THE NEW AGRICULTURE.

Burbank. the plant wizard, has ac-
complished wonders because he has
added al the science available to no
native ability and practical expert
ence. The results which he has
achieved IN plant cultivation can be
approximately By any farmer who ap-
plies the same methods to the cul-
tivation Of the ordinary crops.
The transformation in manufacture
ing brought about BY modern inyen-
tons is no greater than the new az
riculture" will bring to pass on the
farm.
In a LARGE way the new agriculture
is but another phase Of the conser-
walton movement. It means the eli
mination Of waste and the utilization
OF the full possibilities Of the soil. In

particular variety OF soil. III culuYat
ing in a manner to conserve moisture,

results.
Give the ordinary man pile OF
lumber, saw and Ratchet, and he may
succeed in time in building a prett,

70 disclose the source Of his informa-

ing the story had been told 10 him
in confidence and that he would
spend the rest Of his days IN prison
before he would violate the conf
dence Of a friend. The threats of the
committee to send him to Jail for

Characteristic of the newspaper pro

ethics as high as that which governs

uninformed the newspaper man is a
fellow who blabs all he knows. and a

is not safe to impart that which, you
would not have proclaimed from the
hOuse-tops. The reverse is true:
there is no man 10 whom you can
more safely intrist q secret in con-
