Friends and Relatives of Pupils In other Cities are Able to Keep Up with Progress made in School. by Monthly. Publication—Pupils Work Hard to be Among First Six in their Class.
The January reports of the work of the pupils of the public schools of the city was issued Monday and in accordance with the plan of The Tribune inaugurated the first month of the school term the names of the six leading pupils in each grade are her published.
Interest in the publication each month of the highest pupils in each grade is very general throughout the city and both pupils and parents now look for it with much zeal. Many of the parents whose children are fortunate enough to be numbered amoung the first six send off copies of The Tribune containing the report to their friends in distant cities, that they may note the progress of their children.
That the publication of these monthly reports has proved quite an incentive to the children to make high marks, is the consensus of opinion among the teachers, and many of them are loud in their praises of The Tribune for the publicity given the efforts of the pupils. The following is the standing of the first six pupils for last month:

Odd Fellows Athens Club Holds Meeting
DR. B. W. S. DANIELS FOR GRAND MASTER.
Small Attendance Out—Several Speeches Made—Resoultions Adopted.
A mass meeting under the auspices of the Athens Club, Odd Fellows was held at Duffy Street hall on Sunday afternoon.
In the absence of the president, W. E. Searles, Dr. B. W. S. Daniels presided.
About seventy-four members of the order were present and several speeches were made.
The club, as is understood, was formed for the purpose of getting together and to endeavor to carry a strong delegation to the next Grand Lodge session which meets in Athens, Ga., next August, and it was with this point in view that some attended the meeting, and again to discuss the recent decision of the S. C. .M. relative to Georgia affairs. In this there was a little disappointment for instead, the principal speaker, Rev. J. S. Jenkins, reviewed the last B. M. C., Meeting and in no short term bitterly denounced those who were delegates from here who supported H. L. Johnson, who was a candidate for Grand Master.
Dr. B. W. S. Daniels was mentioned as the club's choice for Grand Master of the state and resolutions were adopted, that a committee wait upon him and urge him to run for the position There will probably be several more meetings of this nature held in the near future.
Her Religion Fatal.
Albany, Ga., Feb 1.—When the Negro preacher who cares for the flock of Friendship Church in the southwestern section of Albany began "exhorting" last night one of those in the large congregation who got happy and began shouting was Anna Johnson, twenty-five years old. In a few minutes she was leading the shouting, throwing her arms above her head and crying out at the top of her voice. Suddenly, she fell to the floor. Those who crowded around her thought she had merely fainted, but a physician who was called in pronounced her dead. She was, so far as is known, in perfect health up to the hour she went to church. Many members of the Friendship congregation have declared that they have shouted for the last time.

