There are radically different ideas
as to what the better agriculture
should consist In. The real farmer
is said to adhere too closely to the
ways of his fathers. He plods. The
city man who goes to the country
would correct all this BY overturning
1t. He sees revolution In everything
with which he has to do. Ways Of
doing business are not SO much i'm
proved as revolutionized. The new
things are Of different kind from the
old. The automobile il not an i'm
provement Of the horse and carriage;
1t is new creation. The new tele-
graphy uses no wires to carry its mes
sages. The X-rays allow us to see
through u board. The man who is
familiar with all this wants to in
troduce some wholly new and startling
thing when he goes into farming. He
would reform 1t and revolutionize it.
The upshot Of 1t Is likely to be kind
Of freak farming. He will grow some
specially. perhaps popcorn, pigeons,
blhsCh6t WI al "oout AhoNuNht
basket willow, Angora goats, skunks.
The point is that these small crops
and Fictitious enterprises are mere
side issues and really have no great
effect on agricultural prosperity as a
whole. They may be very profitable
here and there, but they are for the
few and special conditions. Mere
specialties cannot revolutionize great
series of businesses like the agricul-
tural businesses. that engage four
times more fixed capital than manu-
features. We have probably about
reached the limit of "fancy farming"
except as 1t may be practiced as a
mere diversion. In the upheaval of
old ideals, we have made many i'm
practical experiments, but the farmer
stands by the old things. improving
them slowly and surely year by year.
We must be near the point Of collapse
of all kinds of freak farming.-Coun-
try Life in America.

ARlZONA'S NEED.
Governor Bredie Approves ef Bullion Tax An Income from an unteuched
 Source.

''There's $l67, ,OOO for the Territory of Arizona gone to waste," said Gov ernor Brodie to the Phoenix Enter prise reporter, referring to the fact that the New York Commercial esti- mates the copper output in the ter ritory for this year at l67, 900, 900 pounds.
 ''If we had bullion tax of only one mill per pound," continued the Gov ernor, ''that would give the startling amount of $l67, 900, and their is no doubt in the world that this amount will next year be larger"
 "We ought to have it. A bullion tax is only fair. Montana has it and prOspers under it. Not that we are in such need of money, but that the mine owners are taking out fortune from Arizona soil and they are willing to pay fair tax thereon. Besides it will mean that much less to be paid by those who must work hard enough for what they have. A small bullion tax means an income from 8 source not now touched upon and coming from outside investors to a large extent it is obliged to make general taxes lighter than they are. It will be just like finding nearly $2OO, 900 per annum whenever the legislature sees fit to assess it."
