SCIENCE ON THE FARMS.

Maryland is we'll represented at the
seventh annual convention of the Asso-
citation Of American Agricultural Col
leges ard Experiment Stations, says
the baltimore American" which is
now being held at Washington. Near
ly all of these institutions are under
the direct charge OF the United States
Department of Agriculture, OF which
they form very important and very
practical part. These have been sup
ported in large measure by the govern
mcnt: for the purpose of comforting
direct benefits upon the farmers, Of
giving them results of scientific ex-
periments with soils and crops, of
assisting them in the breeding of
Of good stock and in showing them
how better methods of agricultural
work will produce better, and hence
more profitable, results.
Though education of the kind be-
gan in the United States forty years
ago, yet it is only within the last de-
cade or so that it las received the at
tention it merits. For many years an
agricultural college was looked upon
as an institution only fl. for lad who
was not considered bright enough to
send to university. He was sup
posed to be taught how to set a hen,
milk a COW, weed beets, and was gen.
orally expected to learn of his own
accord to smoke cigarettes, and pro-
badly how to chew tobacco. Colleges
in which classics and philosophy, both
mental and moral, formed the chief
Ingredients of the curriculum looked
askance at these agricultural institu-
tions, and there was very marked op-
positions, to any efforts they might
make for either government or state
aid.
A better appreciation of the prac-
tical benefits derived from these insti-
tutions has brought about a decided
change in feeling among all educators
regarding them. Ridicule has given
way to admiration, and to a general
disposition to encourage and support
them. Hence they have multiplied
in number, until now nearly every
state has one, and some have more.
The number of students at these insti-
buttons increases every year, and they
are by no means the billiards of the
country. Their studies, though they
may have an agricultural turn, do not
necessarily impel them to become far
mers. Many fields of practical scien-
tiic work are thrown open to them,
and there is at this time a great de-
mand for men trained as they have
been.
Government and state support of
such institutions, including the expert
ment stations associated with them,
meets with little opposition now. 1t
may not be true that these agencies
have brought about complete revolu-
tion in agricultural methods and agri-
cultural knowledge, but they have
made such vast improvement in both
as to add millions upon millions to the
value of the land and to the wealth Of
the country.

A HARVEST FOR LAWYERS
Over Ono Hundred Swift County Land
Cases Involve about Four Hun
dred Defendants.

In regard to the eviction cases men
toned in our last issue the Benson
Times has this to say:
Sheriff McShane passed out of his
office in blaze of glory, as it were.
On New Years morning he received
from Owen Morris Of St. Paul, the at
tOrney for Russell Ssge in this state,
aO7 summonses against various parties
living on Hands claimed by the latter
as assignee of the Hastings & Dakota
Railway Company, with orders to
serve at once. He Immediately put
four or five deputies in the field and
crowded the work under whip and spur.
There are from one to seven defendants
in the lO7 cases, making nearly 400
persons to be served altogether, and
and although he had only three days
to do it in, but few were left when his
term expired yesterday. The land in
forty cases lies in Hegber:, q some
what less humber in Westbank, about
an equal number in Swenoda, Marys-
land, Meyer and Appleton and a few
in Edison and Shible. The suits are
against parties living on lands claimed
by the old b. & D. and the reason so
many are brought no y, we understand,
is because the statute of limitation, Is
years, will soon expire as 10 most of
them. Many of those sued have not
only received filings from the govern
mept on the lands; but in many instan-
ces the patents themselves have been
issued. Our courts have been clogged
with these indemnity cases for years,
but 1t looks as though the deluge had
come now.

Annual Church ueettnr.

The annual business meeting of the
Lutheran Free church of Willmar was
held yesterday. Reports of the work
done during the past year we're heard
and approved. The same show the
congregation to be in a Aourishing
condition. Halvor Shipstead and
Ole Sletten were reelected trustees for
a term of three years; Anders John
son and Hans Rude were elected as
deacons for term of three years, tho
former reelected; Hiss Clara Moss
was reelected organist for the ensu-
ing year; Sam Rasmussen was elected
janitor; Conrad Wigaal was again
chosen "kirke-sanger." Sixteen teach
ers were elected for the Sunday
school, and the selection of the SUPER
intendent was left to. them. The mat
ter of the new church building was
not taken up at length but was left to
a special meeti og to be held Feb 26,
when bids will be received and it ie
expected that decisive action will be
taken. 1t is then expected that the
work OF securing subscriptions will
have been fully completed.

Arrested for Selling LIQUOR.

Peter Olson. the shoemaker whose
shop is located near the Hanscom
building on Benson avenue, was ar
rested last Monday on the charge of
selling Intoxicating liquor without
license. The case came up before
Justice Bitterness this forenoon. The
complaining witness was Edevart
Peterson of town of Dovre. Peterson
testified that on the third day of jan
uary he was in Olson's shop and
bought from him half pint of whiskey,
OF which he drank about half. he be-
came so intoxicated that the police
had to take charge of him. The de-
fendant then took the stand and testi-
fed that he had sold no whtskey, but
that Peterson had handed him a quar-
ter and asked him to get some whiskey
for him. The defendant then stepped
out of his shop to see what he could
do to help the complainant. He met
young man from Svea, who offered
him drink, which he took. Olson
then asked him If he could get some
Whiskey for him. The young man
took the bottle and went away for
about ten minutes, when he returned
with the whiskey, which Olson then
took In and handed to Peterson. o.
son could not remember the given
name Of the whiskey dispenser, but
said his surname was Anderson, and
that he lived about seven miles from
Willmar. The justice informed the
defendant that no matter how many
people handled the whlskey each one
was before the law guilty of violating
the statute In the case, and bound the
defendant over to the grand jury, FIX
ing the bail at $500. The case will
come before the grand jury which
meets on Jan. 26.
O!e Barnstad and Jchn Johnson,
the painter, signed the bonds and the
defendant was released.