NEW PLAN HAS BEEN ADOPTED.
For Representation in Next Republican Convention.
Washington, D.C., Feb. 1—Secretary James B. Reynolds of the Republican National Committee, today announced that the new plan of the Republican National Committee, had been approved by states representing 290 electoral votes—some twenty-five more than necessary under the conditions made by the national committee—and will be put in effect when the committee meets to arrange for the next national convention.
Secretary Reynolds' statement says:"At a meeting of the committee, held in Washington in December, 1913, it, was decided that the basis of representation should be changed, if Republican state conventions in states representing a majority of the votes in the Electorial College, which would be equivalent to the majority of delegates in the national convention, should authorize the change. At that time the following resolution was passed:
"Confident that the action of this committee, representing, as it does, the practically unanimous sentiment of the Republican voters of the various states, will be ratified and be made effective.
"Be it, resolved, That this committee, shall issue the call for delegates to the national convention, to be held in the year 1916, to nominate a candidate for President and vice-president, in accordance with the following basis of representation:
"Each state shall be entitled in such convention to four delegates at large.
"Two additional delegates at large for each representative at large in Congress elected from any state entitled to one more additional representative in Congress under the apportionment made in accordance with the last census, but in which state no new congressional district has been provided by law; "One delegate from each congressional district:
"An additional delegate for each congressional district in which the vote for any Republican elector in 1908, or for any Republican nominee for Congress in 1914, shall have been less than seven thousand five hundred (7,500);
"Provided, however, that the total number of delegates to which any state is entitled shall be chosen from the state at large if the law of the state in which the election occurs so prescribes; and,
" 'Provided, further, that in the case of any state electing all representatives in Congress from the state at large,' such state shall be entitled to as many delegates, elected at large, as though the state were divided into separate Congressional districts.' " The resolution also provides for alternates; delegates from the District of Columbia, Alaska and insular possessions; and the approval of the new system in
The Kemper Harreld recital which was held at St. Paul Church on Friday night of last week was one of the most enjoyable entertainments ever given here by a Negro artist. Mr. Harreld's numbers were all of the highest-order and the clear and melodious tones which he produced on the violin were of a quality as has seldom been heard by a Savannah audience. His interpretation of "The Swanee River" seemed to strike deep down in the souls of his audience and he was forced after a prolonged applause to render an enchore. Perhaps to the musical critic, in the rendition of "Traumerei" did the artist show to his highest excellence. In it he brought out all of the beautiful strains for which the violin is noted. Mr. Harreld gave unmistakable evidence of the excellent training which he has received both in this country and abroad and his appearance here will long be remembered by the music lovers of this city. Mrs. C. A. Lewis was the accompanist and her playing was such that Mr. Harreld could easily appear at his best. Mr. Harreld was assisted by local talent.
such number of states as are entitled to cast a majority of the votes in the present electoral college. Mr. Reynolds' statement further says: "The states that formally ratified this plan, and the electoral votes that they represent, are as follows:
"Arkansas, 9; California, 13; Colorado, 6; Connecticut, 7; Idaho, 4; Illinois, 29; Indiana, 15; Maine 6; Massachusetts, 18; Michigan, 15; Missouri, 18; New Jersey, 14; New York 45; North Carolina, 12; Ohio, 24; Oklahoma, 10; Rhode Island, 5; South Carolina 9; Tennessee, 12; Vermont, 4; Washington, 7; West Virginia, 8.
"There were in addition to these, several states which were in favor of the plan, but which held no state convention in 1014."
The membership of the next national convention, in accordance with the above plan, has not yet been worked out in detail by states, as this requires a canvass of the votes in each Congressional district, in order to determine the additional delegates to be allowed. The result by states will be made known later by the national committee. The statement further says: "The official returns that have been compiled by the Republican National Committee show that on national issue the vote of the country in November was: Republican, 5,915,270; Democratic, 5,752,580; Progressive, 1,474,243."
This compilation was made on the vote for United States senators and representatives in Congress, and not on the vote for governors or other state officers.
Preparing For Health Week
Preparing For Health Week
SOME REASONS FOR ITS OBSERVANCE.
Diseases Most Fatal to Negroes
Program of the Work to be Distributed Soon.
Under the call of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League, Dr. Booker T. Washington, president, preparations are going forward in all parts of the country, in the South particularly, for carrying out the suggestion which has been outlined by Dr. Washington and his Executive Committee for the observance of National Negro Health Week.
The particular reason for asking the Negro people of the country to observe National Negro Health Week are set forth in a bulletin statement just issued and which follows. Dr. Washington writes:
1. We are asking the Colored people of the nation to unite in observing a National Health Week in the belief that in carrying out the suggestion outline below they will be doing the best possible service to themselves and to the race. Many diseases are spread from the sick to the well by means of germs that come from the sick person. These germs find their way into filth and waste and reach the bodies of well persons to whom they give the disease.
2 Diseases Most Fatal to Negroes.
The following are the diseases most fatal to Negroes: Diseases of infancy from which 27 per cent of all deaths among Negroes occur; tuberculosis from which 18 per cent of all Negroes die; pneumonia, 11 per cent of all their deaths; diseases of the heart, 8 per cent of all their deaths; Brights Disease, 7 per cent of all their deaths; Diarhea, 8 per cent of all their deaths.
3. Diseases Exact their Greatest Toll from the Young.
The diseases which annually sweep away such large numbers of our people exact their greatest toll of babies and children and our young men and women, who being in the very prime of life constitute, economically and intellectually, the most valuable asset for the future progress of our race. Instead of these persons living and doing service as leaders of the masses of our people, they give their lives in useless toll to death. Our only remedy for this fearful drain on the pick and flower of our young womanhood and manhood is a widespread inculcation of the habit of clean surroundings and clean living.
A suggestive or outline program will be issued very soon, the purpose being to ask various committees to take copies of this outline program and have it reprinted in their various communities, under the auspices of the several co-operating agencies so that a definate program for getting results may be followed in each community where National Negro Health Week is observed.
Mrs. Braxton Meeting With Success.
Mrs. Braxton, principal of the Russel Normal Industrial School of Haynesville, Ala., who is in the city in the interest of her work is meeting with success. Mrs. Braxton spoke in two of the large churches Sunday and also to the Y. W. C. A. The people of Savannah are favorably impressed with Mrs. Braxton. She will speak at First Bryan Baptist church Sunday night. It is earnestly hoped that every minister in the city will give her a hearing Mrs. Braxton plans also to have a special meeting in one of the larger churches with the girls of the city. The meeting will be announced later. The Tribune wishes for her success in her work.
Married
Mss Frances Sawyer and Mr Fred M. Taylor were married on last Thursday night. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. L. Cash.
NUMBER 20
BANQUET BUSINESS LEAGUE WEDNESDAY NIGHT
WILL BE HELD IN WILLIAMS BUILDING.
Large Attendance Anticipated—
All Old Officers Re-Elected
Wednesday Night—League Expects to Launch Active Campaign for Increased Business—
Over One Hundred. Members Enrolled.
The local branch of the National Negro Business League will hold a banquet Wednesday night on the second floor of Williams building at which time the officers elected Wednesday night will be installed. Plates for about one hundred will be laid and the occasion will undoubtedly be one of much enjoyment.
The president of the league, A. B. Singfield, will act as master of ceremony and the affair will be strictly informal. It was decided at a meeting several weeks ago that those who were to take part should pay one dollar. Those who have not already paid may send their money to Mr. E. W. Houstoun, 458 West Broad street. At the meeting Wednesday night, the old board of officers was re-elected, the leadership of the body being again entrusted to Mr. A. B. Singfield, local district manager of the Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance Company.
The league which was organized in the spring of 1912 has now a membership of 112 and will strive to bring this number up to one hundred and fifty in the next few months. Most of the leading business men of the city are enrolled in the roster of members. The famous Tuskegee concert band was brought here by the league in 1913, as were also several noted Negro artists. Recently the league, as one of the four organizations of the allied charities has given several interesting entertainments, the last of which was the Kemper Harreld violin recital of Friday night of last week.
However, the most beneficial thing which the league has done has been the creating of a friendly and co-operative spirit among the Negro business men of the community. Through the league's weekly letter in The Tribune, by J. C. Lindsay, the local Negro business men have been able to bring their businesses before the public in a way which has been very beneficial, and the public meetings of the league held from time to time during the year have brought forth many good results to the local Negro business men. These meetings will be continued this year and several high class concerts are being considered by the league.
Bill to Separate Races.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 1—A bill to separate whites and Negroes on passenger vehicles in the District of Columbia was favorably reported to-day to the House. The committee report says there is constant friction between the races on street cars and that the proposed law would be a comfort to each.

St. Philip's Dots
Rev. Singleton was the Lord's messenger at the 11 o'clock service on Sunday. Attendance was excellent. Bishop G. W. McLamore of the Christian church preached at 8:15. Rev. Singleton and a delegation of ladies from the Georgia conference will leave for New Orleans, La., next Tuesday for the Bishops' council and Woman Home and Foreign Missionary conference of the A. M.

