LAUGH AND THE WORLD LAUGHS
WITH YOU"

The poet was right-there is moth
ing SO catching as joyous laughter.
Next to a kiss a laugh is the most
popular thing in the world. The sup
ply of kisses is limited, being largely
controlled by a fair but capricious
trust. The supply Of laughs, how
ever, is practically unlimited so long
as you don't get too grouchy to look
for them. One 49, for the re-
markable success OF The Chicago

Of the value of kindly, wholesome
fun. The Alternating Currents" col
umn of S. f. Kiser, the humorist and
poet, is one of the brightest things in
American journalism. And there is
always a smile or a good laugh in
Ralph Wilder's cartoons, bringing a
cherry greeting as you pick up the
paper each morning.
But it is in The Sunday Record.
Herald that one finds the most
chuckles. The colored comic section

and these amusing illustrations are
free from the vulgarity and mis-
chievous suggestions that have barred
so many comic sections from refined
homes. Then there is always a lot

THE WAY TO DO IT.

The project of the North Dakota
Hundred Dollars-an-Acre association
to establish five hundred experimental
farms throughout that state is EN-
phatically the way to do 1t. The plan
is so practical, so helpful, so certain
to have an important influence on
the rapid agricultural development
of the state hat there should be nc
hesitation in supplying the neces'
sary funds to get it started and to
maintain it.
The idea is to give the farmer an
object lesson in the benefit Of sci
entific methods that he can't help
seeing and understanding. He is not
asked to read books or pamphlets,
in which language more or less
technical is used, and whose advice
he would be likely to ignore. But a
model farm of five or ten acres is to
be operated in his immediate neigh
borhood, so that from day to day and
week to week he can watch what Is
done and see the results. The expert
in charge is there to answer his
questions, to discuss knotty points
with him, to consult and advise.
Moreover, the North Dakota plan
is to adjust the plan to the small
farmer without reference to the man
who operates a big acreage. The ten
dency in that state with it's once
large bonanza farms" is decidedly
toward smaller farms and greater
Investigation of crops. This is as
it should be, and to accelerate
this tendency. For that reason the
object lesson spread before the
farmers will be for the man who
tills his W land. They will help
him to make a success Of what is
now perhaps more or less of a fail
ure, or, if it is a success, to make
it a greater one.
This is the sort of thing We ought
to have in Minnesota. We have made
a beginning with experimental
farms, but it is only a beginning.
We need many mere of them, so
that the gospel of gooo farming may
be brought in a practical way into
the immediate neighborhood Of the
farmers.
One obstacle to the rapid exten.
sion of the experimental farm sys-
tenn is the dearth of experts to put
in charge; but this is a lack which
every year grows less. as the agri-
cultural schools turn out their gradu-
For the young man with a
bent for agriculture there is no bet
ter or wider opportunity Of gainful
usefulness than that opening up for
experts in practical instruction by

Pierce Doesn't Want Roswell Bench
He Wants Idaho.

from W: f. Pierce relative to the enteh-
sion Of the b. & t. electric line to kos-

aition was threshed out in friendly
discussion.
Mr.. Pierce stipulated that the people
of Caldwell and Roswell along the line
give his company street franchises in
Caldwell, terminal grounds in KosAeli
and the right Of way between the two
cities, and grade the road bed. The ez-
pense of grading is estimated at $35, 900.
Mr.. Pierce made no pledge to build the
road, and was decided the terms were
too indefinite, as the reorle interested
would have to be assured the road will
be built before they agree to 60 to the
expense and trouble necessary to carry
out their Fart Of the contract.
