His subject was "A Noble Purpose." The effort of the speaker was an able one, and he pointed out the highest ideals of life to the young and pictured to them the beauty of sacrifice. Prof. Jackson, of Roger Williams, and Rev. T. L. Ballou, pastor of Spruce Street Baptist Church, assisted in the devotional exercises.

COLORED CUMBERLAND PRESBY TERIAN ASSEMBLY COM- MERCIAL The 39th annual session of the General Assembly of Colored Cumberland Presbyterians and the Sixth National Sunday-School Convention closed their sessions at the Hamilton Street Presbyterian Church Monday and adjourned after a very satisfactory meeting. The Sunday meeting at St. Paul A. M. E. Church and at the seat of the meeting were well attended. At the Hamilton Street Church one child was baptized and a special quartet rendered excellent music for the occasion. Monday several prominent men made addresses, among them were Dr. J. D. Fowler and Mr. H. Cole. The assembly adopted a set of resolutions in which they expressed their gratitude for the splendid liberality in space in the Nashville Globe, for the hospitality of citizens of Nashville and to the pastors of the churches who welcomed the ministers and delegates into their pulpits. The assembly elected the following officers: Rev. E. J. Simpson, Providence, Ky., moderator; Rev. James Edwards, Huntingdon, Tenn., Stated Clerk; Rev. J. M. W.

Ellington Principal Speaker—The "Ideal Neighborhood" Crux of the Address—Compares Gypsy Nobody Can Make Anything of Him—Urged Home-Buying—Clean Up Day Yesterday. The regular monthly meeting of the North End Neighborhood Union was held Monday night at the Pleasant Green Baptist Church. The principle speaker of the evening was Rev. Ellington, pastor of the First Baptist Church. He spoke especially of the work of the Union. Among other things he said the North End Negro Union is striving to make an ideal neighborhood of this community, because it realizes that it is the place of our home. We feel that every one should be urged to have a home of his own. We should leave the vicinity that speculators have built for us and go into good homes where we can live in comfort and ease. Continuing he said, God and nonody else can do much with a Gypsy people, because they do not stay in one place long enough; they are always on the go. In this Neighborhood Union we are encouraging the people to settle down in homes of their own and to feel that they are a part of the community where they live. It is hard to get a man interested in a place that does not belong to him. Home ownership brings interest in the city. The speaker made a strong plea for a united effort on the part of the citizens to make the community the very best that it possibly could be, and he emphasized that the only way that such can be hoped for is for the people to buy property, as they will realize after they get property that they are a part and parcel of the great city of Nashville, and will strive to do their duty as such. A special feature of the meeting was the announcement of plans by the president, Mr. S. H. Johnson, and the arrangement for the special Clean Up Day which was observed yesterday. The committee on street sewerage sanitation reported that they would make arrangements to have city carts in the neighborhood on that day to carry off the rubbish and garbage. Thursday was a great day in the community and the results of the Clean Up Day are visible. They also endorsed the action of the Negro Board of Trade in their effort to extend the car line to the State Normal. The next meeting is set for June 16, when it is hoped to have a general attendance of the people of the community at a place designated by the executive committee. THE 97TH SESSION OF THE PHIL ADELPHIA CONFERENCE OF THE A. M. E. CHURCH, HELD IN WILMINGTON, DEL., AT BETHEL CHURCH. The Philadelphia Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church held its 97th session last week at Bethel Church, with Bishop Evans Tyre presiding and a large number of members in attendance. A cordial welcome was given to the visitors, who are assigned to the homes of members of the local church and other interested. Rev. W. H. Hoxter is pastor of the church, and Rev. George E. Bivans is presiding elder of this district. That the Methodist ministry is not place for the man who is not willing to work hard and to burn the midnight oil was asserted by Bishop Tyre at the opening of the conference. "Some of you," the Bishop said, "may not be able to go to college, but you can burn the midnight oil. The ministry is the place for men who are imbued with the idea of work. Itinerary of the ministry means hard work. Some complain that they have small charges in the country, but the man holding the big charge many times would like to give it up. I have felt sometimes that I would like to hand over the duttes of the bishopric to others, not because I did not appreciate the duties reposed in me by my brethren, but because of weighty problems. Let peace, hard work and consecrated service be your guiding principles." Rev. R. J. Williams preached the opening sermon. He urged the cultivation of peace in church, social and temporal affairs. The conference elected the following officers: Revs, I. H. Ringgold chief secretary; R. F. Wright, W. J. Johnson, Charles V. Monk, assistant secretaries, and J. M. Palmer, steno grapher. WOMAN HELD ON LARCENF CHARGE. Emma Brown, aged 28 years, wanted by the Coffee County authorities on a charge of grand larceny, is at police station awaiting the arrival of NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY MAY 23, 1913. SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT FISK UNIVERSITY HAS ANNOUNCED COURSE FOR NEXT YEAR Studies in Negro Hitsory and Negro Problem Included—Seniors to Do Field Work—Course in Economics for Juniors—American Democracy in Relation to Slavery—To Create Active Center. Announcement has just