and the acceptance of the designations
of the other four. And there the mat
ter should have dropped. But the
guilty midshipmen brought political
influence to bear on Mr.. Daniels and he
ordered that the decision should be
suspended while he appointed a gen
eral board of inquiry. The only de-
Tense of the guilty men appears to be
that others were also guilty of read
ing the papers. But the spectacle Of
political influence being utilized to
overrule the Superintendent and the
Academic Board is one which is likely
to gravely affect the discipline of the
Academy for long time to come.

Who knows but that some of the
finest strategists and most able spies
are developed for the navy by the
cheating that has been so rudely ex-
posed at the Naval Academy We
have been under the impression that
young men are sent to the Academy
to Learn to win. If the boys have
cheated more than was consistent
with proper professional development,
it would appear that the officers have
something to learn from them.

Ter Dry COuntieS.

Perry County joined the dry"
counties last Friday when Judge
w. N. Seibert refused all of the
sixteen applicants for licenses to
sell liquor. The Judge made his
announcement soon after court
opened Friday morning, stating
that he had refused renewals be-
cause the applications did not
conform to the requirements of
the High License Act and for
cause. A. decree will be filed
later.
With the decision by Judge
William N. Seibert, refusing all
the license applications in Perry
county, ten counties of Pennsyl-
vania are now dry. This, and
the refusal of forty-three old
licenses and 103 new ones in Lu-
zerne County were the big de-
velopments of Friday in the
anti-liquor fight in the State.
Towanda, in Bradford County,
felt the hand of the law on
Thursday, when Judge Maxwell
refused to renew licenses of six
hotels and two restaurants in the
town, which with refused appli-
cations earlier in the week, cut
the number of licenses in the
county from sixty-fve to fifty
two.
In Erie County, Judges Wall
ing and Benson issued an order
closing all saloons outside Erie
City at 10 p. m. instead of at
midnight.
In Montgomery County, where
the non-license campaign has
filed a general remonstrance to
the 250 licenses applied for, on
the grounds that the advertise
ments of the applications were
not in accordance with law, the
real fight will be begun on Mon
day.
The following counties in Penn
sylvania which are now dry"
follow: Green, Lawrence, Bed
ford, Huntingdon, Miflin, Juni-
alta, Venango. Forest, Tioga, and
Perry.
In Union there are only two
saloons and in Indiana County
there is only one.

Narrowing Wheat.

If Indications prove anything,
there will be lot of wheat har-
rowed this spring. We have
heard many say that they are
thinking of trying it. Without
giving any names, we will quote
some of the expressions we have
heard that prove that narrowing
pays. 81 tried breaking the spring
crust with drill set to run be-
tween the rows, but l covered
but an acre or two because was
afraid | was tearing too much
wheat out of root" Another
said Il tried it with a spring
tooth harrow, but lost my nerve
and quit" " Another man Thar
rowed a part of a field with a
slant-tooth harrow. Still anoth-
er man said II left the harrow
out all winter and on the follow
ing spring | hitched to it and
drove diagonally across the field
to the gate" In each and every
instance our informant added
that where the drill, the harrow,
or the thorn bush, was passed
over the wheat, there was the
best wheat in the field" Does
any man want better proof that
it will pay to break the first crust
that forms on the wheatfeld this
spring? Not even the men who
used a spring harrow, or the one
who used a hoe drill, would ac-
knowledge that he had in any.
manner injured his wheat. On
the other hand, all agreed that
the rough treatment had greatly
increased the yield. In parts of
Europe where peasants have the
use of but small plats of ground,
they cultivate the wheat and
raise at the rate of sixty bushels
to the acre.

Because Farmers Are at"

Why don't the city papers urge
the shoemakers, the clothing
manufacturers, the iron mongers
and the manufacturers of other
necessities to make their business
pay better? Why are the farm
ers singled out as the only class
for which the State maintains
costly experimental farms and
schools, and spends thousands of
dollars annually for free litera-
ture, while some little, obscure
bureau of mines, or a commission
of several men to gather statis-
tics in this or that field of COM
merce attracts little attention?
1t is because the production of
food is uppermost in the minds
of the leaders in all nations. 1t
is from the farm that comes the
best of everything, including cit
izenship, for it is said that for
every one hundred positions of
responsibility in New York City
positions where character counts
for as much as ability-sixty of
of them are filled by men who re-
ceived their earliest moral train
ing in the country. The effect
of a campaign of education is re-
sulting in the reversal of the old
order which condemned the
brightest youths to study profes-
sion, while the weaker member
was kept at home where Pa and
Ma could protect him. Science
has developed farming into a pro-
fession, and to-day an educated
and trained mind must guide the
affairs on the farm if full returns
are expected
