A RELIC OF FEUDALISM.

1t is not ut all surprising that an
effort is being made to eXpunge from
the statutes of Texas. the senselesS. bar
barouS. and unjust laws relating TO the
property of married women. and to sub
Stitute in its place something better.
What is really surprising is that such
laws ever had place in the codes of mod
ern nations. 1t is hard to see why half
the property accumulated during mar
riage should not belong to the wife. 1t is
still harder TO see why a man should
have absolute control of his wife's earn
ings. or why he should have control Of
the income derived from her property.
Texas husbands as Il class may be as
good. and gentle. and chivalrOus as any
on earth-or a little more 80. Cnhapplly
it is not altogether a question of the
goodness Of the husband. 1t is a simple
matter of right. Also it is in those rare
let us make haste to say extremely rare
cases where the husband has neither
the goodness to deal fairly with his
wife. nor the wisdom to deal wisely with
her property. IN this matter Texas needs
to get out Of the middle ages and into
the twentieth century.

A DESERVING APPLICANT.

The Herald takes pride in announcing
that it is heartily in favor of Hon.
Frank rabbi for the appointment as col
lector of customs of the district of Bra
ZOs Santiago. AS reported in The Herald
Saturday, Mr.. Rabb. at the earnest soil
citation of his many warm friends, has
consented to become a candidate for thu
appointment. Mr.. rabbi is not a pOliti
clan. He has never been an Office seeker
nor ever asked a favor of any kind from
his party. Yet he has been always a con
sistent and loyal democrat and has al
ways taken an active and intelligent in
terest in both state and national elcc
tions. He has beer liberal as his means
would permit in supporting the part,
candidates, although he never thought Of
asking for any sort Of political favor
for either himself or his friends. Mr.
Rabb stands for clean politics and wOulC
never stop to use any office which he
might hold for any but legitimate pur
poses. ~
1t is needless for The Herald to re
ptht ~ many tNi'i'lN'S VI IVY IL -
Governor Wilson's cause given by Mr.
Rabb, who was not only one of the EARL
est but also one of the most active an(
ardent supporters of the New JERSEY
statesman for president. Mr.. Rabb'$
friends all over the Valley and else
assertion. And when we refer to Mr.
Rabb'S friends. we refer to men of tho
tent to judge. and impose opinion i
very best standing. men who are cOmpc
worth while.
The Herald, with all others lovers o.
good government. sincerely hopes to sec
the administration of the customs in this
district in the hands Of some clean. ca
pable, who will give the government
honest and faithful service. and see that
the machiney Of the customs is not made
the adjunct of any political bosSiSm.
With Governor Wilson's record in Op-
position to bOsSiSm, The Herald believes
that Mr.. Rabbi is just the kind of ap
plicant that will appeal to him. As GOV.
ernor of New Jersey. Wilson has made
the bosses or that state sick Of their
job. He stands above all things for clean
politics and is the arch enemy of the
brand of p~olitian that SeekcS to corrupt
elections. or to use political offices for
selfish purposes. Therefore The Herald
believes that Mr.. Rabbi stands the best
possible chance of securing the appoint
mcnt as collector Of customs at Browns
Vile.

Sir William Ramsey after a brief visit
to the L. :. declares that We are the

Like enough. When an American college

Jamestown College President Not In
Favor Of Vocational Movement.

Jamestown.-Dr. B. H. Kroese, presi-
dent of jamestown college, is not en-
thusiastic over what he pleases to
term the present mad movement for
vocational training" In an address at
meeting at which the question of
securing an agricultural high school
for jamestown was under considera-
tion, the college head made himself
very clear on that point, contending
that the value of education lay in the
development of the mind and char
acter, and not in the teaching of spe.
cial trades:
President-elect A. G. Crane of the
Minot normal school, who is the pres.
ent superintendent of the jamestown
public schools, has slightly different
view, believing in the establishing of
the agricultural school, and strongly
urging such course for jamestown.

STUDYING ALFALFA.
That Subject Demands Attention Of
Farmers in Mandan School.

Mandan.-Alfalfa growing is sub
ject which is appealing to the farmers
of the Missouri slope who attended
the first farm school ever held in Man
dan. The school was opened by the
Mandan Commercial club, with several
prominent agricultural experts as
teachers.
AS result of the efforts to interest
the farmers in alfalfa, there will be
a considerable acreage in this section.
One of the particularly interesting
features in connection with the farm
school is the fact that it was attend
ed by very large percentage of young
men.
Immediately following the farm
school the state dairymen's convention
was held, continuing two days. The
program for that event was very good.
State Dairy Commissioner r. F. Flint
was in charge of the convention, being
secretary of the association.

of less than 20 bushels per acre, to
later seeding, imperfect and illy-pre-
pared seed. He sowed twenty-fiv
pounds Of seed per acre and had q

This will probably dispose Of at $3.50

ration Of seed and cultivation Of soil
and opportune sowing, in the circular
spoken of there is cited the case Of q
Mr.. White, living fourteen miles
south of Rosetown, "who had fifteen
acres of summer fallow a year ago
last summer, upon which he produced
thirty.three bushels to the acre, when
many in the district harvested for
want of crop. Now, there can be no
proper reason advanced why such q
crop should not have been produced
on all the lands of the same quality
in the adjacent district, provided they
had been worked and cared for in the
same manner. This year (1911) the
same man had one hundred acres Of
summer fallow, had something over
$500 bushels of wheat. He also had
1900 bushels of oats and 300 bushels
of flax"
There are the cattle, the horses, the

individually and collectively deserve
special mention, and they are treated

cation by the Government agents.

Discs Snow Crust for Sheep.
Earl.-Heavy SHOWS in this vicinity,
followed by thaws and rains that
formed heavy crust, caused much
apprehension to sheepmen. The sheep
were unable to break through the
crust for forage and there was grave
danger of hundreds starving to. death.
r. J. Macarthur, however, solved the
problem by using an ordinary disc.
which he uses on his fields in the
summer. This broke up the crust in
fine shape and the sheep were able to
get at the grass below. Other sheep.
men are following his example.

floor is the blue lodge room, which is
not surpassed by any lodge room in

Commandery No. 1, Knights Templar,
and the ladies who are affiliated with
the Order of the Eastern Star.
The basement is devoted largely to

from it is a security vault, and beside
that is chess room, toilet room and
baths, with hot and cold water.
Accompanying Most Worshipful
