THE HOMESTEAD LAW CHANGED

Congress has amended the Homestead
law allowing settlers to make final
proof within three years instead of five
as heretofe. A homesteader who de
sires to avail himself of the provisions
of the new law must shcw in final proof
by the testimony of himself and two
witnesses that he has habitable house
on his claim; that he resided in it at
least three years; that he has cultivat-
ed at least q acres for every forty en-
tered beginning with the second year
and not less than five acres, for the
third year of his entry.
No specific amount of improvements
is required under the old law, and all
settlers who make homestead entry
prior to June 6, 1912, who desire to
make proof under the old law must give
notice to the register and receiver OF
the local land office by registered letter
of their intention so to do.
A homesteader must also have COM
pleted his citizenship in order to make
final proof, if not native born.

Aids to Young Farmers.

Many of our best young men from
the farms every year, without having
formed any definite plan for life, be-
come clerks in stores, apprentices in
barber shops, bartenders in saloons,
etc.. and when they once get started
in these lines of occupation it is diff
cult to induce them to return to the
farm. There is little opportunity for
promotion in their new occupation.
Had these young men. been induced to
attend the agricultural school of the
University and and receive the in
struction and inspiration of such men
as Dr. Henry, DR.. Russell, and Profs.
Moore, Whitson, Harrington, Alexan-
der and Humphrey, and others, they
would have remained upon the farm
and in time they would become indie
pendent, owning farms of their own,
we'll stocked, and would be valuable
asset to the state of Wisconsin.
We should use our influence to have
agricultural experiment farms located
in every county in the state, under the
supervision of the Agricultural De-
partment of the University, and work
to the end that the government should
pay part of the expenses, the state part
and and the county part. The person
in charge of these experiment farms
should be an expert, ready to counsel
and advise with all the farmers in the
county on the rotation of crops, on the
needs of the soils, where soils have run
out, examine them and inform the
farmer what element is wanting; show
him how to care for stock and how to
prune and spray orchards.
At present the various bulletins is
sued by the University are too techn-
zeal for the ordinary farmer to under
stand. Nearly half of our farmers in
upper Wisconsin are foreign born.
They cannot read these bulletins; still
they pay large share of the taxes of
the state. Are they not entitled to
some consider alton? If such a plan
were successfully carried out, it would
be great help for developing agri-
culture on scientific basis.
By united action on the part of the
business men of the state a healthy
public sentiment can be form ed in favor
of such plan.

Substance and Shadow.

AS for the McGovern temporary
Craftsmanship episode, it is extremely
difficult to see where either Roosevelt
or McGovern could reasonably expect
to profit by the operation.
If Roosevelt was so egregiously and
wildly misintormed as to regard his
little dole to McGovern as sop to La
Toilette, he must by now be painfully
aware of his miscue.
McGovern has, for the sake of the
passing trumpery distinction of being
nominated for something he could not
get, estranged the bulk of the vote in
Wisconsin which put him where he is in
state politics.
E,op's fable of the dog crossing a
stream, who dropped the bone he was
carrying in his mouth to grab at the
reflection of one in the water, is a good
apologize for Mr.. McGovern's medita-
ton. He can work out new version
of an old proverb, "a bone in the mouth
is worth two in the water"
Judging from the talk in La Toilette
quarters in this state, Mr.. McGovern's
goose is cooked in Wisconsin, and done
brown at that. A man who GO, h m self
elected delegate-at-large through La
Toilette votes, and then threw La Fol-
lette at the first test, must have a
IF L0 oIhl.~o&:arr 0f
representative to those he was elected
to represent.
Perhaps MIR. McGovern holds that he
represents himself. In which case his
constituency is not large one.-Mil-

Price Cuts a Figure.

A letter in Hoard's Dairyman, writ.
ten from Germania, Wyoming lin the
Shoshone irrigation project) states
that alfalfa is worth only $500 per ton
there. The census figures give the
value of alfalfa in Wisconsin as S12.49
in 1909, and it is worth still more now.
And we grow more to the acre than
they do. This applies to the various
irrigation projects.