been made of the Social Science Courses to be offered next year at Fisk University and of the plan of the University to co-operate with the Woman's Council of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the Methodist Training School, in developing a social settlement in one of the Negro neighborhoods of the city of Nashville. The department offers an introductory course in Economics in the junior year for three hours per week and an advanced course in Economics in the senior year, two hours per week. In Sociology, three hours per week will be given to class work and four hours per week will be given to class work and four hours per week of fields investigation and practical work. One of the most interesting features of the department for next year consists of a course in Negro History for the juniors and a course on the Negro Problem for the seniors. The history course traces the growth of American democracy in its relation to slavery and the Negro American. It aims to give the students a historical background for his thinking about present day conditions. The course on the Negro Problem is offered to members of the senior class and is a careful study of present conditions in both the country and the city. In this course, use is made of all available material on the subject and in addition to the general class-work, each student is given some particular topic relating to the economic, educational, social or religious conditions among Negroes for special investigation and report. The course aims to teach the student how to study conditions among Negroes in an accurate way and with a broad humanitarian point of view. A new impetus has been given to the work of this department by a recent agreement between the University, the Methodist Training School and the Women's Council of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, to co-operate in conducting a social settlement in one of the Negro neighborhoods of the city. Dr. George E. Haynes, Professor of Social Science at Fisk, says that this arrangement is going to give a great outlet for the intense interest of the students in the conditions among the people of the city and will offer them an opportunity to get acquainted with the people and to learn by practice what college education can do to help the people. He says it will also be a great help in articulating the University with the pulsating life of the city of Nashville, as it has always been the intention of the University to be an active centre of benefit to the city of Nashville and its Negro citizens. PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLIES URGED TO CONSIDER THE NEEDS OF NEGROES. Atlanta, Ga. May 20—In all three assemblies, however, recommendations urging upon all Presbyterian churches to make a special study of the Negro problem were made by a committee from the council of federated churches in America. The development of educational work among the Negroes, practical plans for their evangelization, and the attempted solution of the Negro religious problems are the things urged upon Presbyterians. It is evident among the visiting ministers and laymen that the opportunity of close study of the Negro afforded during the sessions of the present assemblies in Atlanta has done much to crystallize sentiment for the more vigorous advancement of Negro education and religion.

The train will be made up of sleepers and day coaches and will be run as a special.

HENRY ALLEN BOYD, Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress and Marshal of the Congress Special. estration will l oe made that will be long remembered in this city. The forces will be led to the Union Station by the National Baptist Brass Band, where they will be given a rousing send-off by the citizens of the c.a.y. This Congress is recognized as one of the greatest forces in this country for the training of young people in Christian service. FOOT WASHING IN SOUTH NASH VILLE. The Pleasant Valley Primitive Baptist. Church had their baptising and foot washing last Sunday. A large and appreciative congregation was present and gave their best attention to Rev. Luke Mason and Rev. Wm. Wilson who preached for them. The interurban Railway sent notice to Rev. Wm. Wilson Monday night that the cars will be lined up on Eroad street to accommodate those who will go to Franklin Sunday. Rev. Wm. Wilson will preach at Franklin Sunday. Rev. Wm. Wilson has had the largest portion of the lumber hauled to build a new church in Edge Hill. The people generally are interested in this church and will respond liberally Sunday toward its erection. WHERE WILL THE HABITATORS OF BLACK BOTTOM GO?-NEGRO LIBRARY THREADED. This question is engaging the minds of the people of Northwest Nashville. One gentleman who has made an extensive study of this subject said recently that it was his opinion that as Black Bottom is converted into business houses the element from that section would settle on Twelfth avenue, between Jo Johnston avenue and Church street. This would throw a great number of that "tough" element around the site selected for the Negro Library. This fact is causing considerable alarm, as it is known that a very tough element already inhabits close around that spot, and since the viaduct is to be extended it is believed that the settlement will grow worse. Black Bottom must go, and the element must go somewhere. They will naturally seek hiding somewhere, and this section is inviting. PHILANTHROPY. Philanthropy is a very high-class method of putting it back. When a man gives a dime away, that's charity. When he gives $10, that is generosity. But when he gives a million away, that is philanthropy. Philanthropy has filled the country with orphan asylums, old people's homes, hospitals and missions. And in getting together the money with which to build these things some of the philanthropists have made enough orphans to fill the asylums, enough poor old people to crowd the homes and enough cripples to congest the hospitals. NAT'L BAP- TIST SEMINARY ACTION OF SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION AT ST. LOUIS Report of Location in Daily Papers Premature—Matter Not Settled Yet—Educational Board Will Meet on 29th—Expected Matter Will Be Settled Then—Several Cities Bidding. Special to the Globe. Memphis, Tenn., May 19.