J6.B00 is the bill rendered for
printing bills for the present session
of the legislature. All of which re
minds us of the fact that this Item
alone exceeds the total for all other
Incidental expenses of the session.
Roth House and Senate have done
away with the printing of amend

name are provided the members from
a mimeograph machine with help al
ready in the employ of the state, af
fording a saving of many hundreds
of dollars.
Five proposed constitutional
amendments are now on the general
file of the Senate, in addition to the
submission of the question of wheth
er or not the state shall vote on the
question of a constitutional conven
tion. A motion was adopted by the
Senate this week that none of the

Over 90 per cent of
Busines Men Fail
Men fail in lusinoss because they lo not know the game.
They lack syMcm and a thorough knowledge of their business.
The reason why so many would-be fanners fail is because they
know little or nothing of the science of fanning. They think
anybody can, farm and then are surprised to find that their
crops will not grow. The farmer who is always behind, who
always has bad luck with his crops, is the man who farms by
guess and trusts to luck. If he were in the mercantile business
he would be in the hands of a receiver within a year, lie is
a failure but be hangs on because the poorest farmer can get a
living out of the land if he only plows and sows the seed.
An Agricultural Education
4
The first thing a young man who intends to go into busi
ness should do is to take a course in a business college. Here
he can become familiar with the first principles of business,
without which he will fail. The first thing a man who expects
to farm should do is to take a course in an agricultural college,
if he can, but if he has not the lime or the money to spend in a
two-year course, he can get the same instruction at home by
taking a course in the Campbell Correspondence School of Soil
Culture. Kverythiiig is furnished books and all at a very
slight cost, and the best thing about it, he does not have to
leave the farm or his work.
He can choose from the following courses:
Soil Improvement Course Cereal Culture Course
Horticultural Conn Dry Farming Courtte
Small Farming. Course Farm Fg1iieering Course
Boll Tillage Course1
Summer is the time to study agriculture, and the farm and
garden is the laboratory in which to work out the problems.
Don't wait for fall or winter to begin, but get bsuy now. You
will learn more in one summer applying your instruction in the
fields than in a dozen winters sitting by the fire.
