the tariff. for a work of such magni-

speed possible. The difference be-

the new bill is not perfect in all re-

An exchange seems to think that our
farmers profit nothing by the bulletins
that are sent out from the State EXper-
iment Station from time to time This
is not true and if it were it would only
convict the farmers of neglecting a
splendid opportunity to acquire useful
information. The bulletin lately issued
warning farmers against the orange
hawkwecd and telling them how to ex-
terminate it, if given the attention it
deserves. is well worth the cost of
maintaining the station for years. The
station cannot furnish the farmers with
brains but to the credit of the latter be

Elsewhere we give in full Judge
Thompson's ruling in the now cello
brated Eaton fish case, in which he
declared the statute providing for the
closing of private waters by the state
to be unconstitutional. So far as we
have been able to learn from conyersa-
ton and a study of state exchanges,
public sentiment seems to sustain
Judge Thompson, but all wish that he
had thought best to send the case up
to the supreme court for final iudg-
ment. The cost would have been no
more than in the next ease, and an Ill
innate decision must be had before the
question can be regarded as settled.
The fish commissioners have notified
wardens not to arrest persons fishing
i'm closed streams, but to warn them
and secure evidence by which to con-
Wet them later in the event of the test
case which will soon be made being de-
cided in favor ofthe constitutionality
of the law. This action on the part Of
the commissioners looks little timid
and will not deter reckless fishermen
as strict orders to arrest all violators of
the statute would have done.
