ARE YOU (ilYINfi YOl'R
SCHOOL TEACHER A
SQUARE HEAL
The Best of Teachers Can do the
Be?t Work Only When Parents
C?operate With Them
I was talkking with a man not long
ago, a well-to-do father, and the
talk drifted to school teachers.
"Who is your school teacher this
year?" I inquired.
"Why er? a Mr. Smith. I' believe"
Is he a good teacher?"
"I guess so." he replied, "I've
been so busy that 1 hnvn't had time
to make the school a visit.
There you are. I happen to he a
school teacher and know the conditions.
Four months of this school
year is gone, and not a parent or
committeeman has entered the school
where I teach to see what kind of
work I am doing. The majority do
not question their children to see
how much and what they are learning.
They do not see that their children
study at night, nor do they back
up the teacher In the enforcement
of discipline.
How good it woud feel if a parent
were to come to me snd say: "I've
been watching your work. You have
a hard Job; I sympathize with you.
But what Is more, I am going to see
that my children study at night, and
attend school regularly and If you
need any help, I'm back of you."
Many parents do not send their
children regularly. Some pupils do
not attend half of the time. They are
a bother to the chlldrenlltQ m'.lhff
a bother to the teacher. What little
they learn Is disconnected They fall
behind their class and when examinations
come they fail to pass. Who
is to blame? The students? No. In
nine out of ten eases it is the parents.
The pupil is too young to realize
the importance of attending
regularly. The father or mother
who is older should see that they attend.
When the boy or girl is older
they will thank you for forcing them
to go to school. Or thcv may harhor
in their breasts ill feeling toward you
because of the injustice done them
in not being firm in your decision o<"
attendance.
It is the hoy or girl who is at their
desk every day that finally comes our

been proved by the compulsory
school law that is now in effort in
this state. It Is pood as far as it
goes; Its scope should bo wider than
from eight to twelve years, and
should foree attendance for more
.than four months In the year. Tint
the present law is getting wonderful
results At the age of twelve the
students are much further advanced
than they are at that age several
years ago. We need more of the
same thing
In every class I have some student
who stands out preeminently above
the others. I have Inquired Into this
and In every case I have found that
the parents take an interest In their
children. "Why," you may say? If
every parent does that " Do they
If they do some have a poor way of
showing It. The boy and girl who
advance rapidly are helped by the
parents, who see that they study at
night, have plenty of good clean
reading matter and good lights. Parents
who read a great deal and take
an Interest in things will as a rule
have children who are fond of reading.

boys are subscribed for.
Such things as this are things
that help the teacher. Recitations
pass smoothly and easily where the 1
parents cooperate with the teacher
in this manner. It means that your
boy or girl will grow up to be an ef- '
flclent man or woman.
Mr Farmer, think these things 1
over. Apply the things I have said
in somewhat of a haphazard manner
to yourself Then ask yourself the
question: "Have I been giving my (
teacher and my boys and girls a
square deal?" P. T. H.

a lucrative side line scleral farming.
or cjS a means of livelihood can
obtain a fund of information from
the newly created poultry course at
Clemson College, from July 31st to

made for the instruction that is
given from 8 o'clock in the morning
until rive o'clock in the evening.
Every minute of the time can be
^profitably spent, and when all ener_

one subject poultry raising, it Is
wonderful how much knowledge the
student will obtain
Monday. July 31st is devoted to a
study of the breeds of poultry, with
an explanation of the methods of the
successful fancier who produces
ribbon speclments that win the admiration
of the visitors at the fairs.
In the afternoon, the subject of poultry
diseases and their causes and
treatment will be discussed and tried
and tested remedies made known.

WARNING TO FARMERS
I
Prepare Now and Rest Easy When ;
the Boll Weevil Appears ()
Clemson College, June 23.?The u
boll weevil is coming this way and 1
the only tlulok? cheap method of ^
preparing for its arrival is thru a
system of farming based on:
1. Legumes. 0
2. Livestoc]-.
Legumes summer and wnter (
will furnish soil fertility and soil
ability in humus, nitro,,en. and soil ^
bactera supply th.^t will make economic
production possible and produce
livestock at a profit. Com-c
mercial fertilizers without humus *
will not do this, due to the fact that
there is not sufficient humus suppled i
to hoi moisture during drought to T
make use of such fertility; besides
the profits over home produced fertility
obtained through the humus. 'I
Therefore, plant velvet bgans In '
the rows of all corn crops even up 1 c
to the 15th of July. ntid row cowneas
in the middles at the last plowing to
supply both nitrosen and hum^
for future use C
P]an now to sow Abruzzi rye orjc
rye and vetch, or crimson clover oc ^
all pea stubble and in cotton middies
from September 15th, to October
15th to supply hunus op humus
and nitrogen on such lands. By
following this method, and by fall;
you will be ready thus far for the <
weavl] by the time that it arrives.
Livestock: The first foundation ( j
having been arranged for. livestock i
should be further provided for by 1
gradually establishing permanent '
pasturage and by putting on the ,
same gradually as pasturage and J
surplus feeds are produced for j
their support by a rotation of crops. t
You f*nn have or can get money now t
for making such a gradual change in
your system of farming It will be
for such a change after the arrival
of the weevil, for cotton will be a s
failure, for several veers at leas* 8
I
after the arrival of this pest. The
present basis, cotton, will not exist,
and ruin to the unprenared will re- s
suit, as a sudden change in vonr '
system will be bob nwkward and
expensive even tho credit should be
easy. A debt on short term credit. s
if reglstcycd a,,.ainst you when this 11
enemy arrives, may embarrass you
as debt never embarrassed you before
The best war to get out of
debt or to avoid embarrassment is ^
In lav the above foundations for eco- ^
nomic farming, resulting in strong n
credit, even tho you should never
sec a weevil.
"To be forewarned Is to be fore- *
armed." if we put such knowledge
Into limmediate action--"Prepared- a
ness" Is the watch word for the *'
next four or five years if we are to ''
win in this hatte. 81

Smut is annually responsible for
envy losses to our oat crop, and the
ity of tt is that these losses are al- '
lost wholly preventable The
allowing, known as the formalin
reatment, is a very simple, cheap,
nd effective remedy against smut.
"For each three gallons of water

icks of grain or by thoroughly
urinkllng the seed while it Is being

1 a pile for at least two hours, covring
It meantime with a sheet, or
n old carpet, which has been dipped
i this liquid. The purpose in thus
Dvering the pile is to enable the
apors formed by the evaporation of
le formallln to completely envelope

them and do not let them come
