winters nap and with their awakening will come
the song of the birds moving North as harbingers

appreciate the benefits to be derived from these
forerunners Of spring. and the attention which
should be given TO their care and protection,

The Natchitoches enterprise. (Natchitoches, La.) 1888-1965, 1913-08-07

In agriculture, as in other lines.
we in America are often told that
they do things better abroad. "
An American commission is now
in Europe studying the foreign
system OF farm credits and other
American investigators are abroad
studying other features of the
farming problem. 1t is pleasant
on this account to learn that a
party of Englishmen has been in
this country studying the Ameri-
can agricultural schools and to
find them pronouncing these
schools the best of their kind in
the world
According to the New York
Journal OF. Commerce member of
the visiting party declares that the
American agricultural colleges
must be duplicated in England.
He is particularly impressed by
the work of Wisconsin's great
college. and declares that ''the
unrivaled position of Wisconsin in
the production of cheese and but
ter is the direct result of scientific
teaching happily welded to pru-
dent legislation He finds the
"book-teaching" of agriculture
thoroughly practical" and ad-
mits that it is adding millions to
the wealth of the United States.
The development of agricultural
schools in the United States has
been surprisingly rapid. Just a
few years ago the book-taught
farmer was one of our stock Jokes
To- day the agricultural college no
longer satisfies the demand for
farm training. and agricultural
high schools are being established
in the farming states. The frugal,
Industrious foreign farmer can
still teach us a good many things
that he and mis- ancestors have
learned under the pressure of me-
cessity. But he owes most of his
labor-saving farm machinery to
American ingenuity-and the COM
ing generation of book-taught
American farmers not improbably
will be able to beat HIM in the
very lines wherein he seems now
to hold a margin of superiority.

One Way To Boost.

Time was, not so long ago, when
Oakland, CAL, was a pretty dead
city.
It had a certain amount of bust
ness, small measure of healthy
growth and seemed satisfied to re
main the bedroom for San
Francisco, says an exchange.
In recent years the city has
shown signs of an awakening from
its slumber of a half century or
more.
1t began to discover, shortly
after the big fire across the bay,
that it had possibilities within
itself.
1t began to grow despite the
efforts of Silurians and old fossils
whose watchword was ''let we'll
enough alone"
The younger generation began
to take notice. The young and
virile men began to be up and
doing.
The chamber of commerce, the
progress and prosperity com
mlttee, the advertising mems club,
the merchants exchange. visited
the springs of Ponce de Leon and
became young again.
All those bodies began to work
for Oakland and the results are
apparent today.
Taking a leaf from the book of
progress of other cities, Oakland
this year sent strong delegation
Of boosters up and down the coast
to chant the praises Of Oakland
and to bring about 2 better feeling
between the different centers of
trade and commerce on the Pacific.
The advertising benefits aecnr-
ing from the trip cannot be
measured. That q golden harvest
will be the result no one will
question.
