Agriculture in the Public Schools.
Professor S. A. M inear of Fort
Stockton, Texas, in National Co
operator, says:
School gardening is presented with
the elements of permanency inherited
in itself, for Europe nas over a hun
dred thousand school gardens today,
which have become a feature of the
educational field.
In Cleveland and Dayton, Ohio, in
Philadelphia and Kansas City, it has
raised adjoining real estate, and in
the city of San Antonio, Texas, it
has raised the value of lots where
children worked with the soil and
growing plants.
This work is comparatively new to
Texas, but it is not, however, in an
experimental stage, for in the District
of Columbia, Connecticut, New York
and other states it has been conduct
ed with various results.
On the other hand, there are many
educators who look upon this work as
a fad, but they are stimulated by po
litical movements, which will event
ually fade away.
Agriculture in a broad sense is the
primary basis or wealth In this coun
try, and we should do all in our power
to bring early to the mind of the
child facts which will point out the
necessity and importance of such
work conducted on a systematic and
scientific basis. •
It is well known by all who have
the opportunity of being connected
with the public schools, that the pub
lic school education causes us to for
get our relationship to the soil and
points to the farmer as being a man
without a future. To allow such to
continue is a sad mistake and will no
doubt injure the child.
The work in a city may be entirely
different from what it should be in a
rural district. In the city the main
ideas should be to combine moral and
physical training, to throw off the
class room restraints and to give the
child an opportunity to stretch its
limbs. To accomplish such, it should
be done through some form of manual
training, and there is no form better
than the school garden.
In the rural districts the point of
view should not be to maintain com
mon methods used at home. The
mental strain does not exist in these
schools as in the city, because the
average country boy brings about the
equilibrium between the mental and
physical functions, therefore it would
be wise to teach an elementary prin
ciple of agriculture in such schools,
anil have a irarrlen where it could be
conducted in a manner which would
eventually effect the industrial devel
opment of this state.
No attempt heretofore has been
made to present the methods for this
state in a written form and I hope
these chapters will help lead the way
to better things. Conditions existing
at San Antonio. Texas, have been
constantly kept in mind in preparing
this work; therefore, what is said
will vary according to the locality.
The community system of garden
ing is where the children take care of
the garden in general. This system
does not strongly develop the idea of
individual responsibility, and a hoy
has a tendency to care little for the
plants which others have shared in
producing. This brings about lack
of interest and many boys will shirk
responsibility.
The Individual system is where
each boy possesses a small plot of
ground for a garden. Each boy per
forms every operation of preparation,
planting and general care of the
plants grown in his garden. Thu
system furnishes a basis of valuable
knowledge and is superior to any
system yet. tested.
Were there only large cities, how
poorly would fare the farmers and
the others who toil for a livelihood.

Of Rest Material and Workmanship j
The Function of Warehouses.
I am glad to see the boys presenting *
the proposition to store cotton at |
home and market through the ware
houses. I hope some good ideas will
be forthcoming. This is a very deep
subject, my brothers, and you will do
well to give it your best thought and
not jump at some hastily concocted
theory. Two things you must bear in
mind: Shy lock will always be well
pleased if you will so arrange your
products that will enable him to levy
a tax against them—$3,000,000 insur
ance on the Texas cotton crop is a
sweet morsel. Money borrowed on
cotton certificates is quite an adjunct,
and is just a new method of letting
the other fellow eat your cake while
you hold it.
The paramount question with the
farmer is, “How Can I Avoid Interest. j
and Rent?” and with Shy lock, “How !
Can 1 Get Interest and Rent? When |
the farmer bulks or concentrates hi ;
products in any commercial center,
dependent on others than himself for
protection as to its safety, this affords
an opening for taxation—by the other
fellow.
If you don't expect to market al!
your cotton in one, two, three or four
months, nothing can be gained by
storing it in either your local or cen
tral warehouse. We need a ware
house, however, in every rail rad town,
or central shipping station. Your
warehouse should be large enough to
hold say from one-tenth to one-half
the cotton tributary to such a shipping
point.
If you don't expect to'eat a whole
year's rations at one meal why cook
it all at once? Do you want a bread j
pan large enough for fifty when there I
are only two in your family?
How many farmers do you think
would market through a warehouse
i system if you could cut out from two
; to eight months’ storage and insur
, ance? I know a few.
I admire an all-wool-and-a-yard-wide
Farmers’ Union man that says he wiil
hold until the bagging rots. We need
you very much. 1 was absent from my
local three times in four years, and
was sick twice. Never missed a county
1 meeting. I know all the boys. But,
brethren, we must be practical. If
you can't carry the log roll it. If we
have a method the boys won’t co
operate under, fix one they will; there
is more than one way to get a boy to
work. Look and see what you have
butted your head against. Be sure you
know. I am looking and listening al
ways. Fraternally—J. J. Denver, In

The enemy is too strong and too
well organized now for any time to be

Just tell 'em ’at you saw it in The Journal
Everybody knows that malaria, chills and fever, ague and Buch disorders, are caused by poison.
Do you know how to prevent the poison from getting into your blood; how to drive it away, when there ?
Take Thedford’s Black-Draught, the great vegetable liver regulator, so successful for over 70 years, through
out the Southern States.
No other like it, except its imitations, and those only in outward appearance.
Appearances, and imitations, are deceitful.
So be sure you insist on the genuine—
Thedford’s
BLACK-DRAUGHT
Edna Rutherford, of Atlanta, Tex., writes: “Thedford’s Black-Draught has done me so much good that I
wish to publicly acknowledge it. 1 suffered for five years with dumb chills and fever, more than 1 can tell. 1 tried
all the medicines I could think of, but they did me no good. At last I took Thedford’s Black-Draught and am won
derfully improved. I am better now than I have been for many months, thanks to your wonderful medicine.”
