MAY HAVE SHORT COURSE FOR JASPER

This Plan Was Advocated at Farmers' Institute Meeting Held at Rensselaer Friday. The popularity of the agricultural short courses has increased to sfich an extent that it is now planned to hold these courses in several counties of the state next year and at the meeting of the Farmers’ Institute held in Rensselaer Friday the plan was inaugurated to conduct a short course here. For-' Senator L. B. Clore. for several years one of the country’s prize corn growers and a resident at that time of Johnson county, was one of the speakers. He is now the county agent of Laporte county and one of the best com judges and farmers’ institute workers in the state. He gave his sanction to the plan for holding a short course in Rensselaer and it is highly probable that the plan will be adopted. Mr. Clore spoke in the morning #>n corn growing and in the afternoon on the duties of the county agent. He praised the work of County Agent Barrett and said that it would result in great good to the agricultural development of the county. Mrs. R. A. Ogg also spoke at both morning and afternoon meetings and her talks were regarded by those who heard them as of exceptional excellence. Her morning subject was “House Keeping vs. Home Making”, and her afternoon subject was “The Housewife’s Problems.” Her talks are the kind that sink deep Into the minds of all who hear her and are sure to influence for permanent (benefit. There were only about thirty at the morning meeting and about seventy-five in the afternoon. —lt would have been worth the whili lor every fanner and every farmer’s wife in the county to have heard these splendid talks.

■ . ci • 1., . .■ x, . ■. • ~ * w Advertising. Newspaper advertising is the only way sjo get return from money invested in publicity. Nine-tenths of the big stores in the' cities nee no other means, and they spend millions of dollars annually to place their wares before the buying public. A handbill may be picked up, carelessly glanced over, and then thrown in the wastebasket or used for shaving paper. but before the local paper dies that death it is perused by every member of the family. No one throws away the paper as soon as he looks it over. . He leaves it for the rest of the family to read, and nearby relatives to tell tEem what is going on at home,. One never hears of a handbill being mailed in this manner. There is nothing on that which will interest an out of town person, but there is a lot in the local paper. The advertiser can never tell from where his business may come. It may coins from some one who passes his Btore every day, and who would not think of going into it if he had not read an advertisment, or it may come from back in the country. Lots of the merchants say they can see no return, from an advertisement. When they do get return, they do not tell the publisher- for fear that he will raise the rate. The real benefit of an advertisement is never realized. And yet we have examples quoted to us every day* of the benefits to be derived from advertising.

Woman for Woman’s Work.

Higher education in the future should recognise the fact that the majority, of the women take up the occupation of training children, the married ones a» mothers and many of the unmarried ones in the interest of mothers. Training children is the normal occupation of woman, and its importance in education has probably not been recognized because it has hitherto not been regarded as an intelligent pursuit Yet it is t!he most intellectual occupation in the. world, in no matter what walk of life. It calls always for great moral and carefully trained mental powers. What a great power a reading mother had to train the minds of her children! This normal occupation of women should be the main object henceforth in the education of women, and no longer should her eduction be a mere imitation of that of a man. On such a basis I believe higher education will surely perfect the home life and household joy. It certainly is not the chief end of a woman’s life to enter man’s occupation, as was intended when higher education was advocated for her. It 1b high time that that idea of an education for her was abandoned, and that the aim should be to develop in woman the the capacity and the powers that flt her to make life fuller of intellectual enjoyment and happiness, more productive, physically, mentally and spiritually. •

Not to be Swayed by the Mob.

There are many citizens whose action issuch that they at least allow us to believe that they expect the Judicial department of the government to be run in accordance with public sentiment. When the day comes—let ui trust that it may never come—that the judicial branch of government is swerved from its official duty by the clamor of the populace, the end of the government Is not far distant. No government can long surv've whose judiciary yields to the popular frenzy that follows for a moment the mere clamor of the unreasoning, uneducated, in that particular case, opinion of the/publid, or even of the press. Law u not the arbitrary creation of a majority’s will or of any will, but It ought to be, as we trust It may ever be, the wellrounded, well-considered justice of the state, enlightened by the reasonings of the court which enforces it You would have little respect, I think, for a court who curbed his views to meet the popular clamof.

Britain Leads in Speed.

„ Great Britain, not content with possessing the largest warship in the world in Dreadnought, has now constructed the fastest torpedo boat destroyer'in the Mohawk. On her official trial ifi the North Sea the Mohawk maintained for six hours a mean speed of thirty-four and a quarter knots an hour. In six runs over a measured mile she travelled at the rate of 84 and one-half knots an hour. Thl* is equal to forty miles.

American Plutocrats.

g The United States has vast natural wealth. And it has —what is still more valuable—an enterprising, energetic, and hard-working population. The only thing that oan possibly Imperil its prosperity is that the, country should fall to realise how dangerous to any community is the role of plutocrats, utterly unscrupulous, and whose business it is to prey op legitimate industry.
