SCIENTIFIC FARMING.

Formerly scientific agriculture was
= supposed to be theoretical study
taught by bunch of specialized pro-
fessors who did most Of their farming
on paper.
No farming of that type could be
called scientific Scientific means ac
cording to true knowledge, and all
knowledge is based on actual human
experience. Theories of agriculture that
have not been put to the test on actual
farms under. just such conditions as
the average farmer has to meet are
no good at all. This is perfectly under
stood by the agricultural experts, who
almost invariably are practical men.
Scientific agriculture experiments
should be carried out under average
conditions An experiment station
farm should never be a merely exhibit
ton farm 1t should not be located on
some extra fertile tract, on which crops
are sure to prosper even under adverse
conditions. 1t should be placed on
average soils, where just the same diff
ficulties will have to be met that the
average farmer has to confront. And
no doubt in most cases this is done.
Most Of the farmers around Warren
are doing the best they can to apply
the principles communicated by the
scientists. They are greatly helped by
the newspapers, which all favor. scien-,
tifc methods and popularize them so
far as possible.
The difficulty encountered by the
average farmer is simply that he is SO 9.

WHO GETS THE BENEFIT.

There is a great mystery relating to
all the high prices of this costly epoch.
Everyone is. paying nearly twice AS
much for things as he paid 10 years
ago. And yet no one will admit that
he is profting by the advance, and most
people claim they have not had their
fair share. !, The pulling and hauling of
all elements to get their due proportion
creates constant disturbance and dis
satisfaction and tends to upset business
It is inevitable in so radical change,
that some classes of people should get
very much more than they are entitled
to, while others should get very much
less $3.50, .. -.-,
Many profteering dealers have used
the occasion to jack up prices regard
less of costs. They considered that the
public is thoroughly educated up to
the idea that prices have got to be
high. So they put up their goods re-
gardless of reason. After they have
put them up once and people have for
gotten little about it, then they put
them up again. 800
a similar situation is claimed in some
trades where labor unions control all
the workers and will permit only a
limited number of persons to learn the
trAde. 1T is felt they have put up wages
out Of proportion to the advance IN
living costs, to the great detriment OF
business in their line and section. ~
Many peoples first thought is to have
the government interfere in all these
matters. Yet that often does not work
out at all. Government, officials are
sometimes governed by political consid-
erations, and frequently don't under:
stand situation nearly as well as peo-
pie Oh the ground, who ought to settle
these things themselves in their own
local field. IL. ..S,s +. -
People who show hoggish spirit
generally suffer for it. They drive
trade away which will find channels OF
doing business. In the long run fair
prices and fair play pay best.

agricultural science as he would like to.
The time will come when it will be

STANDING ADVERTISEMENTS.

~ STANDING. ADVERTISEMENTS
Many newspapers take no pains to
have their merchants change their adj
vertising. They allow merchants to
keep, along with the same notice for
months or years. AS the newspaper is
saved expense in resetting, it is a temp
tation for publishers to let it go and
say nothing.
The newspaper wants advertisers to
get the full worth Of their money. To
do that there should be some variety
in their notice. The advertisers that
use it as a news ,announcemnt, giving
an account of special bargains and
values as these appear in their store,
are the ones who get the most value
out Of space, and who usually take the
most space. T.:
The Warren Sheaf would never dis
courage an advertiser from changing

uses his space to feature the develop

bigger business, when he will consist

Still it is foolish to say that the
man who keeps a standing ad week
after week is not getting value. He is,
placing his sign board in a place it is
seen a great many more times than the

constant reminder that he is on the

writer used to wake up and put in a
lawn mower ad about July 4. Then
heswould leave it there until January.
Some one would call his attention to
the fact that it was out of date Then
he would put in an ad on oil heaters,

At the first Christmas hour

Not iron of pride,
But soft humility and rich-veined hope
Cleft from a sunny slope;
And there should be
White charity,
And silvery love, that knows not doubt
nor fear,
70 make the peal more clear;

ere should be joy.
