terests too far ahead.
1t took three quarters of a CEN
fury to build up the American
railroads and during this period
but little attention was given to
the American country roads, yet
the value of the two to the pub
lie goes hand in hand.
If the country roadmakers had
kept up with the railroad makers
it would not cost the farmer to
haul a ton of grain one mile as
much as it costs him to send it
by railroad fifty miles.
A farmer who lives fifteen
miles from a shipping station on
a good road is better off than one
who lives five miles off on a poor
road.
The railroads are interest in
your welfare and may be depend
ed upon to aid in working out
your economies. 1t is good busi-
ness to do so.
The only way to get good roads
is to fight fort hem. Fight hard.
Government statistics tell us
that it costs our farmers Is cents
more to haul one ton one mile
than in europe.
We have more than two million
miles of public roads, and of this
amount only about two miles out
of each hundred are under high
state of improvement; eight out
of each hundred miles under any
kind of Improvement.
A good farm away from rail-
road or a good public road is al
most as improbable as farm
without water.

train Saturday, June 6.

B. F. YOakum on
Good Roads.

The following epigrams are
taken from speeches made by B.
F. Yoakum, chairman of the
Executive Committee, St. Louis
and San Francisco Railroad Com
pany, upon the subject of Good
Roads.
There is no work more impor-
tant than to build public roads
in such a manner that they will
be permanent and economical in
maintenance.
Good roads cut the time to
market in half and double the
value of the farm lands.
You cannot make as good an
investment in any other way and
the state and general public
should and will aid you if you &c
about it in the right manner.
Compare the country roads full
of mud holes with the improved
town streets. Look at the coun'
try wooden bridges and then al
the town stone bridges and steel
viaducts. Farmers get together
for progress, not retreat.
Cities are growing faster be-
cause money is pouring in for i'm
provement. Farming industry
is at standstill because there is
not enough money expended tc
make the roads passable enough
for social visits.
The value of farm lands is
fixed by their nearness to rail-
roads or the equivalent-good
roads.
y The farmer has never been &C.
cused of thinking of his own in

The News received a letter
Monday from the director of the

Roads Train will be in this city

all people interested in the build
ing of good roads will make it a

strations made. It will pay

How Farms Are
Worn Out.

W - 800
There is complaint made all
over the United States that the
soils of the eastern and middle
states, and to some extent of the
prairie states, are losing their
fertility. We want to point out
to our readers just how this is
done, and in such a way that can
see it with their own eyes, says
Wallaces's Farmer.
Here is farm, originally good,
rich prairie, containing the stored
fertility of many thousands OF
years. 1t belongs, we will say,
to a banker or a Speculation, or to
a retired farmer. If to retired
farmer, he wants to get money
enough out of it to enable him to
live in town; and no matter how
much he gets, it will be less than
he needs, or at least expects. IT
it belongs to a SPECTATOR, a man
who buys to sell again, he will
put as little money on it as he
can; for he believes that under
no circumstances will he get pay
for the improvements. If it be-
longs to a banker who is not a
good deal more than a banker
Gin spirit, a farmer), he will
deal with it in the same way.
He will rent it to a farmer on a
one-year lease. No matter to
whom it belongs, if rented on a
one-year lease, it requires no
prophet to predict the result.
AS we have often pointed out
to our readers, there are three
parties to every lease, or at least
should be: the owner, the renter,
and the farm itself, not as an in
dividual farm, but as one of the
assets of the farming commu-
nifty, and in this the community
is necessarily interested. The
landlord wants to get all the
money out of it that he can this
year. The tenant wants to get
all the money out of it that he
can; and there is no one to look
after the interests of the farm.
The owner is looking after his
own interests, not his own per-
manent interests, but his own
immediate interests. The tenant
has no interests in the farm be-
yond the year. 1t may then be
sold. 1t may be rented to an
other man, no matter how well
he farms. The landlord makes
no improvements, because he
does not expect to get pay for
them. The tenant makes no i'm
provemeuts, and for the same
reason. He does not SOW clover,
unless the landlord furnished the
seed, and then he is likely to go
through the form of sowing 1t
without any particular consider
alton as to whether it grows or
not. He does not know that he
will get any benefit from it. He
does not repair the fences. He
does not haul out the manure I'M
less he is bound by his lease to
do it; and then he is not particu-
lar. He does not cut the weeds
on the roadside nor in the pas
lures, simply because he does
not expect to be paid for it. He
sells off the farm everything he
can sell, and returns nothing.
Now he is not to blame for that,
particularly because he has been
given a contract to get out of it
ali he can, and why should he
cot fulfill the contract7
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1912-07-04

