al agent, should be known as a doctor
Of things agricultural, for he is to the
farmer what the family doctor is to the
physical welfare of the farmer and his
family. He is the trusted agent,
friend and consellor of the farmers
with whom he works. The demonstra-
tions fostered by an able county agent
lead to community ideals, community
spirit and community team work.
county agent is man of practical
farm experience with an agricultural
education, working under the joint d.
rection of the farmers, the state agri-
cultural college and the United States
Department of Agriculture, to assist in
determining the best agricultural prac-
tees for the community in which he
is located. 1t will give me great pleas

such a man.

adjoining counties.

No doubt the readers of this de-

appeared several weeks ago about the
cattle Tracey North was feeding on
his farm north of Vail. The cattle
were shipped recently to Chicago.
There were fifteen car loads of them
and they averaged about 1900 pounds
and brought $3.50 per hundred, which
made Tracey some money. He bought
257 head of calves at Omaha and now
has them on the farm They will be

about the same number of cattle as he
shipped.

Especial. )-As chief OF
naval operations. it is said in the
service, more or less loosely, that the
duty of Admiral William S. Benson is
teaching Josephus Daniels what a
navy is and should be. If that is the
case it is fortunate that the two
sOutherners get on cordially together
while Benson's alertness and capacity
are unquestioned.
Admiral Benson is n Georgian by
birth. Unlike the records of some
other officers, not much of his is pub
lished in Who's Who" for which the
biographer furnisheth what material
be lieteth. Admiral Benson simply
says he served on various assignments
afloat in all duties, as high as division
and squadron commander; was com
mandant Of the Philadelphia navy
yard, 19l3-15, and has been chief OF
operations since May II. 1915. He goes
on to list his clubs. among which are
the Union League. the Catholic Club
OF New York and the New York Yacht
club.
Among the many facts he does n OF
give are distinguished service in the
Schley relief expedition that rescued
Greedy in the Arctic; a fine record as
commandant of midshipmen at Annap-

Chancellor Elliott witnessed the fray
from the sidelines, sticking until the

Witt fielded his position well, though
naturally handicapped in throwing to
first. He stopped two hot smashes
that looked like hits.
Charlie Gray. the basketball star,
made two sensational catches of flies
in short right, cutting off sure safties.
1daho's lead-off man, Gray, hit a
hard grounder to Loranger in his first
time up. Gossman, the Bruin lead off
man, singled to start the game, but
was caught stealing.
Freak plays were frequent. Evans
hit a hot one to Gossman, who missed
the ball. Evans rounded first, and
Sanderson, coming up fast behind
Gossman. grabbed tho ball and with a
snap throw caught Evans before he
could return to first. Later in tho

SIDE TALKS
Good Tastes Versus Good Taste
BY RUTH CAMERON

''You know I've always had things nice,'' heard woman say the other day. "and I simply can't bear cheap things.
 That remark was the preliminary to giving an order for an expensive piece of goods. ...T know ought to buy something cheaper" she added. after she had given the order to charge and send and turned away from the counter, but couldn't bear it. sometimes wish I didn't have good taste.' <
 Poor lady, as if good taste were ever a hardship to any one.
 Many People Confuse Expensive
 Tastes With Good Taste
 1 suspect she was making the mis- take that a great many people make. that of confusing good taste with ex- pensive tastes.
 Good taste and expensive taste are far from identical
 At the most. they are only distant ly related, if at all. For good taste is bred out of love of beauty by good judgment, whereas expensive tastes are bred out of love of anything ex- pensife by the desire to outshine one'4 neighbors.
 I happen to know man and his
