The kid is now growing an acre of corn in competition with 300 oth- CT boys of the county and, whether he wins first prize or not, he has a corn patch which makes visitors open their eyes and take notice. It is said to average six ears to the stalk over the whole piece, while the little fellow shyly guides his guests to several which bear ten fine ears.
 All of the buildings and even the fence-posts are of cement. This wouldn't be my private idea of a farmstead. But Texas isn't Connecti- cut. Anyway the place declares to be a sort of rural poem: the most beautiful farm in the state," is q common expression of visitors,

 Last year he raised sweet potatoes, apples, pears, peaches, berries, grapes,

It would be mighty siiiy for us Tanks in the Nutmeg state to attempt a parrot-iike imitation of this Bfdeault down in Texas. We haven't his cli- mate, nor his sort of soil, nor his opportunities for growing semi-tropi- cal produce. But his neighbors, with the same sort of climate and soil as he, aren't achieving his results. You see, brethren, it's the Know-Why and the Know How in the Man which count for more than all the accidents of climate and all the variations in dirt. Don't you know that this same Bideault would have done practically just as well if he had, fourteen years ago bought a fifty-acre farm in Con- necticut. instead of in Texas?

The eanty little FreRehinan gets q plump hundred dollars profit te the acre. Ap- parently the reason for his being able to do So is that he sees in agriculture both q science and an art. That Is, he farms In accordance with all which science can teach him of the needs and capacities of his soil, and also with all the practical skill which his Old World apprenticeship gave him. He Isn't afraid to work, though he doesn't work harder nor longer than his nelghbors. He simply works more skillfully. At the same time, he isn't too stiff -necked and stubborn to learn the science of his calling whether from experiment stations or college professors or federal farm demonstra- tors. He has got from these various sources all the help they could give him, all the information they could impart, all the suggestions they could offer. He has studied the relation of their scientific demonstrations to his particular ranch. and then has applied his knowledge with painstaktng care and trained skill.
 The results speak for themselves.

Secretary Wait in
Letter Reveals the
Situation He is in

Secretary Of State Addison Welt In q
letter TO the republican state committee
has revealed something of the puzzling
situation In which he finds himself with
regard to placing electors on the ballot in
proper form. He acknowledges receipts
of the resolutions In which the state COM
mittee objected to the six moose electors
going on the ticket as republicans. and
demanding the substitution of the six
chosen by the state committee, He says
he realizes the justice of the contention,
but claims to be powerless to act.
You know that this department has no
jurisdiction" he writes. when II comes
to the question of eliminating one set of
candidates who have been duly elected
at the primary by placing another In
their stead. While know as well as you
do the justice Of your contention. yet this
department Is powerless to change In any
way the results of the primary election.
Il have placed on my certificate to be
to the county clerks. the names
of the six men who were forwarded by
you as candidates by petition, but ] an,
confronted still with the puzsling propos.
ton as TO the two candidates who were
nominated In the primary as republicans.
I have thought It would be advisable 20
group the various presidential electors
together who were for Roosevelt, aud the
same with those who were for Taft, but
/ find under the law that am not per-
mitted to give petition candidates q party
name, hence the two republican eandi-
dates whom you named by petition will
either have to 20 on by petition and omit
the word republican" or go on a. re-
publicans and omit the word petition
If you will council with these two men
and ask them which way they prefer it
would relieve the situation somewhat for
this department. In order to have them
grouped with the other six electors they
would have to be by petition"
