Bat without disuptging the college or the university, 1 would say that first of all, we must give greater attention to the public schools. Jt is there that the far mer, the average man, geta his education. We can not make eur Southern farmers adopt Iowa methods so long as in the average Southern State, there are fire time* as many white farmers who can't read a farm paper or fertiliser formula, as there are in Iowa. We can not improve onr farming until we edweate onr farmers; we can not develop the South until we develop onr Southerners. Nor is it enough that we hate longer pnhlia school terms; we must hate better public schools. And we mnat make them train for life, for practical things. Teach the farm boy how cotton and corn and tobacco may be im proved by seed selection; how a plant feeds, and how soils are ex hausted; what elements aie found in common feedstuffs. and which make fat and which make ■nsde; which cows make money in the dairy, and which should be aalected for beef—and a thous and other things. Not only should the elements of agricult ure be a public school study in the rural districts, but there should be a revolution in the text-books for ocher studies. In jour spelling-book, for instance, where do you find such words as ■ttrogen, potash, protein, or even such common farm words as clevis, singletree, mattock, etc.? Made by city people for saty people, the books and teach- ■ag have not been adapted to the aaeds of the country children. We shall take a long step for ward when the farm boy has pro portionately fewer problems in arithmetic about foreign ex change and latitude and longitu- 4§ and the metric system of weights and measures, and more about h‘ w to calculate a feeding ration for cows or a fertilizer fas mula from certain quantities ef potash, phosphoric acid and nitrogen, and when he atndies proportionately leas about far away Australia and Kamchatka, aad more about the aoil that he walks over and plows in every day of hit life.—From an address by Clarence H- Poe, editor of the Progresaive Farmer and the Seatbera Farm Qaaette, before the Southern Oomercial Congress, Warikiagton, D. 0. PROSPERITY OF EVERY MAN DEPENDS UPON PROSPERITY OF THE AVERAGE MAN. I do not know whether cr not it has ever been worked ont as a principle of political economy, bat anyhow it is unquestionably true that wealth is by nature, not aristocratic, bu£ democratic. The poorer every other man is, the poorer yon art. The richer every other man is, the richer yon are. Every man whose earn ing power it below par, below par, below normal, it a burden on the community; he drags down the whole level of life, and every other man in the communi ty is poorer by reason of his presence, whether ha be white man, or negro, or what not. Yoor untrained, ineffeient man is not only a poverty-breeder for himself,' hot the contagion of it onraea every man in the commu nity that it guilty of leaving him nntrained. The law of change less justice decrees that yon mnat rise or fall, decline or prosper, with your neighbor. Yon will be richer for his weslth, poorer for his poverty. And so to-day every man who is tilling an acre of land in the South, so that it produces only half what intelligently directed labor would get out of it is s bur den on the community, is drag ging down the level of life for every other msn in the communi ty. Suppose you sre his fellow- citizen; then because of his in efficiency, his poverty, because of his failure to contribute to public funds and public move ments, you must have poorer roads, poorer schools, a meaner school house and court-house, a shabbier churcb, lower-priced lands; your teacher will be more poorly paid, your preacher's salary will b^ smaller, your news paper will have a smaller circu lation, your town will have a poorer market, your railroad smaller traffic, your merchant smaller trade, your bank smaller deposits, your manufacturer*, diminished patronage, and so on and so on.—From an address by Clarencto H.

Wab Sick Kidneys weaken the body through the oontinnal drainage of life-giving albumen from the blood into the urine, and the •ubetitntion of poisonous uric acid that goes broadcast through the system, sowing tho eeeds of disease. Loss of albumen causes weakness, languor, depression. Uric poisoning causes rheumatic pain, nervoosnees, nausea, cricks in the back, gravel and kidney stones. The proper treatment ia a kidney treatment, and the best remedy is Doan’s Kidney Fills. Great Walterboro cores prove it. D. B. Peonfoy, Walterboro, 8. 0., says: “Doan’s Kidney Fills have proven of the greatest benefit to me and 1 gladly recom mend them. 1 had a kidney and bladder weakness, having to arise often duting the night on account of the frequent parsages of the kidney secretions. I also was afflicted with dull, nagging backaches and mornings on aris ing would be very weak and lame. When 1 learned about Doan’s Kidney Fills, 1 obtained a box from the Walterboro Drug Co. They soon relieved the backache and rid me of the an noying kidney weakness.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New Y’ork, sole agents for the United States.
