FARM ON SCIENTIFIC BASIS ' I ?pormous Strides Have Been Taken by Agricultural Industry In the Last Century. Despite the asertions that farming | has not advanced and kept pace with he improvements in other lines of activity, the fact retrains that in no j industry have there been such revolu-1 tionary changes as in agriculture. From a hit-or-miss, makeshift occupation in which at best the farmer made a bare subsistence and hung on until he could secure something L< tt'-r or else remained stolidly and indifferently plodding along the road hi' father traveled, farming has become a highly organized and commercialized business, based on the application of scientific principles. It Is to the. great farm sections of the northwest that we must look for the best example of commercialized farming. Farming in the Dakota; Montana and Idaho Is being conduct ed on a large commercial scale and i* is not uncommon to see a farm of p. thousand acres being plowed and planted in one season by modern, scientific methods. Great traction engines capable of Dlowine 40 acres a dav are employed to make commercial farming easy and lucrative. Machinery does the seeding and the planting and machinery reaps the harvest. Modern scientific methods have smoothed the way ot the pioneer without taking away from him any of the rewards that go with the breaking and exploitation of a new country; The development of raw land lntc orchards or grain fields or truck gar- < dens Is simply a matter of mathematl- i cal calculation and wise business In- . vestment. This has not been accomnlish^d without a irreat dpi! of work 1 on the part of the men who have? j for profit, it is true?been laboring , for nearly a century to bring about this highly scientific change in farm methods.

J. 13-67 A "Progressive.** A sentence which ran across in a :ounty newspaper the other day appealed to us as strongly as any sentence we have read lately. "I am a oeliever in progressive ideas," wrote i correspondent of this county paper, "if it doesn't cost anything." There t is, "in a nutshell," as he said, the reason why so many people are "dead set" against ary movement for the irivancement of their neighborhood, ind why they become mere obstacles n the path of progress. They do lot mind the progress, but they want It without paying for it. So, of :ourse, they don't get it. The world ioesn't work that way. Progress, like every other good thing, costs something?both in money and in ?ffort. The man who is too stingy to pay his share or too lazy to do his part isn't going to help a bit in any good work and it is sheer impudence for such a person to call himself progressive.?

Reply to "A Hunter." ?* Editor County Record:? The attitude that "A Hunter" takes with lawlessness plainly shows that he not only needs the Code "under his nose," but over it; ignorance of the law does not excuse any one; surely he couldn't expect "Citizen" to furnish "his guests" with licenses! He . should have been courteous enough to have done this. It takes time and money, too, and tor uiti- y zen" to offer to take his guests' mon-* y ey and receipt for same and have their licenses mailed to them in order toprotect them,should the police come and demand their license, seems to be accommodation enough for "Citi9 * zen.