—When it was published in the daily papers that the National Baptist Theological Seminary would be located in Lousville, Ky., a deal of commotion was caused hereabouts. The Southern white Baptists at their meeting at St. Louis took definite action on this matter and voted a subscription annually to the education of the Negro Baptist preachers. The fact that this action was taken carried with it the speculation as to its location. Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, secretary of the Educational Department, was approached by a representative of the Globe and asked if it was a fact that the Seminary would be located in Lousville. He said that it was not, and that the announcement was premature. He said several cities were bidding for the Seminary, but that no definite action would be taken until the 29th of this month, when the Board meets in this city. It is expected then that some definite action will be taken. It is known that Nashville, and especially the Baptists of that city are deeply interested in this matter. If it was thought for a time that this Seminary would be built on the campus with Roger Williams University, but other cities are making strong bids for it. It is believed by those in a position to have some judgment as to the best thing to do in this matter that the interests of the denomination will be first and foremost at all times. Great stress is laid upon the need of a theological seminary to train the young ministers of the Baptist denomination and the matter of location will play no significant part in a final settlement of a permanent home for the institution. MR. SAUDERS, SECRETARF Y. M. C. A. BETURNS The open air meeting conducted in West Nashville last Sunday afternoon by Wm. Crawford was well attended. The speakers Profs. Keith and Green brought the men a genuine message. The Y. M. C. A. base ball team played the game. Beaten, yes, but not so bad. Saturday, May 24th, they play again. They say, they played a clean game. This is one of the qualities that characterizes a well managed team. Mr. Crawford and Mr. Richie can be counted upon when it comes to doing things. The secretary left May 14th for the International Convention, which was held in Cinchnati May 15-18, and returned Monday, May 19th. He reports that it was both inspiring and instructive. Saturday afternoon the third day of the Convention 1208 delegates had registered from all parts of the North American Continent and from foreign fields. Ira Landrith of Nashville was elected president of the Convention. There was probably no association representatives there present that played a more conspicuous part than did those from the Capital of the Volunteer State. There will be a big mass meeting June 8, in the Majestic Thearte. The secretary will make a report at this meeting. An elaborate program is being planned for this date. Begin now, to talk it up. Sunday afternoon 4 o'clock in the Majestic will be held the regular men's meeting to which a large number of young men are earnestly requested to be present. Did you see the cuts of the Bible Study Group and the Shop Meeting group that appeared in the Globe last week? A fine looking bunch of men, but they are finer than they look, the Bible Study Group. Remembr the membership meeting to be held next Wednesday night at 8 o'clock in Y. M. C. A. room, Python Temple. Business of grave importance. Be sure that you are there in time. Brief session. THROWN FROM WAGON, BUT NOT BADLY HURT. Mr. Russell Arbuckle, aged 24 years, was taken to the City Hospital Wednesday morning suffering from several painful bruises sustained when a team which he was driving got to going to fast down grade on Broadway near Fifth avenue, and Arbuckle was throw n from his seat and the wagon ran over him. REV. JONES AT GAY STREET WEDNESDAY NIGHT Wednesday night at 8 o'clock Rev. Thomas L. Jones, of Pensacola, Fla., preached at the Gay Street Christian Church. He was a former well-known citizen of this place, who taught in TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No.21. THEY ARE OFF IN A RUSH THEY ARE OFF IN A RUSH CAPITAL CITY LEAGUE TEAMS START BALL ROLLING Horsehide Pelted in All Parts of City—Six Teams Play on Opening Day Before Good Crowds—Midweek Game Played Wednesday—Southern Stars Beat Baptist Hill Swift—New Players Signed. Saturday was the beginning of the Capital City Baseball League. Six clubs played and the speculations of the wise ones were upset in every instance, with probably one exception. That was the Y. M. C. A. and A. M. E. Sunday-School Union. The Y. M. C. A.'s had not been organized a week and were not expected to win, but with the other teams it was just the opposite. Those that were calculated to be weak developed unusual strength and put it over on the strong teams. Big crowds were at each game and the enthusiasm ran high. There was a deal of wrangling, but every contention was settled satisfactorily. The umpires were a little off in some instances, but this was to be expected at that stage of the game. Athletics 6, Black Sox. 3. A great game was played in North Nashville between the Black Sox and Athletics of the Capital City League. The game was fast and snappy and each pitcher was at his best. The Sox were too confident of downing the Athletics and to their surprise Mr. Morman found his team up against a tough proposition. Harris, who pitched for the visitors, kept the Sox hitting aggregation at ease. Brooks pitched fine ball but Harris had a shade the best of it.

