TO TI BS OUT BETTER WIVES
Common sense Is gradually assert
ing itself in the common school sys
tem of the land. The faddists who
have been endeavoring to make the
High Schools a weak imitation of
the colleges, and the grammar schools
a weaker imitations of High Schools,
are being relegated to the rear. The
tendency now is to make the course
of the instruction more practical, to
- cohsiner the arena in which the vast
. majority of the'boys and girls are
destined to spend their lives, and flt
. them, as much as possible, for the
. actm 1 work of life that Is ahead of
them. If the good work goes .
-there Is a fair probability that In a
Jew years there will be a more thor
ough instruction in the fundamentals.
In spelling, writing, reading, ordl
nary arithmetic, geography and his
tory, especially of their own country,
and to this will be added some gen
eral business instruction for ttys
boys, and domestic sciences for the
girls, that will tend to better equip
them, tor their respective missions.
Out in Chicago it Is now proposed
■*to teach the girls to cook ,to sew
to Oarn, to market, and to other
wise give them instruction along lines
i that will better adapt them to the
«. • Held of the wife and the mother. Of
i prniim* there will be the usual howl
• -against this from the dear old peda-
gogues who believe that because
JUatla was a compulsory feature of
the schools when they were child
ren, jzmd algebra and geometry were
driver, into their heads. that the
' children of the present must . be
i similarly unwisely treated. Teach
, era .are not missing who believe in
- the homeopathic educational system
now so much In vogue, including
■ three months in astronomy, three
, months in chemistry, one year in La-
v tin. a year jp German, and a simillar
"hodge podge of other, studies that
make up the greatest wasfo of time
for the average boy or girl that could
„ tr4H be conceived. If a clean brootu
- was used and a general sweeping out
- of the average school curriculum
made it would doubtless be very pro-
- ..Stable to the children and the na
tion.' The average girl, and the aver
age girl makes up Just abdqt ninety
nine per cent, of the sex, $ould very
-well get along without Batin, algebra,
Xo man is good enough to be given
the opportunity to lead the Democra
tic party to a sure defeat four times.
That is the way we feel about Bry
an. -
Mr. Bryan has many admirable
qualities, but his record, and the pos
ition he has taken on ctatain ques
tions in the past, are such that there
is not the remotest possibility that
he can ever become, the Presided
of the United States.
To nominate him again would mean
defeat for the Democratic party
that would exceed any defeat in Us
history, even that of Horace Greeley.
While we cannot concur in the be
lief of the New York' Herald that his
nomination would * probably pu,
Georgia in the Republican column, it
is easily i>erceivable that it would
return every State outside of the old
South to-the Republican ranks and
include in the Republican column
probably Kentucky and Virginia.
Mr. Bryan made an admirable fight
in the campaign just closed. We
do not believe any other Democrat
would have been elected, although
possibly another • candidate might
have caried one or two additional
states. But he will never be as
strong again. A perpetual candi
date does not commend himself to
the people. It is insufferable to sup
pose that a great party, the only truly
national party the country has ever
had, has within its ranks of six or
seven million voters but one man
qualified to become its standard bear-
Even Andrew Carnegie, the re
cent head of the Steel Trust, is ready
to admit that the tariff to protect
"infant industries" is absurd. In an
article soon to be published In a lead
ing magazine, Mr. Carnegie takes the
high ground that steel and other in
dustries have grown beyond the
classification of "infants." it might
be remarked that tbis same view
has had a wide acceptance . among
the people at large for some time, the
very designation of ' infant" applied
io the steel Trust, for instance, being
a joke. .*
At the coming session of congress
an effort will no doubt be made to
secure a revision of the tariff by
which the consumers will get a little
protection from the greed of the man
ufacturer who has hitherto enjoyed
all of the protection. Mr. Taft is
understand to be in favor of such a
revision, and the principal stumb
ling block would appear to be the
stand-pat” policy of Speaker Can
non. If Speaker Gannon can be pull
ed down the chances for a proper
revision of the tariff would be bright.
Mr. CarMgie, in the article refer
red to, advocates a heavy tax on lux
uries, with reductions for commodi
ties. This has been the contention
of the Democrats for many years, and
it is gratifying to see that the senti
ment created by the Democratic ar
guments has penetrated the Republi
can armor. The* exposures of graft
and greed in Republican circles have
weakened the influence of the pred
atory rich to an extent, and makes
possible a revision of the tariff
along sensible lines.
In. our humble opinion, -Mr. Bryan
made'a great blunder when he made
his announcement the other day,
dodging the question as to whether
he expected to lead the party again
In 1912. He showed, ^n his reply,
the same willingness to be its nomi
nee that he has done for the past
sixteen years. It w'ould have been
far more becoming in him, far more,
patriotic, if he had stated firmly and
in words that could not possibly be
twisted into a double meaning, that
he woBld not be a candidate but
would staunchly support the nomi
nees of the. party. That would have
endeared him to the party, ' raised
him i® the esteem of the nation, and
would have tended to solidify demo
cracy’s somewhat discordant ele
ments.
But If Mr. Bryan cannot under
stand the sentiment of the party he
should be made to “Understand
through the force of public opinion,
There is no reason why the Demo
cratic party should commit hari-kari
four years hence. The country needs
the party and it is' the duty of the
party to gird up its loins and prepare
for a battle for the preservation of
the rights of the people. The first
and most vita! step is to have it dis
tinctly understood that Mr. Bryan
is not to be the cadUate. And the
South must take tiff? position right
now that it will be found unalterably,
opposed to a fourth nomination for
Mr. Bryan. .That wllf settle It.
WHERE GOV. SMITH IS RIGHT.
Gov..Smith is right. Georgia has
, vast potentialities yet untold and un
measured. Iron and cottoir are here
abundance, and her water power
harnessed would turn the wheels
the world. But her greatest un
trained and undeveloped power is in
her growing children. In them lies
all of the possibilities of the future.
The 8tate’B greatest work is to edu
cate them aright, to prepare them for
their part in the grand development
work ahead. And to his etern-
credit be It said, the present Gov
ernor has been a staunch advocate of
every branch of education that prom
ises to turn out better equipped men
and wonpsn for the Georgia of the
future. We believe be has erred
many respects, hut this Is not one of
them. Here he -presents a clean sheet
and one that we eqf all admire and
commend, regardless as to how we
may view his position on other ques
tions that have agitated the State in
the past, and may again agttafo It a
few years hence. r:
AN INVITATION TO ALBANY
Our invitation to the citixens
Albany to run over to Amerlcus next
summer and enjoy the delights of u
refreshing ride on trolley cars still
holds good. Amerlcus is the nearest
point to Albany at which trolley cars
can be seen and the educational ex
perience will well repay lor the time
and money expended.
While here on any summer day of
. 1909 the Albanians can also see

