The State Council of Defense is
advocating the first really safe and
sane celebration of the Fourth of
July throughout the state. Fire
works are to be tabooed, and the
day is to be devoted to patriotic
demonstrations. All communities
are requested to undertake pro
grams of this character, including
addresses by prominent local or
visiting speakers, explaining the
cause of the war and why the
United States has become involved
in it; the reading of the Declaration
of Independence, the president’s
war message, flag day address and
other patriotic papers, with patriot
i; music, and an appeal to the men
of the state to enlist in some
branch of the federal service.
DON’T BURN HUMUS.
The reckless distruction of humus
and soil fertility now going on all
over the South is nothing less than
appalling. Years ago Dr. Knapp
in writing The Progressive Farmer
said our people “must use less fire
and more sense” in dealing with
their fields. A wise God spends a
yrar growing a coaling of leaves
a \d vegetation to rot and enrich
t e soil, and then a fool man comes
abng and in a few minutes brings
t) naught all nature’s efforts to
k ;ep the land productive. "Fools
and Fire” make a good alliteration.
No matter whether it be in field or
forest, a humus-destroying fire ad
v /rtises the fact that a neighbor
hood has in it a man who is either
a fool or criminally careless.
KEEP YOUR BOY ON THE FARM.
Give your boy a cow and calf, a
ho* or a few chickens. Let him
mike something for himself and
then let him use what he makes.
Tj.ke him into your confidence; tell
him of your plans, and„he will re
pay you by unfolding to you his
o vn plans and ambitions. Are you
merely “the old min," or are you
your boy's partner and adviser?
This does not mean that no dis
cipline is to be exercised. The
wori “discipline” is misunderstood
by many people. It is not merely
the frequent use of the rod. Don’t
nuke your boy fear you, but re
; p ct and honor you. Be firm but
rot unkind.
Don’t try to fool him. A boy's
s i .se of injustice is very great. If
you promise him a pig and then sell
the pig he will become suspicious.
1; you make him work for nothing
you will find that he will begin to
uread work.
Don’t make him work all through
th; long summer days without any
f nun of pleasure or recreation.
Give him at least a part of Satur
day afternoon for playing baseball.
La him go on a picnic or fishing
trip with other boys and go with
him yourself. Be his companion
as well as partner.- The Progres
sive Farmer.