EX-CONGRESSMAN MURRAY SPEAKS ON RACE IDEALS The large auditorium of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Cedar street, was filled Monday night to hear the lecture of ex-Congressman George W. Murray, of South Carolina, on "Race Ideals." It was one of the best addresses heard in Nashville on the race question. He considered three phases of the question—the effects, cause and remedy of race troubles. Speaking of the race's ideal man, he said: "Each race's ideal man is in itself—it paints pictures or models man in the physical likeness of its own members, and having no higher conception of the forms or God and angels in their physical likeness. "Among all races and tribes, except the American, the ideal man or woman is the one who comes nearest representing the purity and nobility of their race." Hon. Murray has filled several engagements this week, and on each occasion a good audience greeted him. WAS LOST BEFORE CHRISTIAN ERA.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1913. The Vacation Season. Nashville is now in the midst of her annual school commencements and in a few weeks the army of young people who have been engaged here in constant study for several months will be set at liberty for the summer's vacation. Some have planned what they will do; many are wondering how they can best spend the time the most profitably. This is always the anxious season for parents, especially those who are not in a position to give employment for their children during vacation. It is not always convenient for a business concern to provide employment for the young people during vacation. The limited number of business enterprises among Negroes adds to the embarrassment in this case. By earnest, conscientious efforts, however, and unselfishness, it is possible to do a great deal in this line despite the fact that the facilities of the race are meager. Non-Partisan Primary. The next primary election to be held in Nashville will be in accordance with the form of government under which Nashville is to live in the future. In this primary, all the voters of the city will participate. It is neither Democratic, Republican, nor Socialist, but a primary of all the citizens of Nashville. Every man who is of voting age has been given the right to exercise the voting franchise and has the right to vote in this primary. This is what is understood by the Commission Form of Government. There will be only one Primary, and every man who understands the new form of government fully should see to it that his neighbor understands it also. This is not meant to imply that the neighbor does not, but we would impress this idea that it would be wise for the men to talk about the new form of government; get formally acquainted with its workings in advance, for if we understand its requirements, we will have no trouble in measuring up to the same. Plea for Harmony. There never was a time in the history of Nashville when there was a greater demand for harmony among the men than exists among the Negroes of Nashville now. It is agreed that Nashville offers opportunity, not only to the new comer, but to those who have been here many years; but the most of these opportunities will be blasted unless the men get together and do at once. Entirely too much bickering, too much selfishness, too much individualism attained to the affairs that pertain to the public. If one man has a personal grievance against another, he should not allow that personal affair to influence him, when an act that wrongs the whole people is about to be performed, or when the interest of the whole people is concerned. There are great questions coming up from day to day that need the earnest consideration of our strongest men, but so long as selfishness predominates, the people will suffer. There should be harmony, the factions should join in a united effort to make this city a better place of abode for all the people. MURFREESBORO NOTES. The marriage of Miss Annie M. Prim and Mr. John Quarles was solemnized Wednesday morning, May 14th at the home of the bride's mothrents, Mr. and Mrs. Knox Prim. 502 W. Main street.

The ceremony took place beneath an arch of snowballs and dogwood blossoms. The bride was very pretty in a white embroidered voile over satin; her bouquet was of white roses. The attendants were Mr. Charlie Childress and Miss Matilda Bates and little Miss Lula Smith as flower girl. Following the ceremony delicious refreshments were served.

This Assembly had the co-operation of all the leading people of Nashville, therefore the good people of Nashville will never be forgotten by the C. P. General Assembly for their kind hospitality. Mr. D. A. Hart made two very interesting talks in our Assembly which were enjoyed by all. He should have much credit for the good and faithful work he is accomplishing. His real worth for humanity cannot be estimated. J. H. Hurt was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Will Daniels while in the city. This family always makes it pleasant for visiting friends.

HART, Manager and Editor --- Calcuty. This was a very pleasant surprise to all, but the more enjoyable to us. The Southern Christian Institute was reached and the great things we saw were much beyond our expectation. One thousand and three hundred acres of beautiful farm land, the most of which was planted in crops of corn, wheat, oats, cotton, fruits and gardens, with hundreds of students behind the implements of cultivation. Nature has given this farm the air of the Hudson River or Southern California, beautiful for situation and covered with trees, shurberbery and wild flowers in great magnitude. The scenery is most picturesque and at once charms the lover of nature. The students are an exceptionally fine set of young men and women, thoroughly disciplined and drilled in the best manner. Their earnestness, both in their studies and labors, at once attracts the most skeptic person. The closing exercise would compare favorably with that of any institution of the kind. They have students from Africa, Jamaica and nearly every state in the Union. The faculty is a stalwart set of teachers. Every inch of the ground is covered by them for the advancement of the students and the students are loyal to their teachers. It seems more like a Miss Lauraura Mary L. Perry, Messrs. Wilson and Henry Ferguson. Lizzie Banks is taking the Globe and likes it fine. Little Miss Eureka Frierson last week visiting her brother, Mr. Rufus Frierson, of Patterson street. Mrs. Bettie Frierson is in Nashville this week. Mrs. Eda Drennon went to Nashville last week and spent a dap shopping.

