listened patiently.
Tell me, Uxbridge, who will attack
the first tomorrow or Bonaparte?"
Undoubtedly Bonaparte."
We'll, Bonaparte hasn't given me
any idea of his projects, and as my
plans depend upon his plans, how can

These short courses are de-
signed to be educativc and
they will deal with practical
questions concerning farming
and farm business, the rural
home and the interdepcndencc
existing between the farmer,

all classes of society.
The problems to be elucidat-
ed strike deeply into our every

of our society, business men,

IaPAN NOT WELL UNDERSTOOD
Eastern Empire Has Through the
Centuries Retained Keen Sense
of Its Individuality.

japanese history has been the rec
ord OF a practically uninterrupted "a
cal life. The islands which consti-
tute the empire OF Japan have not only
never been conquered, they have
never been invaded, writes Hamilton
W. Mabie in the Outlook
The emperor now reigning is the
122d Of his dynasty; the development
of the life of the people, whatever
its limitations and defects. has been
uninterrupted by disturbance from
without 1t has been deeply influenced
by Asiatic ideals and conventions; but
the foreign ideals and manners which
have found acceptance by the Jap
anese have made their way by rcrsua-
sion, not by arms
Japan differs radically from the
other countries of the East i'll It's pos
session of a sensitive national con-
sciousness and of a thorough and MIN
ute social and political organization.
In this respect it stands IN striking
contrast to other oriental countries.
So far as the feeling OF radical unity
and the consciousness OF sharply de-
fined national aims and interests are
concerned, India and China have been
mere geographical terms, conveying
no such group of ideas, convictions,
and mental habits as the word Italy,
France and England convey.
Japan, on the other hand, has as
keen a sense of its individuality, so as
to speak. as any western nation; and
in point OF thoroughness of orsaniza-
ton stands beside Germany. The i'm
mense significance of this fact has
not yet been recognized in the West.

1.-THE Ideal Catalogue"

A librarians idea of the most useful
form of catalogue for library is given
as follows:
THE ideal catalogue for a public IL
brary is one published with one line
entries, each being about twice as long
as the average newspaper column is
wide. This catalogue IS published in
the form Of a newspaper, on cheap
paper, cheaply printed. 1t is sold by
the library at about two cents a
copy. The copies sold are soon worn
out or thrown away and do not come
back in after years to vex the librar.
ian. The library keeps the whole
thing in type, takes out some titles ev.
cry month. adds new ones, and prints
new edition. This catalogue con.
tains author entries only. If a man
wishes to know anything about the
books in the public library that this
catalogue does not tell he goes to the
library and finds out by asking; if he
wishes information concerning books
on certain subject he goes to bibli.
ography of that subject; if he wishes
to know certain specific things about
certain books he asks to see the books
themselves"

Look Ahead.

There are some people who ride all
through the journey of life with their
backs to the horses heads. They are
always looking into the past. They
are forever talking about the good
old times. and how different things
were when they were young. There is
no romance in the world now, and no
heroism. The very winters and sum-
mers are nothing to what they used to
be; in fact, life is altogether on a
small, commonplace scale. Now, that
il miserable sort Of thing 1t brings
3 kind of paralyzing chill over life,
and petrifles the natural spring of joy
that should be forever leaping up to
meet the fresh new mercies that the
day keeps bringing.

OF all the vacations purSu-
el by man farming is most
important, and vet it IS about
the only ole which nen feel
perfectly qualified to enter
without previous preparation.
The shoemaker, the brick
layer, the carpenter, devote
long years to preparation and
study before they undertake
the responsibilities of their
trades, but it is assumed that
any old thing" is qualified
to be a farmer. Isn't it
perfectly plain that this one Of
the explanations of the back
wardness of Southwest Louis
lana, from all agricultural
standpoint.
In order to be a capable
farmer one must devote time
and study to the subject just
as he would be required to do
should he desire to become a
physician, a lawyer or a
banker.
Every country boy ought to
be educated at 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 Agriculture 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
Louisiana.
AS soon as the plan was
agreed upon the Manager of
the Southwest Louisiana
Development Bureau com-
municated with Dean Dodson
and asked that three of these
short courses be held in this
section of Louisiana. In re-
spouse advices were received
from Professor Dodson to the
effect that one of these courses
will be held at Jennings,
December II, IS, and 10. The
sessions will extend through
three days and the following
