A state farm for tramps is pro-
posed by Joseph G. Baldwin, Jr., of
the New York state board of chart
ties, and he intends to place the mat
ter before the legislature. His meth
cd is to have tramps detained for a
long period and made to work, rem
dering the institution self support
ing. Baldwin believes tramps will
eventually leave the state rather
than work. The basic idea is sound,
whatever is to be said of the state
farm detail of the plan, says the Bos-
ton Advertiser. The only way to meet
the tramp evil is by making the
tramp work even If he Is detained
but twelve hours. 1t is a problem in
Massachusetts quite as much as in

II you want live town, says an
exchange, push the hustler. Few
towns are without men who have
more push and energy than means
to carry out their plans. Perhaps
the hustler may occasionally make a
mistake: possibly he may overreach
in his efforts to build up the town.
Better thus than not at all. If you
have such man in town keep him
going, help him push. He may be-
come weary at times and should be
encouraged. Don't get jealous and
throw cold water upon his efforts.
1t is more difficult to build up than
to tear down. That is why so many
are engaged in destroying what the
few are creating. A half dozen
active men in town are worth more
than 100 passive men. No atten-
tion should be given nominal rich
man Of town; they are not usually
liberal. 1t takes more enterprise
than money to build up town. Get
behind the hustler and keep push
ing; don't pull back. If you can't
push crawl out Of sight and sit
down. If you can't say a good word
say nothing. 49,.

The fur trade, once the principal
industry of the great northwest, still
holds an important place and it is
also up to date. In earlier days furs
were brought to the market mainly
by human carriers and dog teams.
Now modern improvements are util-
lied. The story from Winnipeg that
steamer of the Hudson Bay Com
pany has been wrecked in the bay,
and that a cargo of furs worth ST.
100000 has been lost, signifies the
magnitude of the business done
and the extent of the disaster, and
also the methods now employed. The
daring adventures of the early part
OF the last century never dreamed Of
running steamboats, for such pur-
poses.

The recent growth of Japan along
lines of occidental civilization
has not been healthful physically or
morally. The spread OF Leprosy
among her people-so great already
that the government takes every
precaution to conceal the facts of
dts e1istency-is becoming known
to the outside world. The physical
endurance of her soldiers, so often
cited as an argument in favor of
vegetarianism, is found on investi-
cation to he slight. 1t is true that
the sanitary and hospital work in
the field at the time Of the Russian
war was wonderfully efficient and
praiseworthy, and gave rise to the
impressions that the Japanese forces
lost remarkably small percentage
by disease; but foreign experts re-
siding in Japan report that the Jap.
anese have very little recuperative
power, and that the ravages of dis.
ease resulting from that war have
really been enormous, though long
deferred.

Long ago 1T was a common prac-

abroad. for study at European uni
yersittes, at time when our own
institutions were not so we'll equip
ped as they are now and when 1t
was almost necessary to study in
Europe In order to attain the high
est grade OF scholarship. There.
Is less need Of such movement to-
day, If indeed. there is any general
need of It; but the movement shows
no sign Of being abandoned. Ameri-
can students form an appreciate
and increasing element at many
great continental universities, while
the monumental muniflcence of Ce-
Gil Rhodes has assured In perpetu-
ity the attendance OF a large num,,er
at Oxford. Meantime a correspond
Ing movement in the other direction
has become manifest. Many Euro
pean students now come to Ameri-

AT Portland, Oregon, the federal
government has filed thirty-five suits
against the Oregon & California
Railroad Company, the present own
ers of the Oregon and California,
and more than 100 others, individ-
uals and private corporations. These
suits are to recover from the rail-
road and their grantees an aggre-
gate of 353,2SS acres of land within
the old Oregon and California land
grant. The lands are valued at over
100000. These suits are sup
Elementary to those against the Ore
gon and California and the Southern
Pacific on the grounds that those
companies failed to dispose of their
granted lands to actual settlers at
1925 an acre.
