man farming is most imp nrtant
and yet it il about the only one
which men feel perfectly quaiifi d
to enter with out previous pre-.
paration. The shoemaker, the
bricklayeri the c,rpenter, devote
long Years to. preparation and
study before they undertake the
resp onsibitities nf their trades,
but it id assumed that "any old
thing" is qualified to be a farmer.
Isn't it perfectly plain that this
one of'the explanations of the
backwnrdness of Southwest Loui-
eiana, from an agricultural stand
point. T..
In order to be a capable farmer
one must devote time and study to
the subject just "a he would be re-
quired TO do should he desire to
become a physician, lawyer or
a banker.
Every country boy ought to be
educatedin a college of agriculture
and then he will understand the
principles and science of farming,
which will be of inestimable value
to him. and whatever profession
he may select to pursue after
wards.
And because there are so many
farmers who have never enjoyed
the benefits of an agricultural
education. the College of Agri-
culture Of, the Louisiana State
University proposes TO bring the
College to the farmer in a series
of popular short courses to be
held at different points in Louisi-
ana.
AS soon as the plan was agreed |
upon the manager of the S nth

communicated with Dean
Dodson and asked that three of
these short courses be held in this
section of Louisiana. Ia response
were received from Pro-
lessor Dodson to. the effcct that

md will be highly entertaining
nd instructive. These short
ourses are designed to be educa.

al questions concerning farmlngl

soul yearns.

1T has been suggested that Marshall
county is entitled to the senator for
this district. The Sheaf has not
looked at it exactly that way, altho
we admit the question can be looked
at from that standpoint also. We
have thought, and many with us, that
in as much as the district has good
and true man in the senate, one who
is absolutely dependable and also en-
joys the confidence of the people that
it would be wise to keep him there.
1t is true that Marshall County has
any number of good and able men,
who can represent the district with
credit in the senate. Among those
we have heard mentioned in private
are H. l.. Melgard and n S. Keynes,
bankers of Argyle; P. A. McClernan,
attorney at law and Col. F.. A. Green,
of Stephen: DR.. G. S. VTaIfam and
julius J. Olson, attorney at law, of
Warren. These are all good men and
there are many others. Yet not one
perhaps, of those mentioned, would
care for the office, at least not if
they had to make a strenuous cam.
paign to get it. We have NOT heard
Of any Marshall county man who
wants to wrest the position from the
shrewd kittson county farmer, who
now holds it. He is getting old now
and will not want it long Personal
ly, perhaps, he would have nothing
against being retired now. But when
we consider his standing and lnfiu-
ence as a legislator, his unselfsh

fore the interstate commerce commits
sion at his own expense, and even
now he has in mind certain laws for
the regulation of Interstate commerce
rates on railroads, with a view of
beneftting the people of the state.
In view of these facts, the people of
Marshall county may not wish to see
Mr.. Sundberg succeeded by another
man, even though he were from this
county. ....

Easter Day In the Churches

Easter day is re-eminently day for church,

world on Easter, bending the knee in homage
before the King of kings.
The Easter festival Of the beautiful the church cal
endar festival which flowers and exquisite music play important
parts.
Easter is the harbinaer of spring, the glorious
season of hope, of revivified life, presaging the
immortality of which man in his philosophic
moments has vague perception.
Let this Easter day bring you with that great
church which God established for the redemption Of the world
Go to church on Easter and hear in anthem
and sermon that marvellous story Of the resur-
rection. Who knows? By that very act of at
tending the house of worship you may resurrect
in your own soul the latent God hunger which,
when it fills ones life transforms him into man
of wondrous power.
Go church Easter day and behold the flower laden chan

Secretary Daniels has issued an or
der barring the use of alcoholic Ii
quors in the navy from and after July
l. The order is a sweeping one and
prohibits the use or introduction of
alcoholic Liquors for drinking pur-
poses on board any naval vessel or
within any shipyard Or station, and
all commanding officers will be held
directly responsible for the enforce
ment of the order. Thus we see that
the United States government, like
other large employers of labor, will
not tolerate drunkenness on the part
of it's employees, and therefore estab-
fishes absolute prohibition on ships of
the navy, for the better protection
and safe guarding of the men in the
service. Is it any wonder then that
cities and towns, where large num-
bers of boys and young men grow up
demand the exclusion of the licensed
"canteen"?

A public man must be Judged by
his record, by what he does, and
when applying that criterion, Cover
nor Eberhart has nothing whatever to
fear from his critics. All his ap-
pointments have been exceptionally
good, and have been made, not with a
view of advancing his own political
fortunes, but solely on account of the
persons fitness for the position to be
filed and for the best interests of the
state. The governor is gclod Judge
of men, and rarely makes mistake
in. picking men of integrity, sobriety
and abby for the various appointive
positions. His latest appointment Of
MI Ingersoll, CAPABLE and highly re-
spected Red River Valley farmer, for

Board, proves the assertions we have

The democrats had an awful scrap
in congress last week on the Panama
tolls repeal bill. Both Speaker Clark
and majority leader Underwood were
arrayed against President Wilson on
this question, but as usual the Pres
ident came out ahead. The bill car
ried in the house by majority OF sc
votes-220 democrats and rs republi-
cans, including Congressman Steener-
son supporting the president. Min
nesota congressman who voted for
the bill were: SteenersOn, Miller, Vol
stead, Lindbergh, Stevens, Davis, An
derson and Hammond: against the
bill: Manahan and Smith AS far as
Mr. Manahan is concerned, he has
perhaps too much Irish in him to
pass by an opportunity. as he probab-
ly thought it was, of twisting the tail

Minneapolis has been selected as
one of the cities in which u. S. re-

naturally feels as elated as a five
year-old boy with his toy bank re-
ceived at Christmas time. And the
whole Northwest rejoices with Min
neapo1is and congratulates her upon
capturing this plum. The trick was
done, not because she was Minneap-
oils, but because she had tributary to
her a vast region that for wealth and
natural resources, both developed and
undeveloped, cannot be surpassed on
