NESS PARTNER.

--
WASHINGTON, Sept. 90. - The
August crop report of the agricultural
department., with its forecast Of rec
ord breaking gains for 1912, is inter-
esting reading alike to the farmer
and the city man, SO essential to gen.
eral prosperity are satisfactory re-
turns from the soil.
The pessimist Is ~disheartened with
the gain of 1871 million bushels OF
corn, 16 million bushels of spring and
winter wheat and 800 million bushels
Of oats, t~otaling almost 800 million
bushels in three crops with rye and
barley not considered; and 1t is still
necessary, in order to get some idea
Of the total, to add 20 million tons Of
hay.
This is a billion dollar year for a
billion dollar country, and there is a
fair chance that our 1912 crops will
exceed 10 billion dollars for the first
time in history.
What has brought about this in
crease? Are the rains wetter and
the sunshine brighter than in former
days? Not so-they are just the
same, but the present day farmer has
learned his lesson, Make hay while
the II Shines" The explanation OF
the increase is intensified farming,
the application of science to the till
ing Of the soil, and economy in the
use Of methods and time.

es up old Dobbin and drives over bad
roads to town, thus needlessly vast
ing time and energy. He has learned
that he a send his voice on his er-
rands over the wire highway. The
rural telephone has come to be the
progressive farmers partner. 1t en-,
ables him to accomplish more in one
day than his father could have done
in two or even three. This partner
OF his brings to him the weather fore
casts and market quotations. He nc
longer works in the dark. The part
nership between the American farm
err and the rural telephone is con
~tributing to bring husbandry up to
the same point Of efficient organiza'
ton as any of the so-called big bust
nesses. ~ "
An official Of the Western Electric
Company, manufacturer of the seven
million "Bell' telephones, states that
within the last five years they have
sold over half a million telephones
for the farmers, and the demand
shows no signs Of abatilg, as prac'
tically all of the country folks who
have not already done SO are realiz
ing the advisability of taking into
their business a partner-a rura|
telephone.

THE BIG CROPS

Secretary Wilson thinks that the government deserves some credit for Inc big crops. He docs not make an exclusive claim for the present admins tration. but says that of late years the drpGrlmcul of agr6- culture at Washington, and the states also have been helping lhc farmers to gel better returns from their fields. An enormous mass of instructive printed mat Ter has been sent out that should have been a factor in crop productions.
 IL is to be hoped, certainly that all the effort and all the expense of this output of bulletins and reports has had some effect, and nu doubt, under intelligent direction there will be much higher aNrrag" per acre in the future. That we can continue ao IlllpIo\t IS IlltllCultu NliH comparison with other cOun- fries. Though our wheat crop iS the largest in the world, it is less than three times that of France, thickly populated country having an area much smaller than that of the state of Texas. Then therc is Ger many, another old country, which mot Gnly beats Us 10 a fraZZlc in fine growing of potatoes but produces a dozen times as much rye as ihe United StalrS. Of course we have corn in amazing qu"nlity. but We have the land and every square mile of the land can be made ln do better than it has done. The big crop. therefore. is nCt only a fine /Lhing in Itself. an aSSur- ancc of abundance. now, an as surance that the good times will continue. but il is an inIica- lion that persistent application of brains iO the soil will result in sill moro hounliful harvr~fs.

Ambassador Wilson Regards New
Element as Not Uncomfortable.
Kansas City = 3"This uprising con-
tributes new element to the revo-
lutionary situation in Mexico and not
an inconsiderable one," Henry Lane
Wilson, ambassador to Mexico, said
when he learned of the CAPTURE of
Vera Cruz by General Felix Diaz.
Mr.. Wilson, who left Mexico City
five days ago with his wife, is visiting
friends here.
General Diaz is man of great
prestige both with the army and pub
lic," Mr.. Wilson continued. Either
to the revolutionary movement against
the Madero government has been
headed by men whose names expressed
no special significance and all lacked
some essential of leadership.
~ have no doubt that the Madero
government will exert itself to it's
greatest activity and endeavor to meet
the new conditions.

Domestic Skill Wins.
Portland-The statement made by
H. C.. Campbell, of the school board,
in his address at the opening of the
new Lincoln high school building, that
legislation was contemplated which
would require every woman to exhib-
it certificate Of graduation in do
nestle science before she would be al
lowed to obtain marriage liscense, is
having the desired effect. This is
shown by the fact that 81 young wo-
men were enrolled in the domestic
science night school only two days
after it opened. Members Of the
school board, upon hearing the report
of Superintendent Rigler to this effect
at their meeting recently, congratu-
lated Chairman Campbell on the sue
cess Of his implied threat Of life of
manlessness to all girls not possessed
of a domestic science certificate.