Lesson XI.—First Quarter, For March 14, 1915.
Text of the Lesson, I Sam. xi—Memory Verses, 12, 13—Golden Text, Prov. xvi, 32—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
After the Lord had brought to Samuel the man whom He had chosen as king for Israel and Samuel had anointed him he returned to his home, having met on his way all whom Samuel said he would meet, for all came to pass just as Samuel said. The Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he became a changed man (chapter x, 6-10). All this was a private matter between the Lord and Samuel and Saul, for when Saul reached home he only told that Samuel had assured him that the asses had been found, but he said nothing of the kingdom. Then Saul called the people to Mizpeh; reminded them of the Lord's deliverance from Egypt and all enemies and of their rejection of God in demanding a king and then proceeded to have them elect a king with God's permission. It was, no doubt, done by lot, as the land was divided, for "the lot is cast into the lap, but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord" (Num. xxvi, 55, 56; Prov. xvi, 33). First the tribe was found and then the family and then the man (chapter x., 20, 21; compare Josh. vll, 16-18), and thus they were guided to the man whom He had already chosen and anointed. Although elected, he could not for a time be found, so they inquired of the Lord, and He told them where to find him. Whether it be a person or a thing that cannot be found. He that is perfect in knowledge knows where to find the lost (Job xxxvi, 4).
When the people looked upon the man whom God had chosen they could not refrain from shouting, "God save the king!" or, as in the margin, "Let the king live!" (x. 23-25.) The band of men whose hearts God had touched were a comfort to him, so that he was able to seem as a deaf man to his enemies (x. 26, 27). Our lesson chapter shows how Saul by the Spirit of the Lord began to deliver Israel and to obtain the confidence of the people. I suppose there is scarcely a day in the life of any child of God when there is not an occasion to say, "Now, the serpent" (Gen. ill. 1), for he is ever going about to make trouble. Nahash, whose name signifies "serpent," was moved by the devil, whose he was and whom he served, to seek to bring reproach upon Israel (verses 1-3). Saul heard of the distress of Jabesh Gilead and in a very striking way summoned the people to gather unto him and Samuel, and 330,000 gathered, and word was sent to the distressed that they would have help by the morrow. That night or in the early morning (verse 11) Saul came suddenly upon the Ammonites and so completely routed them that two of them were not left together (verses 4-11).
The morning deliverances of the Bible are full of interest and are all suggestive of the morning that is coming, when the Lord shall finally and forever deliver Israel (Ps. xlvi. 5, margin). Compare Ps. xlix. 14, and see Ex. xlv. 24, 27. Think also of Dan. vi. 19, 23, and of the deliverance that came to the disciples in the morning watch (Mark vi. 48). But, while believers may well rejoice in the glorious morning that is coming and in Him who is to us the Morning Star (II Sam. xxll. 5; Rev. xxll. 16), it is also written that there will be no morning for such as do not believe God (Isa. vill. 20; margin and revised version). When the people saw the great deliverance wrought by Saul they asked to have Saul's enemies put to death, but Saul would not listen to it, saying, "There shall not a man be put to death this day, for today the Lord hath wrought salvation in Israel" (verses 12, 13). It was the same power that wrought for Israel at the Red sea (Ex. xlv. 13, 30) and on so many occasions in all their history, and their greatest deliverance is yet to come (Zech. xlv. 3, 9). Samuel then gathered the people to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the Lord, offered sacrifices, and all Israel rejoiced greatly (verses 14, 15). Thus far all seemed to be going well, but when man has his way there is soon failure; for "verily, every man at his best state (apart from God) is altogether vanity" (Ps. xxxix. 5).
Chapter xii tells how Samuel rehearsed the history of the nation from their coming out of Egypt, the Lord's dealings with them under Moses and Aaron and how many a time He delivered them in the days of the judges. He also asked them to testify as to whether during all the time that he had judged them he had ever taken anything from them or defrauded any one or taken a bribe to blind his eyes, but they called God to witness that they could find no fault in him in any of these matters (xii, 1-5). To show them that he was right before the Lord as well as in their eyes and that they had done wrong in asking for a king when the Lord Himself was their King he asked the Lord to send thunder and rain that day, and He did so. The people seemed to see their sin and asked Samuel to pray for them (xii, 6-10). Samuel assured them that, though they had done this great wrong, yet if they would truly turn to the Lord and fear Him and serve Him in truth with all their heart He would for His great name's sake forgive them and not forgive them and he (Samuel) would not cease, to pray for them.

Making the Little Farm Pay
A little interest and effort on the part of the family will make a success of fruit on a small farm. The work is not incessant, but it is important at times and requires intelligence and energy. Small fruits pay well in almost any locality, and they are so easily managed that amateurs need not hesitate about making this a prominent feature in their program.

Raspberries turn many a rough and idle spot into profitable land. A farmer who does not make a few hundred dollars a year from berries is not up to snuff. Black raspberries are usually set two and one-half feet apart in the row, with the rows six feet apart. Planted among the trees of an orchard the red raspberry will do rather better than the black. It is not best to put them closer than eight feet from the trees. Fall planting of red raspberries in severe latitudes is not to be recommended. None of the red raspberry family is of ironclad hardiness, and the young plants when transplanted in the fall are much more subject to severe or fatal injury from freezing than they would be if well established. Spring planting is by all means preferable in sections of the country where the temperature drops to or below zero. The plants of the red sorts are termed suckers and should be transplanted at one year old, at which age they rarely have more than one cane, which should be cut back to eight or ten inches at time of transplanting.

bottom of the furrow, but cover only a few inches at first and draw in soil as they grow. While berries do not thrive in soggy land, they like plenty of moisture in the soil, and sprinkling can be done to advantage. In setting out currant bushes one should be careful to select a place where there is plenty of light and air. They do not require especially fertile soil, but they do need the sunlight and air. If possible do not put the bushes where they will be weighted down by snow in the winter, for this breaks the branches.
The ground should be worked thoroughly and deep before setting out the bushes, for after the planting only a very shallow cultivation can be done, as the currants are a surface rooting plant. Rotted manure is one of the best fertilizers for working into the land, and after the currant bushes have been set out this will be found excellent as mulch.

