Applaud Governor Clement.

In the American revolution the
Green Mountain boys did mconven-
tional things in a military way win
ming much credit and a place in his.
tc| Now comes Gov percival ".
Clement of Vermont, as modern
Green Mountain boy utterly uncon-
yentional words and acting unconvan-
tionally in political way.
Gov. Clement says he has been asked
to call an extraordinary session Of
the Vermont legislature that it may
lratity the 18th amendment TO the fed
eral constitution; but, he declares. he
VIII not do so because the legislature
was elected before the amendment
passed congress, therefore woman
suffrage was not an is3ue al the Yer
mont polls when the members were
chosen.
The same condition rules in Ten.
nessee where the governor at the so.
licitation of President Wilson, has de-
cided to hold an extraordinary session
in spite Of the fact that the consti.
tuition Of Tennessee reqiire9 that A
Legislature acting on a federal amend
ment must be elected after the adoB.
ton OF such amendment by congress-.
Senator Warren G Harding, it was
announced had asked the governor of
Vermont, republican to assemble
the legis allure there
The trenchant statements of Gov.
Clement were refreshing. To adhere
to the law with fidelity when to do so
means going against what is appar-
entity the popular tide seems to be
more than many Of cur elected officers
can do. Political expcdicncy is not
only openly practiced; it is popularity
condoned in this free and easy year of
materialsm, profit and pleasure.
In expressing displeasure at Presi
dent Wilson'S recent action in asking
the governor of Tennessee to call the
special session we were unaware OF
Senator iiarding's expression eff inter
est to the governor Of Vermont. II
he understood the limitations in the
Green Mountain state, as the presi.
dent did those of Tennessee. Senator
HardIng5 act was roprchensible. We
do not condone it. Pressure on the
governors of the states for national
political advantage Is IN evil that
should be brayely combattod.
Unfortunately we have gotten away
from the evident intention of the fran
err of the constitution in regard to
amendments The intention was that
the states, through Their legislatures.
should express a free choice. The
modern Interpretation of the radical
Sultragists and some others is that
governors shoul call their legis-
latues and that the legislatures should
ratily simply because the congress
has passed the resolution putting the
decision up to them
Too much emphasis is placed upon
the action OF the congre IS In amend
ments to the constitution that seems

fled the 10th amendment Is no reason
why the Both should set aside Constitu-
tional requirement. in order to expedite
action. The other states have a right
to their free choice, whether they
shall approve or disapnroye. Gov.
Clements decision is wise, his state
ment opp0rtune. His courage puts
him in class with another New Enc,

urged FEED FOR ANY EMERGEN-

stock raising. Even in the west with
its rich short grass, feed must be pro-
vided at least for periods of snow and
storm The higher values and quail

EXPERIMENT STATION NOTES
Pure Bred Bulls Pay

In Kansas and Oklahoma 800 of
the farmers are using scrub bulls, and
only &c of the cattle are pure breds.
It is a demonstrated fact that steers
sired by pure bred males out of grade
or scrub cows are worth $40 to $40
per head more in feed lot when fat
and ready for market than calves out
of the same cows sired by scrub or
a grade bull. 1t has been estimated
that the farmers of Kansas could
make an average of $3.50 more per
farm if they used good pure bred
bulls.

Kansas has men willing 20 try their
hand at farming in the Euphrates
valley and they are applicants for the
thousand acres of land offered by the
farmers of that valley. The appli-
cants are Warren E. Crabtree, son of
Prof. P. E. Crabtree, of Scott City,
and now a student at the Kansas
Agricultural College; and Walter
Snowden, judge of the probate court
of Cove county.
The Kansas headquarters for the
Near East Relief campaign received
word that the Armenians and Syrians
in Asia were so impressed, with the
work of Kansas farmers that they
had pooled one thousand acres of land
to be given to some Kansas farmer
who would come to that country,
farm the land and teach them Amer
lean scientific agriculture.
The usual income of farmer in
that country is S48 year from his
wheat and about an equal sum from
other crops. The most crude methods
of farming are followed. Whoever
will go to that country and actually
teach them farming with practical de-
monstrations of his theories and plans
is to be given clear title to the one
thousand acres of land on which the
experiments will be conducted.
Warren Crabtree has had plenty of
experience in general farming and
helping his father who is engaged in
intensive plant breeding and who
holds the record for the high yields
of sorghums in Scott county. Judge
Snowden has not had an agricultural
college education but knows the Kan
sas farming methods from hard ex-
perience. The two applications have
been sent to the Near East Commit
tee in New York.
