COOPERATIVE DEMONSTRATION
WORK.

Cooperative demonstration work, as
conducted in farming operations under
the supervision of the agricultural de-
partment, has done wonders for the
farmers. There are few perhaps
who will not admit it, but the fact
that revolution is taking place in
farming methods cannot be contro-
verted The demonstrations are val
liable in bringing the best, thoroughly
tried and proven methods of tillage,
seed selection, cultivation, ETC., to
each community in a practical way,
and in actually showing the advan-
tages of the approved methods.
Mr.. L. ]. Huffman and others have
done a great work for this county as
agents of the government in demon
stration work. In seed selection alone
it has been clearly demonstrated that
crops can be materially assisted.
This is a progressive age, and farm
ing is becoming more and more an
exact science. 1t is indeed a foolish
man who cannot be shown the merits
of the efforts being put forth by the
agricultural department in the inter
est of the farmer.

CAMPBELL AND THE RAILROADS.

There are some editors of Texas
papers who, when the divine affla-
tus" fails to affiliate, so to speak, and
they lack material for timely and
ineisive editorial, turn with gleeful
confidence to the subject of a two
cents railroad fare and what Cover
nor Thomas Mitchell Campbell is 60
ing to do next year to induce the Tex
as legislature to enact reductive legis--
lation. The woods-or the papers, we
should say-are full of such articles
and many people are led to imagine
the governor of Texas as fairly yearn-
ing for the time when he can open
fire on the three-cents rate. We ven
ture the assertion that not one of
these editors has authority from the
executive to say what Governor Camp
bell purposes, as to railway passenger
rates. Some of them might stand on
safer ground if they would read the
San Antonio platform and see what it
says about two or a three cents fare.
G1~srHsf-Ca<apb eH-Hay hold adj
vanced, very advanced ideas on some
questions. Let us grant that he does.
But this may be said with truth for
him: He is level-headed, patriotic and
fair-minded and he wants to see every
legitimate interest and investment in
Texps in healthy and prosperous con-
dition He has no grudge against any
thing legitimate and helpful, and if
he doubts the wisdom or justice of
lower railroad rates than those now
in force he will be the last man to
urge or suggest reduction. He will
do what he thinks is right. Further
more, he will give careful and con-
scientious consideration to all matters,
that. in his judgment, may appropri-
ately be brought to legislative atten-
ton. His last two years as governor
of Texas are just ahead of him. He
has no higher ambition than to so sug-
gest and administer that when he is
through with the duties of his present
station he may be remembered as a
man who was courageous enough to
face and perform every duty, but
who kept foremost in his mind the
welfare of this people and of every
legitimate interest and investment.
There is a whole lot of untimely and
foolish talk about what Mr. Campbell
has in mind Wait and see. Two
years more will find many people
with much higher appreciation and
understanding of the present governor
