POPULAR ELECTION
OF SENATORS

The people of the United States
last month elected large number of
Senators, about one-third of the en-
tire membership of the National
Senate. There are no scandals and
no deadlocks. With two or three ex-
ceptions the results were so decisive
that everybody knew a day or two
after the election just who was cleo
ted and by how many votes.
Judson G. Welliver, writing in the
Farm and Fireside, cites as the first
benefit to the public from the popular
election of Senators "the satisfac-
ton of knowing what has happened"
There will be a greater benefit, Mr..
Welliver says, from the fact that
State Legislatures will not be bur-
dened with the task of electing Sena-
tors and will have a chance to do
constructive work. "The country"
he says, chad grown to think of the
State Legislatures as chiefly import
ant because of their function of
naming Senator'S"
It is much to be doubted from the
experience of the past if the average
Legislature is capable of construct
1--WE legislation. Certainly the aver
age legislator is not, and about the
best that the public can hope from a
Legislature is the adoption of some
needful measures along with lot of
other laws, good, bad and Indifferent,
but mostly in the two last named
classes. But the public has cause
to rejoice over the enforcement that
has been brought about between
Legislatures and senatorial elections.
There are no more disreputable chap
tiers in American political history
than those which relate to some of
the senatorial elections of the past.
The Legislatures ought to be some
what more useful as a result of the
new order.
There will be fewer purchased SEN
atorial seats. We may be sure of
that. There will be no more dead
locks in senatorial elections, drag
cling along for weeks and months to
the detriment Of the public business
and the disturbance Of the public
mind. There will be fewer legisla-
tive scandals and fewer broken
pledges among politicians. There
will be less injection of national af-
fairs into county and legislative dis
trict elections. There will be smaller
opportunity for the building up Of
political machines.
There are a thousand other reas-
ons why it is better for the people
to elect their Senators, but any one
of the reasons cited is good and suf-
6cient, and there is no need of en-
larging the list merely to enumerate
the Northumberland Journal.

foOdstutfs, and live at home, and will
push with renewed energy every line
of business and industrial activity.
The Manufacturers Record has
faith enough in the situation to feel
sure that this will be the result, and
that the outcome Of the decline in
cotton will prove to be one Of the
greatest material blessings that has
ever come to the South.
The South should remember that
the aggregate value of its crops Of
corn and wheat this year is within
few thousand dollars of the value
of last years cotton crop with seed.
This year the South has among its
farm products 970,994,O00 bushels
of corn, 166,225,OOO bushels Of
wheat, S7,9OO,OOO bushels of apples,
50,532,000 bushels Of sweet potatoes,
35,63S,000 bushels of IRISH potatoes
and 23,673,000 bushels of rice, g.
AL, 900 tons of hay and 736,542,0 900
pounds of tobacco.

FARMERS WEEK

The attention Of all farmers and
stockmen is called to the Farmers
Week" to be held at the Kentucky
Agricultural Experiment Station,
January 4th to 9th, 1915.
Farmers week" consists of a SER
les Of exercises and exhibits of in
terest to farmers in the various
branches of agriculture and includes
the annual conventions of the Ken
lucky Dairy Cattle Club, Kentucky
Beef Cattle Breeders Association,
State Horse Breeders Association,
Kentucky Swine Breeders Associa-
ton, State Sheep Breeders Associa-
ton Kentucky State Poultry Asso-
citation, Kentucky State Bee Keep
ers Association, State Horticultural
Society, and the Kentucky Corn
Growers Association. Each club or
association has its own program,
participated in by it's members and
also by the faculty of the agricul-
tural college and by certain men
from other states, of national or in
ternational reputation in their re-
spective lines.
Competitive exhibits will be held
in corn and various other grains, in
dairy products, poultry, fruits, to-
bacco and in woman's work. Very
tempting premium lists have been
provided and the exhibits compare
favorably with the best in the coun-
try.
Of all the various agencies at work
for the advancement of agriculture
in Kentucky, the work Of Farmers
Week is one Of the most important.
After attending one of these meet
ings, the open minded, progressive
farmer returns to his home greatly
benefited by what he has seen and
heard, he is refreshed and has new
enthusiasm for his work upon the
home farm in which he clearly sees
possibilities which before had seem
ed vague if they had been thought
of at all. At this great gathering
one comes in friendly contact with
the best and most progressive farm
ers and stockmen of the country.
Reduced rates have been granted
by all the principal railroads in Ken
lucky.
Farmers Week is the first Of the
ten weeks winter course in agricul
ture which course is especially des-
ignated to meet the needs of busy
farmers who can devote only lin
tied amount Of time to agricultural
college work.
Particulars regarding the individ-
ual association meetings and the
competitive exhibits, premiumists,
etc., may be obtained by addressing
the Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton, Lexington, Kentucky.

THE SOUTH MORE
THAN COTTON

Some years ago when disastrous
freeze destroyed $1OO,OOO,OOO worth
of citrus fruit groves and other
property values in Florida, the peo-
pie of that State Immediately turn
ed to and worked with greater ener-
gy than ever before. They lost
neither heart nor faith, nor did they
ask for help from anyone with which
to finance themselves and rebuild
their interests.
