His Leaving is Deeply Regretted at City Hall---Wright Will Be Deputy County Clerk. It became definitely known Wednesday night that John M. Wright, city treasurer, will leave the service of the city January 13, when the county officers-elect will take up the duties devolved upon the various county officers. Mr. Wright 14 to be deputy county clerk, under Mr. O. K. Swayze. The resignation of Mr. Wright from the city treasurer's office will be received against the wishes of the city officials. It is understood that politics has entered into the announcement that the city treasurer is to go. The Democratic contingent of the city commission is especially anxious that the treasurer not leave until after April, when the next city election takes place. That contingent includes Mayor Billard, and Commissioners H. P. Miller and E. B. Stotts. They are especially anxious that a change be not made yet, since, they declare, it would complicate matters politically just before the election. Commissioners Tandy and Done also have expressed their regret at Mr. Wright's leaving next month. No official announcement has been made yet of the time when the treasurer will leave the city hall. No successor has been chosen. It is probable, however, that some action will be taken soon. Mr. Wright has made an excellent officer in the capacity of city treasurer and the city officials will look far and wide to find another so competent, affable and thoroughly fitted for the position - Topeka Capital. THE BETTERMENT OF THE NEGRO. During the two hundred and fifty years of the Negroes' time in slavery and out of bondage they have made a most marvelous progress, but we are now at the point where we must lay aside the slavery question and leave it in the hands of an all-wise Providence. Our business men should win race patronage if we wish to bring the race together where it will grow strong and successful. We have got to encourage it, first by standing together as a race and cultivating that amount of faith in the race which will bring us closer together and will make us patronize its own enterprises, and when we patronize our own race then it will make that business as successful and useful as any enterprise conducted by any other race. We are facing a severe test. The time has come when we must not prove capacity to learn what other great men have done, but learn and do things of our own, new and different. The Negro race must work out its own merits, learn to turn every obstacle and difficulty of life to advantage. We must learn as others have learned—by experience. We must begin building our race from the bottom and not from the top. We must hew out our own path as a race. Our pathway must be up through soil, up through commerce, education and religion. We cannot, under any circumstances, build up our race at the top any more than building a house at the top and going down. We must get together, put our money to more benefit; invest it in something that will make money. It is high time that the Negro men and women must lay aside that prejudice against one another, and look forward to the help of the Almighty to build up the betterments of race pride and when we come to this conclusion I believe the time will come when the prejudice of color will not shut us from the shades in any of the fruitful opportunities or positions that a self-respecting people will desire—the door of hope will be open unto us. What I want to impress upon your minds is the importance of encouraging our race; learn to believe that there is not another race on earth to equal our race; get into business, educate the train power, and by the clap of the success is sure to follow. The Negro has religious temperament, but he can't wave his religion and morality into his daily life. We must struggle through an unfriendly world, and therefore perseverance and work must be our keynote. Let us work without ceasing along our line and by the kind hands of Providence of some guardian angel, the key of success will unlock the door of opportunity. SADIE E. WARFIELD. 918 Western Ave., N.

The department of agriculture receives from truckers and gardeners many requests in regard to the value of street sweepings as fertilizer. The collections from sweepings consist chiefly of animal manures, trash and small particles of gravel materials, and at the present time, when the use of power vehicles is so extensive, they also contain a percentage of oil matter. Experiments were made to test the effects of the sweepings on crops. Good stable manure was also used in order that a comparison might be made. In almost every case the sweepings proved to be beneficial. The effect of the stable manure, however, was much greater. It was thought that the oil contained in the sweepings might affect their fertilizing properties. In order to study this point the oil was extracted and the effect on plant growth was tested. In every case it proved harmful. The sweepings from which it had been extracted were not tested. In this case the growth was about equal to that caused by the stable mixture. In other words, street sweepings from which the oil has been extracted are practically equal to stable minute in fertilizing value. If some method could be discovered which by the oil could be economically extracted street sweepings, on account of their comparatively low cost, should constitute a valuable source of fertilizer in the trucker and farmer country gentleman.

A principle that rotates with a small port of its lower chamber is immersed in a reservoir or basin for the purpose of moistening the stone has a trinket to pick up the water and throw it in the direction in which the stone is turning.