Hardy one-year-old plants are found to be among the best for starting a new piece. The plants begin to bear the year after planting and come into full maturity in the third year. If they are given care they will produce paying crops for a score of years. Pruning should be done in the early spring, cutting out all the dead and weak branches and heading back most vigorous growth. It will be seen that the currant is an easy plant to raise as well as a very profitable one. The same is true of the gooseberry. Very few diseases attack these plants. The currant worm can be killed by applying pyrethrum powder. If there is any disease found to be among the branches it is best to cut off the afflicted ones at once and thus prevent the spread of the trouble.
The methods of caring for the gooseberry plants are practically the same as those used in dealing with currants. It was formerly thought that gooseberries would do best in a shady place, but this is not true. Mildew will attack them if they are kept shaded. The only thing to prevent this is to have the plants kept open at the top.

"Plowsole."
This is an artificial hardpan very commonly formed in the practice of plowing to the same depth year after year. A packed layer is thus formed by the action of the plow, which acts exactly like natural hardpan in preventing the passage of water downward and the moisture upward. This condition, or "plowsole," is more often found in clayey solis and greatly increases the difficulty of working them. Of course it is perfectly easy to prevent this trouble by plowing at various depths from time to time. In this case lime will generally be found useful in materially aiding the disintegration of the "plowsole."—Purdue Agriculturist
Seed Corn From Shock.
Seed corn taken from shock corn which has stood in the field most of the winter has been found to give no better germination test than $1\frac{1}{2}$ per cent in some instances. Such corn cannot be used for seed with any degree of success. Corn is not allowed to dry out well in the shock, and when frequent freezing and thawing begins the vitality of the corn soon vanishes.

Among the many indulgences
of our people, which are fraught,
more or less, with evil conse-
quences,nonehold a more promin-
ant place in our mind at the
present time than the one which
allows the bill collector of: the
various business houses, a
too frequent presence upon our
premises. That such an indul-
gence brings to our people in
many instances, unneces-
sary annoyances and
insults, 2 little investigation
will disclose. Let anyone
take awalk in one of the sections
of our city, thickly inhabited
by ear peopleand there he will see
scores of these collectors engaged
in a seeming house to house
canvass. A prelonged investiga-
tion willreveal the fact that as
msny as two, three, four,-and
sometimes a half dozen of these
collectors call at asingle home in
the course of a day. And for
what? Simply to collect a few
pennies on accounts which have
been made with their firms.
‘According to our way of think-
ing, buying on the installment
plan is poor business policy.
Yet, sometimes it may be neces-
sary so to do. Granting that
this is so, we do not see why our
peopledo not arrange with their
creditors ur the merchants with
whom they do business, to call at
their places of business them-.
selyes in order to pay their bills
instead of having these collectors
to call, who, too often, with hat
oc head and cigar in mouth enter
the premises of our people with
an air suggestive of completa
indifference to or disregard of
polite conduct. As we have
aforesaid, we believe that such
indulgence on the part of some of
our people, is fraught with many
evil consequences and since an
eunce of prevention is wortha
pound of cure, we suggest that
oar people rid themselves of the
sollactors evil by paying their
bills at the office of the mer-
chants with whom they have to
deal.
The Tribune has been publish-
ing the names of the six leading
pupils inthe public schools, ever
since the present school term
began and we are told by the
teachers that the appearance of
these names in public print has
been no small factor in inducing
the pupils in general tomake better
marks. The Tribune is pleased
to note the wide interest taken by
the pupils in the appearance of
their names in print and is ever
ready todo all in its power to
stimulate their interest and
enthsiasm in their work,
However, we wish to
call attention of the parents to
the part which they may play in
spurring their children on to
greater endeavor in their work.
Children, as is also true of adults
are susceptible to kind and
encouraging words and thought-
ful deeds. It is one thing for
parents to know that their child-
ren are making poor marks in
school and that their names
appear in the list of the few
highest each month, but it is
quite another thing to let them
know thnt their avork is being
diligently watched and that any
improyement no matter how
small is appricated by them.
Many parents are very obser-
vant and upon the least sign of
improvement by their children
along any ‘line whatever ‘are
thoughtful enough make to men-
tion of it to them by offering
words of praise or in showing their
appreciation in other ways.
There is nothing which should
give a parent more genuine
pleasure than to know that his
childis“making good”*by showing
improvement in school from time
to time. Ofcourse we ar¢
aware of the fact that every ‘chilc
can not be among the leaders it
his“élass, for all_ of them are“ not
endowed with the same amount
of ability; yet fur the parents of
‘those children whose names do
not appear in the list of leaders,
4s they appearin ‘fhe Tribune,
would it not bea source of en-
couragement to them to 2 get copy
ofthe paper and let them know
that their “excellence in scholar-
ship is appreciated. Would it be
a.bad idea to Jet your friends
and relatives in other cities see
that your child is succeeding by
sending themTheTribune with his
name among the Jeaders? We do
not advise this in order to stmi-
ulate The Tribune or erenas a
matter of advertisement, but
simply as one way which the
parents of those pupils who are
lending their clusses may show
their appreciation for the good
work their children are doing.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
There is one lesson especially
that a certain class of our -people
must learn, and that is to respect
the laws and those in authority,
despite the fact that officials
themselves exceed the law. The
latter is demonstrated by the too
free use of the club by policemen
in making arrests and the former
by bystanders interfering.
Itis amusing how the Repub-
lican senators are wrapping the
dominant Democratic senators
ground their fingers inthe ship
purchase bill consideration.
Tho permanency of the regis-
tration list of the State should
inspire every colored man to
qualify. Oute on the list the
only requirgment is the paying
of a poll tax of one dollar a year.
- In Chatham county there are
about nine hundred colored men
on the registration. This num-
ber is entirely too small in pro-
proportion to our population. At
least ten per cent of the popula-
tion should be represented on the
voters’ list, therefore instead of
‘nine hundred voters, we should
have nearly five thousand: We

