horses, cattle and tools are his goods

to the contrary. II he is right sort of
farmer, he takes a just pride in ev-
erything he raises and sells, be-
cause it comes from his own prem
ises and is a part of himself being
the fruition of his own plans his own

wise the better the quality of his
goods and ~yhe more abundant the

Eugene N. FOss Takes Oath.

Washington, April 1l.-Eugene N.
Foss, the new Democratic member of
the House from Massachusetts, who
overcame a Republican majority of
$4,000, because the voters of the dis
trict were dissatisfied with the Payne
Aldrich tariff act, took the oath of
office Friday.
AS he marched down the main aisle
to the Speakers desk, escorted by
his brother, Representative George
E. Foss of Illinois, a Republican, the
Democrats arose in a body and gave
him an ovation.
In one of the galleries was their
mother, and sitting with her were
the wives of the brothers.

average very naturally, he wants the
buyer and consumer to know where
the good stuff comes from SO what
better way than to have his farm
properly named and his products as
ISOLATED with that name. The time
is coming when all country roads will
be turnpikes that one can haul loads
over at all seasons of the year. Posi-
bly, not gravel or crushed rock turn

ed and graded and dragged that rains
will not materially affect them.
In like manner the time is coming
when most farms will have an appro-

ductlveness and the most attractive
to the eye of the traveller who passes

Carnegie Fund Denounced.

Syracuse, N. Y, ApriL-Chancel-
Tor James R. Day of Syracuse Uni
versity issued a formal statement, in
which he discusses the withdrawal
of Syracuse University from the bene-
fits of the Carnegie Foundation, and
scathingly denounced Doctor Pritch-
EFT. Doctor Day says, in part.
when the Carnegie Foundation
was established presented the claims
of Syracuse University for favorable
consideration and received the condi-
tons required. | replied that we
met all of those conditions in our
charter and management But it was
not enough. We were understood to
be Methodist university. We must
not be published in the Methodist
Year Book. We must renounce our
loyalty and deny the name of our
founders. We must betray the saint
ly men and women who gave heroi-
cally in the time of our weakness and
sometimes extreme peril before other
friends knew us.
1T was in the face of these narrow
and intolerant exactions that repli-
ed, our loyalty was not for sale at
any price, that there was not money
enough in any mans hands to buy
from us such an abiect and craven
attitude. Is there anything more
narrow and contemplate than the
administration of the Carnegie PEN
sion Fund on these terms prescribed
by Doctor Pritchett?
"Other colleges may do as they
please. II they wish to crawl in the
dirt for such a price that is their
privilege. But no university can
teach young people lofty ideas of
manhood and forget its self-respect
and honor or its loyalty and faith for
money that Judas flung away when
in remorse he went out and hanged
himself, 1t is an insult for such a
proposition to be made to Christian
institution. The Carnegie Founda-
ton is impossible to self-respecting
universities and colleges"

See a Democratic Landslide.

Jefferson City, April.-A dozen
Democratic editors from the Eighth
Congressional District met here to
talk over the situation in the district
and to predict a Democratic landslide
in the state next November. An or
ganization was perfected by the cleo
ton of E. W. Stephens, Of Columbia,
chairman, and ]. B. Wolfe, Of Califor-
mia, secretary. The Democratic state
officials and the clerks under them
attended the meeting and several Of
the officials made short talks. The
visitors were given a banquet at the
Madison Hotel, when there was more
talk and still greater promises Of
Democratic victory next fall.

NEW USE FOR POOR FARMS.
Nicholas Carter Outclassed and
Gabriel Mapping.

Manhattan, Kan, April.-Prosper-
lty has become so general in Kansas
that the poorhouses have been aban-
doned as charitable institutions and
converted into experiment stations to
add to the wealth of the farmers.
Last year many of the farms were
leased to individuals or were titled by
the superintendent and paid assist
ants. When the state Legislature
learned that the farms were not full
filling their original purpose a bill
was enacted allowing the state agri-
cultural college to take over the land
and conduct experiments in farming
for the benefit of the counties.
The experiment stations are to re-
place, in a measure, the bulletins is
sued by the college. Corn is raised
one hundred bushels to the acre, and
the feat is accomplished along the
roadsides where the farmers cannot
help see it as they drive to town. P.
f. Crabtree and G. C. Wheeler, pro-
fessors at the college, spend their
time after March 1 travelling over the
state, directing their employees who
have charge of the work at the sta
tons.
Every month the farmers are invit-
ed to attend meetings at the prosper
ity farms and inspect the progress of
the crops. These gatherings have
developed into social affairs. The
women attend, prepare dinners and
discuss fashions. The college proba-
bly, will send domestic science lectur-
ers to speak at the meetings.
