A LEARNED PROFESSION
V. G. Backman. Editor

1t is generally conceded that there
are three so-called learned profess
sions followed by men today, namely,
law, medicine and theology There
was time, during the age of Living
ston, when men, who desired to be
influential and learned chose one of
two professions. Either they became
clergyman or a lawyer. But finally
medicine began to lift itself above
common witchery and superstitious
herb boiling and other quaint and
mysterious methods of healing, and
began TO assume something of the
character of a science. Anatomy,
physiology, hygeine, bacteriology, and
chemistry became seriously related to
the art of healing, and physicians who
were competent to command the re-
spect and confidence of the public,
cut of necessity were obliged to ac-
quire so broad and complete an un-
aerstanding of the human system and
other great sciences that in their at
tempt to master their profession they
most naturally became learned and to
such extent that the profession of
medicine was finally exalted to the
dignity of a learned profession
Writers of great fame were gen
orally lawyers, clergymen, or physi-
clans, or occasionally men of univer-
sity education who were devoting
The twice-a-week Twin Falls times., 1917-10-25

their lives in scientific research. The
matter of material science has in the
last few decades taken a place of i'm
portance that has made it one OF the
most prominent features of civilized
economy. 1t has found it's way into
the manufacture of food stuffs, into
production of great machines, into in
vention, business, journalism, law
medicine, and even theology. So gen
eral has science become that it can
hardly be classified as a profession,
as learned as it may be. Yet in all
professions it has become an essential
factor.
Perhaps we might classify teaching
as profession, but most teachers are
merely teachers of one or more of the
general professions of men that we
have named. However, there has
arisen, during the past century, slow
ly, but surely into prominence, a new
profession. In essence it has always
been a profession since time immem-
orable, but the drudgery, the lowli-
ness, the poverty incurred in it, the
general ignorance of its followers,
have made it rather a trade, a source
of keeping out of the hands of pure
charity, than a profession, and GER
tainly it was not learned profession.
We speak here of farming
1t seemed to have taken the world
long time to realize that agricul-
ture was the basic occupation of the
human race, and the one great source
of human existence and happiness.
But with steady increase of popula-
tion, especially in those centers of the
/ wi 70
vorable for the prosperity and happi-
ness of the people, with the growth
of great congested centers of popula-
| ton, where every article of food and
/ clothing consumed must be bought and
paid for, came the recognition of a
great dependence upon the farmer and
his lands. Agriculture was thus nat
urally exalted and the farmer dignifi-
ed among the various classes of peo-
pie.
1t can hardly be said that the far
mer dignified himself, but rather
those great forces OF the population
who found themselves dependent upon
him, because of their demands for his
products, and their dependence upon
him, brought the farmer to the reali-
zation that his place and work was
an exalted place and an occupation
worth the respect and obeisance of the
entire human race.
Thus the farmer found himself en-
gagged in a dignified profession, and
realizing the fact he naturally as
sumed a respectful Independent air,
the air of a gentleman who realized
the fact that scores of human beings
were dependent upon him for their ex-
istence.
There always comes with the reali-
zation of ones own Importance in life,
a natural desire to fit oneself for the
place he holds and so the farmer took
adantage of his spare moments and
became a student of the general af-
fairs of his country and the people
with whom he was obliged to deal.
But the demands of the populace be-
gan to increase, and he soon found
The twice-a-week Twin Falls times., 1917-10-25

himself obliged to produce two fold
the crops he had been in the habit of
producing in order to meet their de-
mands. He must know more about
his profession; he must profit by their
experiments, their failures and sue
cesses.
Hence arose the demand for farm
journal, a paper devoted to the news
of the farm, to the experiments and
experiences of agricultuists from all
voted to scientific farming to the
very problems that the farmer was
forced to meet and solve.
Yet the demand continued to in
crease, and so great did it become
that the government was obliged to
Great a department in its administra-
ton that should devote its time diff
fusing among the people of the Uni
ted States useful information on sub
iects connected with agriculture in
the most general and comprehensive
sense of that term, and procure, prop
agate and distribute among the peO-
pie new and valuable seeds and
plants. This department has charge
OF the weather bureau which forecasts
the weather; it conducts the inspec-
ton of animals and meat and food
products when these are subjects of
interstate commerce; it studies plant
life in all its relations to agriculture
and gives to farmers the benefit of
it's Investigations; it has charge of
the forests belonging to the United
States it collects informations as to
crops; it investigates soils and OBJ
tains information regarding insects
which injure crops and plants. And
during late years has taken upon its
shoulders in many instances the irri-
cation prospects for the redemption
of arid districts, and has conducted
experimental farms.
Moreover the government has also
taken upon its shoulders the RESPONSE
bility of erecting and equiping agricul-
tural colleges, where the farmer can
spend three or four years of his early
life and enable himself to leep full
fledged into the modern methods of
scientific farming. without spending
years of the most precious part of his
life learning by experience, what hun
dreds before him have learned by the
same process.
Farming has immerged from the old
time peasantry into the dignified
realm of a science. 1t has become a
highest type of education. The mod
ern farmer no longer looks upon his
fields as the place of his drudgery,
and mere source of his living, but
rather as his labratory whereon he
The twice-a-week Twin Falls times., 1917-10-25

