pared by Mrs. Noah Pearcy Of Thayer
street. These fruits are prepared in
the modern, or European way, as DR..
Gilmore terms it. He has also good
assortment of the same native fruits
prepared in the original Indian, or
American, way, which consisted prin-
cipally of drying in the natural form,
pounding into pulp or powder or form
ing into cakes, by squeezing the fruit
through the hands. DR.. Gilmore is
still in need of samples of wild straw

of forty years ago the fruits which
they found ready to hand on the

Washington, D. c., DC ober For
two years the United States depart
ment of agriculture has been engaged
in the biggest school-teaching job
ever conceived in the worlds history!
On May s, 1914, the Smith-Lever
agricultural extension act became
law. 1t recognized new class OF
pupils-grown men and women work
all day to make a living on the farm
as we'll as farm boys and girls,
and proposed to take to the average
farmer all the information developed
by the experts of the states and the
nation in every department Of farm
work and induce him to apply it to
his individual farm.
Carried out, this policy would rev.
olutionize agriculture. The act makes
available more than $S,000,000 annual.
~, and places the brains of the states
and the nation at the disposal OF the
humblest farmer.
At least IS per cent of the funds
must be spent right out on the farms
amonk the farmers.
The agricultural department and
the state agricultural colleges have
been working together to carry out
the act. Demonstrations are conduct
ed by county agents-skilled agricul'
tural leaders placed in each county
to devote their entire time, thought
and energy to the agricultural de-
velopment of the locality. .''
Does a farmer went to know what
kind of crop to plant? He asks the
county agent.
Does he want to know the best way
to build silo? The county agent
will tell him. Is he thinking of dig.
ging a new we'll? The county agent
will advise him.
Up to the present time there have
been assigned 1850 men and 40 won.
en- county agents. These men and
women have hundreds of department
and state specialists always at their
beck and call to consult on special
farming problems. Under Secretary

ELECTION OBSERVATIONS

hN We h0NC NNN0cANtohy ~
marked before the Weston Lead.
er and the Saturday Evening
Post have more than two million
circulation weekly and each leads
in its respective field, Our val
ued contemporary supplies us
this week with the following edi-
torial whieh-although written
prior to the election-sizes up
the situation so well that We
have decided TO reprint il rather
than go TO the trouble on a busy
week of writing one of our own.
We trust that the Post will APP
preciate this distinction:
II was a painfully flat cam
paign. Everybody says so. The
Republican attack created about
as much excitement as the spec
tacle Of a man cutting a hickory
log with a dull saw. This impress
sion of it is so much a matter of
common report that-no partisan
bias can be implied in saying it.
Why a man of Mr.. Hughes
known ability and experience
showed so little edge as a candi-
date has been the subject of
many learned explanations by
those who sympathized with him
and those who did not.
Now there are many subjects
in which the public is interested;
and one obvious fact is that the
Republican management woeful-
ly misread the public mind.
They thought it was truculently
heroic, and writhing under a
sense of national disgrace, when,
in fact, it was merely sensible.
1t saw the United States, after
more than two years of world
war, at peace and on as good
terms with the world as could
possibly be expected. In respect
of the most trying issue the war
had brought us. this country had
imposed its conditions upon Ger
many, after couching them in
language such as one nation sell
dom uses to another. Submar-
ines were operating as we said
they must. In view of that fun
damental fact, whether or not
we might safely have pulled a
few more tail feathers out of the
German eagle seemed unimpor-
tant. We were submitting to
some indignities from the Allies,
but a rather wide sympathy
with their cause, our patent pow
erlessness to coerce them on the
sea-, and the torrent of money
they were pouring into our lap
eft us the alternative Of patient
negotiations or committing a J
sort of moral and material hari-
kari. With regard to Europe,
n short. the situation was as sat :
as could reasonably be ,
hoped for.
The country understood that Q
md accepted it. Impassioned
,ratory about futile protest n
against the invasion of Belgium,
IN impossible prevention of the s

our own conditions up Q
