Name the Farm.

So many arguments can be adj
vanced in favor of naming the
farm that it seems strange, in
travelling over the country, that
80 few farm names are noticed.
1t would seem that every one
who owns a farm, makes it his
home, where his children are
reared and their characters form
ed, would feel proud of the farm,
jealous of the reputation of his
farm home and anxious to let it
stand for all it means, Be the
farm large or small, it is a king
dom within itself. 1t is an en-
pire that supports the royal
family" and contributes toward
the support of the state and
nation.
, Why not give your farm a
uame2 Let your children be
proud of it and your neighbOrs
emulate 1t in the erection Of their
homes. You will find that the
children take more interest in
the farm home; they will help
you beautify II and win assist
you in making the crops and an
imals worthy Of the farms name.

Japanese Ire is SOftening

Announcement that President Wilson and Secretary Bryan are trying for compromise brings op- timism. Owe much to United States. Excitement is caused in Tokio by announcement that an- ti-Japan legislation is pending in the Canadian provinces.)
 An announcement that Presi- dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan are making efforts to bring about compromise on the proposed California legislation in respect to the alien land ownership bill, and that Governor Johnson is op- posing the bill has softened the Japanese ire and public opinion has become more optimistic.
 The alleged unwillingness of American missionaries to assist in resisting the bill is the subject of harsh criticism in the Japapese papers but after a conference with Count Okuma, the foreign minister had with the missionat ries, the latter dispatched tele- grams to California the exac- nature of which is not known. Okuma ironically reminded the missionaries that Japan owed it's first lesson in humanitarian prin- ciples to the United States.

 There was no objection to No. 34, by Willis. providing that the state may select other lands in lieu of school lands upon which settlers have squatted. not know ing it to be school land and ex- pecting to get title as soon as it should be surveyed.
 Favorable action was also talk en on No. 35, by Lovin, provid- ing that if laborers are paid in checks the checks must be on banks within the state. No. A, written by c. B.

Penal Code Unchanged

whole reported the penal code for passage Saturday afternoon. Kerr, Brooks, Lewis, Irvine and other friends of the governor did their level best to remove the section which caused Hunt to veto the penal code after the last session, but their efforts were without avail.
 The session that caused the governor to veto the penal code was the amendment. written by Kelton. restricting to ninety days the period for which the gover- nor can reprive a condemned cri- minal. except in the event that [ new evidence tending to prove his innocence should be brought to light.
 There was no question about any other part of the code and only that section was considered in committee of the whole.
 Irvine moved that the section be stricken from the bill and that it be introduced as a new mea- sure. The penal code is a long bill, Irvine argued, and it's pas sage is vital to the welfare of the state. The governor vetoed it once because of that section and it was only fair to assume that he would, veto it again. A sep arate bill would serve the same purpose and not jeopardize the code. The amendment, after discussion. was lost 15 to 1.
 The report of the committee of the whole was adopted and the penal code referred to the enrol ling and expressing committees.
 Amendments making 30 cents an inch the highest price that
 
 can be paid for either state or county printing and requiring that state printing be let by con- tract to the lowest bidder were added in the house committee of the printing code, senate bill No. IA.
 When the printing code was up in the senate the maximum for state printing was lowered from 75 cents to 40 cents, while the county maximum was left at 35 cents.
 When the bill was read before the house committee of the whole Rabbit immediately offered an amendment providing that not more than 30 cents an inch should be paid for either state or county printing. There was no objec- ton. Jacobs then offered an amendment providing that the board of control must advertise for bids on the state printing, the same as county supervisors are now compelled to advertise. Again there was no opposition.
 Kirke Moore suggested another amendment to change that sec tionsof the law requiring that state printing be done by some paper at the capital and leave all dailies in the state free to make bids. About that time Brooks objected to further procedure without printed copies of the bill and it's amendments, which the senate had not furnished. Moore withdrew his amendment tenn porarily and the senate was re- quested to supply the copies. Later in the afternoon the senate ordered that 1000 copies of the bill and it's senate amendments be printed.
 Woods general taxation law, senate bill No. 22, was approved | in the house committee of the whole without opposition. The following senate code bills were sent on for passage:
 No. 6, sale of goods, No. ', l license and occupation taxes; No. 8, horticultural commission; No. 10, contempt of court; No. 12, adoption of children: No. 15, con-
