Institutes Help Farmers.

Farm products of New Jersey
amounted to twenty-six million dol
lars eight years ago, while last year
they footed up fifty-two million. This
great increase in the vnlue Of the pro
auctions OF New Jerseys farms is due
largely, according to Franklin Dye,
secretary of the State Board of Agri-
culture, to the education of the farm
ers in the principles of scientific farm
ing. taught in the farmers institutes
and in the State Agriculture College
at New Brunswick. Mr.. Dye says
these institutes are doing immense
G bod in teaching the farmers how to
make the best and most profitable use
OF their opportunity. Every subject
connected with the tillipg of the soil,
the raising of cattle and other animals,
fruit growing, market gardening, fer
tilizing, poultry raising. forest cnti
walton, milk and butter, milk and but
ter products, aud so forth, is discuss
ed at these meetings by experts. The
meetings are largely attended and
much valuable Information in this
way is disseminated. Under the in
structions given in these institutes
and by the State Agricultural College
New Jersey farmers are becoming
among the most intelligent and sue
cessfnl in the country, and Mr.. Dye
says there is scarcely any limit to the
increase in the production Of onr
farms that may be effected by intelli-
gent aud scientific cultivation.

Hunterdon's new Sheriff IL the frat
county official who comes under the
provisions of the new salary law pass
cd two years ago. Under this law the
Sheriff IN Hunterdon receives an an
nal salary of 81, $50 and liz allowed IA
deputy, whose salary as fixed by the
County Court, will be 81, 900 year
All the fees collected are turned over
to the county and the county pays all
expenses Just how much the county
will be the gamer by the new arrange
ment il problematical, but it is
thought that there will be substantial
balance in favor of the county. One
feature of the new arrangement IL
that all business has to he paid for IN
advance, as the county will make no
provision for the serving of writs and
other duties, which the Sheriff now
charges aud collects when the bust
ness is closed up. or ut any time later
when il suits the convenience of the
parties Interested.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION BY THE
G0VERNnR

The honor of being citizen of this
great republic would, of itself, be
sufficient cause for annually setting
| apart, in accordance with custom,
day for thanksgiving and prayer. But
the people of New Jersey have much
else to be thankful for, Their church
relations, their free schools, their
good roads, their unique stua-
ton, their clean State govern
ment, their picturesque hills, their
unequalled sea coast, their etiici
ent municipal governments, their
vast mining, manufacturing aud in
dustrial interests, and their high av-
erage Intelligence, all give cause for
unbounded gratitude to the Giver of
All Good. Beside all this, our fields
have been fertile, our homes happy,
our transportation facilities satisfac-
tory, the wages of labor fair, and the
price of the product of our farms aud
OF the output of our factories remun-
erative. When to all this is added
splendid civic spirit, which is abroad
in our public life. we can indeed be
grateful for the Providence over.rul
ing it all. On every account, our lot
may truly be said To he east in pleas
ant places.
Therefore. |, John Franklin Fort,
Governor of the State of New Jersey,
do designate Thursday, the twenty
sixth day of November instant. as
day to be observed for general thanks
giving and prayer, and upon that day
| recommend that all business cease
aud that the people gather in their re-
spective churches and other places for
public worship, or in their homes III
private, to make fitting acknowledge
ment TO Almighty God ofhis unbound
ed benefactions to us as Nation, State
and individuals.
Given under my hand and seal, at
the Executive Chamber. in the City of
Trenton. this thirteenth day of No
vember, in the year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and eight,
and of the Independence of the
United States the one hundred and
thifty-third.

CAN'T HUNT DEER YET

In sustaining the conviction of Will
liam Grace and Andrew Snyder for
killing or attempting to kill deer. the
court of errors aud n ppeas last week
upheld the legislation of 1906, which
extended the close season for deer for
three years from that time. Grace
and Snyder. with many other sports
men held to the belief that the close
season for deer had expired, and in
order to test the question they went
hunting, and voluntary surrendered
themselves for arrest.
BY writ of eertiorari there was
brought up To the supreme court for
review Section 10 of the fish aud game
net of 1906, which reads: ct shall
be unlawful for three years. after the
passage Of this net for any person To
gun for or To take, or attempt to take,
ininfe or destroy, any wild deer. :"
Counsel for Grace aud Snyder ar
gned that this meant three years from
the date of the passage of the original
fish and game act of April IA, 1903, on
the theory that an act which il amend
cd if IA to all things occurring there
after, to he considered as having al.
| ways been part of the original stat
ute.
The supreme court, however, held
TINT the three year limitation meant
three years after the date of the APP
proval of the amendatory statute, be-
cause To hold otherwise. would have
made the act entirely nusatory. in
in fact have expired before the enact
ment Of the amendatory Legislation.
In this view the court Of errors and
appeals coucarred.
