Rumania'S Robin Hood

History has queer way of repeating itself Old
English ballads and stories are full of the doings
Of certain outlaw named Robin Hood who robbed
the rich and gave to the poor What was prob
ably merely legend in England has become fact in
Rumania, where all the police in that troubled king
dom have been mobilized to capture certain no
torious robber named Terente.
They have secured the country for him. They
have offered big reward for his head. But they
are skcptical Of their success, because like his
famous English prototype, Tercnte has always been
good to the poor.
There is widespread conviction among the lower
classes that he is their champion against the in
justice. the corruption and the brutality of Ru-
manan offcialdom. He translates into action Tia
revolt that is seethng in their hearts. He strikes
where they fear to lift hand. The result is that
they would do anything for him. They will feed
him. They will give him nights lodging. They
will guide him to safe hiding places They will put
the police off by false scents. Terente is their
hero. Two hundred years from now the common
folk will be singing ballads about him.

Where the Alfalfa Waves
(St. Paul Dispatch)

More than 100000 acres of North Dakota land
are planted to alfalfa this year. Compare that
with the 1929 Of 1925 or with the SO 1856
acres of 1920 and draw your own conclusions of
what is happening in North Dakota.
No small amount of irritation was noted anon.
the farmers of that state under the preachments of
more cattle and hogs at time when cattle and
hog feed was scarce. Farmers were induced to buy
livestock and found themselves without means to
feed the animals. This year it will be different.
With feed provided, the livestock can be bought
with safety and assurance of profit instead of a
loss. The farmer knows his business and seeks his
way to money naturally as tree roots seek un-
foreground moisture.
What has helped, this year, in the sowing of
alfalfa has been the difficulty Of seeding wheat in
sections that had too much rain and late spring
weather. 1t gave alfalfa chance for considera-
ton. And this sort Of weather will make the al
fafa crop tremendous one. That is not the only
advantage. The SOIL rested from wheat, will be
almost rehabilitated for next year.
There are three distinct profits in the deal: the
direct profit from alfalfa and livestock; the profit
in renewed soil; the profit in restricted acreage
of wheat. which will insure a higher price for
wheat. Canada's western provinces have reduced
their wheat acreage Is per cent this year The
northwest farmer is doing his bit, ALSO with alfalfa

Not an Issue Here
Grand Forks Herald)

According to the executive committee of the or
ganzation opposed to prohibition in North Dakota,
the prohibition question will be made "real ISSUE
in the next state campaign. 30
With all due respect to this committee we don't
believe it will be anything of the sort, any more
than it was real issue at the last session of the
legislature For any proposal to be made real
issue in any campaign there must be a reasonable
amount of public sentiment supporting it, and there
IS very little sentiment in North Dakota for the
repeal or radical modification of the state prohi-
bition laws
In the last campaign the only interest attached
to the candidate who made his bid for the United
States senatorship anti-prohibition platform
was in connection with the question of which of the
other candidates he would draw the most votes
FROM In this sense only his candidacy was an
issue in the campaign. He received only about
seven per cent Of the total vote cast on the sena-
torshp.
II the leaders Of the wet movement wish to put
in circulation petitions fer the repeal Of the state
prohibition laws, and to enter wet" candidates in
the political race they have perfect right to do
so. Similarly they would have right to circu
late petitions calling for the burning down of the
state capitol. The latter move would have about
as much chance for success as the former as things
now stand
Under these circumstances which must be recog-
nized at least by the heads Of the North Dakota
anti-prohibition forces. the question may well be
asked why they are willing to spend time and
money in an attempt which is obviously doomed to
failure. The most obvious answer II that they may
either Be acting in the interest Of other ele.
mont which expects to benefit politically BY the IN.
lection Of the prohibition question into the next
campaign. or may BE- merely representing outside
interests "a which such campaign IN North Dakota

OF 5OO,40OOO0 trees were planted this year on
state land, while 100000 were set out by private
individuals, counties, cities towns, villages, school
districts, boy scouts, sportsmcn's clubs and other
organizations.
This is truly an impressive and inspiring record
of one states effort to prevent the denuding of
our forest lands. Coupled with the large purchases
OF forests by the state Of New York in the pas
few years. this shows a very progressive effort
on the part Of the empire state and one to be com
mended highly.
The work accomplished in New York state should
be an example to other states which have Jagged
behind rather badly on programs for reforestation
and conservation, and in many states where start
has been made the work has not been well planned
The result is less unsatisfactory COM
promise wherein nothing is really accomplished
The problem Of reforcstation and of conscrva
ton Of present forest land is puzzling one, but
is one that must be solved The most difficult fea-
ture is the avoidance of duplication Of effort
This can only be accomplished by the state itself
having definite and comprehensive program
worked out in advance, in which each step is def
nitely planned to accomplish certain result This
is the way New York state has evolved the program
which is working out we'll there.
