A SUCCESSFUL LIFE

He has achieved success who has lived
well, laughed often, and loved much; who
has gained the respect of intelligen, men
and the love Of little children; who has
filled his niche and accomplished his task;
who has left the world better than he
found it, whether by an improved poppy,
perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who
has never lacked appreciation of earth's
beauty or failed to express it; who has
always looked for the best in others and
given the best he had; whose life was an
inspira.ion; whose memory a benedic.ion.

This visit Of Prof. Campbell was the
first Of series of such visits to be made
to this vicinity at intervals Of about six
weeks during the coming season. Sew
eral farmers Of Sligo have sought his
advice and agreed to follow his instruc-
tions in regard to handling their crops
and summer tilling, thus receiving prac-
tically . field course in scientific agri-
culture. The plan IL being followed also
at Holyoke, Colo. Atwood, Kan, Al
lance. Neb., Chamberlain, Blunt, and
Onida. S. D. 1t is made possible by
the public spirit of the railroads, which
bear the expense Of the Campbell visits.
In introducing the speaker. Mr.. C. l..
Morgan said that 1t had been stated in
the Denver Chamber of Commerce that
only seven crops had been raised in
Eastern Colorado in twenty-seven years.
This was probably true, but farmers
were now going after the twenty bad
years. and by proper methods would Sc
cure profitable crop from part of
the land every year. He considered the
present plan of cooperative farming
more profitable to the community than
to have big demonstration farm
equipt with every needed device, for the
farmer can now watch the progress and
results of systematic methods under
conditions identical with those prevail
ing on their own farms.
A visit to Mr.. Morgan's field of win
ter wheat, which has attracted 80 much
favorable comment from all who have
seen it, showed that it had withstood
the terrific gale Of Saturday and Sum
day remarkably well. The wind had
taken the soil mulch off the higher
points Of the field, and Prof. Campbell
advised that these parta Of the field be
cross-disked At once, to renew the
mulch.

PROF. CAMPBELL AT SLIGO
Exponent of Scientific Farming
Gives His Services to the
Local Farmers

the Campbell system of soil culture and
editor Of The Scientific Farmer, deliv-
cred an interesting and instructive lee
ture at Sligo Monday afternoon. The
meeting was held in the Edison machine
shop, and was attended by representa-
tive farmers, who exhibited intense in
terest by close attention, and questions
regarding details Of crop management.
Prof. Campbell expressed enthusiastic
faith in the possibilities and future Of
the entire semi-arid section of the Unit
ed States, extending from North Dakota
to Texas. and from the Roc y Noun
tains to the Missouri River. He dwelt
on the necessity of understanding the
why, when and how" of tillage for
success at farming, just as success in
any other line of endeavor II based on
and proportionate to the amount of un-
derstanding and intelligence the worker
brings to his task.
Farming il reduced to system. Ger
tain things must be done under certain
conditions, or the farmer loses. The
rule of thumb method is out of date on
the farm just a. it is in the factory or
the laboratory. A little matter Of neg
lecting to plow until the weeds have
made rank growth may result in de-
creasing the following crop by half.
Failure to reestablish the soil mulch
after . packing rain win result in loss
not only Of the moisture which fell last,
but also Of that already stored in the
ground. -.
Some new implements which are being
tried ou0on the demonstration farms Of
the Campbell Soil Culture Co. at Hold
rege, Neb., and Akron, Colo, were de-
scribed with reference to their practical
use.
A double disk is tandem arrange
ment which does 1T one operation work
which with the ordinary disk requires
the tapping half" process of covering
the ground twice. It is said to be only
slightly heavier Of draft than the ordi-
nary disk Of the same width.
Weeder knives to take the place Of
the regular spikes in the ordinary har-
row promise an inexpensive solution Of
the weed problem, and also good
method of creating soil mulch under
certain conditions.
A drill for planting five wide rows Of
small grains or alfalfa, with cultivator
attachments for the economical tillage
of the same number Of rows ataa time,
using two horses, is intended to increase
the number of acres q man can properly
cultivate. Cultivation is essential in
maintaining the soil mulch and destroy
ing weeds, thus conserving the moisture
in the soil for use of the crop plant.
Crops ordinarily not cultivated. or else
only with the harrow early in the sea-
son, may be given the needed attention
all thru the growing period
These tools are experiments yet, but
are expected to b on the market by
next year. None Of them will be very
expensive, and all are designed to do
work which experience has shown to be
Of great importance. Unirrigated al-
falfa, for instance, grown in rows about
eighteen inches apart and cultivated,
has yielded two tons Of hay and eight
bushels Of seed per acre. The new cul-
tivator makes the necessary cultivation
comparatively easy.

OENDIOCN OTV ). EHN DILL
Taylor Outlines Differences Be-
tween Demands of West and
Those of Fisher

has outlined the conflict Of ideas be-
tween the public lands committee and
Secretary Fisher Of the Interior De-
proposed three-year homestead law.
II started out to iberalize and hu-
mamie the homestead law somewhat"
says Taylor, land the demands of the
secretary would make the law ten times
worse than it is at present.
1.-The secretary demands five things:
"First-That all minerals of every
kind be reserved to the government for
all time.
"Second-That all water power possi-
bilities, including rights of way for
transmission lines, shall be reserved to
the government, and such portions of
the land as necessary shall be surren-
dered for that purpose at any time.
'Third-That all merchantable tim
ber be reserved. Almost any kind of
tree would be merchantable timber.
Fourth That progressive cultiva-
tion and improvements shall be required
one-sixteenth first year, one-eighth sec
ond year, one-fourth third year. which
is impossible for poor man.
"Fifth-The law shall not apply to
the 32O-acre homesteads, or to the re-
clamation homesteads.
'"The only concession that he is will
ing to make is that the law may apply
to existing 16O-acre homestead entries.
The 320-acre dry-farmers want to prove
up in three years and they want the
cultivation acreage reduced from eighty
to forty acres, and if we yield to Fish
er's demands we get neither of these
provisions.
The present law is better than the
law would be if we are compelled to ac-
cept Mr.. Fishers amendments. For
! one, will not accept those amendments
unless the citizens of Colorado emphati-
cally instruct me to do so.
IL am getting deluge of letters, pc
titions and kilograms on this subject
from all over the West. cannot pos
sibly answer them individually. From
Colorado, the eastern portion of the
state, where there is no mineral or tim
Der or water power, they are willing to
accept conditional surface title in or
der to secure the three-year Homestead
But they do not realize that the secre-
tary is unwilling to have it apply to
them. Even If should agree to the
surface title amendment they would get
no benefit out Of the law.
1.-THE people from practically all the
rest of the West insist upon having an
absolute title to their land and would
rather wait five years than to take
merely surface conditional right. OF
course the secret Of the whole thing is
that Mr.. Fisher is opposed to the bill
and is taking this means Of trying to
kill it.
"But congress has emphatica]ly and
overwhelmingly decided in favor Of the
three-year homestead proposition, and
the three-year homestead law is coming
If not at this session, at the next.
And do not believe that it is at all
necessary for US to yield to the Pinchot
ultrs-conservationists theories and ac-
cepe limited titles that will make all
kinds Of complications and litigation
and be nuisance forever" "--- !.