As a general proposition it may be said that the sow that has pigs before she is a year old will disappoint her owner. Norgham is an excellent succulent feed for cows, horses, sheep and bogs. When fed green it saves more expensive feeds and keeps stock in fair flesh until other feeds can be gathered. The safest bull the dairy man can use is generally a cross bull. At first this may seem a strange assertion. The reason, however, is simple. The bull that is known to be cross will always be watched. Do not give fresh cows, immediately after ciding, heavy feed, give mild or warm water and a small amount of light feed such as bran, that will be cooling to the system and will keep the bowls base. Calves at the age of three or four months will consume some silage if it is taken to pick out the leaves portions for them. It does not take them long after this before they will consume some consider the quantity of silage. The sheep is just as efficient in mature spriety as he is a manure maker. On hillsides where contour and waste would hardly stick long enough to do the ground any good sheep droppings take the place of a specially prepared fertilizer. Farm and Garden Proper Feeding Is the Big Factor in Causing Growth, Young bears that are to be sold for breeding purposes need extra care The buying public asks for males that are larger than their own pigs and that are in good flesh and planning to look upon Feeding is of course the big factor in succeeding growth. Because the pigs are to be sold for more than regular market price a little more expensive feed may be used if it will secure A Photograph by Laws State College of Arkansas HANDY LIFE OF INDIVIDUAL BOG HOUSE better gains. The youngsters need an abundant supply of nutritious green feel. This keeps them healthy, gives them an appetite and causes them to take exercise. Clever and alfalfa are the most satisfactory, of course, but anything that is green and succulent will do. Skimmilk is very nearly an ideal feed for growing plants. There is nothing that is liked better, and it seems to make a growth of frame and muscle as no other feeds will do. Any hog man who can have an abundant supply of skimmilk is fortunate indeed. A thick shop made of milled shorts and a little chilled does very nearly as well. Corn or corn and cooked barley are very acceptable for the basal part of the tution it being always essential to furnish plenty of protein to bathe on the back of it in corn and buryy bankings and meat meal in the proportion of about one part to ten of corn or corn and batley will make up the deficiency nicely and will bring more rapid growth and more finish to the pigs. Very satisfactory food must be selected from the crops of any locality it being necessary to bathe it up with some protein content or quality. Of course the pigs will sell better if they are clean in they will sell the best as well if they have a clean, clean place as if they have a clean, clean and it makes a vast amount of difference in getting to have them clean and seek - Nation of Stockholm and Finland --- Anaparous Seeds. An excellent plan to follow with asparagus is to visit the fields in the fall of the ground soil when seed should be selected from plants of a few large stalks rather than many small ones. The seeds are ripe when the berries are well colored. After picking, the berries should be placed in any convenient tub, barrel or crook and allowed to soak until the path separates readily from the seed. This separation may be secured in wash ing with the banda. The seeds should be washed several times and then cured and stored Professor H. L.

Edton Torcha Plaindealer: Please allow space in your paper to publish the following: We have a prominent church here and a good, right young man for our pastor, in the person of Rev. C. R. Brustel. He is also a pastor and moderator of the St. Paul District Association of Oklahoma. He has built up our church here morally, intellectually, spiritually and financially. He sees to it that the church helps the poor and orphans and has plans when carried out always leaves money in the treasury. He has organized the whole church into working clubs and everything is working nicely. We have a special treasure to help our District and State work. It also contains a neat sum and continues to grow, and no one is hurt or strained to keep it up. Our pastor loves the great Christian cause and he has done more for the Bethleham Baptist church than any leader we have ever had. He is a clean gospel preacher. Yours for Christ. A, REPORTER. WEIR.

The seven prisoners who received the reward of their ways on the 16th from District Judge Flannery and changed their boarding places from Montgomery County jail to Lansing penitentiary can bear witness to this expression. Mr. and Mrs. Levi Hult of Cheerry-vale, Kansas, were business callers in the city today. They also called at the A. M. H. parsonage while in town. Rev.

He will return Wednesday and begin a revival at New Hope Baptist church. Inspite of all the work being carried on against Jim Crowism seems like our people, especially the young pleasure seekers of our race, will not stand for a square deal. There are some people who enjoy being crammed in one corner of a Jim Crow moving picture show. What we need is race pride. Demand the same as other races and be contented with nothing less and by doing this it will be a coal of fire on your oppressor's head. Though weak, stand together for race elevation.