It would indeed pay for many
of us learn our city aud be shown
the number of cozy and beautiful
homes that are owned by our peo-
ple and are being erected in the
several sections of the city.
Twenty-tive years ago we could
easily count the number of color-
ed persons who owned their
homes; today it is different. Our
people are becoming more and
moré consumed with the idea of be-
home owners, especially is this
trucof the younger men. Dur-
ing the past several years the
class of humes erected has been
much improved and modern style
and improvements injected. This
is becoming more apparent. The
home owning spirit has been ad-
vacated for years. by The Tribune
and same has been accentuated
by the Wage Earvers Bank which
has been the early means of mak-
ing it possible for hundreds of
our people to become land and
home owners. ‘This is being add-
ed to by the recent formation
of the Mechanics Bank and the
alertness of our real estateagents.
Those of our young men who
have not yet become contagious
with the home owning fever,
should be affected and join this
grand army. Property values
are lower now than they will
ever be, und advantage should be
taken of the same. It would
not be a bad idea for much of the
outlying property to be secured;
years hence the value will in-
crease, thus assuring 4 fair com-
petency to the investors. At any
rate we are inspired by what our
people have done and are doing
in the home owing line, and ad-
monish hundreds of others to join
the number.

Anderson street was anopen

day. Young men, grasp the’idea

Our white citizens are too slow
in boosting things that are bene-
ficial to Savannah. In_ politics
they are allowing the other parts
of the State to take advantage of
them. The district attorney for
the Southern District of Georgia
should have been a Savannah
lawyer. Now the assisvant’s
place will be given to someone
out of Sayannah, It is noted
that the bill creating anew fed-
eral judgeship for this section of,
the State will soon become a law-
Candidates are being groomed in
other sections; what is Savannah
doing? Sitting supinely by and
waiting to register a kick in event
the position is given to some one
of another place. Let our white
citizens awake from their Iethar-

Our white friends are compiain-
ing that at the beginning ofthe
coming schovl term about, five
hundred of their children wiU-be
without school accommodations.
They should have another - huild-
ing. .According to information
given out by Supt. Ashmore there
are at present above six - thotisand
Negro children unable to. be
accommodated. What about
them? It is true that wo, have
just"had erected for us anew
building, but it is entirely.ingde-
quate. We need three more new
buildings to care for the untutor-
ed thousands. Our white citi-
zens are responsible for our edu-
cation. If we do not directly
pay sufficient taxes to support
our schools, indirectly we do, and
are entitled to agrammar educa-
tion. Another thing, our white
friends should keep in mind that

Among the Masons
Annual reports and fees from all lodges must be rendered and be in the office of the Grand Sec retary on or before March first. Letters from many of the lodges state that good reports will be made.
"In' Masonry we find the most splendid of all philosophies of life and morals, the concentrated wisdom of all the generations of men who have lived and suffered and labored, and tonight rest in dreamless sleep in quiet cities of the dead. So Masonry means, not only the garnered wisdom stored up in lectures and books, but more especially that wisdom which becomes part of the life.
Pleasure in Freemasonry.
The master of a lodge declares it is his will and pleasure that the work of his lodge be opened and closed. Let us for a few moments consider the pleasure of Freemasonry. Pleasure is every one's aim, from the prince to the peasant, from the president to the pauper. Every one craves enjoyment. Freemasonry possesses within itself the simplest power of safety this craving in every brother, whatever healthy enjoyment his mental, moral and physical nature desires, that the fraternity has in store for him. And it may be had for the seeking. "Seek and ye shall find" pleasure, the most satisfying pleasure, in the Craft.
"Life is but a narrow bridge soon to be crossed. A whisper, a word, and the end of all. We know not from whence we came, but faith tells us where we may go. Mystery all around us, but light above us.
"We have passed the Isle of the Long Ago. Just before us are the portals of the Somewhere Land. When we pass them, all of life as it has been will be over, and life as it shall be will begin.
"The temple eternal will be for us. The temple in its beauty will shine with a spiritual splendor and with marble walls and plates of eternal strength and minarets of glory will greet us. Rivers of entrancing beauty will ebb and flow and music ineffable will greet the car."
The novitiate into the mysteries of Freemasonry is taught to lay the corner stone, and place the foundation of his Masonic Temple on the Rock of Truth.—Selected.
"A Masonic optimist is a brother who can at night make lemondade from the lemons thrown at him during the day. A Masonic pessimist is a brother who can make vinegar in the evening out of sweet things said to him during the day. Which are you?" Levity, ribaldry, obscenity, profanity and all forms of baseness
are absolutely incompatible with Masonry; somberness, 'melancholy and depression are equally inconsist. True, we toil in a place hallowed by solemn and sacred associations. The volume of the sacred law must always be open before us in our great work, the sacred symbol of the Great Architect is inseparably conspicuous in our toil; but these sensible elevate; inspire and sustain us in all we do. The notable symbol of the Star and Garter, the Golden Fleece and Roman Eagle cannot inspire and uplift as will these. Our work is sublime, our spirit must be lofty. The sacred labor we undertake is done absolutely "of our own free will and accord." The Great Architect is no taskmaster. It is a labor of love, inculcating reverence, refinement, culture and dignity in every true workman.—Selected.
It is one of the glories of Masonry that its work is done without ostentation or display, that it does not advertise its good deeds that it lifts up and elevates and upbuilds without boasting of its work. As in the building of the Temple, there was not heard the sound of hammer or any tool of iron, so in Masonic circles the fabric of good citizenship is built up without boasting or self-praise —Selected.
The New York Courier says that studious Masons are comparatively rare, although there is a vast amount of rich learning in Masonry.—Exchange.

