With the building up of dairy herds and the piessing necessity for better roads throughout the countryside the oppo sition to bond issues for road building has practically disappeared, and we may count this in as merely another phrase of the Butterfat Uplift. To return to strictly rural topics taere is going on round-about Hickory oed the near-by county seat of Newton a well-organized follow-up campaign to crystallize and manifold the ber.e fits tlfat can trace their source to the organization of the creamery. The of ficers and directors of the creamery —fanners every one of them—aie h ading in this campaign, and, as lead cr of the leaders, special merest at taches to the work of John W. Robin son, president of the creamery. Mr. Robinson is what President Wil son should likely term a forward-look ing young southern farmer who works on the theory that financial uplift is just the entering wedge to the reaj missionary work to be done in the countryside. His attractive young wife, v.ho was a town girl, is just as en thusiastic as he is and devotes every bit of her spare time to getting the farmers’ wives and daughters together THE BARTOW TRIBUNE, APRIL 9, 1914. and building up the social life in the ; country. She has organized a Country I v Oman’s Club to discuss community j betterment, started girls’ canning clubs in many districts, and she hopes to organize a co-operative laundry in connection with the creamery. Work ing in the Killians school district of Catawba county the Robinsons, through the Farmers’ Union of that district, have made a census of fifty e ght families, which furnishes them a splendid key to the community-better ment work they have undertaken. Little Things in the Back Country. “Some of the questions we asked,” said Mr. Robinson, "may seem trival I and to have no real bearing on our work, but they are really all-impor tant when you come to study them out j on the ground and at the homes ot j those we are seeking to interest and help. Our country churches have suf fered, just as have other country churches in other sections. Our coun try parsons were more or less discour aged in their work and they did not seem to see their way clear to aid in the practical work we were doing. Now they are looking at it from a dif ferent angle and are as eager as they were seemingly indifferent before to unite their efforts with ours. By tak ing up practical, every-day subjects that help in the betterment of family life they increase community interest in their work and at the same time in crease the attendance at their church es That’s why we are urging the peo ple to attend church more regularly and interesting more of the children in Sunday school work. “Next to better church attendance we place the general subject of educa tion and a lively interest in the affairs of the day. Not enough of our farmers and their womenfolk and children rear) newspapers or magazines. Many fami lies in the back country do no reading at all. I have found scores in the course of my visiting round—and this had no connection with the survey who never saw even the county paper They had no live interest in their owr locality, let alone the country or the world at large. Here is something of first importance that we must boost The county paper can do much t quicken interest in good roads and bet ter schools, in better government and in the good things that are being done by our friends and neighbors. ‘‘We do not feel that we can sto with the county paper, though, for this field has not a sufficiently broa< and entertaining interest. We canno get to the people the newest and fresh est ideas in this way and for that rea ‘son we are urging all bur people tc take the leading agricultural maga zmes and the women’s magazine Wherever you find a family supplied with such reading you will find a fam ily that is making big strides in the way of home betterments. In the past two years I have learned that it is part of my duty to the community to take up certain magazines and urge the people to take them regularly. I am not doing this to sell subscrip tions or to boost any particular publi cation just because 1 happen to favo it. though, of course, I caunot help praising those publications from which I have obtained ideas and benefits. “Those whose work does not take them much in the back country do not icalize how important these seemingly little things are. They do not under stand the prejudices and narrow-mind eciness we have to battle with. Befor the war traditions still hold strong sway in some localities, and with thest we must grapple with all our diploma tic skill. You will find patriotic sent' ments absolutely dead and interest i the National Government cr even th state government without existenc “In the many rounds I have mad< since I took up my work with th creamery I have found many farmer who never heard of Farmers’ Bulletir and who were sure when they learned that they came from Washington th: some Yankee evil must be attached t tiiem. We try to tell them now that r southerner is president of the United' States, that there are many southern' ers in the cabinet and that the Federa' Government is today doing all in it' power to aid the south. “You will notice how few families sleep with their windows open. A fresh air program may not seem important but my own experience tells me tha' it is so and this is one of the many doctrines we are preaching. “When we took up the subject of the remoteness of wells and springs from homes we were amazed at the amount of wasted energy in the coun tryside. In the case of one old couple we figured that they had carried water hundreds of miles in the course of their married life. Why, it seemed that just about half their energies had been expended in journeying between their well and their cottage with heavy water buckets. We got them to install a S6O ram and about all they talk about now is the rest and leisure they have found from the monotonous toil of carrying water. The old man has time now to plant and take care of a garden, look after a few pigs and at tend to a cow. Before he was too busy carrying w r ater to take up such bur dens. “So it is all along the line with the little things that few ever reckoned witn. The work is vastly Interesting and we consider that we have made only a beginning.” (To be continued.) -——VOTE FOR= C. W. SPROULL FOR Clerk of The Superior Court of Bartow County.
