indianapolis. Jan. 5.-Tne state board
OF agriculture whica is holding its annual
sstsslon in this city has before # a propo-
sfion that ;he property it owns be turned
over to the STATE and it become state
organization. Several years ago the su-
preme court hell that the body was a

llverei an address before the beard. Ae
said:
"a few evenings aga l heard a discus
sion among Distinguished gentlemen o.

a far less rate. The casual observer
might conclude that this Is TO the ad
vantage Of the farmer as the tenden ncy
Is to the deere lsing OF producers and the
Increasing Of consumers The careful
student Of economi,s. however, wants TO
understand the reason why there seems
to be 30 little attraction in country life
Farmers as a rule are inclined to talk
farming down instead OF exalting its POS
sfbilities. One Of the gentlemen above re

not fail short of SO.t5lgOO am In favor
of the broadest kind Of education, but I
want farmers educated in the science OF
agriculture as wei. There Is practically
no instruction as ITO how crops grow. the
clements OF paant life. food required, how
to conserve and how restore those ele-
ments to the soil. There is little or moth.
