BETTER FARMING IDEALS.

The lecture campaign, known as
the Department Of Farmers Institute,
says the Baltimore Sun, which was
conclud ed last eek, covered during
tie two months tour every county
in ryland, and it is estimated
reached directly something more
than 10000 persons connected with
the farming industries of the state.
The "Institute' consisted ola special
ly fitted up passenger car, which car
ried from point to point a corps of
expert lecturers upon practical sub
jects pertaining to the farming in
dustries.
The science of agriculture is the
very oldest of the applied sciences;
but it is yet in process of develop
ment, and it would be no wildly ex-
aggerated statement to say that it
Is but in primary static of possible
development. Within the past fifty
years a wonderful progress has hAen
achieved in the farming arts both as
to methods of cultivation and in the
improvement of the quality OF pro-
ducts. The time has arrived zen
it may fairly be said that farming 3

ed up. Farming is today the chief
industry of the world, as it was 5000
years ago and as it will be 5000
years hence. But there will never
be time during the next 5000 years
when the farmer will not need to be
on the watch for better way of do
ing things.

OIL TRUST WOULD
COMPREHENSIVE
WITH MISSOURI
Suggests Arrangement Whereby
State Will Have Half Con-
troll of Company.

JEFFERSON CITY. Mo, Feb. I'm
a brief filed yesterday with the State
Supreme Court by attorneys for the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana, the
court is petitioned to appoint two trus-
tees who shall control the oil business
transacted by the oil company in Mis-
souri,.
After setting forth reasons why the
sale of oil should not be outlawed, the
brief says:
This respondent is willing to place
itself and its business under the vigil
ant eye of the State and subject to the
supervision and control of this court
if it will aid in the solution of a differ
ent situation"
1t is therefore proposed, in lieu of the
judgment of custer against the Indiana
Company, that:
"A new Missouri corporation be
formed which shall take over all the
Missouri property of the Indiana COM
pany and succeed to al! its business in
this State. All the stock of the new
company, less enough to qualify direc-
tors, shall be issued to and for four
years standing in the names of two
persons as trustees. one selected by the
State and the other by the Indiana
Company, both selections to be ap-
proved by this court"

STANDARD LOSES
JERSEY SUIT; FINE
POINTS DRAWN
In Fight Against Award U. S.
Supreme Court Settles Acci-
dent Responsibility Question.

WASHINGTON. Feb. deciding
against the Standard Oil Company in
the damage ease of Edward Anderson,
the Supreme Court of the United States
yesterday determined delicate points
re ~arding responsibility for accidents.
A. serson, while employed by a master
stevedore in loading oil on the Susque-
hanna In Bayonne, N. j., in September,
1904. vas badly hurt. He sued the
Standard, which owned the vessel and
oil, and was awarded 1880, which the
Court of Appeals sustained.
The oil company resisted the suit,
holding the stevedore responsible. An
derson's injury was due to the care
lessness OF the man operating the
winch used in the loading of the ves-
sci. The winchman was the regular
employee of the company, but at the
time of the accident was assisting the
stevedore.
Justice Moody said:
The winchman was undoubtedly in
r. general employ of the oil company.
In order to relieve the company from
the results of the legal relation of
master and servant it must appear that
that relation, for the time, had been
suspended and a new like relation be-
tween the winchman and the steve
dore had been created. The evidence
does not warrant the conclusion that
this changed relation had come into
existence"

SPECIAL SESSION OF GRAND
JURY FOR B. AND L. INQUIRY.

CAMDEN, Feb. 2.-As foreman of the
Camden county grand jury, DR.. Frank
o. Stem has issued a call to that body
to assemble at the Court House here
on Friday morning in extraordinary
session. 1t is stated upon good author
ity that the inquisitors will probably
consider some of the phases of the State
Mutual Building and Loan Association,
row in the hands of receivers. The fact
that the grand jury has been called in
the absence of the prosecutor estab-
fishes a precedent in Camden. No
formal complaint has been made against
anyone connected with the association.
