A Rooster That Rul..

IT is not often that barnyard fow

such is the case with a large Massa
chusetts red rooster belonging tc
Charles Davis of st. John avenue. A
few weeks ago Mr.. Davis was attract

half-grown setter pup lie is training
lie found that the dog had been driv
en- into a corner and was being say,
agely attacked by big cock, and be
fore he could interfere in behalf OF
the pup 1t had been pretty heavily
marked by the ROSTERS spurs.
Since that time Red as he has come
to be called, has become a neigh.
borhood bully and refuses to al.
low pigs or dogs to come with,
In the grounds under his rule.
Curiously enough, dogs will not fight
back, but actually run from his as.

probably thrashed more OF them than
any other bird in the city.-Kansas

COLLEGE MEN eoR r4s FARM.
Result Of Change In Economic and
Social Conditions.

The character of farming is chang
ing rapidly. II is coming more and
more to be an efficient, profitable and
attractive business. With here and
there an exception, in the past we
nave not given much consecutive
thought to the misunderstanding like
as much as the merchant gives to his
business or the doctor to his. It has
been so easy" a business that un.
trained men could succeed in IT, The
change In economic and social condi.
tons Is breaking up the tradition.
Farming Is becoming more dlfficult,
and the old methods must go. In the
future only the well.informed and eff.
cient-thinking man can succeed; that
Is, only the educated man.
The country is to offer other advan.
tsges to the educated man than mere.
ly to be a good farmer There are
good opportunities for leadership on
public questions-probably better op.
portunity and with less competition
than in the great cities. The fact that
city representation is increasing In the
legislatures should make the able
country representative more of a
marked man. The growth of the insti.
tute movement, of the grange and 9th.
er rural organizations, gives fresh op,
portunity to develop leadership OF a
high order.
il would seem that, by the nature
OF the progress we are making, the
college man must go to the farm. In
fact, college men have been going
back from the beginning of the agri.
cultural education movement. Stats.
tics show that large percentage
actually have returned to farming,
and this In spite of the fact that
cities have been growing with marvel.
Gus rapidity, and that the whole sys,

pertinent stations has been developing

limitations under which the agricul.

1t is little less than marvellous what

portion of students of the leading ag
ricultural colleges, who now engage in
agricultural pursuits, is greater than
students of that of colleges of law or
of other professional colleges who fol

now questions the value of education
