The agricultural Interest OF Texas
has been shamefully neglected by the
refusal to provide an agricultural de-
partment OF the state government,
worthy OF the name. The present
methods OF gathering and publishing
farm and crop statistics are practically
worthless. The bi-aunual reports Of
these statistics have already cost the
state upwards Of 100000 The repre-
sentative farmers of the state have long
ago discarded them, and have been
unable to realize the value or practical
use Of "a report touching crop which
has been sold on the market for two
years. These farmers want an up-t1-
date agriculture department, one that

There Is one way which the women
sunragists could possibly win success,
and obtain from the state legislature
concession of their demands. The
theory has been advanced by the Kan
sns city Journal, 1t says: Let the
'brainy women in rpeetacles and re-
formed gowns staJ at home and send
up TO the legislature strong delega-
ton of the efreminate young things
with pink checks and wltchinE ways.
An energetic button-hole bouquet lobby
OF this description would get an amend
ment through both houses In forty-eight
hours, To be sure. this is not the way
the strong-mlnded ladies desire to work
out their reform, but II is the way to
obtain results. Legislators who look
coldly on petitions and listen with In
difference to logical arguments will melt
down before coquettish glances and
tender appeals like pan OF cookies at
the mercy OF a small boy. After the
victory is won the young things can
| be retired and the 'brainy' folks come
| TO the front again. There are more
ways OF killing canine than by
choking II on butter, but there is only
one effective way OF storming a legis-
lature in behalf OF womens rights"
