In much Of the western territory
there is now no further excuse
for neglecting the dairy business for
the reason that there is no creamery
near by. The cream separated on the
farm finds very ready market at
almost any railway town, where it
will be tested and paid for by the local
agent Of some central and distant
creamery, to which it will be shipped
by rail two or three times each week.
Under this plan the dairyman gets his
pay for his cream each time when it is
delivered.

Many farm Institutes in the west are
interesting the farm boys Of their coun-
ties by offering liberal premiums for
the best corn grown by the boys, to be
exhibited at the institutes to be held
next winter. This Is most worthy and
sensible thing to do. 1t Is always easier
to interest the boys in any line Of pro-
gressive agriculture than 1t Is the old
men.

1t is a good idea to have the farm
named and the name so painted on the
barn or elsewhere that travellers can
see it-this If the farm is kept up in
good shape. But If it Is down at the
heels better not advertise the owner,
but let the passerby think it is some
tenant farm.

All land, river bottoms and the like,
which is subject to periodical overflow
is far more proftably kept as perma-
nent blue grass pasture than to attempt
to cultivate 1t and take the chance of a
crop of corn or other grain once in two
or three years. Such blue grass pas
ture when properly used will pay lar
ger net return each year than the aver
age acre of the farm which is cropped.
Assuming the season to be a favorable
one for the growth Of grass, an acre Of
such blue grass will produce at least
So worth Of beef, and this is almost all
net profit.

A catch crop Of soy beans or cowpeas
sown with the last cultivation Of the
corn crop is not a success, the growth
of these crops seriously interfering
with the development and maturing Of

A new ship, the Minnesota. recently
sailed from a Pacific coast port for the
occident carrying 10000 tons of Amer
lean produce and merchandise. The
great capacity of such vessel is best
understood when we say that it Is capa

ty-five tons Of hay, eight tons of pork,
four tons of beef, two tons of butter,
twenty tons of corn and ten tons of
oats and potatoes.

A great fuss has been made over the
discovery Of a very large diamond in
South Africa, said to be worth a mat
ter Of $2O00,O00, but there is a county
up in north central Wisconsin, which
only few years ago was a wilderness
of brush and pine stumps, which the
past year sold dairy products of a
value of over 100000, and, what is
better, will do it every year right along.
When the lumbermen left it, it was a
diamond in the rough, sure enough.

to her In a sack of coffee. There were

THE COLLEGE BOYS ON THE FARM

THE COLLEGE BOYS ON THE FARM.
We have noted a score or more of in
stances the past year where farmers
sons after taking a course at some
agricultural school return to the old
farms and put into practice the knowl-
edge obtained. In almost every case
these boys make as radical change in
farm conditions as does the introduc-
ton Of good blood into the stockyard.
They raise bigger and better crops
right off. They pay much attention to
the matter of seed. They plan and put
into operation a proper rotation OF
crops. They organize local farmers
clubs, are invaluable helpers in all
farm institute work, are wide awake
and progressive in all that pertains to
agriculture as a business and chock
full Of a contagious enthusiasm. The
mossbacks have to come to them to
learn, for grandpa's way can't argue
with better stock and bigger crops as
evidence Of the value Of such a cole
giate training. They are getting In their
good work In nearly every farming
community and are the evangelists Of
that better and more progressive type
Of agriculture which bids fair to come
to all the country.

THE RAILROADS AND THE PEOPLE.

In the present controversy being
waged between the people and the
railroads over the matter Of transpor-
tation it is not so much a matter Of
rates as it Is discriminating charges,
the favoring Of certain towns and inter-
ests and the consequent discrimination
against other communities and individ-
uals. While the railroads are and
should be protected In an unquestion-
ed title to their respective properties,
there is this difference between them
and a purely private business In that
the public. having bequeathed them
the most valuable franchises in the
whole country and with such fran
chises bestowed extraordinary powers
and privileges to promote and secure
great public utility and necessity,
has thereby acquired an inalienable
and important interest in such roads,
which gives it every right to demand
absolute fairness and impartiality in
their management. This right the peo-
pie have been rather backward and
slow to assert and possibly never
would were there no just causes for
complaint. AS it is, the people are
waking up, and such peaceable and
equitable adjustment will be secured
without doubt as will insure entire i'm
Partially In the administration of the
roads. Their power is so omnipotent
and so far reaching in the making or
the marring of the business success of
communities and individuals that moth
ing short Of absolute equity for all will
ever satisfy the American people.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1905-03-29

The greater portion Of the prairie
west may as well accept and face the
fact that for half a century at least
the dirt road will be the common high
way of the country. This dirt road is
for a period Of at least eight months
in the year the best road in the world
and the money and work spent on the
roads should be with reference to
making it as passable as possible for
the other four months. This will be
best accomplished by thorough drain
age and frequent leveling. The $4,000
a mile macadam highway is an i'm
possibility from financial point alone.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1905-03-29

No one thing will help the cause Of
good roads more than the development
of local public spirit among the men,
bers of the community which Is direct
ly interested In such improved high
ways. AS 1t Is too often now, small
break in bridge which any man could
fix In FIVE minutes causes the discover
er to travel three miles to get road
boss to fix It ut an expense to the dis
trict of a dollar or more. The public
spirit which we refer to would have
made the man fix II himself and made
no fuss about II. Some day men who
own good farms-some are already do
ing twill take real pride In the
highways which border their farms and
win cheerfully give Of their labor such
worn as Is needed to keep them In
good condition. A good example In this
line n a great factor In influencing any
community, for II is true that good
example ID Just as contagious as a bad
one.

Natures method Of restoring lost fer
tility to WORKOUT lands is through the
medium of grass ard trees. 1t is q
slow process and may be seen in OPP
Grafton on countless thousands Of acres
in the east and the south on lands
which were once wheat and cotton
fields. On most of this land she works
by the tree method, covering these de-
pleted and starved acres with confer
and deciduous trees, with vine and
shrub. Little by little humus and fer
tility are restored to the soil, and at
the end Of seventy-five years the forest
may be again removed and man go in
to the soil robbing business again.
