring examples of
inefficient management attempt
ing to unload upon labor the
burden of managerial inefficiency.
The railroads have been able to
see no way out of their financial
! dilemma save to slash wages. The
Railroad Labor Board has already
made all wage reductions that can
be justly demanded if the quality
of railroad labor is to be main
tanned. The result in increasing
railroad net income has been In
significant. But the managers
cry for more. They must have
their profits. You can't pay
money to the men who work and
still have it left for the stock
holders who don't work.

The Passover
and Freedom

IN HE Jews of America, young
survivors of the oldest peo-
pie, blended toward the max
ing of this human American ma
ton, began Wednesday evening
the celebration of their Passover
feast.
1t may be a banal mixing of
metaphors and historic periods to
put it this way, but the obvious
comparison suggests itself as par
ticularly interesting to the Ameri-
can mind that the Passover is the
Jewish Fourth Of July.
! Indeed, the Passover is the
worlds oldest festival Of freedom.
Without flattery one may say
that it is a proud heritage even in
America to be a Jew with $500
years old record of devotion to
the ideal of freedom.
For many centuries now, indeed
ever since the loss of the Holy
Land, pious Jews have been wont
to eat their unleavened cakes, the
bread of affliction, as they remi-
niscently call it, and to sigh as
they sing: "This year here, next
year in Jerusalem; this year in
exile, next year in freedom.
Today, thanks to determined eff
fort on the part Of thousands of
Jews, backed by the enlightened
self-interest of Britain, the Zion
istic dream seems near to fulfill
ment.
If Palestine should indeed be-
come the actual homeland Of per-
secuted Jews, it would for Jewish
Americans be only the heart-land
to which their historic memory
would cling and Of which their
prophetic hopes might expect a
second spiritual fruiting.
Be that as it may, America is
certainly the richer in spirit and
the more devoted to freedom be-
cause of the presence in our popu-
lation of this large Hebraic ele-
ment, which loves liberty and Is
sympathetic because it has known
the sorrow and suffering of bond
age.

self for the care lines which should not be in

She has tried TO please you, and the worry
you have caused her is largely responsible for
her fading beauty.
II you think seriously on this subject you
win remember countless instances when you
have not assumed the responsibilities around
home which should have been yours and that
have put burdens upon her.
You have not done your part In caring for
the children.
You have engaged in UNDERTAKINGS which
have caused her great anxiety
Your dsmsanor at home has been exaotinR.
