The recent election of Mr. Kenyon L.
Butterlleld of Michigan to the presi
dency of the Uhode Island Agricultural
college bodes well for that institution.
During the past three years he has
pursued work In the I niverslty of
Michlgun. His work in the university
has been of such a high order that dur
ing this year he was appointed lecturer
In rural sociology, a new course offered
In the university, lie believes in thor
ough technical training for the farmer,
and it Is understood that the Khodo Is
land bourd will give him full latitude
to curry out his Ideas in this direction.
He Is withal nn enthusiastic worker In

Practical Co-operation.
Some time ago, when prices for beef
were so high us to be almost prohibi
tive, the members of some of the
granges In llcrkshire county, Mass.,
co-oiH-rnted In defying the high prices
of the meat trust and getting their own
fresh incut at u low price. Some of the
farmers raising young stock agreed to
gether to kill off Ktock as It was needed
to supply meat, taking turns and dis
tributing to each other and to other
members of tho grange at u lower price
thtiu meat was selling for in the mar
ket. Two important grange ideas were
thereby Illustrated fruternity nnd co
operation. "Watch the Musket."
Carnegie In his "Umpire of Husiness"
sums up tho conditions of success for
the farmer as well as the business man.
He says: "The man who fails Is the
muu who scatters his capital, which
means that he has also scattered his
brains. Ho has Investments In this,
that and the other thing. Don't put all
your eggs In one basket Is ull wrong.
I tell you, put all your eggs In one bas
ket and then watch that basket."
Tho secretary of the I'onnsylvunlu
stuto grange, J. T. Milium, says that in
many sections the notion still prevails
that tho grange is the avowed enemy
of tho middlemen. This Is not correct.
We oppose only n surplus of middle
men, endeavoring to shorten ns much
us possiblo tho route from tho pro
ducer to the consumer.
The advisability of organizing a na
tional grange life insurance company
Is under consideration by n committee
appointed by tho national grunge to
report ut Its next meeting. Tho com
mittee consists of W. K. Thompson,
South Carolina; G. S. Ludd, Massachu
setts; N. J. Huclielder, New Hampshire.
. There is a possibility thut the na
tional grange may meet at Niagara
Falls iwnt November.
Tho grungo adapts Its functions to

eMecmt 1. This haii pinny is more
often applied in the improvement or
management of country roads-than in
almost any other line of work. If nn
organized system of drniniipe in on
dertnken the necessity for the service
of a competent engineer is generally
admitted, but roads are supposed to
he different. As a rule only the Mir
fnee Is considered. That reduces the
question to a choice between appli
cations of dirt, gravel or crushed S'tone.
There are usually a good many rival
candidates for the olllce of road com
missioner. No theoretical knowledge
of mechanical engineering or of road
making is required of these candi
dates, and the citizens usunlly con
sider themselves fortunate if the po
sition is held by a fairly Intelligent
mnn of energy and good intentions.
He has to learn as he goes along, how
ever, nnd the township genernlly pays
dearly for his education. The "awful"
country roads of ihe country have
been the subject of n grent deal of un
favorable criticism on the part of for
eign visitors, and the loss unstained
through the dilllculty nnd soine
times suspension of truffle by reason
thereof Is enormous. We have long
supposed this was one of the irrenie
dial drawbacks of n new country, ns
land values are not high enough to
justify heavier taxation for expensive
turnpikes. However, engineers have
been turning their attention to the
mutter, nnd now tell ns that good
roads nnd dirt roads are not incom
patible; tiiat good road making is all
a ques'tion of knowing how, nnd that
the money expended for road improve
ments which nre not directed by skill
nnd intelligence is money thrown
away. It is time we outgrew this no
tion thai a public ofliee is n private
snap, time that we outgrew our petty
economies in public nffairs. If the vil
lages nnd townships of the I'nited
States, during the past .p0 years had
pnid their money to experts who
gave them honest ndice and skilled
services, men who would have coordin
ated their efforts, it is altogether
probable we would have had a very
different and a much better system of
roads to-day. It Is not too late to in
stitute reforms now, and right here
is a chance for our agricultural col
leges to do some good work. The ag
ricultural college, of course, cannot
attempt to fit a man for rural occupa
tion, but it can at leust give him an in
telligent knowledge of the problems
involved in road-making and to that
extent make him a good citizen, no-t
likely to submit tamely to the waste
of money by Ignorant roadmnster.
The engineering departments of our
stale colleges are gradual ing men well
qualified to do work of this kind, nnd
it would be economy on the part of
munieipnlities to employ them rnther
than local otlieeseekcrs who are ever
on the lookout for jobs of this kind.

J. E. llerbst, a S'traw berry grower
of Wisconsin, tells about, his methods
of berry picking. He says that one of
his girl pickers picked 158 quarts in
one day. The ordinary amount of u
day's picking with him is SO quarts per
picker in a day of live hours. Mr.
ilerbst was asked why he preferred
girls to boys ns berry pickers and re
plied: "We prefer girls forj picking
because they will stand the picking
much better; they are not so talkative;
they do not get tired and want to go,
nnd ns a rule will n -t tend to business
a good deal better thuu boys will." ,
An Electrical Device fur Weighing Trai of.
Disposed ol to an Ohio Company lor
$75,000.
One of the most energetic young
men Iielltfonte has produced in miny
years is Edward McGarvev, who has
a special talent tor working out elec
trical contrivances. These have al
ready made him a rich man. He is'
about ao years of age. He worked at
day to help suppott the family, and at
nights studied and worked on patents
which have already made his name
famous among the great electricians
of the day. Thomas Edison, tl.e
great invertor, had him in his 'abora- j
tory for several months. He has thus
far been the patentee of fourteen
valuable patents, all of which some
day will be placed on the mulct.
Tuesday he sold to the Central
Electrical company, of Ohio, one of
his patents for $75,000. This is an
invention to weigh objects while pass
ing over the scales 111 rapid motion.
This is to say, if a tra:n of cars loaded
with coal were run over the scales the
vibrator indicator the name of the
machine would correctly register
the weight of every car on the train.
It will do this if the vibrator is several
miles away from the railroad.
This is one of the most remarkable
inventions of the age. He has other
patents not yet perfected, which will
bring even mote money than this one.
Mr. McGarvey had a laboratory at
Iiellefonte foi five years, but will
move it to Ohio, where all his patents
will be manufactured.
' The patentee is known by a number
ot people in liloomsburg he having at
different times, visited here.

Carpenter lor value received, assigned nnd