mother a few years hence cannot very
well dispense with practical Instruc

_ appreciated. If the reform continues
the old Jokes about the new wife

Are all In line.

•■“What was this Pandora’s 1
that contained so much trouble?”
"A bandbox, my_son.”
(Chicago News.)
“I am a great believer in atmos
pheres being conductive of inspira
tion,” remarked the literary person.
"What atmosphere Inspires you to
the most work?” ,
“An atmosphere well filled with the
aroma of beefsteak and potatoes,
confessed the garret bard with
deep sigh.
Precisely So.
(Pittsburg Post)
"There are ten million microbes
constantly preying upon your sys-
I ^’Then no wonder I feel bad at
times. The competition must be
something fierce.”
WHY IS IT SOI
Why is not the country prosperous?
Why Is that In the North and the
South, and perhaps only In less de
gree in the West, the business Inter
ests generally are still suffering In
a measure from depression?
Here Is Sect. « Agriculture Wilson
announcing In proud tones that ‘ the
crops this'year are of the greatest
value the country has even known.
Eight billion dollars has come out of
the soil of.the land through the efforts
of the formers, If the Secretary’s fig'
ures v are correct. This, he states,
breaks all previous records, the value
of last year's crops , having been five
hundred million dollars belpw that
of this year.
Why, then, the dull times that am
said to exist? If God has blessed un
with crops worth eight billions • <
dollars why Is not the country as
whole overflowing with prosperity?-
When the people read such state
ments as that Issued by the Secretary
of Agriculture they are apt to' do
considerable quiet thinking. And those
who are not working steadily, and
those who find trouble In making both
ends meet even when they are work
ing on full time, and the farmers
who complain of low prices, and the
merchants who complain of dimin
ished trade and poor collections, will
be asking themselves, “Why?”
, ■ (Washington Post^
It is a fact, not very pleasant to
contemplate, that our. population in-
creases much more rapidly than the
yield of foodstuffs and other farm
products. Hence, we no longer en-
jov that inestimable blessing, cheap
living, without which no people can
long continue prosperous.
There is a remedy—Intelligent, dil
igent, and thrifty cultivation ot the
soil. If American formers should
adopt and adhere to the methods of
Belgian and French farmers, in less
than a decade the yield of our farm
products would be more than doub
led. We claim to lie the most ener
getic and progressive population in
the world, and yet, as a rule, our
farmers are some millions of sloven
ly agriculturalists. Abandoned farms,
worn-out old fields, puny crops,
weedy pastures in every State attest
this lamentable fact.
Collier’s Weekly cites poor seed
as one cause of tfiriftless farming in
the corn states. / Where $2,000 in
premiums are offered at county fairs
for horse shows, but $10 lu reward
are bestowed tor the corn shows;
whereas excellence In seeds is more
desirable than superiority in live
stock, for -it requires grain and for
age to make a fine horse ,a flne / cow,
a fine sheep, or a fine hog. If every
grain of corn planted were perfect,
that of itself would double the yield
of corn, and it requires no more la
bor to cultivate a stalk from a fault
less grain that one from a defective
grain, and the same is true of wheat,
oats, rye, barley, and all the vege
tables. In a measure, it is true of
cotton, rice. alfi tobacco; possibly so
of hemp, clover, alfalfa, and other
grasses. , ,
There should be more agricultural
schools, and every one should have
professor in love with his science,
graduated from Luther Burbank’s
American farms, properly tilled,
could'supply the world with food.
A farmer in York county, Pa.. has
succeeded In making an averago
yield of 35 barrels—175 bushels—of
corn per acre on his land. He ((id this
by intelligent rotation, perfect cultl-
ation, and the propagation of a
faultless seed. When he began, his
average yield on the same farm was
less than ten barrels an acre.
What that man did any other
farmer of the corn belt can do by
employing the same system of culti
vation and devoting to the work the
same love of the soil, the same intel
ligence to plan, and the same energy
to execute.
If some philanthropist like Mr.
Carnegie should offer $100,000 as re
ward for improved seeds, it would
bring more benefit to the American
people than $1,000,000 in libraries.
New York, Nov. 24.—Mrz. Caroline
L Pierce, who lives with her son on
a farm in Muliica township, N. J„
has just written a long letter, offer
ing her deep thanks to whoever can
tel! what she saw outside her win-
doy, flying over her turnip field on
the night of November 14. It was
Mrs. Pierce who saw it, not her son.
She says in her letter that she is
75 years old, hoping that she -Is “of
sound mind,” and believing the same.
Being a Christian, she continues, ev
ery word that-ehe writes is of purest
truth.
Her son left her aione in the nouse
that night, going to Egg Harbor. At
9 o’clock she started to retire. . She
found her bedroom lighted, though
there was no lamp in it. She saw
through her window a bright light.
This she thought was made by the
burning of her neighbor's house. ,

