It is commendable. _)( st of the lezltions here maintain military and " attachies. “Some. have commercial attaches. But never before have we heard of a' farmer at~ tache.”—Washington Herald, So far as the :United: States 1s concerned, every U." 8. Consul serving abroad may, be reckoned as an agricultural attache. Our consuls are ever on the alert for improved methods of agriculture adopted abroad, and they have gontxib: vastly to the number of farm products ‘whic been neceu!nll’ introduced. in this country. ‘The ‘value of the consular service to the American farmer is hxdly recognized as yet, as it works in -ilenca and without publicity. To cite some examples: Consul General Scidmore (Yokohama) and S. P. Queim, formerly . interpreter at Shanghai, con- tributed collections of soy beans from Korea and China, which have played a large part in the. devel- spment of -that great industry in ‘this country. Corisul ‘Magelssen sént,_the shoots from which' the dm palms are now growing in the oasis of South- “ern: California; * Other officers have kent’ wild- rice, mlngoeu, new speties of walnuts, new vlrietlu of flnx, and of grapes' and-melons, many. of which have a"ded ‘greatly- to ‘the materml wealth of ‘the. country. .- The Amgrican - consul’s’ duties vdth :Tespect to - gneultun form'but ‘a tithe of his ‘work," yet,"in; . co-operation’ with' the Department of.

Root and ' Roosevelt took that service out of the. spoils system, whl]e Rogers, a constructive young Re- .publican,. representative from Massachusetts, has drafted a bill, now on' the Congressional Calendar, vkhich will lift the service to a plane making it at- b tractive to the highest grade of young men to be found in' the country, if it is enacted. The princic ples of this bill are warming advocated by Secre- tary Hughes, and the farmers should acquaint themselves with its provisions and urge its enact- ment.—.-Exchnnge. —y ‘That's right, Mr. County Auditor, let some other cnunty in the state hold the high tnx ucord lor a change.