When Matter Conquered Mind
Lord Wolseley maintained that Ostend would have been the scene of a desperate battle in 1815 if Napoleon's bodily strength had then proved on a par with his brain power. "The more I study the Waterloo campaign." Wolseley told Grant Duff, "the more highly do I think of Napoleon. If his physical condition and energy had been equal to the powers of his mind, I think he would have succeeded in his design and would first be beaten the Prussians and then driven us back on Ostend. * * * In spite of his odious and contemptible character Napoleon was the greatest man of whom we know anything and quite unlike anybody else."—London Mirror.
INTROSPECTION
One can accomplish but comparatively little when all is said, for, make no mistake about it, however much we may pose and strut in the outside world, in the solitude of our own studies there are few of us but know how the faults and blemishes of our craft stand boldly out and stare us in the face to remind us that we are small enough and halting enough to be always learning, never quite gloriously achieving.
LIVE STOCK HUSBANDRY
WINTER HOG FEEDING.
Proper Housing and Dry Beds Indispensable to Good Growth.
One of the most important points in feeding in cold weather is providing ample housing places and seeing that they are on high and dry ground, writes a correspondent of the American Cultivator. In rainy weather the bedding should be removed several times a week and replaced with dry material. A severe winter, will convince the observing man who cares for live stock that proper housing means not only a saving of high priced feeding material, but also more flesh for the feed consumed. A hog that sleeps where he is chilled night after night will naturally require more feed to keep the warmth of the system normal, and at the same time while he, is consuming more grain and slop he is

Chester White swine, a United States breed, are of the lard or fat type. They have pendent ears and large, long bodies and reach heavy weights. They are good feeders and breeders. The breed is white and only fairly numerous. The illustration shows an excellent picture of the breed. The sow is a pure bred Chester White.
putting on less flesh than if he ate 25 per cent less feed and was properly housed.
Another factor in properly caring for winter hog feeding is having a dry and sanitary feeding place. Many farmers in recent years have provided cement floors in their hog lots and sheds. This means of sanitation is one of the greatest health promoters and devices for economy that is used thus far when actual cost of building is taken into consideration. Many who feed their swine in dirty, insanitary, mud flooded hog lots are wasting feed daily and endangering the health of the hogs as well. The amount of grain saved alone in the course of one year would easily pay for one of those concrete floors in many cases. The feeder can take an ordinary corn shovel and clean the cobs and dirt off once daily in ten minutes, and in the same ten minutes he is saving a large amount of feed and preserving the health of the hogs. Hogs fed under these circumstances are more healthy, thrifty and better for the owner's meat and marketing purposes by 50 per cent than being poorly housed and having insanitary feeding troughs and pens.
FEEDING BEEF STEERS.
Experiments Show That Young Anti-
Mole Make Economical Gaine
mals Make Economical Gains.
According to Professor H. R. Smith, liberal feeding of a steer from the time he is twelve months old until he is twenty-four months old will result in a gain of practically two pounds per day, says the Iowa Homestead. If he is carried for another year this gain will be reduced to a pound and three-quarters per day, and the following year it will take liberal feeding to make a pound and a half daily. This means that the largest gains are made early in life, and it follows that these gains will be made cheaper, because the cost of maintenance is lower. In emphasizing the matter of cheapness of cost of feeding young animals Professor Smith refers to six different trials where accurate records were kept, showing that during the first twelve months of a beef animal's life a hundred pounds of increase in weight cost $3.45, the second twelve months the same animals cost $7.42 per hundred pounds, while the third twelve months it ran up to $11.50 per hundred pounds.
In the light of these figures it can be well understood why the early maturing animal is increasing in popularity, particularly with those feeders who raise their own cattle. It must be remembered that all steers are not of a type to finish up at an early age, because increase in weight is in the form of growth rather than the form of flesh. It is all a question of type, some types being ready for the block almost any time after they have acquired their calf fat, while others reach prime conditions only at maturity or thereabouts. When corn belt cattlemen settle down to a policy of raising the catie that are fed out in the feed lob then and then only will the real merit of the early maturing type be appreciated.
Lice Infested Horses.
There is no use of treating horses to destroy lice unless you cleanse, disinfect, fumigate and whitewash the stable and have it light and perfectly ventilated. Lice and their eggs stay in such places, and reinfect the horses time after time or indefinitely. Insect powder (pyrethrum powder) has some beneficial effect if used every ten days or so freely on the parts of the body most infested. Spraying cannot safely be done in cold weather. Blanket the horses after applying the powder. Slaked lime will do no good, but sulphur is helpful.
FEED THE COLTS A LIBERAL RATION
FEED THE COLTS A LIBERAL RATION
The high cost of keeping horses is often a temptation to feed colts especially in a very poor and cheap manner during the winter, says the Kansas Farmer. In this effort to cheapen the cost of keeping horses and colts some farmers try to carry the young colts through the winter on straw, corn fodder and other low grade feeds of this character. This is a "penny wise and pound foolish" policy. Young colts fed in this way are stunted at the most important point of life. They never overcome the results of this period of hardship, and when ready for market they sell foa from $25 to $75 less than colts with no better breeding but which have received an abundance of growing feed during the first three years of their lives.
The market continues to demand big horses of proper type and conformation, and the only way to produce them is to supply an abundance of feed during the critical period of the coit's life. With the same thought of cheapening the cost of keeping horses there is a temptation, when the working season is over, which usually finds the horses thin in flesh, to turn them out on poor fall pastures. With this treatment working horses may go into the winter even thinner in flesh than when the season of hard work ended. The saving of feed and expense at this period of the year must be paid back during the spring season with interest. The work horse should be so fed and han-

