Pebiatese SS Judge Alfred Jaques of Duluth was a Grand Rapids visitor last week. He had been up the line to Deer River the and other points looking over political situation with particular re- ference to his candidacy for congres- sional representative from the Eighth sict. While here Mr. Jaques met a number of the leading Democrats and not a few Republicans. He is well pleased with the situation through- out the district ,so far as he has been able to size up the sentiment, and if there are any who believe that the Democrats do not expect to elect Judge Jaques in November, they are greatly mistaken.

Dunn to make another suggestion, wholly new in this state ,for hte pro- motion of efficiency in road build- ng. Mr. Dunn is becoming Minne sota’s apostle of good roads, and his ery, to every group of farm every gathering of*dairymen. As we understand it, Mr unt would have the state undertake the same program in promoting .good road building. Ie this plan is adopted, there will undoubtedly be the same result in ten years in road making as there has been in butter making, and Minnesota will have the most miles of road and the best roads of any state in the Union. (Mr. Dunn estimates that there is now spent by the state, counties and townships upon roads, each year, about $4,000,000. Road experts esti- mplte that for this enormous sum! but about one-fourth, or $1,000,000, is returned in actual value. But, sup- yose they are mistaken, and that Minnesota gets a half of the results that might be obtained. Still, here ip an annual loss of $23000,000 a year, which such a sys- tem of inspection and advice might, and we believe would, save. Certain- ly this is worth spending $50,000 to get, and, in results, it would excel any general tax for state aid yet proposed, while it 4s almbst an es- bential supplement to any form of such state aid. Nor should such a plan arouse any No and advice. local hostility or’ opposition. créamery and no dairyman refuses ‘the advice and aid of the state in- gpectors;, neithen would any town- ghip road overseer or any county road supervisor refuse similar ‘The best way igs the cheapest way, and is the way to get the most of permanent results from aid the Pioneer gave a “scare- on schedule time, all right, but it was not George general would became The people of Bemidji are wery, much opinionated and would Theodore Roosevelt and President Taft would be present to deliver addresses at one of their pub- t|the least expenditure.

Minnesota has, in a few years, be- come one of the largest producers of butter. In ‘this same time its put- ter has become, on the average, the best in quality produced by any state and for the past eight or ten years jt has won the banner at nearly every national contest. This was accomplished through a thorough and comprehensive system ef state inspection and instruction. least Agricultural Education. At the Crookston convention no subject had more prominence, won more interest or was given more earnest consideration than educa- tion. This may seem strange to the average man, but the! fact that con- servation, as applied to agriculture,.is fm its last analysis wrappd up in the kind of education offered to the boys and girls is gaining a constant- ly widening conviction, says the Du- luth News Tribune. Here, too, is centered the problem of how to keep the children of farm- ers on the farms, and‘ of haw to win to the soil the sons of urban dwellers and the hosts of the unem- ployed. The mental side of agricul ture; the fact that brains has as great, or a greater, part than brawn in success on the farm; the trans- formation of soil cultivation from manual drudgery to a science, are essential to arousing and holding the interest of the boys.
