F. Houston overmuch? Well, the
proof or the disproof of the validity
of the praise is to be found every
where through the farming regions of
the United States. Nobody knows bet
ter than the present-day farmer what
Mr.. Houston has tried to do and has
done. Every housewife on the farm
will make answer to the question as to
whether praise has been wrongly
placed or not. The records are writ
ten over every field in the United
States. Their pages easily are turned
and the print is large.
The secretary of agriculture Is
blunt man when bluntness is an es-
sential to imparting a lesson. He does
not believe in notifying men with
soft words when hard words are nee
essary. Politicians do not get any
great amount of satisfaction out Of
him when they are seeking their own
ends. Here is story in point that
was written by Arthur w. Page.
"A member of congress from the
middle, West asked the secretary to
get rid 9f the department agent who
was at work In his district. The sec
retary refused. But that did not end
the matter. A local attack hampered
the work. The secretary investigated
the situation, satisfied himself that the
agent was not at fault, and then
wrote to the member of congress that
the work could not be done properly
while this attack was going on, and
that under the circumstances the de-
partment would withdraw from the
district altogether.
He mailed a copy of this letter to
, the governor of the state and to the
rest of the congressional delegates
from that state. They Immediately
notified him that it would not be nee
essary to withdraw the agent. The
state legislature went even further,
and passed unanimous resolution in
dorsing the agricultural departments
work in the state"
Now it must be understood that
when some members of congress can
not do what they like in the way OF
influencing the heads of the govern
| ment departments they can resort, if
they want to. to the petty revenge of
1
enlarging the good work of the depart
ment whose secretary has incensed
them. Secretary Houston never seems
to have worried much about the ap-
preparation matter IS it might be af-
fected by the action of men who knew
what they wanted and couldn't get It,"
The truth is that the motives of men
usually are lnada plain when 1t comes
to antagonizing good work, and most
men are afraid to have their motives
| turned to the sun. The result Is that
| courageous secretaries of departments
| in Washington usually have no trouble
because they have dared to stand out
against purely political importunities.
David Franklin Houston was abso-
lutely unknown in political circles
| when President Wilson called him to
Washington. He was known, however,
to educators and to scientific men gen
orally all over the United States.

tary Houston was big enough to have
the truth told about him also said that
the secretary Is volcano, seemingly
slumbering one, perhaps, but one
which has within 1t the potentialities
which one usually ascribes to Vesu-
vius and the other peaks of fire. Men
who know the secretary cannot under
stand why he is called cold. The rea-
son is simply that he is cold to the
representation of things whose worth
cannot be proved.
There is another view OF Secretary
Houston which Is taken by some men
who do not get next to him, or per-
haps better, into him. Generally
speaking, man who has no sense of
humor is an impossible man. Some
persons think that the secretary of ag-
riculture lacks appreciation of real hui
NOR. While Mr.. Houston is of Scotch
descent. Sydney Smiths joke about
the necessity of a surgical operation

to the case of David F. Houston. He
| is fonder of good stories and fonder
| Of telling them than perhaps any other
man in the presidents cabinet. 1t is
| said of him, however, that, true to his
Temperament, he analyzes a story to
| find out first whether it has humor's
real ingredients before he will accept
II as one worth retelling. In this way
| the secretary avoids the fate of the
| man who tells stories at which other
people laugh only because they feel
that they must do SO in order to be
complimentary to the raconteur.

laid hand on authority Is the "tremen-

The growth Of the activities of the

States since Mr.. Houston has taken
hold is of the kind usually called phe-
nomenal. There is no attempt on the
part of the secretary or any of his
subOrd1nates to take away. from pre.
ceding administrations the credit for
initiative. What was found to be good
has been accepted as good, and what
is more, has been put into operation.

va M of friend, confidant
s$ and an admirer of David
Franklin Houston, secre-
tary of agriculture in the cabinet of
Woodrow Wilson.
The secretary's friend had no
thought of small traits in the charac-
ter of Mr.. Houston. What he meant
was that certain things which have
been dwelt upon by critics of the tenn
permanent and the methods of work of
Mr.. Houston should be set forth 30
that the proper light might fall upon
them and thus lay bare the facts to
eve and mind.
David Franklin has been criticized.
Why? Well, the answer isn't hard.
He is an idealist who believes that his
idealism can be realized only after the
proof has been adduced that 1t really
Is idealism. Consequently Mr.. Hous-
ton Is not dreamer of dreams whose
fabrics are baseless. He Is OF Scotch
blood and is hard headed, and as a
result good many of the visionaries
OF the country who see glory gliding
the castles which they rear in the air.
cannot understand why the secretary
of agriculture does not Instantly see

dor of MONDAY"
The department OF agriculture since
Mr.. Houston took hold of it, has
broadened the field of its endeavors.
Many things have been done. Some
Of fhom aro thin Uo which tho dra, n,
ers of the years have urged should be
done. Everything bearing trace of
the imprint of worthiness that has
been suggested has been subjected to
the test of critical analysis. Some of
the dreamers have been disappointed
because this thing or that thing has
not been done, but they may know
that the test has been applied and that
the proof of lasting worthiness has
been lacking.
There seems to be sort of general
impression that Secretary Houston ia
cold man. The presumption of his
coldness comes unquestionably from
the fact that he is SO intensely scien-
tific and analytical. The Missionaries
go to him bubbling over with their
dreams of what can be done to bring
the millennium of their desires to farm
and field. They are SO convinced that
the vision they have seen from the
mountain tops is real that they count
the man who listens but declines in
stant and exuberant acceptance of the
truth of their dreams. as man who
is cold and unresponsive. Little do
they know. at any rate for long time.