on all over the United States,
though not so much in some sec
tions as in others; but wherever
man has a farm that he ex-
poets to sell and may sell at any
time, he will offer a one-year
lease to the tenant.
Now, why do not land owners
adopt the longer lease, as is done
in all the older countries? One
reason is that the owner does not
know whether he will own the
farm another year or not, and
the lease might interfere with
the sale; and this must continue
until the era of speculation in
land has passed. AS long as
men buy land with the expecta-
tion that it will advance in price,
as it has done in the last fifteen
years, they will make one-year
leases.
Another reason is that the
landlord does not know until he
has tried him whether the tenant
is fit to farm or not, and he can
not try him for less than a year.
There is something in that; not
nearly so much, however, as
there was in times past. Thirty
years ago we were very loath to
rent a farm to a tenant for longer
than one year, because the ten
ants then were a poor lot. They
are a much better class of far
mers now, The poor tenants
have been weeded out, or have
weeded out themselves by lack
of skill. Some of the tenants
now are better farmers than the
men who own the farms, and
some of them a good deal better.
AS tenancy improves, there will
be still less force in this objec-
tion.
The reason why the tenant
does not insist on a longer lease
than one year is because he does
not know whether he will stay
or not. He is trying out the
landlord, while the landlord is
trying him out. In the north, as
in the south, there are some ten
ants who expect to move every
year. They know they are not
good farmers. They like change,
and, like a rolling stone, they
gather no moss" They might
stay two or three years, provided
they had hold of a good, rich
farm at a fair rental. whether
for cash or a share of the crop;
but the landlord does not know
them well enough to give them a
lease of that kind.
We can not expect a longer
lease to be adopted generally un-
til either by law or by agreement
the tenant is given assurance
that he will be paid for improve
ments or bctterment of fine farm.
AS it is now, the landlord can
confscate without pay any inn
provements or betterment the
tenant may make. For example,
every farmer knows that the eff
fects of manure will last four,
FIVE or six years. What eucour.
agement has the tenant to haul
out the manure and apply it
wisely and properly, unless he
knows he is to get the benefit
out of it?
English farmers, who once
were in the same condition we
are, found out a better way. The
incoming tenant must pay for
unexhausted Iuanures; and either

Andrew Eldred. Editor of Daily

President of Student Body.
A. ]. Blethen's $4,000 chimes
are ringing in dome at the
University of Washington.
Andrew Eldred, editor of the
Daily Washingtonian, organ of
the student body, is under tenn
porary suspension from his
classes.
Jerry Riordan. president of the
student body, and 81 others have
openly declared themselves hos
tile.
Five hundred more students
are in readiness to walk out at
moments notice.
President Kane and the board
of regents have worked them
selves into a heat of irritability
over the affair, and declare they
hold the whip hand.
In brief that's the situation.
The story is one of boiling, seeth-
Ing Indignation.
A. J. Blethen spent $4,000
for chimes which he donated to
the university, and the student
body didn't want them, for rea-
sons known best by themselves.
They like music. too, so that
wasn't their motive in bucking
the proposition.
Tuesday night a meeting was
called by the board of regents
at which the acceptance of the
chimes was to be formally cele-
brated. The students showed
their hand by refusing to have
anything to do with the cere-
monies, and ushers were enlisted
from the faculty.
At the close of the affair pam
