An Ancient English King,
One interesting event of last week
in England, the commemoration of
the ono thousandth anniversary of
the death of King Alfred, weuld
no doubt have attracted more at-
tention in this country but for the
national mourning. Alfred is in
many respects the typical hero of
the English rape. Some portions of
his life are indeed obscure; hut
those that are known redound to his
credit. He was a statesman, a sol-
dier and a man of letters, and his
genius in each aspeet of his career
was balanced by sound sense. So
faj* as any one man could do so, he
made J£pg}&nd. To him may be
traced the beginning of English sea
power and the outlines of English
1#\ "He made his people one
against dangers without and dangers
within. He preserved the records ©f
their history. He helped to extend
the spiritual power of the chnreh.
When wc add to the sum of his
achievements the rectitude of his
character and the purity of his life
we have a picture of one of the
wprld's greatest men. It is well at
this time that those of English
blood everywhere should remember
him'with gratitude.
{AGRICULTURE IN THE SOUTH.
In the review of the testimony
takfh before the industrial com-
mission bearing on agriculture,
certain facts are adduced which
account for the causes of the de-
pression in agriculture. Among
these which in our mind is the
most important as it bears most
directly on the agricultural con-
ditions in the Sout,b, is the follow-
'■ v
Another cause which several wit-
nesses assigned for the unsatis-
factory condition of agriculture in
some parts of the country is the
conservatism of the farmers, their
lack of quickadjustment to changed
conditions and the lack of effective
business planning and manage-
ment. The farmers as a class
hare not kept up witn the times,
but have raised the same crops
year after year without regard to
changes in supply and demand.
This undue conservatism and lack
of managing ability among farmers
especially emphasized with refer-
ence to the southern states and is
given in explanation of the too
exclusive attention to cotton pro
duction prevailing there."
Though to admit the above state-
ment would be hurting our pride,
yet not to do so would be doing
violence to' our Conscience. No
observant man can fail to appre-
ciate the, causes that are in a very
great measure responsible for the
unsatisfactory conditions of agri-
culture. There are comparatively
few farmers tvho realize the fact
that to make farming a success de-
pends as much upon a knowledge
of business principles as it does
soil and climate. It is not enough
that the farmer knows how to pro-
duce a crop, but he must know
how to dispose of it to the best ad-
vantage after it is produced. This
involves the necessity that the
farmer should keep up with the
times and that h4&Uy appreciates
the law of supply and demand.
But unfortunately most farmers
cannot see this way, rather hold-
ing to the belief that when the
crop is produced his work is done,
and if he does not realize the high
prices that he expects for his pro-
duce is not his fault and is satis-
fied that it is due to the manipu-
lation of the speculator.
Our agricultural colleges have
done much in educating the far-
mer as regards production, but
they can do just as much in edu-
cating him with reference to the
business side of farming. Above
all the farmer must have a clear
conception of the law of supply
and demand. He must be taught
that his success or failure is depen-
dent upon governmental policy.
Business planning and manage-
ment are just as vitaly necessary
for successful farming as they are
for any other business. This fact
seems to be the most difficult to
be impressed upon the farmer,
and aries from the fact that be is
unable to appreciate the operations
of economic forces and the changes
which they have effected in all
phases of life. There was a time
when business consideration was
not essential for the farmer, but
that time was when farming was
carried on bv the slow process of
the ox and the wooden plow; when
the spinning wheel took the place
of the loom and spindle; when
transportation facilities were un-
known and distance a barrier to
the opening and development of
new markets,
But that time is no more. In
the evolution of the world's pro-
gress, agriculture could not escape
from being drawni into its vortex.
Tbe horse and the most modern
improvements are now taking the
place of the ox and tbe wooden
plow. Nay; even these no longer
satisfy the present exigencies. Tbe
world seems to be moving to fast
even for the horse, and in many
oases be is giving place to elec-
tricity. The tincje qf the house-
wife is now to muoh taken up
with other duties to give her at-
tention to the spinning wheel which
is now consigned to a permanent
resting place. Railroad, telegraph
and telephones have destroyed
distance and united all communi-
ties into one. Much less time is

consumed uow in transporting our
coirimodities from New York to
San Francisco than it did twenty-
five years ago across the state of
Texas, and still less time is now-
consumed in transporting anything
across the state than it required at
that time for a distance of a hun-
dred miles. Our products are no
longer confined to the markets at
home but find an outlet in the
markets of the world. Likewise
our wants and needd no longer
have to be dependent upon home
supplies, but can be satisfied from
other places, no matter what the
distance. It is these that compe-
tition enters as a vital element in
the business world and which the
farmer can under no circumstan-
ces evade, but which to meet be
must learn to be a business man
as well as a farmer.—A. in Texas

The Hungry Girl Student
The cashier of th6 Women's col-
lege of Baltimore furnishes a con-
vincing array of figures to sustain
the assertion that the average girl
student has a good appetite. The
amount of beef ordered for the year
is 21,000 pounds; of mutton, 8,500,
the Vame as last year; veal, 5,000
and pork, 6,500. Poultry will be
useu in greater abundance than ever,
the contract calling for 11,000
pounds, 500 more than was bought
last year. Three thousand pounds
of fish and 200 gallons of oysters
have been contracted for,'and 4,000
dozen eggs, 6,000 gallons of milk
and 8,000 pounds of butter will help
to make life worth living. Five
hundred bushels of potatoes and
300 cases of canned vegetables have
been ordered and fresh vegetables
will be bought daily as needed. One
hundred and twenty-five barrels of
flour will be required to make the
delicious rolls, muffins and waffles
served at the college homes and the
contract for lard goes up to 4,000
pounds. Fruits, jams, pickles are
all "put up" in the college homes,
the pantry shelves of which are piled
with jars of delicious-things the col-
lege housekeepers are skilled in the
are of preserving and the pantry of
Vingolf, Fensel or Glinter hall
would be a paradise for any small
boy in existence.

Ship Subsidies Unnecessary.
What may be done in the develop-:
ment of a prosperous shipping in-
dustry without the aid of payments
from public treasuries is imperative-
ly indicated in the history of the
upbilding of the two principal Ger-
man companies. These now lead the
world for actual ^carnage of ship-
ping afloat upon the seas. The
great German fleet is the outgimvth
of natural trade conditions. Uniil
1900 these companies did not receive
one mark in bonusus from the gov-
ernment, Sipce last year the two
have divided an imperial subsidy
for a fowiightly postal service to
Asia, but the sum received in the
first twelve months was only $130,-
000, which is said not to repay the
owners for the expense they jre put
to in carrying the mails free and
conforming to the other conditions
which the government exacts of
boats on this line.

we carry are the best that any