The farmer who does not have a large proportion of brood mares among his horses is not getting all out of his farm that he should. A few heavy draft mares are valuable assets at this time when the horse raising centers of Europe are largely out of business. Good, heavy mares should be mated to pure bred stallions of one of the recognized draft breeds. Under no circumstances should scrub stallions be used. The picture shows a pure bred Percheron stallion.
dled that it will go into the winter in a reasonably fleshy condition. Whenever alfalfa is grown the pasturing of the work horses on the alfalfa meadows during the fall and early winter season puts them in most excellent condition for the winter. Where horses go into the winter in good condition it is much easier to keep them thrifty, and as spring approaches it will cost less to harden them and prepare them for the work of the spring and summer season.
Impaction of Sheep.
Sheep must have a laxative or succulent feed to regulate the bowels in winter. Keep them out of the stalk field and off frozen meadow and feed clover or alfalfa hay, a mixture of whole oats, wheat bran and ollime, and, if possible, give them roots or silage twice daily. Two pounds of either roots- or silage for each sheep will suffice. For bloat give a pint of new warm milk from a cow and repeat in half hour if necessary. Make the sheep take plenty of exercise every day and keep them dry.
Two Litters a Year.
Sows can be made to produce two litters a year. When this is desired they should be bred at the first period of heat after the pigs are weaned. Sows bred twice a year will not produce so many pigs in each litter as when bred only once a year, but more pigs should be raised in a year from each sow.
Milk of the Ewe:
An analysis of ewe milk shows it to be very high in fat content. The different breeds show some variation in this regard, and there is a considerable variation in the fatty content of the milk of a single ewe at various times. All ewes give richer milk immediately after the lamb is born than they do later on.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE Aid Given by Farmers In Fighting This Widespread Trouble. Prepared by the United States department of agriculture.]
The recent lifting of the foot and mouth quarantines from large areas previously closed and the modification of the quarantines in still other sections has been made possible by the co-operation not only of the various state officials, but of farmers and stockmen themselves. Where this cooperation has been most in evidence progress in the eradication of the disease has been most rapid. The federal authorities have of course control over the movement of live stock in interstate commerce only. The local quarantines are established and enforced by the state. Their efficiency depends in great measure upon the willingness of the people to submit to the necessary restrictions.
Indiana and Michigan are cited as instances of the importance in this re-

BARN PREPARED FOR PUMIGATION. spect of public opinion. In Michigan the first herd was slaughtered on Oct. 19. Cases of the disease existed in fifteen Michigan counties and in eighteen in Indiana. In all 330 herds were affected. Sixty days later these herds had all been slaughtered and the infected premises cleaned and freed from disease. In the interval there had been only a few scattering instances—half a dozen possibly—of the plague spreading from these different centers of infection to neighboring farms.
The people not only observed the quarantine regulations, but they did all in their power to expedite the work of slaughter. In many cases they had the ditches in which the animals were to be hurled dug and waiting for the killing gangs. As a rule, no objection was taken to the appraiser's valuation of the condemned stock, which is the more surprising in view of the fact that so little was generally known of the seriousness of the disease. The farmers did not want to part with their stock. They saw that the sore mouths and feet grew better, and they had had no experience with the after effects of the pestilence—the constant aborting, the failure to produce milk, the ability to disseminate disease months after the visible symptoms had disappeared. Nevertheless they accepted the situation, helping instead of hindering.
In only a very few cases was there any attempt to conceal the existence of the disease—in fact, public opinion was so strongly against this that it was practically impossible to do so. In one instance a man fed some skim milk from a creamery to a calf, which later developed foot and mouth disease. It occurred to him to kill the calf and say nothing about the matter. The neighbors, however, obtained some inkling of the facts and notified the authorities. After he had been forced to admit that he had killed the calf the body was dug up and unmistakable marks of the disease found upon it. Within two weeks all the
rest of the herd was infected and had to be killed. In addition, the owner was fined $20 or so for breaking the quarantine regulations. The sentiment of the whole community, it should be noted, was against him.
From such experiences live stock authorities are more than ever convinced that skimmilk should invariably be sterilized. The danger from the foot and mouth disease is, of course, a passing one. Previous epidemics have been stamped out, and there is no reason to suppose that this one will not be. Tuberculosis, however, is a permanent menace. Its symptoms are not so immediately noticeable, and it is therefore more difficult to trace the origin of the infection, but there is no doubt that it is frequently disseminated in skimmilk in the same way that the foot and mouth disease was in the instances described.
Together with the creameries, public sales of live stock have proved themselves most dangerous agents in spreading foot and mouth disease. In Indiana and Michigan the state authorities absolutely prohibited the holding of such sales in or adjacent to areas where the disease existed. The spread of the contagion in other states where this prohibition was not enforced shows the value of the precaution, but it requires strong and determined action on the part of the local authorities.
Every farmer should keep a record of his operating costs and the financial results of everything done on the farm. A farmer who does this is not going to lose anything, but is surely on the road to success. At first it will seem impossible to keep a record of labor, financial accounts and crop yields, but it will be surprising how the habit will become established. A very interesting and profitable record to work on at present is a harvest record of the different grain crops. Such a record will show the farmer how much his crops yielded and the cost to thrash the grain. When the value of such records is realized the farm will then be run on a more strictly business basis.—Orange Judd Farmer.
RADIUM AS FERTILIZER.
An Experimenter Asserts That It Will
\ Increase Yield of Land.
Radium as a fertilizer is a new idea in farming. It is asserted that it will increase the yield of land from 50 to 100 per cent.
..At Reasonabe Prices
So says Dr. H. H. Rusby of the New York College of Pharmacy. He has been experimenting with radium solutions on a tiny farm at Nutley, N.J. for the last two years. Recently he presented his results to the American Pharmaceutical association.

