The Harvest Season.

ahead Of the ordinary year. IN spite
OF the big disappointment on the
cotton crop. This cannot be due
wholly TO increase Of population on
Western farms. Il must be still
more the result OF gradual adoption
Of scientific methods. \ few years
ago the farmers were laughing at
agricultural colleges and at farming
by professors. They thought they
had the only correct method OF ag-
riculture handed down by their
srandtathers and no one could add
to or subtract from this sum OF
knowledge. Better farming. special
trains. and the patient work OF eS-
pertinent stations have shown the
farmer that he vas wrong. The
one great thing still needed is more
Eys,en. The majority OF farmers
still lay out their work in e hap
hazard fashion. They do not have
regular 5tme table FOR shei<
operations. There Is q general fail