experiments, trys out his ideas and
methods. and the ideas and methods
of others. to see if they will produce
paying results To be sure he en-
Joys them as the source of his in
come, but he is a scientist, not a
common laborer. The world looks to
him and to his discoveries and pro-
ductions, and inventions if you please,
for the source of its living, while he
could in many respects live indepen-
dent of the rest of the world.
The farmer of the twentieth cen
tury is a man, or should be, man OF
learning. He must know his business,
and the peculiarities of nature. He is
a student of nature and strives to
bring nature to her best possibilities.
The Encyclopaedia Britannica
commenting on farming as a profess
sion of learning says, But the mere
possession of capital does not qualify
a man for being a farmer, nor is there
any virtue inherent in a lease to in
sure its success. To these must be
added probity, knowledge of his bust
ness, and diligence in prosecuting it.
These qualifications are the fruits of
good education lin the fullest sense
OF that term, and are, no more to be
looked for without it than good crops
without good husbandry. Common
school instruction will, of course,
form the ground work of farmers
education: but to this should be add
ed, if possible, a classical curriculum.
II has been the fashion to ask, "Of
what use are Greek and Latin to a
farmer?" Now, apart from the bene-
fit which it is to him, in common
with other men, to know the struc-
ture of language, and to read with in
telligence the literature of his profes-
sion, which more and more abounds
in scientific Technology, we believe
that no better discipline for the youth
full mind has yet been devised than
the classical course which is now in
use in the universities. Of this dis
cipline we desire that every future
farmer should have the advantage.
And why should not the farmer have
the advantage of a classical education,
of a scientific education, of that COM
plete rounded out education that alone
can qualify a man to look up the
problems of the world and upon his
relations to them with broad and in
telligent understanding of their signif-
icance and of his place in their solu-
ton. The farmer stands at the head
of the best society on earth. of the
biggest business on earth, the bust
ness of feeding the earth, the source
to which all society looks for its liv-
ing.

LOCAL BOYS RECEIVE PROMOTION

Word has just been received from
Carl Emmerson and George Hills to
the effect that both boys have just re-
ceived promotion to positions of trust
and honor in the service to which they
have dedicated themselves.
Carl Emmerson, according to re-
Gently received latter is now Lance
Corporal in his company, and George
Hills has received the first honor
airy promotion of the private soldier
to what is known as the first class
private. Emmerson is now located at
Fort Baker, and Hills at Fort Scott.
Both boys left Kimberly early last
spring to engage their services for the
nation.
Mrs. V. G. Backman has just receiv-
ed word through her visiting sister
that her brother Oswald F. Ferguson
has received promotion to first lieu
tenant in the navy department and is

HEAVY FRUIT LOSSES
RESULT OF RECENT FREEZES

The recent hard freeze that swept
over this section of the country last
week was disastrous to many of the
local fruit growers. One orchard re-
ports over fifteen carloads of apples
frozen on the trees, and many grow
ers are complaining of heavy finan-
cial losses ranging in the thousands
as a result of frozen fruit.
Only certain sections of the coun-
try however, seem to have been eff
fected, and only the more tender var
ieties of apples. The Jonathans suf-
fered the most.
The freeze together with lack of
cars for shipment has caused the To-
cal packing houses to lay a part of
their crews off, as they have no place
to put the apples after packing them.

The Kiefer Auto Company will en-
large it's present building and erect
two-story garage to include the TWEEN
ty-five feet additional space adjoining
1t on the east. A deal for the lot now
occupied by the Hamm Brewing Com
pany's barn has been closed and the
lease has been transferred to the Kiefer
company.
Plans for the improvement are now
being made and work will be begun
in a few days on the new structure. 1t
will be an up-to-date garage in every
particular with electrically operated
elevators and individual compartments.
Robert Kiefer left for st. Paul last
night to complete arrangements for the
plans and to place contracts for addi-
tionaI equipment for the new garage.
This is the most important of the
new projects that has been announced
for Moorhead for this year. 1t will be
a decided improvement to Front street
and will help to make Moorhead head
quarters for automobile tourists.
The plan originally was to extend
the garage to cover the corner lot, but
satisfa Glory arrangements could not be
made with the owner of a small cement
structure occupying part of 1t.

FRAZIER BOARD
MAKES DEMANDS

petition for an order against President
Lewis F. Crawford and other mem
bers of the present board of regents,
to show cause why the writ Of custer
should not be issued, on grounds
that they have unlawfully seized and
are holding upon public offices and
properties and rights to which they
are not legally entitled.
The court, after suggesting that Mr..
Lawrence Immediately be communi-
Gated with. in order that a. date for
the hearing or arguments on this Pc
tition nigh be set with as little de-
lay as possible, adjourned until 2
o'clock this afternoon.
The entire proceeding was good ma
tured. The proposed regents and the
present regents were introduced all
around, and exchanged compliments,
and remarked on the weather, just
as any other friends and neighbors
would do. No one became excited,
and the incident passed with compar-
atively few about the capitol build
ing knowing that the demand had
been made.
It is anticipated there will be little
delay in bringing the custer proceed
ings to a head.
