The Progressive Farmer
indianapolis News.

indianapolis News.
Agriculture is, Notwithstanding the
large amount of capital invested in 9TH
er work, the nations chief calling. and
TO admit that the farmer is unproc-es-
sive would be to admit that the country
itself has not progressed. How about
the quick adoption of improved machin-
cry, the farmers Institutes, the rural
schools, the better homes, the cooper
alive enterprises? How about the farm
ers who attend the university lectures
given IN the trains that travel about the
state? Then there are the field and
orchard demonstrations, the egg snd
cattle shows, the county and state fairs.
the poultry exhibitions and, more lately,
the apple fairs.
The southern farmer is no longer the
lackadaisical planter" he was once
supposed to he. The Customer does not
exc out an existence on stony New Eng
gland hillsides and the westerner Does
not depend on mavericks and prairie
grass for his welfare. Kansas once was
a state of miseraoly poor farmers. But
that was in the time Of the pioreer.
when men who knew nothing offarrinQ
went west for another start in life. Kan.
sas Is now one of the richest agricultnr-
a states The vacation habit is firmly
fixed. the automobile displaced the rick
ETY. wagon, and the well constructed
dwelling the sodhouse The farmers are
( quick to learn and Kansas emulated H.
diana when'itrscently appointed a prac-
teal former, who also had been edu-
Gated in university, as the alfalfa ex-
pert OF the state-an official whose
services are at the disposal of the farm
ers. The farmer may not be hysterical
radical demanding an immediate millen-
mum, but he is progressive.

RESPECTING CONVICTIONS.

Never was there time in the history
o. this country when it was more nee
siry for the average citizen to keep
head than now, and at the same
II ne to keep his temper and exercise
t. spirit of charity. That politics are
-irr state of flux and in topsy-turvey
C EDITION no one can deny.
In time things will come out right.
that will mean the good of the
g eater number. But at present the
o tlook to many seems unc, rtain, and
no thoughtful man can view the situa.
tt n without recognizing its gravity.
Ali the reason, therefore, that broad
nlndedness should be exhibited by all
C ncerned. No one man and no one
p-rty has a monopoly of wisdom any
more than any one party or person is in
v riably wrong. Keeping that fact in
, mind will make for an even and fair
Judgment.

JUDGES AND The LAW

The warm discussion which for long
tine has been going on in the press and
o. the platform concerning the alleged
81 ortcomings and violation of Justice by
sc me jurists will do the Judiciary no
h''rm. Rather will it do good for while
Il ere is no question as to the rectitude
a impsrtiality of the great majority
judges yet it is generally admitted
Il at some have not been impeccable and
Il at others have not been in symnathv
with recognized modern views on many
important matters. For that reason their
d cision on some vital question has been
archaic and therefore foreign to the pres
EFT day conception of law and equity.
Nothing is gained by sitting discus
8 IN or in refusing to let light in. The
icsa that some have that however much
o e may criticize other officials the ju-
d ciary should be exempt is absurd.
Judges are human. like other people,
therefore, liable to err. and while
tit must he admitted that TO criticism
3 ould be designed TO lower the dignity
o the office or reverence for law, it
Z ust also be admitted that criticism
rightly INDUCED in will benefit the iu-
ciary and inspire greater respect for
law. Reform both of the judiciary and
o. law procedure is needed, and when
Instituted, most of the present discon-
s{snt will cease. The only difficulty lies
b. the methods to be employed to attain
Il e end desired.
