An excellent programme had been
prepared n was carried out with very
slight changes. Several very interest
ing reports and addresses were given
during the sessions on Friday. The
beautiful solos rendered by Miss Beck

Elected in the changed attitude of the
people toward agricultural education
in the new interest exhibited in the
farm and its problems as a permanent
business, in a greater respect for ag-
ricultural knowledge and in the in
creased desire for assistance. The
farmers Of North Dakota are noted for
their progressiveness - consequently
the work has been well received. 1t Is
apparently pretty clearly demonstrated
that the more progressive the farmer,
he more eager he is to avail himself
of methods which may increase his
production and income. On the other
hand, the poorer farmer shows q re-
luctance and lack of desire in adopt
ing new methods which will be more
valuable, These changes are reflected
In the thought and conversation OF the
people. The farmers are discussing
to a very considerable extent he vari-
Gus methods Of management which
may bring them increased yields or in
come.
The success of the work at this time
is practically assured. Eighteen men
are employed by the association in the
field and not less than twelve addi-
tional men will be taken on this sea-
son. The great majority of these men
have had years Of practical farm ex-

western states. In addition they have
had thorough technical training in
agriculture and are able to cope with
the situations that arise. Many OF our
most progressive farmers do not need
assistance from this organization.
Their present practice is in advance OF
work that has been developed expert
mentally. The greater number COM
prasing not less than 95 per cent of the
farmers of this state, need and can
make use of assistance fitted to their
own conditions. The success Of the
work Of the Better Farming associa-
ton or similar field work is assured so
long rs there are those who can make
use of existing knowledge. There will
always be many who have difficulty In
interpreting the results Of experiment
and practices new to them. Al form OF
educational work which goes directly
to the producers, using their own
farms and stock as the schoolroom and
laboratory, cannot fail il manned by
competent 1t is a form of work
to which the people respond and in
which North Dakota is blazing the
way.

south lost their patronage, but very
little of 1t had gone to the negro, any
way. But when the next convention
came around the negro stood for some
thing. His fidelity was an asset that
helped the race to grow in Importance.
They have grown ever since. They are
better OFF in national politics than
they ever were before.

THE southern negroes are the most
reliable of all the African people in
America They are showing more real
progress in all the walks of life than
their northern brothers, and they have
more of the confidence of the white
people than they do north of the Ohio
river. 1t is largely because they have
always been dependable.

GEORGE . Re. s. NIXON Is DEAD
United States Senator From Nevada
I! succumbs to Blood Poisoning After
! an Operation In Nose.

Washington, June Senator George
s. Nixon Of Nevada died here
Wednesday, at ten p. m. His wife,
who is speeding across the continent
from Reno, failed to reach his side
before the end.
5 When appraised that the attending
physicians had given up hope for her
husband, Mrs. Nixon dismissed them
by telegraph and called in William
Campbell, the best known Christian
Science healer in Washington, in the
hope that Christian Science might stay
the hand Of death. He remained with
the stricken senator until the end.
The immediate cause Of Senator
Nixon's death was blood poisoning fol-
lowing an operation to remove a nasal
growth performed few days ago at
the Episcopal Eye, Ear and Throat
hospital Mrs. Nixon was notified by
telegraph.