The whole of the man or woman is educated, not the mind only, but the body as well. Farming, housekeeping and a scientific plan of type setting and printing, engineering, plumbing, carpentry, stone masonry, brick masonry and the vocation of an electrician are all taught here. Last year in the cannery they put up seven thousand quarts of fruit, besides a large amount of vegetables. The students dug the gravel and sand from the banks and made thousands of cement blocks and cut the logs from the woods, sawed the timber, dressed it in their planting mill and from the carpenter shop they manufactured the flooring, ceiling, windows, doors, etc. Now some of the best concrete buildings that can be found anywhere stand on the campus as monuments of industry and skill of these students. The architecture and construction of these buildings are faultless. This is a marvelous revolution in fifty years. More than two hundred slaves worked this farm and raised cotton for the market, but now over two hundred sons and daughters of the slaves have converted this farm into a paradise and from this institution they have sent their students to Africa, Jamalca, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas and throughout the country. erry, Jason, and Fri- ville Mr. Street.

Preston Taylor, who recently made a visit to Edwards, Miss. where he delivered five addresses at the Industrial School. In relating the trip to a Globe representative, Rev. Taylor said: THE SAN JOSE SCALE IN TEN NESSEE WITH METHODS FOR Paramount of all the insects causing loss to the horticulturists and nursery is a small scale insect no larger, when mature, than the head of a common pin. This insect is the San Jose scale (pronounced San Hozay), Aspidiotis perniciousus. No insect pest has received more attention and has had more written concerning it. Nearly every experiment station in the land has published one or more bulletins as to its life history and ravages, and remedies for its control. Newspapers, journals and magazines have issued volumes calling the attention of fruit growers to the effects of this scale pest and encouraging legislation for its control. Those who have heeded this admonition of the entomologists and followed their recommendations have satisfied themselves that in spite of the enormous damage done by this scale, there are methods which, if properly pursued, will reduce injury to the minimum. The careless, unheeding grower who has scale-infested stock and has done nothing by way of controlling the pest suffers heavy losses and eventually is compelled to go out of business (be he horticulturist or nurseryman) or is advised to start anew. The orchard and nursery interests in Tennessee are developing with rapid strides, and the heavy daily correspondence pertaining to San Jose scale and its remedies emphatically indicates a need for suggestions and information applicable to Tennessee conditions. History of Occurrence of San Jose Scale Through investigations of Prof. C. L. Marlatt during 1901-1902, acting for the U. S. Department of Agriculture, the native home of the San Jose scale was definitely located in Northern China, not far from Pekin. From existing conditions the indications are that San Jose scale has been present in China for a number of years. San Jose was first noticed in this country in 1870, in the San Jose Valley in California. In the town of San Jose, in 1873, it had increased sufficiently to be serious. Not until 1893 was the scale discovered east of the Rocky Mountains, when it was noticed at Charlottesville, Va. It is supposed to have reached Virginia from New Jersey, where it had been scattered by means of nursery stock shipped from the San Jose Valley in 1886 or 1887. The infested nurseries in New Jersey continued to shin nursery stock to all parts of the United States until investigations were made in 1893 and 1894. Thus many sections throughout the United States became infested, especially in nursery and orchard districts. The Occurrence in Tennessee. In Tennessee San Jose scale first made its appearance in the eastern part of the State, in Roane County, at Harriman, where it was brought in on nursery trees during 1891 or 1892, yet it was not discovered until 1896.* At this time many trees were found in a highly infested condition, Scale was found next in Clalborne County, near Cedar Fork, in 1897. The following year specimens were received by the Experiment Station from another section of the same county, at Tazewell. In less than a month afterward scale was found in Washington County, at Austin Springs. These scale insects were on trees that had been purchased four years previous from a New Jersey nursery. Habits and Life History. Perhaps the worst feature of an attack of San Jose scale is the difficulty of recognizing the insect, due to its size and color; it is about 1-16 of an inch in diameter when mature, and in color it resembles the bark of tree or plant infested. If there is a very bad infestation an ashy-gray appearance is noticeable; again one may determine the presence of scale by crushing many of them, when an oily appearance is noticed. If a female scale be carefully turned over with a knife or a pln, there will be found underneath a flat, yellowish insect, looking very much like a small piece of rich butter. It has no legs, no wings, no eyes, no antennae (feelers), nor a distinct head, but it does have a long, threadlike sucking proboscis, with which it bores through the bark of trees into the young, growing wood and draws out the sap. In April (earlier in advanced seasons) the adult female begins to give birth to living young, continuing to do so for about six weeks, after which she dies. The young scale has legs, antennae and eyes; it moves about over the twigs for some hours, then settles down and begins to push its mouth parts slowly into the bark to the sap beneath. A scale-like covering now begins to be formed, coming from all parts of the body and looking at first like waxy filaments or threads, which later fuse together, making, with the cast skins, an entire covering over the insect. All young San Jose scale look allike in size, color and shape until the first molt, about twelve days after birth, but from then on there is a very great difference. The male scale, which is smaller, is now elongate, when the female scale is circular, or nearly so, both sexes losing legs and antennae, and the female her eyes. In from 24 to 26 days from birth the male comes from under the scale in the form of a minute and extremely delicate two-winged, fly-like insect. It takes the female about thirty days to develop fully. From thirty-three to forty days from birth she gives birth to a new generation. Each female is supposed to produce 200 male and 200 female young; this being so, and counting four generations in a season, there will be produced, according to Dr. L. O. Howard, 3,216,080,400 male and female scales from one progenitor in a year.* In Tennessee, where there are at least five generations or broods each year, the above number is greatly increased. Thus it is easy to understand why a slight infestation if untreated, soon becomes bad. If the scale are allowed to increase unmolested they will kill a young bearing peach tree in about three years, and an apple tree in about four or five years. Consequently, when San Jose scale are first discovered in an orchard immediate preparations should be made for applying a remedy, the most satisfactory of which is the Bolled Lime-Sulphur Solution, if the tree is dormant.

