TAYLOR'S SUCCESSOR

That we should endorse the candi-
dacy of N. c.. Macdonald for superin-
tendent of public instruction might be
attributed to his being local man.
While this is one of the reasons, it is
not the only reason; neither it is the
principal one.
For several years Mr.. Macdonald's
work as inspector of rural and consoli-
dated schools has brought him into
contact with the patrons and pupils of
these schools of the state. These con.
stitute 80 per cent of the states school
population, and he knows their needs
as no other person can know. His de-
sire and ambition has been to bring
the efficiency of these schools to a
point where graduates from the eighth
grade and high school will be fully
competent to enter higher institutions
of learning with good foundation
for such work. He has attained mark
ed success in this field, and should be
be chosen to head the department Of
public instruction, his position would

the milk he formerly got from his
scrub herd. Furthermore, the quality
of the milk has improved, and he de-
mands and gets the price Of first
class article.
The largely increased net income
which this farmer now receives from
the sale of milk and of purebred cattle
is based on the comparatively small
changes in his type of farming, which
have augmented his business without
entailing any increase in the size OF
his farm.
A comparison of this farm WITH
other dairy farms recently studied by
the department indicates that the ex
ample of this Wisconsin man NIGH
we'll be followed, IN general, by any
dairy farmer who lives where dairy
products are high priced and who has
a low-grade herd, provided he has
sufficient knowledge of cattle to give
high.class dairy cows the care thai
they demand.

FARMsTEAD IMPROVEMENT

The size of farm business is not
necessarily measured or limited by the
number of acres in farm. One of
the field men of the agricultural de.
partment, engaged in farm-survey
work, reports the case of Wisconsin
farmer, so situated as to make it i'm
possible for him to buy or rent more
land, who solved the problem of small
acreage by speeding up the 80 acres
that he had.
This farmers first move was TO dis
pose of his scrub COWS and to replace
them with grades and purebreds !;
next, without great expense, he i'm
proved the sanitary condition of his
barns. He established cropping sys-
tenn based on corn and alfalfa, choos-
ing the latter rather than clover be-
cause on his farm it produces at least
so per cent more feed per acre than
does clover, and is much more de-
pendable.
Pastures have now entirely disap-
peared from his farm, because it's
owner has demonstrated that one acre
of corn and one of alfalfa together
furnish him with more feed than do
five acres Of pasture. His improved,
well-fed herd, housed in clean, we'll.
lighted, and thoroughly ventilated
barn, is yielding him more than double

Christmas colors while poinsettias &C.

was enjoyed, the color scheme being
carried out in the table decorations as
we'll as in the viands. After dinner the
evening was spent in sewing and con-
versation, interspersed with some
brisk guessing contests. The guests
included number of teachers from
the Richie school and some young Ia
dies of the city, all of whom report a
most pleasant time.

enable him to further the needed as
sistance and guidance of the rural
schools.
That the rural schools Of North Da'
kota are below par is generally known
That Mr.. Macdonald would be prop
er person to bring them up to RANK
must be conceded.
His long and successful work in his
present position, his school and uni
versity education, and his pleasing ad
dress and personality are factors tha
should make him a most acceptable
candidate. With such qualifications
and with a clear vision of the needs
and requirements of the position, w
believe his nomination and election
would be merited promotion.

FARM COOPERATION

Grand Forks Herald: AT its closing
session in Chicago the National Con-
ference on Marketing and Farm Cred
its adopted a resolution for the ap-
pointment of central committee to
aid in organizing cooperative socle-
ties among the farm producers OF e?-
cry county in the United States. The
action taken is no doubt correctly
described by the chairman of the con-
ference, President McVev of the Uni
versity of North Dakota, rs the great
est cooperative movement in the his
tory of the world.
The magnitude of the enterprise
proposed can be appreciated only by
those VINO are thoroughly familiar
with the agricultural industries of the
United States, with it's production of
billions of bushels of grain and Its
enormous production of live stock,
fruits, poultry. and scores Of other
items which enter into the list. Man.
ifestly the organization Of such vast
business is an immense undertaking,
and it must be remembered that great
bodies move slowly.
There is apt to be, in such matters,
an impatient demand for immediate
results, and many a splendid move
ent has meen wrecked by this impa-
thence. Because Of. it, ill-considered
plans have been adopted, later to
prove unsatisfactory and unavoidable.
A big movement needs bis thinking
and big planning.
In the meantime, the existence Of
plans for a great work of this kind
presents no reason why the work of
local organizations for cooperation
along wise lines should MT be pushed
where it has already beer started. Ex-
listing cooperative societies for the
marketing of various products have
already demonstrated the value of the
cooperative principle as applied to
this line of work. And ti.0se associa-
tions have been most successful here,
as abroad, which aim to utilize to the
full every business agency of the
community.

GROWING OLD

A little more tired at close of day;
A little less ANXIOUS to have our way;
A little less ready to scold and blame;
A little more care for a brothers
name.
And 50 we are nearing the journeys
end,
Where time and eternity meet and
blend.
A little less care for bonds and gold;
A little more zest in the days of old;
A broader view and a saner mind,
And little more love for all man
kind;
A little more careful of what we say
And so we are faring a-down the way
A little more love for the friends Of
youth;
A little less zeal for established truth
A little less thirst for the daily news;
And so we are folding our tents away
And passing in silence at close of day
A little more leisure to sit and dream
A little more real the things unseen
A little bit nearer to those ahead,
With visions of those long loved and
dead:
And so we are going where all must
go,
To the place the living may never
know. ~.
A little more laughter, little more
And we shall have told our increasing
years; a......

are said,

dead. .....

say,

I'd like to say little word
! About the fearful i'll
Of war unto your soldiermen.
Just let me in a trench
I'll tell them they are horrid when
| They fight the gentle French.
Said Peaceful Mister Henry Ford
To Russia's Warlike Car,
I wish that you'd put up the sword
And end this dreadful war.
Just let me tell your mojiks straight
The war is on the blink,
And quickly they will arbitrate
And stop the war, think.
Said Peaceful Mister Henry Ford
To Gentle George the Five,
The war you rage is much abhorred,
tell you, man alive.
Just let me speak to Kitchener
And tell him what I know,
And he will beat swift retreat
Because I told him so.
And all the kings and potentates
Said, "Hen;" you must be right;
We never thought of all our hates
In such a gloomy light.
Just tell our men they're foolish
'Hen,'
They'll put their guns away;
Had you not come, it looks, by gum,
We'd fought till grim doomsday."
