Frauds i'm Nursery Stock.

The above subject has been ably dis
cussed by the Michigan horticultural
society. These evils are frowned upon
by reputable dealers as much as they
are practiced by the dishonest. The
substitution clause, found in some nur-
sery catalogues, claims the right to fill
orders with varieties other than those
ordered, in case those ordered are not
in stock. The practice of working a
certain amount of old and stunted stock
into the younger grades is a well-known
evil. A "dealer" may canvass large
territory, selling all kinds of trees and
not own single tree. After collecting
his orders, he goes in the spring to a
nursery and purchases enough trees to
fill his orders, getting the cheapest he
can that will ELL the bill. Nearly all
nurseries have certain amount of
well-grown trees of unstable varieties
that they are glad to sell the " dealer !"
at any price. To illustrate this, in the
town of cambridge, Mich, there were
two "dealers " who secured the con-
fidences of the farmers, sold nearly all
the trees planted in the town for three
years, by selling them well-grown stock
The past season the three and four
year.old trees came into bearing and
not one tree in ten proved true to
name. There are about 100, 900 trees,
and the loss must amount to hundreds
of thousands of dollars, many of the
orchards being remarkably thrifty and
well-grown but practically worthless.

Whose Willing, Working Wife.

Up with the birds In the early morning
The dewdrop CLOVIS like precious gem;
Beautiful tints In the sky dawning,
But shes never moment to look at them
The men are wanting their breakfast early
She must not lnger, she must not wait
For words that are sharp and looks that are surly
Are what the men give when meals are late.
Oh, glorious coors the clouds are turning
II she would but look over hills and trees;
But here are the dishes and there is the churniug
Those things must always yield to these
The world Is filled with the wind of beauty
If she would but pause and drink 1t in;
But pleasure she says. must wait for duty
Neglected work Is committed sin.
The day grows hot and her hands grow weary:
Oh, for an hour to cool her head
out with the birds and the wind so CHEEKY;
But she must get dinner and make her bread
The busy men in the bayfield, working,
If they saw her sitting with idle hand
Would think her lazy and call her Sinking,
And she never could make them understand
They do not know that the heart within her
Hungers for beauty ana things sublime
They only know they want their dinner.
Plenty of it and just " on time"
And after the sweeping and churning and baking,
And dinner dishes all put by,
She sits and sews, though her head is aching,
Till time for supper and chores draws nigh.
Her boys at school must look like Others
She says as she patches their frocks and hose,
For the world is quick to censure mothers
For the least neglect in their children's clothes
Her husband comes from the field of labor:
He gives no praise to his weary wife;
She's done no more than has her neighbor
IT'S the lot of many in country life.
But after the strife and weary tusse.
When life is done and she lies at rest,
The nations brain and heart and muscle
Her sons and daughters-shall call her blest
And think the sweetest joy of heaven,
The rarest bliss of eternal life.
And the fairest crown of all will be given
Unto the wayworn farmers wife.

Agricultural Education.

The action of the Connecticut legis-
lature in its disposal of the Land Grant
funds and its creation of the Storrs
Agricultural College, naturally attracts
wide attention and general hearty APP
proval, so far as any opinion is expressed,
on the part of the agricultural press.
We find in the last issue of the Maine
Farmer, one of our most valued contem-
poraries, an editorial of some length
upon this matter, and dealing as well
with the difficulties attending on an
agricultural college course. Our outside
friends should comprehend that the
leading men identified with the agri-
culture of Connecticut who have been
unable to see the wisdom Of the course
adopted by the majority, are almost
without exception men who were &C
tive and earnest participants in the
establishment of the Storrs school, and
in the forefront of the fight which was
necessary to educate the rank and file
to a recognition of its usefulness and
importance. None of them, so far as
we know, have been disposed to
actively antagOnize a movement to
which the organized farmers of the
state were committed. Their posi-
ton has been known rather by their
silence than by their words. But
Connecticut agriculture has no four
other names to match against Hyde
and Gold, and johnson and Brewer,
and their opinions on agricultural edu-
cation are perhaps worth something.
The founder of the Storrs School did
not believe in agricultural colleges.
Certainly up to the time Of the estab-
lishment of that school, there was am
pie room for doubt as to their practical
usefulness as an aid to farming. Au-
gustus Storrs wanted to do a good thing
for Mansfield, and for the farmers boys
of the state. He believed, and the
men with whom he consulted believed
with him, that this lay in an agricult-
ural school, not of the college grade.
1t was perfectly plain to them as it was
to about everybody else, that whatever
advantages the agricultural college con-
ferred upon its graduates became ex-
ceedingly attenuated when they reached
the farms. The educated farmers To-
Gated anywhere except upon the home
acres. 1t was simply because the way
was opened to them to more profitable
employment elsewhere. This was a
good thing for the boys, but there was
no particular satisfaction in the result
from purely agricultural point of view.

