STAY ON THE FARM
This was the strong appeal made
to the negro conference at Tuskegee
Institute last week where speakers,
both white and colored presented ar
guments favorable to the farming op-
portunities of the South for the ne
gro. Advice was given to make better
homes and provide education and en-
tertainment for their children that
would offset the lure of cities.
Promises too, of help in routing the
boil weevil from their cotton fields
were made by the plan to introduce
demonstration plots of E to s acres
all through the cotton belt for color
ed as well as white farmers to learn
the best way to raise a crop of cot
ton under any conditions. This work
will be carried on by national asso-
citation for boil weevil control.

Redfield, former secretary OF commerce stated at
the annual dinner of the Holland Society of Amer

many are unemployed, could be placed in the
South Atlantic states to till the soil left vacant by
the exodus of negroes Mr.. Redfied is right This
could be done, and still it isn't In the first place.
the Dutch farmers do not know that there is such
states as Georgia and in the second place there
seems to be no strong sentiment to bring them
over. Just the some the Dutch are the worlds
greatest farmers and they become easily assmi-
lated"
The Atlanta Constitution has a great op-
portunlty in this suggestion Of their versatile fea-
ture writer, Mr.. Van Paassen thoroughly inform
ed as to the possibilities of Georgia's soil as well
as OF the character of the Dutch farmer among
whom he spent the major part of his life, should

The Constitution can feel assured that the land

also be glad to contribute their efforts in such a
movement of producers in their respective terri

SHOULD BE GOVERNMENT
WARDS


Declaring all present efforts to fight
the dope evil entirely Inadequate a
plan to make the government provide
facilities for treatment of drug add
icts was suggested at a recent civic
club meeting in Atlanta. While the
dope habit is one of the most serious
of our national problems today, so
closely associated as it is with crime,
still there is no institution anywhere
maintained by the government for the
cure of addicts. This want is plainly
shown by the frequent appeals for
penitentiary protection which is one
place where treatment is effectively
given. In many instances men and wo-
men too have willfully violated a
statute in order to get that outside
control of their addiction, al :ng
their own helplessness to. withstand
its hold, or to- endure the suffering
from the loss of the drug without
treatment. Dope is declared to be the
cause of the increase of women pri-
soners in particular and of all prison
ers to great extent as two out of five
prisoners are dope addicts and of wo-
men, four out of five.

In making plans for the 1924 crops. let's NOT ov

Tor eggs and poultry shipped into the South each
year Let's grow these things at home. Certainly
II the farmers of Missouri Illinois, Iowa and 9th
er Northern and Eastern states can produce noul
try and eggs, pay the long freight or express bau
down here and then make profit, there is every
reason why sould make bigger profit nv
growing them right here at home and supplvine
the local markets.
In the Central Western states many farms keen
from 200 to 600 hens the average being some
around $50 to 400, In the cotton states II
runs from 20 to 100, with an average of around
80 to 40
In 1920 the total value OF all animal products was
approximately S5O0O,OO0,OOO, with one-fifth of it
coming from poultry Thus we see that the poul-
try crop is a billion dollar crop in the United
States but altogether too small portion OF it is
produced in the South. Therefore in deciding on
the side-lines for the coming season, let's make
up our mind to pay more attention to poultry, be-
cause it will put dollars in our pockets to do so.

CRIME WAVE SURVEY
A startling revelation is made by a
recent tabulation in Indiana of crime
and criminals This survey showed
that youthful delinquency is so much
on the increase that for their partic-
ular section in the period of 1922 8
the average age of criminals has drop
ped 3 to- years, with most major
crimes now committed there by boys
between the ages of II and 21. This
is terrible arrangement of moral in
fluences there and elsewhere where
general observation would suggest
similar conditions. Surely child sui
eide is of recent development and
the newspapers of the country have
frequent reports of such. Are they not
victims of bad environment, neglect
and parental ignorance of children S
needs or even their rights?