COOPER DISCUSSES THE APPROACHING CITY ELEC TION. Hon. Noah W. Cooper in discussing the election to be held to elect officers for the first term of our commission form of government says the following. "There is still much uncertainty in the public mind about the next City election. A careful examination of the new City Charter shows— "1.—That the election for Mayor and two other Commissioners will be held Thursday, September 11th. "2.—If any candidate for Mayor or Commissioner gets a majority of all the votes cast on September 11th, he will be elected. He will have no more running to do. "3.—But if there are three or more candidates for the same office and no one of them gets a majority of the votes cast on September 11th, then the two candidates receiving the highest votes will run over in a run-off election on September 25th, and that will end it. 4.—There will be no democratic primary. The election on September 11th, is a regular election. It is not an ordinary primary election, voters in it must have registered and paid Poll Taxes. 5.—Every citizen, white or colored, of every party, can and should vote in the election September 11th. it is a non-partisan primary election; conducted by the State and County election officers, and not managed by any party managers. 6.—Those elected begin service October 14th. 7.—The new Charter disregards political parties. It is based on the idea that every citizen is a stockholder in the city, and that all citizens should vote for the best interest of the people regardless of political parties. "S.-Section 44 of the new Charter requires that all officers and employees of the City "Shall be elected or appointed with reference to their qualifications and service, and for the good of the public service, and without reference to their political faith or party affiliation." "9.-The police, fire, water-works and lighting departments are all put under Civil Service rules. No one can be elected to a place in these departments except he measures up to the qualifications required; and no one can be elected or dismissed except by the votes of three of the Board of five Commissioners. 10—Section 35, requires the police "To enforce every law of the State and Ordinance of the City, relating to the suppression of crime, or to the public health, or to disorderly persons. And the Mayor is supervisor of the police. To elect a Mayor or not in full sympathy with the enforcement of, 'Every law of the State and Ordinance of the City, would be to nullify the Charter."

SHYER'S JEWELRY STORE. 23S Fourth Ave., North THE HIGH COST OF LIVING. By Capt. T. F. Peck, Commissioner of During the past few years the talk about the high cost of living has increased in the cities and towns; in fact everywhere, that people have to buy what they live on. Many suggestions have been offered and practically all of them are far from the real cause. There is one thing certain, as long as consumption of farm products increases and production does not keep pace, we will have talk of the high cost of living. This country has passed through a period of great development in railroad building, in the growth of manufacturing, in the growth of cities and towns. All the influences have been exerted to draw the people from the country to the towns and cities. The laborers for work, the young men and young women for positions where they could wear nice clothes and have more social advantages. The farmer, where he could afford to do so, has left his farm to tenants and he has taken his family to town to give them educational advantages. The schools have directed the boys away, instead of to the farm. The result has been decreased production of the farms and consequent increase in cost of the necessaries of life. When we give more attention of improving our farm lands, using more intelligent methods of cultivation, when we give more attention to improving our public roads and our rural schools; when we are willing to make rural life conditions attractive to our boys and girls; when we prove to them the advantages they can have in farming over other lines of work; when we quit belittling the vocation of farming; when we make available to the farmer of today the information he needs for success in his work, we will find a solution to the problem of the high cost of living, and not before. We must bring about equilibrium; labor is not properly adjusted. The cities and towns are overcrowded with young men and young women seeking positions.] The supply exceeds the demand and as a consequence low wages prevail. Our real prosperity is based on the prosperity of the farmer and any other plan will exhaust itself in time. So this problem is one that should enlist the co-operation of the railroads, the manufacturers, the teachers, the professional men of all classes. Not that they should give up their present work whatever that may be, but in helping the farmer to qualify for successfully carrying on his work. All can lend their moral and financial support to movements to improve the rural schools, that will teach agriculture and domestic science, to better roads and to practical demonstration work with the farmers that will enable them to build up their souls, improve their methods of farming, improve their live stock and encourage them to a higher regard for their vocation as farmers. It has been said often and truthfully that all other professions and vocations grow out of the needs of faremr; but they have outdistanced the farmer; he has been drifting. He must be aroused and stimulated to take his proper place and develop his industry as others are doing. Prices on the necessities of life cannot be properly adjusted until there is a better adjustment of labor and our farm lands are cultivated with the intelligence that is given to other industries. When the farmer boy is shown that his best opportunity for success is on the farm; when he is given an insight of farming as it can be, and should be; he will not be hard to convince where his opportunity lies. He is not to blame for wanting to get away from a vocation that has been treated as the vocation of farming has been. Progressive cities and towns are