A SENSIBLE writer says: eff a
young husband should come to me,
and ask me what he could do to keep
his wife young looking and happy, not
entirely worn out by the work and care
which must necessarily come to her as
a farmers wife, would tell him,
Look we'll to the ways of your house,
and by all means let her have the sit
ting ROOM Some man will pooh at
this, for he cannot understand why
that should be so dear to every woman's
heart. But it's So"

We wish to make a change so as to
make the labor less and still make a
fair profit from the dairy. I find by
testimonials that, by the separator proc
ess, we can add ten per cent to the
quantity of butter and still the quality
will be just as good or better. If such
is the case, the amount of butter for
last year would have been 8,453 pounds
and the amount received for it, 1927 40.
The question is, Shall we put in sepa-
rator and make our own butter, or shall
we sell the milk at creamery one and
one-half miles away? We would be
doing we'll to get an average of twenty
three cents at the creamery, and that
would make difference in receipts of
$3.50 38. We would be willing to give
twenty-five cents day to have the
milk carried to and fro-$91 ,25, making
the cost of sending to the creamery
$471.63. There may be other dairy
men thinking upon the same subject.
These figures may need toning down,
We want light. j. N. p.

BUT that farmers, above any other
class of citizens, are incapable of COM
pretending and demanding through
the ballot box the rights of freemen is
gross error. 1t is true that they are
somewhat at loss as to the best way
of coping with the new-sprung evils of
the present time; but that they are
insensible of their danger is a mon
strous mistake. We have solved the
problems of political and chattel slav-
cry, and we can solve the problems of
financial despotism. While we grope
for the right clue we are forming
mighty resolutions, and the writer
above quoted is quite right in building
great hopes upon the virtue and intel
ligence of the American farmer.

WHAT we want of our congressman
is not few papers of seeds, but faith
full, honest, energetic and successful
service in meeting and overcoming the
many influences at work in undermin-
ing American principles of liberty.
In order that we may do this effectively
we must send the best men we have to
our legislatures and to congress, and
then keep a sharp watch upon them,
encouraging them when they do well,
and warning them when we see them
seemingly making trades with the foes
of liberty. The next thirty years are
TO see as active movements in politics
as the past thirty. Our public men are
to be tried and sifted; and it will go
hard with those amongst them who
shuttle with great issues, or sell them
selves to the plutocracy that is trying
to rule America in its own interest.
We want no kings on our soil and
least of all will we be ridden over by
the money kings.

FROM whatever sources we have for
correct information on the subject
and these are almost entirely the re-
ports of the oleo tax collectors, there
is steady and large annual increase of
the manufacture of bogus butter. In
southern New England there has been
a general evasion of laws apparently
drawn purposely to be evaded. The
oleo lobby buys up the support of leg
islators enough to enable them to mu-
tiate the anti-oleo enactments in such
a manner as to render them practical
utilities. 1t is our belief that at this
very tir'2 :he cleo men control not less
than one-tbird of the trade in butter, to
the enormous injury Of the dairymen.
We have to meet the competition of
honest butter from the West. and do
not complain of that; but we do have
the right to have our produce protected
thoroughly from fraudulent imitation
which could not possibly be sold to con,
sumers to any great extent under its
true name.

YoUNGsTowN. O., Feb. 21.-A statement
was furnished this morning as q result OF
the investigation into the affairs Of Robert
L. Walker, showing that the amount of
paper on which Gov. Mckinley is an H.
dorser is fully S100,000 and may reach
$4,000. Experts assert that the total
liabilities of the governor will not exceed
the latter figures. The statement startles
the friends OF the governor, as 1t was not
believed at any time that he was on to ex-
coed $4,000. Arrangements are being
made TO promptly pay all the Mckinley
paper. Walker this morning resigned as