Dr. Rusby diluted his radium three milligrams to a ton of water. This, he says, will fertilize thoroughly twenty acres of land at an approximate cost of $30. The farm was only an acre and one-half in extent, but in small patches he raised practically all the vegetables used by northern farmers.
Fifty pounds of his solution to the acre gave the best results in the greatest number of cases. Some vegetables required more.
On the whole, however, Dr. Rusby found his experiments particularly encouraging. Cucumbers, squashes, melons, radishes, carrots, corn, cabbage and a host of others responded most satisfactorily to the treatment and gave results far above their normal output.
The use of radium as a fertilizer, Dr. Busby avers, did not originate with him. When it was found that weak solutions of radium salts applied to cancer only stimulated its growth scientists began to experiment with it upon plants. In the beginning all of the solutions which they used were far too strong. The New York botanical gardens and the University of Prague were the first to make successful experiments.
Movable Tool Box.
You might describe this device as a tool box on wheels or the wheel barrow work bench. It is one of the handiest things of its kind that can be made. Suppose a man wants to do a little work in a shed a quarter of a mile from the house? He can make this combination box and bench and take all the tools needed right along with it.

An Iowa farmer pays his foreman 25 cents for every pig over six to the sow which reaches the age for weaning. He likes to pay out the money, and the foreman looks upon it as clear gain. The bonus system is worth studying. It will work in other fields as well as in the piggery. Potash is difficult to get now, not because there are no ships to carry it, but because of the difficulty in securing railway and river equipment to move it from the mines and storehouses to the coast.
Corn fed the sows makes their pigs fat before farrowing, but the pigs need fat only after their eyes open on this world. Prior to that time they need only bone, muscle and vigor. Alfalfa hay, bran, roots and other protein bearing feed prepare the sow for successful farrowing. Corn fed sows are the ones which die at this critical time more than any other.—Farm and Fireside.

Negro BusinessLeague Weekly Letter
Negro BusinessLeague Weekly Letter
(By J. C. Lindsay)
In these days of unrest segregation and the annulling of constitutional amendments, the American Negro is being put on trial and his loyalty to race enterprises and to race uplift movements, is being tested, as never before. Many of these outrageous and down-right heartless laws, which were enacted for the sole purpose of reducing the best brain and thought of the race to humiliation and serfdom, had their beginnings yea, their birth, in a narrow, contracted mean heart.
Intended Meaness Turned into Good
But, He who said: "righteousness exalteth a nation," has decreed, yea, hath said: "He that regardeth the clouds, will not sow neither shall he reap." "In the morning sow thy seed, in the evening withhold not thy hand." Thus, it is seen from the texts quoted above, that the good Lord will certainly keep that man or that set of men who will help themselves, "Jim-crow" laws, segregation laws, heartless and unfair treatment to the contrary, notwithstanding. The enactment of many of these unfair and inhumane laws, have fallen short of their aim. The object and aim that these fire-eaters and hot water drinkers had in mind when certain of these laws were born into their hearts, which were evidently full of hate for a strug-
gling race which it pleased the Almighty, to place here in their midst, were to discourage and humiliate this struggling people to the extent that they would lose heart and finally give up in dispair. But such is not the case; on the contrary, these people are managing successfully in this State, a hundred thousand dollar old line, legal reserve straight life insurance company, which does over a million and a quarter business annually; six Negro industrial insurance companies which handle over a million and a half of Georgia Negroes' dollars every year; four Negro banks with Negro presidents, Negro cashiers and Negro boards of directors, who handle with safety, dignity and case over a million and a quarter of Georgia Negroes' dollars every year, and the money of every depositor is absolutely protected and is handed out to the proper persons by Negro cashiers.
Six Negro journals, published in five of the leading cities of the state, which besides being fearless defenders of Negro manhood rights, are moulders of favorable public sentiment, without which the better things done by the race would be kept in obscurity.
We have the inclination, yet not the space nor time, to call your attention to the many other worthy as well as profitable businesses engaged in by many of our foremost business men and women, and the ones above named were simply mentioned for the purpose of proving beyond a question of doubt that the good Lord at times makes the wrath of men praise him.
A Splendid Opportunity for Service
The Negro business and professional men of this community, have a splendid opportunity to render an invaluable service to the various moral uplifting agencies which stand so much in need of their services and encouragement, which they can ill afford to withhold. For example, have in our midst, we have a number of persons engaged in the worthy work of raising a fund with which to build an old folks and orphan home. We also have a number of generous hearted men and women who are engaged in the commendable work of studying the housing and sanitary conditions of our people under the national organization of better living and better housing conditions among our people in this city, better known as the Urban League. This organization has raised and given to the unfortunate ones among us since December 5th 1913, over $12.00.
Every man and woman engaged in business in this community, know of the good work being done by the local branch of the National Negro Business League. This organization, through the courtesy and kindness of the Savannah Tribune, for nearly a year, has kept the Negro business in the community in the lime-light. These are not all and the only agencies in this community which have for their life work the material and moral uplift of our people, but there are others, whose influence for good is seen and felt from another angle, which no business and professional man can afford to ignore, namely: the church and Sunday School. In this historic old southern city, one may find religious services being carried on each and every Sabbath, in all the churches representing every denomination. When a business and professional man has spent a week puzzling over the intricate and difficult problems, which are inevitably connected with his business or profession, there can come to him no sweeter relief than to rise on Sunday morning and repair to his Sunday School and there forget about business cares for an hour by throwing himself into such a service in a whole heared way. Some cold blooded proposition may dictate within him that this is putting too much religion into one's business; but what saith the word? "Be diligent in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord."
These are some of the principles for which the local branch of the National Negro Business League stands, which meets at headquarters the first Wednesday and third Friday evenings of each month. Come early and bring a friend.
