„PROTECT THE NATION’S
2R CHILDREN
Education has been called the
nation’s biggest business. More than
25,000,000 pupils attend American
schools, ranging in size from little 1
room shacks in distant country-sides
to the magnificent stone structures
in our major cities.
As the National Board of Fire Under
writers points out, the nation owes
these children a great responsibility
—that of providing them with maxi
mum protetction from fire. The
tragic records of the past show how
badly we have failed in discharging
that duty. The history of every state
contains black pages which recount
school fires resulting in deaths of
helpless children.
Past surveys have demonstrated
that the average school is literally a
fire-trap— and some of the newest
and most expensive schools are as
dangerous in this respect as those
built thirty years ago. Improper
doors, faulty construction, inadequ
ate exits, carelessness in the storing
of inflamable supplies—here are
menaces of school buildings, thous
ands of school buildings, unknown
to the parents who send their child
ren to them.
The National Board is considering
a survey of schools throughout the
United States, as a preparation for
a general report on school properties
construction and equipment. If that
survey is made, it will produce much
valuable new data—data which
should be immediately acted upon in
the interest of protecting invaluable
lives.
A CO-OP MUST BE A BUSINESS
ORGANIZATION
“To be successful, a cooperative
must be sound,” said the General
Manager of the Pacific Egg Pro
ducers Cooperative recently. “It must
be a business organization, and not
simply a debating society. Maybe a
cooperative can be organized out of
boloney and bunk, to make a job for
some promoter and manager, but it
cannot last long unless it’s made of
something more substantial and
worthwhile.”
The history of the cooperative
movement in this country is proof of
the truth of that. In the past ten
years thousands of cooperatives have
come into being—and a percentage
of those have failed. Their failure
cannot be laid to the door of the
cooperative principle—it was due,
almost without exception, to un
sound management or politics which
made a big noise for a time but
didn’t produce results.
The cooperatives which have suc
ceeded, and which have grown
stronger and more respected year by
year, have been business organiza
tions. They haven’t put on a show.
They have stuck tenaciously to their
purpose. They have kept to the path
of sound economics. Their progress
has often been slow, and they have
been faced by what seemed almost
insuperable obstacles—but they have
managed to go steadily ahead. And
their members and the public at
large have reaped the benefit.
Critics of farm cooperation have
attempted to cast discredit on the en
tire movement by pointing to the ex-
ample of some obscure co-op which
failed. That is like saying the auto
mobile is worthless, because a car
made at home by someone without
knowledge of engineering or mechan
ics refuse to run.
Still Time To Plant
Winter Vegtables
(By Mrs. Callie H. Jordan Demon
stration Agent)
While most of the planting for
fall gardens and winter vegtables
should have already been planted,
there are yet many that should be
planted this month.
During the early part of September
snap beans, lettuce, turnips, kale,
mustard, beets, cabbage, collards and
carrots may be planted, also an early
variety of peas may be planted at
this time, if a very fertile and moist
spot of ground is available, onion
seed may be planted this month, for
next years crop. The seed may be
planted in the rows where they are
to remain permenantly, and thinned
out as they grow. The onion sets
should be planted now, for late fall
and early winter use, and if the tops
happen to get killed down by the cold
they usually come out again.
Sometime during the month of
September is a good time to plant
spinach, and by planting in on good
Ac, ground it will produce good
greens in 40 or 50 days, if weather is
favorable.
Tobacco beds would be a very good
plot to plant fall vegtables, that will
be harvested before the beds are
needed for planting the tobacco seed
as these beds are very fertile and too
they are usually moist and selected
spots, as to protection from cold, and
wind.
Every year about this time the
striped cabbage or collard bug does
much damage to both old an young
plants, and spraying with poisons,
such as arsenate of lead, etc, will do
no good, as this bug sucks the juices
from the plants, and does not eat
them. A spray of nicotine sulphate
will not effect the mature bugs, be
cause of their hard outer covering,
but it should be used on the young
ones, and the old ones picked off by
hand and dropped into a vessel con-
ta ining kerosene oil.
Turnip lice is controlled by spray
ing nicotine sulphate directly on
them, and from two to three appli-
cations is usually necessary. Use a
teaspoon of nicotine sulphate to a
gallon of water in which about an
ounce of soap has been disolved.
Cabbage worms may be controlled
by destroying all crop remnants as
soon as crop is harvested.
To protect the growing plant from
cabage worms, either dust or spray
with Paris Green, 5 level teaspoon
fuls to 3 gallons of water, to which
three-forth pounds hydrated lime has
been added. For dusting use mixture
of 1 pound Paris Green and ten
pounds hydrated lime. Do not use
paris green, calcium arsenate or
other poisons within 40 days of har
vest time. Apply to secure on plants
it is both dangerous and wasteful.
The above may be used for control-
ing the same worm on the collards in
the arly fall, and winter months.
