Plant research of scientists has saved immense sums to. farmers, many new plants from other coun tries have been introduced New plant diseases are guarded against. Sudt se'Mlim is the-c4tr? inHUJfiv has saved the growers ot California several million dollars. The above are only a few ot the great -achievements of. science in re lation to. agriculture. Reading trie news, it seems that a great percen tage of the new inventions arid dis coveries' have to do with the farm. Scientists seem interested in the' ag ricultural problems of the nation more than in Almost anything else.

The other day. he attracted a crowd in Brooklyn. New York, and was found guilt* of obstructing traffic He was pu^'irito- a cell for a brief time, and tear'ullv complainted that his imprisonment was the ruination of his professional career. We don't see why this happening should spoil his career. True enough, he was conducted to his cell In ?' formal manner. He didn't have to "Crash" the prison gates. But 'hen? he didn't have to pay to get in! And he got out free. too. ^ (j- ? Dr. Frank Crane Says: THEORY PAYS A very common notion Is that theory has not much to do with practice. We dismiss a proposition with a wave of the hand when we charac terise it as nothing but theory, or <u? impractical idealism.
