AS TO MEXICO A writer in the World Outlook who claims to be well posted upon Mexican affairs, says the people of that country are tired of war. From the way they keep fiurhtinir, and as they have been fipjhtinjr amonjr themselves for years, it would seem that instead of beinj; tired of liprhtinj; they enjoy it. Indeed, this writer says if the Uni ..-I C?4.I 1 I - Ai . A ' A ivu oioivs Milium attempt co inter-1 fere in the affairs of Mexico this) country would have a tijrht en \ hands. The writer adds: I \ "Iler people are urnorant. Hell ? need is ed jcation, in moralsS?^^ course, as well as the mind. They**.^ weak, superstitious and easy to^ duped." \' ' 1 This writer contradicts his oWPi contention by urjfinvr the Uniif ; i States to help educate the MexicaiVf-| He says: \ J " We could promote ayrieultutaiy schools and normal schools and techi-T nival schools. We could endow scholarships for poor boys and nirls in existing normal schools. Teachers, preachers, leaders of every kind. That is Mexico's need." Of course it is Mexico's need yet how are we to promote agricultural schools or any other schools, to establish them and that would jrive them a cause of war; they would tell us to mind our business. The Mexicans are a shiftless, lazy lot. Several years a^o Pheasant A. Storall, our recent minister to Switzerland, visited Mexico to see for himself what manner of country and of people Mexico and M \:ear:.; were. Upon his return Mr. Stovnli delivered a lecture upon Mexico and called it "The Land of M.mana." 1'he definition of this word, according to Webster is, "tomorrow, before long." The significance of this is that the Mexican is fond to "put o}f" any work that is required of him. \ nation noted for laziness and shiftlessness is in such a bad way that it must be regarded as hopeless. When the only activity of a whole people is only evidenced l>\ then li<ri!tiig qualities the situation must he hopeless. Despite all this tin- Mexicans have a country of ningniiicent resources, rich in minerals, oil- ami otia' .ling that with p .p. Mitrol and managemetn would make a garden spot of the land and bi n y fortunes to the people. In the meantime revolution-.- in Mexico go on with habitual n gulnrity. The last one resulting in the asssisination of l'res iieni Carran/.a, after he had fled to the .nouiitains for protection that lie cou! 1 not front the people he had governed. THEY LEARN SLOWLY President Wilson continue. to try to teach the Republicans in Confess lessons that they are loath to learn. In his message he attempt'<1 to show the respective ilutics of tin* two branches ol the jrovernment, the h e islative ami ti e executive. This extract from his veto message oujjht to make the matter plain to tie* mere, tyro in Congress: "The Congress and the executive should function within their respective spin res.

Scifert will be .specialist in Cotton Marketing for the Extension Department of Clemson College during the online; fiscal year, according to announcement just made from headquarters here. Mr. Scifert is not new to the work in this state but has had charge of the cotton grading work in Orangeburg County for the Extension Service and is well known in Orangeburg and neighboring counties for his efficient work. In ids larger work as Specialist in Cotton Marketing to which he is low being transferred he will have headquarters with the Extension Service at Clemson College and will have general supervision of all cotton grading work done in various counties. lie has already begun to take on some of his new duties. During the fiscal year now closing there have been official graders in -even counties, Orangeburg, Sumter, Darlington, Clarendon, Anderson, Greenwood and Laurens, and these graders have been of such great service to farmers in enabling them to know the class ami grade of cotton and thus secure its real value that many other counties are already making plans and raising fundr to have -ulic'al graders.

RIDING CULTIVATOR ON ROLLING LAND The two-horse riding cultivator is at its best where the land is level or gently rolling, of course, and the aire thing is true of any of the improved farm tools or machines. However, by securing the class of eultivator best fitted for use on hilly land, .?ne can get along with the two-horse ^ machine about as well as he can with o ingle cultivator where the fields are not u> steep as to make any crop save grass and clover unprofitable. Personally I think it little less than a j, crime to work, in row crops, land that is as steep as is much that I have oh -i ved being cultivated in the upper Piedmont and mountain sections. general u e 1 prefer the "wig- (' trie-tail" cultivator, but. for hillside 'l vov\ the pivot axle machine is pre- 81 f< . hie in my experience. With these the wheels are turned to climb " a tut!", and thus are the trunks kept a !n line- with the row. In turning at a the < of tlie fields always turn the ^ teem no the hill and drive about six '' or eight feet past the end of the row iti to lie worked. Then by turn- (' in.r the horses into the field a little and hue!:in;;, the cultivator will be ^ brought well back of the end and directly in line with the row. Of course, 1 I am assuming that the rows are 81 run with the contour of the hill, as under no condition should rows be run up and down hillsides. When ^ working hillsides I think it will be' w four. I be t to keep the dirt guards on the cultivator until the plants have attained a height of from six to ten inches A. L. French, in The Progres- > ive Fanner.