ready to encourage industries to locate in their midst that will employ labor. Large pay rolls stimulate business, the business man regards money spent in that way a good investment. How about the farmer whose products are the basis for all prosperity? What has been done to encourage him to improve his land and increase production? Instead, has he not been regarded more as the easy victim to fleece? Has not the policy been to get his products at the lowest possible price and to sell him his supplies at the highest price? Has it not been the policy to concentrate in the cities and towns the best schools, sending the young inexperienced teachers to the country schools? Has not the public works lured the labor from the farm to town? What has been done in agricultural education in the past, has been over the heads of the majority of our farmers that need it most. I think all will admit that all the above is true. We have reached a point where a readjustment of conditions is absolutely necessary. Our first need is the products of the farmer and if prices continue to go up for food products and the laborer has to pay all his wages for food, what will be the effect on the railroads, the busi- ness man and the manufacturer? All have an interest in the successful solution of this problem and all can assist. We must help the farmer to get on his feet. He must build up his soil. He must use better methods in farming. He must be taken by easy stages, a step at a time. It is worse than useless to offer him something out of his reach. We can provide better rural schools. We can improve the public roads. We can assist in getting better live stock in the country. We can show the farmers the advantage to them in community specializing in live stock. We can emphasize the importance of the vocation of farming and educate the farmer boys and girls to the farm instead of away from it. We have unconsciously been trying to kill the goose that has been laying our golden eggs; let's take better care of the goose in the future. It would be folly to do otherwise. SPECIAL TRAIN TO MUSKOGEE. A special train of Sunday-school workers will leave Nashville over the N. C. and St. L. from the Union Station, June 3 at 12 o'clock and run through to Muskogee, Okla., without change. The above announcement was made and confirmed at Sunday-School Congress headquarters this week. Henry A. Boyd, secretary of the Congress, gave out an official statement as follows: "Nashville is the Mecca of Sunday-school work. There is no denying this fact. Sunday-school enthusiasm has run so high that this year we are compelled to run another special train for the accommodation and convenience of those who are going to attend the Congress in Muskogee. There will be over forty representatives from this city alone, and an equal number coming into the city from points in East Tennessee, New York, Washington, Virginia, Carolina, Georgia, Florida, North Alabama and other states. Three standard sleepers with a day coach and baggage car will constitute this train. Mr. J. F. Gaffney, City Passenger Agent N. C, and St. L.; Mr. Paul S. Weaver, D. P. A. of the Chicago Rock Island, and Mr. Chas. B. Gloat, A. G. P. A., Rock Island Railroad, were at Congress headquarters last week and closed arrangements for this special train. Nashville delegates desiring to leave on this train should get their tickets not later than early Tuesday morning so that reservation can be secured for them on this train. Those who live in points beyond Nashville desiring to join this special should arrive in Nashville not later than 10:50 Tuesday morning, June 3rd, at the train will leave promptly at 12 o'clock. Have your ticket routed over the following roads: Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis to Memphis, Chicago Rock Island and Pacific from Memphis to S. McAllister by way of Little Rock, Missouri, Kansas and Texas from South McAllister to Muskegon. The special train is due to reach Memphis at 7:45 p. m. Tuesday, June 3rd, at the Union Station, where they will be joined by the delegations from West Kentucky, West Tennessee, South Alabama and Mississippi. At least two coaches will be attached to the train at this point. The train leaves Memphis over the Chicago Rock Island at 9:15 Tuesday night, June 3, arriving at Little Rock early next mornning. There will be put little time spent in Little Rock, as the Little Rock delegates and those from North Louisiana will be waiting at this point in their special coach. The delegation will take breakfast at Booneville, Ark. The Assistant General Passenger Agent has already assured us that the dining-room will be reserved for us at that point and breakfast will be provided. The train will arrive at Muskogee at 12 o'clock and the delegation will be met by the Reception Committee and directed to the place of meeting. Already assignment cards have been sent out from Muskogee, giving stopping places and directions how to reach these places, to those who have notified the committee that they will attend." Workers in this city are notifying Secretary Boyd daily of those who will attend from the various Sunday-schools. The Sunday-School Union will be represented by two officials, Chairman T. J. Lewis and the secretary, Miss Florence Burnett. They will also represent their respective Sunday-schools. It is stated that the National Baptist Brass Band will accompany the delegation, dispensing music at the stopping places as well as at the Union Station, where a great crowd will gather to cheer the workers. NOTICE On the fourth Sunday in May, also the first Sunday in June, the Interurban cars will line up on Broad street to carry all who wish to take advantage of the low round trip rates to Franklin, Tenn., to the foot washing. CORRECTION In the Globe of last week it was stated that the elegant table decorations and the beautiful heart-shaped cake with its 82 candles was given to Mrs. Seay by Mrs. J. C. Crawley. This is an error. It was given by Mrs. Besle McCauley, of the First Baptist Church. Also Mrs. Seay wishes to thank Miss Martha Sea-wright, of the First Baptist Church, for the active part she took in assisting Mrs. Seay.

