The Legislature did not eIsetly cover il
self With glory, bat did some good ,hins
and prevented many bad measures from

ling than usual bat the closing hours we're
msfked by many expressions OF good will,

ed.
TIE most unexpected thing was the de
,eftnined fight made made by the House,
shich is composed OF large msiolity OF
farmers. to abolish the Board OF Agricnl
tnre, II was claimed that it has been OF
little practical use to the state, that its
mem beers have not been practical farmers,
bu, poliiicsl workers, in short, thst it has
been political machine. This We do not
believe. Its members have generally
been composed OF our very best farmers,
they have given good advice to the
farmers OF the state and the board has
been worth, 10 our opinion, many time
lts cost to the state. As 10 being political
received any state tflice.
