Similar surveys will be taken in ev
ery school district of Catawba county
and a record kept of the names and
ages of every member of each family
interviewed. This should be of unique
value to the workers engaged in com
munity betterment, and commenting
on such surveys in all the county
schools should serve to awaken a live
ly interest.
Hast August the Robinsons program
ad and carried out a Harvest Home
Day, as the state had not provided
any institute for 1913. Here are some
or the features:
Why a boy should attend the agri
cultural college. A little talk by Oscar
Seitz, a farm boy who had worked
his way through the college of agri
culture and mechanic arts at West
Raleigh.
The farm boy in town and the town
boy on the farm. A little talk by Paul
Yoder, a town boy working his way
through the college of agriculture and
mechanic arts.
The duty of the teacher in the rural
schools, by Superintendent George E.
Long.
The health of the children in the
home school, by Doctor Blackburn.
The proper clothing for school chil
dren, by Mrs. Yates Killian.
The woman's club In the country,
by Mrs. John W. Robinson.
Five hundred farmers, their wives
and children, turned out for this Har
vest Home Day, some of them driving
in to the Killian school from as far
as thirty miles away. It was the first
gathering of the kind in the history
of that section and an effort will be
made to duplicate it regularly through
out the county. H. K. Foster, the
young county farm demonstrator,
made a rousing address on the Com
munity Spirit, pointing out the great
progress that had been made since
Che farmers had learned to get to
gether. There were three country par
sons present and every one of them
preached along the same progressive
lines.
The Women Help Themselves.
The women of Catawba county de
manded their rights emphatically
when they put it up to the men to
provide for them a woman expert in
domestic science just as they had
provided for themselves an expert as

AND EASILY OVERCOME
No Need to Risk Unpleasant, Often
Dangerous Calomel—Dodson’s
Liver Tone Takes Its Place.
You can now profit if you wish by
the experience of many people who
have found an easy, pleasant remedy
to take the place of calomel for con
stipation, sluggish liver, etc.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is best to take
instead of calomel and has brought
the brightness of health into many
households. It has none of the dis
agreeable and often dangerous after
effects of calomel.
Gilreath Drug Cos., a reputable local
druggist, positively guarantees to re
fund purchase price (50c.) of Dodson’s
Liver Tone in case you are not entire
ly satisfied after using it and as he
will recommend this remedy as a
strictly vegetable liquid, containing
nothing harmful, you run no risks of
any kind in trying it now.
Dodson’s Liver Tone never leaves
bad after-effects, but works easily
and naturally, without pain or gripe
and without interfering at all with
your regular habits, diet or occupation.

county farm demonstrator. They do
not propose that the girls’ canning
and poultry clubs, cooking clubs and
sewing clubs shall languish for lack
of interest and want of proper direc
tion. They desire to be just as pro
gressive as the masters of their home
destinies, and when they got together
on the proposition they carried their
point without a word of opposition. I
was informed early in November that
a woman expert to direct the work
already mapped out would be hired
early in the year and that by spring
she would have all the farm wives
ami farm girls organized to the min
ute.
Even the Lutheran College at Hick
ory has come into line, with the re
sult that the faculty has decided to
revise its curriculum to include ag
riculture as one of the institution’s
most important courses. The county
school board has never been a very
energetic body, primarily because of
a lack of funds and the failure of the
community as a community to turn
the pressure on.
“We have fed our school children
on Greek and iaitin roots and all the
antediluvian branches of fossilized
education,’’ said Mr. Shuford. “This is
fine, nourishing broth for a boy or a
girl who must live on a farm and
work out salvation amid pests and
plant diseases, droughts and floods.
But a county school commissioner
hates the idea of change worse than
a cat hates water. Talk to him about
introducing a course of elementary
agriculture in the schools and he
turns sour' as aloes and grumbles
something about a farm boy getting
all the farming he wants at home.
“But we’re going to get the dyna
mite under them and touch it off. It
won’t be long before we’ll have as
finely equipped schools in Catawba
county as there are anywhere in the
country, and the next step will be to
go after an agricultural high school.
Give us a few more good roads and
better schools all along the line and
nothing will stop the rural uplift of
this corner of the Tar Heel State.
We’ve got a lot of Dutch in us and
some of the best old stock in the coun
try to build on. We’ve been pretty
slow and pretty- backward in getting
started, but if you don’t believe we’re
on our way come back here in five
years and scan the hills for results.
I’ll wager my left arm it’ll be one of
the bloomingest spots in the universe
and I say that piously and with due
reverence to the advantages the Lord
has provided.’’
It is really fine to be able to record
this sort of optimism. It is a spirit
that has slumbered too long in the
south, but which, once fanned into
flame, is bound to spred and rejuve
nate a vast area of our agricultural
domain. The Butterfat Uplift of Cat
awba county marks anew epoch, and
the men who have inspired and engin
eered this uplift are making mighty
important history.
