TEXAS WHEAT EXPORTS
SHOW LARGE INCREASE

Galveston Texas, May 15.-This
port during April exported 427,311
bushels of wheat and 163,934 bushels
of kaffir corn, against nothing in
either one of these commodities for
the same period last year.
The present total for wheat exports
since September /, 1912, is 10,12O,574
bushels, against total exports for that
period last season of $4,000 bushels,
an increase of more than 100000
bushels in favor of the present sea-
SON. Kaffir corn has shown almost a
corresponding increase, total exports
to date for the present season being
412,5S0 bushels, an increase of $780,
S67 bushels for this season.
Eight foreign countries received ex-
port wheat from Galveston during
April while three received kaffir corn
during the same period.

THE GoRED OK AGAIN.

What the Senate will do to the tar
iff may be guessed. In that body the
Democrats have bare majority, but
Senators are not so close to the people
as are Representatives and they are
more the agents of the big protected
interests than of the masses who are
clamoring for tariff reform. The big
gest hope the Democrats may have
for holding the Senators in line is the
new arrangements by which those
same common people will elect Sena-
tors hereafter. The Senators must go
before the people for reelection, and
that thought may hold them in line
to do as they conceive the common
voters would have them do. On the
other hand, there are just lots and
lots of scouting Democrats who have
changed front on the tariff question,
since it is discovered that it is a game
in which their personal interests are
pawns. 1t does not look nearly so good
as it did, to the many interests in
different sections Of the country, the
proprietors of those interests having
all along thought to press down on
the other fellow with his own business
not in danger. That influence is going
to be very noisy, and the Senators
may think the frequent appeals from
home, from the dissatisfied constit-
uents is Vox populi. They'll make a
guess at the big side, anyway, and will
solve the reasonable doubt" in favor
of their own aristocratic tendencies, it
is to be feared.-Temple Telegram.

GRADUATES To RE-
TURN To THE FARM
Thirty-seven Young Men Graduating at
A. and M. This Session In Agri-
culture viii Take Up Work
Trained For.

When the commencement exercises
at the A. and NJ. College are over in
June thirty-seven members of the sen.
ior class of the school of agriculture
will Immediately take up the work for
which they have been fitting them
selves the past few years. The A. and
NJ. College will turn back to the farm
this year twenty-five men of the thirty
eight agricultural seniors. All save
one of the remaining sixteen will
either teach agriculture in Texas high
schools next year or accept work at
experiment stations in Texas and in
the Argentine Republic.
But twenty-five will bark back to the
farm. Some of that number will work
on their own or their fathers farms,
while seven will assume the superin-
tendency of farms for Texas planta.
tion owners.
The criticism has been made
against the A. and NJ. College that we
are not educating the Texas youth to
become farmers" said +. ]. Kyle,
dean of the agricultural school, in dis
cussing the future of these boys "A
glance at the records Of our graduates
will Offset any such statement, and
one who is imbued with the desire to
be just can make no such statement
that we have failed in educating farm
ers.
This year the enrolment at the
college is 1913, and of that number 5l3
are taking agriculture. or our grad
uating class of thirtyeight, thirty
seven have made final plans for agri-
cultural work, and the other boy is
not sure yet as to just what he will do.
The records show that more than 20
per cent of the men who have grad
uated from the school of agriculture
are actively engaged either in farming
or in teaching agriculture. The re-
mainder invariably are found friendly
TO the farmer and, like p. l.. Downs.
banker of Temple, have done more to
further the interests of the farmer
than 80 per cent of those who claim
to be farmers.
"This year we send a number of
men to Argentine Republic to assume
charge of experiment stations. 1t
strikes me that the endorsement of
foreign agricultural authorities should
dissipate all doubt as to whether We
are making good"
