Uncle Joe on
College Course
Speaker Says it is Not Necessarily
Fatal to Bright Young
Man.

NE WHAVEN. Conn, May l3-"To a
bright young man who has anything in
him, a college course is not necessarily
fatal TO success, That is my view of it,
says Speaker Cannon in a discussion in the
Yale News today of the value of a college
education.
He continues
The common school and the high school
give the average individual at least fair
equipment for practical success in bust
ness or in the various calllngs that men
follow who live by the sweat of their faces,
That is about all that the average man
Will utilize.
There Is always question as to whether
the average student will survive the spoil
ing effects of a college course,
The human animal, on the average, is
not worth his salt II he is incapable OF
making his own way.
The greatest rewards come in business,
not in politics. good business man is
much better off than poor politician. The
business man has better chance for ad-
vancement and receives great remunera-
lion"

1t is most important that poultry should
be fresh, and this condition can be judged
by the fresh, sweet smell and also by the
absence Of moisture from the outside skin
The prmenesa of the flesh can generally
be told by the plumpness of the flesh,
which shows its elasticity when 1t is
pressed, Many poultry dealers have trick
Of breaking the breast bone in such WAY
that the appearance of the breast is greatly
improved.
Allowance must be made for birds thus
treated; in fact, the best plan is to judge
the condition by the thin flap which lies
beyond the breast bone and under the tail
tine part which in a goose goes by the
name OF apron" If this has a thin trans
parent appearance the bird is in poor condl-
ton, but If it is thick, firm and fat, the
bird is at its best,
The age OF the birds can be told pretty
accurately by the condition of the breast
bone which is continued toward the tail
in piece of grstle, When the bird is
young tie gristle is soft, but as
the bird grows older the gristle be-
comes harder until in an old bird II is al

is most difficult thing to get farm

spirits in every community who take
the lead and who follow progressive

This applies to irrigation as we'll as

but about crops" the reporter
asked.
''The crops" was the reply, care
always good on irrigated lands and
the indications are that all farm pro-
ducts will bring high prices this year.
Dry farming has been carried OH un-
der conditions unusually unfavorable
the rainfall throughout the state hav-
ing been much below the average. This
condition is not peculiar to Montana,
but exists in Alberta, Monitoba, and
in all the great grain growing states
Of the west. The crops in Montana, l
think, are in better condition and will
show better average yield than in
amy OF those states or provinces, but
OF course the production would have
been much greater had there been a
normal rainfall. Light rainfall and
hot winds made the raising of profit
able crops uncertain in some sections
OF Montana, but recent rains have
helped the conditions materially.
''This year has been a severe test
of scientif! dry farming and it Will be
found that there will be few entire
failures where proper methods have
been followed. Many new settlers
have no crops planted this year. They
have come prepared to stay year be-
fore getting returns from their lands
and are engaged in getting ready for
the fall planting. AS a rule they are
instructions Of the Montana Agricul-
tural Experiment station. A season
OF light rainfall accentuates the ne
cessity for following those methods.
"On the whole crop conditions in
Montana are more favorable than in
adjoining provinces and states and
look to see large increase in the
grain yield of 1910 over that Of 1900.
When the reports from the sub-sta-
tons of the Montana experiment sta
ton and Of the railroad and from in
dividual farmers shall have been re-
ceived for the year, expect that they
will demonstrate that the scientific

ON THE TAFT BAND WAGON.

Politicians are awakening to the
fact that one of the biggest factors
in the coming congressional camp
aign will be the spreading popularity
Of William Howard Taft. Former
Gov. Franklin Murphy, who, in OPP
posing John kean for election to the
senate, might have been expected to
give voice to insurgent views, has re-
allied that the chief hope of cOndi-
date in the coming campaign is to be
more strongly and enthusiastically in
favor of President Taft than the
other fellow.
Referring to the quite, restless
power with which the president has
handled his great burden of national
problems, Murphy says:
He started out to get things, to
have laws made, to fulfill Repub-
lican promises, to meet the pub.
lie demands, and in this great
work he must reconcile factions
and get peoples heads together
without knocking-must hold IT.
resistibly to his own safe course,
and draw the extremists from
every direction and persuade
them to work together with him.
Abraham Lincoln is the only
other statesman this country has
ever produced with Taft s power
of Harvesting wild horses into
steady and vigorous team.
From this statement of his opinion
regarding the Taft administration,
expressed in response to the request
of the Republican state committee Of
Now Jersey, Mr.. Murphy makes it
VERY plain that lie believes the main
hope of all Republicans in the COM
ing compaign is to stand by the rec
ord of President Taft.
From Indiana comes the word that
any Republican who does not strong
ly support the record made by the
president stands little chance of cleo
ton. Reports from other con-
tested territories are to the same
effect. Col. Roosevelt may make
speeches in favor of certain lndivid-
nals, either Republicans or insurgent,
but the test of Republicanism in the
coming campaign will be a stanch
LOYALTY to President Taft. Most OF
the politicians realize this, and are
fastening to get on the band wagon.

Although the amount of rainfall in

the dry land farmer who farms by the