she saw a bail of fire rise out of the
distance and float toward her win

turnip field, coming so close to her
wnidow that she cried aloud. The

^Mrs, Pierce noticed that the ball of
fire was in the shape of a face, round

and -lay close to the face. The eyes
were sunken and the nose and mouth
were dark in color.

CAT MAKES DAILY
• TRIP OX TRAIN
UTILIZING FARM WASTE.
(Brooklyn Eagle.)
Dr. Wiley, the chemist of the De
partment of Agriculture, is making
some interesting experiments at
Washington In turning farm waste
Into wood alcohol for use as fuel and
for manufacturing purposes. As far
as the experiment has yet gone It
has dealt with corn and potatoes,
which were only used as animal food.
The making of alcohol from "fodder”
would tend to stimulate one of the
worst tendencies of farming at pres
ent, which is to sell the crops In
stead of feeding them on the farm.
All through the hill country — of
the East we hear about abandoned
farms, and complaint Is widespread
that our lands have deteriorated so
that farmers are unable to make
their living. Part of this Is due to
stripping the forests from the hill
sides, thus decreasing the water sup
ply, leaving fields to run dry which
formerly had abundant moisture. But
more of It is due to the failure to
feed out on the farm as much of
the crop as possible, thus securing
the needed fertilizer in the natural
way and of the best possible quality.
H as the result of Dr. Wiley’s ex
periments stilts are set up in farm
ing communities and the farmers sell
to stills corn and small potatoes on
which they might raise pigs, th*
farmers will have to invest theh
profits from the stills in commercial
fertilizers, which will be inferior to
that which they could have secured
from their own barnyards. There Is
talk of utilizing watermelons and
musk-melons which fall to come to
maturity, and no doubt there is a
good deal of waste which could be
turned Into alcohol with greater pro
fit than any use to which it is now
put.
The Wreckers,
New York, Nov. 24.—Commuting
has become such a fad in New Jer
sey that even the cats have started to
doing it. One travels between the
I^tckawanna station, at Montclair,
and the station In Hoboken every
day, and the other cats have been
seen in the neighborhood of the
tracks looking wistfully at the trains.
The animal which has become a
"regular” In passenger trains on the
Montclair branch of the Lackawan
na’s Morris and Essex division is a
maltese. No one knows who owns
it nor what its object is In making
daily trips to Hoboken. Suggestion
is made here that perhaps there, is
a Maria cat in Hoboken which has
cast a spell over the Montclair cat,
or that rats in the McAdoo tunnell
are the attraction. Whatever It is,
the maltese usually leaves here in a
train between 8:30 and 9 o’clock, and
returns home in another train before
7 in the evening. There are times
when it reaches the station about
daylight and boards an early train.
Why the schedule is changed no one
cau explain, and the cat is wholly
uncommunicative.
Stock brokers and other commuters
have become interested In tile anltnal,
and the trainmen make a [fet of it.
It never tries to get into a train
until the cars have stopped, nor to
get off a train In motion. Trainmen
say it never has been carried by its
station, and that in that respect It
Is more Intelligent than many of the
two-legged commuters.
This is a critical juncture in the
progress of Amerlcus. A mistake
made now will cost the city twenty
years ot vain regrets.
Municipal ownership of public util
ities, or the railway contract, seems
to be the Issue to he determined
the election of a council.
Several Amreicus “near” shriners
have gone to Savannah to take that
degree and will sprint It across the
hot sands tonight.
"Salesburg; all out lor Salesburg'
yelled a conductor as his train stop
ped at the Amerlcus depot yesterday.
Thus do we acquire fame.
The rumor that the local under
takers contemplated putting on
"sale” is denied. Already their busi
ness is run into the ground.