Simpson, who was a delegate to the Colored Cumberland Presbyterian Assembly held in this city last week. Rev. Simpson has indeed treated the subject in a unique way. The following lines will give a fair idea of the contents of the pamphlet: A concourse of domestic animals having assembled by call of the most influential, discussed their grievances and drafted resolutions as herein reported. A fine black horse named Prince being chosen as Moderator, opened the convention as follows: Respected friends and companions in tribulation: Following the example RAIN of our human lords, we have met to deliberate on the various phases of our wrongs, and to devise, if possible, some means of bettering our condition. We are compelled to convene at night, as most of us are wanted by day in the service of those beings who have never learned to regard us as creatures possessing feelings and sensibilities, or capable of friendship. During collothod, we were free and happy, and had no idea we belonged to any one but our mothers, and it was hard enough to be made aware that we are not our own at all, and must always be slaves to man, and be subject to his will, go when he says go, stand when he says stand, whether it suits our feelings or not; all this, I say, is bad enough, without being the victims of his ignorance and spite, in addition to the sad fact of losing our freedom. There are very few that can complain of every kind of abuse in one life—being scolded, sworn at, beat, kicked, jerked, lashed, starved, half-frozen a hundred times, over-loaded, over-driven, pinched with hunger, parched with thirst, and occasionally knocked down for some fault of early mismanagement, by which horses often acquire habits as hard to break up as human beings find their bad habits and tempers to be. But I think there are still fewer who can say they have never been victims of any of these—for men expect us to obey them far better than they ever think of obeying their Master, the Maker of us all. I don't know why it is so, but I believe it is because being men and able to talk, they feel themselves so far above the rest of God's creations that they think none of them have a bit of right to any consideration at their hands. Just enough care to make us good servants and useful to them. Selfish throughout. There are honorable exceptions, it is true, some kind hearts among the humans, and laws have been made to relieve some of our abuses, but these do not reach a tenth part of the cases of oppression. A Bergh, or his faithful deputy, on every farm, certainly one in every neighborhood, is needed, and he would have his hands full of business too. When some millions of black people were owned and ill-treated by whites, some escaped and found help to do so, but neither underground railroad nor friendly shelter would be furnished a "fugitive" horse, and if ever we find freedom from toll and abuse, the means are yet to be devised. May we not hope that by presenting our several grievances to the public some interest will be aroused that will lead to bettering of our condition in many respects? If we succeed, even in a limited degree, the future generations of horses "will rise up and call us blessed." I be pardon for taking up so much time in these preliminary remarks, and will now declare the meeting open for business. MRS. DISMUKES PURCHASES JEFF PERSON STREET PROPERTY Mrs. A. M. Dismukes, the laundress at Fisk University, has recently purchased the large brick residence at 1720 Jefferson street. The price paid was $3,000. Mrs. Dismukes when seen by a Globe representative was loath to tell of her purchase, but after a time she admitted that she had bought the property. She has been at the head of the laundry department at Fisk thirteen years, and has by close application brought that department from a losing to self-sustaining basis. Better wages are paid the help and in addition they are let off Friday at noon. Mrs. Dismukes is a graduate of the Alabama State Normal at Huntsville and Tuskegee. While not a graduate of Fisk, she has given $1,000 to the University since sae has been connected with it. PROF. KELLY IN THE CITY. Prof. J. H.

EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS Pennsylvania will have a Negro Company if Governor Tener signs the bill just passed by the House. There i a every reason to believe he will sign the document, despite the efforts of the Labor Organizations to defeat the measure in the House. The legislation puts Pennsylvania where it belongs, and gives the Negro a long-deserved recognition—Pittsburg Courier.
