Standards of .Living....
— r
There ha$ come.' a remarkable
growth of sentiment thatjevery
man must work, whether he rs
al>le tf) loaf or not. There is no
<#•*
place in the world today for an
idler. Too much is required ’i>T
ps to allow any mouths to he
fed or backs tQv.be clothed who
will not do their part toward
helping the rest of the world.
Some of our colpred friends
hid fair to he in the pathway, of
this spirit of universal service:
The new - provisions of govern
ment to provide support foi tin*
dependents ofsol liers lias given
to many colored peujde more
ready money than ever jhey had
lie foie. From every side comes
the complaint that 'too/ many
former hands are sitting around
doing nothing, ijphile work of
every kind is Clamoring for
labor. Some of those colored
people, in bliss fill ignorance of
the real conditions with which
the country is faced are using
the ArmV allotments to live in
absolute idleness. Their stand
aid of living requires a smaller
amount of money than is~ need
cd for their white neighbors. The
question is mot whether any
class of people have sufficient
money to live; in idleness, but
there are too many mouths in
the worldYo be fed to allow,any
hands to be idle.
The question has received
marked concern elsewhere than
oi^* sotTtliern farm communities.
The laws against Vagrancy on
the books arc seen to be defec-
—i
It has not beem so many years
ago since wages were consider,
ablj low’s r than they are today.
In fact in tiie years just after the
civil war it was nothing micom-
mon for a healthy, boy to receive
as a year’s wages, his hoard and
clothes, and perhaps the addi
tion of a paltry sum of fifty dol
lars. Now a section hand on the
railroad will receive more
than, tlie'skilh'd mechanic of a
few years ago. Many a negro
laboror is seriously asking him
self the question, “VVliat can.a
man do with $15 a week?’’ His
father who worked longer hours
felt himself fortunate to receive
far less than this.
We have raised our standard
of wealth for the individual, but
have we raised other standards
proportionately? Do we live
longer and have less, illness in
our families than our fathers
did? Their simple outdoor
lives gave them a. physical
vigor that we "have Lever
known. We have probably
lowered the standard of
health they enjoyed. We live
more in a week than they lived
in a year. They neverdreamed
of the luxuries and conveniences
we enjoy. But. they were just
as happy as we are and proba
bly more so. They enjoyed what'
addition of requirements some
what on the lines of passes in
siavehpldihg days. Then any
negro caught away from home
without written permission of
his owner was persumed to be
away on unlawful purposes
and watf arrested at once. Under
the new vagrancy laws as enac
ted in some states every persou
over fifteen years is given a
card to he filled out by his em
ployer. This euijd must show for
bach week the time worked, the
name of the employer, and the
rate of wages received. Any per-
sort without a eaVd, ,or without
proper entries on the card is
presumed to be violating the law
and is forthwith arrested. The
measure of punishment for the
first offence is either a fine or
hnpr sonlnent. In the succeed
ing convictions there is no alter
native of a fine, but simply tlu*
chain gang. -

A’eiy many of the most active
and intelligent ph-yslcans of the
state have volunteered for war
service and there is evidence
that ip some section^ of the state
tlrere are now too few left to
properly look after the. health of

a,t an early date which will
mAke the, situation very much

APPEAL TO PLANTERS
The agricultural department'
of the Citizens' Bank appeals
to planters, to save corn by
using carbon bisulphide;. Thou*-
sands of busliels of corn are lost
every year by \yt‘evil, according
to a statement issued by the
hank's agricultural de* artmtmt,
\y!iich gives the following direc-
tions/fpr dealing \vith weejt t] in
stored grain.
“Carbon bisulphide., common-'
Lv vailed “High Fife' i> th<>
-tamlard retnedy lor all forms
with an open’top may he used
if—Hr e Trnd _J hbttom “ a re
tight by placing blankets or can
vas tigthly over the top of the
grain. It is waste of time and
material to try to fumigate in
an open crib. _—
“When to Fumigate ^Select
a warm dav. Never fumigate
when the temperature is below
GO degrees Fahrenheit. On
warm days the insects are active
iand are more readily killed by
the gas. On cold days they are
inactive, breathe but little, and
gas is not likely to be effective,
“Amount to Use.—For every
1,000 cubic feet,of space use at
least three pounds tor about three
pints) of carbon bisulphide. If
x the room is not air tight a much
larger amount may be necessary.
There is no danger of using too
mucm/For a tight barrel, about
two ounces tor a small cupful)/>f
carbon bisulphide will generally
give good results, if a blanket is
placed securely over the top.
“How to Use.—Carbon bisul
phide may be poured directly
upomthe grain or seed without
injuring it for planting or feed-
ing purpose, ^Sometimes shal
low pans or other vessel^c iHe
placed ou_iop of -the grain apd
the carbon bisulphide is poured*,
into these vessels.
“C’ost. — Carbon bisulphide
can usually be purchased in
(plantities of fifty pounds or
more for about ten ^-ents a‘
pound. It retails in small cans
about 3(1 cents a pound. It ^iii
pav niost fa^incrs to purchase itl
in fifty pound iron drums''
