A good many people, both town and
country bred, have wondered whether
the graduates of the agricultural col-
leges really turn to farming or allied
pursuits on completing their studies
A questionnaire sent out -by the Uni-
versity of Minnesota gives good evi-
dence that they do.
Out of the first 100 answers returned
it developed that 97 per cent of the
farm school graduates were either di
rectly engaged in farming or stock
raising, generally along highly special-
ized lines, or were engaged in busi-
nesses or professions devoted to the
furtherance of agriculture. Only three
out of the 100 had turned to distinctly
urban pursuits.
This remarkably high average might
not hold in a complete canvas of all
th$ agricultural grads in the country,
but it may be taken as a very fair in-
dication of the effects of education
along these lines.
The agricultural school arose in ans-
wer to a direct demand and it has
come to stay. It bears the same rela-
tion to farm life which other colleges
bear to commercial, technical or pro-
fessional life and it is just as worthy
of enthusiastic support.

By Associated I’reas
Austin, Texas, April 6.—Prospects
for the state general revenue fund re-
turning to a cash basis before next
January are slight, according to State
Treasurer C. V. Terrell. The fund
went on a deficiency last week, fol-
lowing transfer of the $3,000,000 emer-
gency school appropriation and the
regular school fund totalling $8,800,-
000.
Although comparatively small sums
of taxes will be received by the state
treasury departmentfor sometime,Ter-
rel declared the amounts will not be
large enough to meet, the regular state
payrolls as well as appropriations
made by the legislature The deficien-
cy at present was caused primarily
by the large appropriations of the regu-
lar session that has to be. met, the
treasurer said. A few days before the
fund went on a deficiency there was
approximately $10,000,000 in it.
There also is little probability of
relief from the deficiency by the spe-
cial session of the legislature which
is called to meet Aprl 1, Treasurer
Trrell stated. This, he said, is due
to the fact that although helpful reve-
measure may be enacted such
measures will not realize funds for
the-state until late this year or the
first of next year.
The deficiency in the fund will grad-
ually grow larger, and will probably
pass the peak of the deficiency in the
fund last fall it is said. The peak of
the former deficiency was more than
$2,500,000. The entire state payroll,
including educational and other insti-
tutions, approximated $550,000 month-
ly. This amount ordinarily comes out
of the general fund. It will be paid
as funds become available.
The state is far from being entirely
out of money, however, Terrell point
ed out. Including all the various funds
such a3 the permanent school fund,
Confederate pensions fund, etc., the
state has approximately $6,000,000 in
the treasury. A large portion of this

Chicago, April 9.—-If Farmer Jones
loses a nut or bolt from his mowing
machine, he need no longer crank up
the flivver for a trip to town. He
may replace it with a similar one from
his binder, as a result of the standard-
ization and simplification of farm ma-
chinery indicated by a survey just
completed by the National Institute
of Progressive Farming.
The programs of simplification, as
undertaken by leading implement man-
ufacturers, are improving repair anti
dealer service with resultant saving
In time, labor and money tor the farm-
er, the survey Indicated.
Figures furnished by Alexander
Legge, president of the International
Harvester Company, were submitted
to the institute as indicative of the
lines along which his company has
been working for simplification. He
said that In 1918 the company made
one standard two-horse wagon In 876
types but reduced the types to 16 in
1922. Twenty-two sizes of plows also
wore eliminated, he said. Reports
submitted to the institute by other
manufacturers showed similar propor-
tional decreases. '
From the humble beginning of Cy-
rus H. McCormick’s -crude reaper in
1831, the farm machinery industry
grew with such rapidity that shortly
before the war, there were thousands
of different types of merely one class
of machinery.
One result was that if a machine
broke suddenly, the farmer, disgusted
by the enforced suspension of urgent
work, hustled into town only to find
that the dealer could not furnish the
needed part. Days of restless Inactiv-
ity usually followed while the replace-
ment was sent from the factory. This
loss of time and labor was costly.
After the World war, where stan-
dardization was learned extensively,
the implement manufacturers turned
their attention to recognition of the
benefits of simplification as they
would apply to the consuming farmer.
Thousands of types were eliminated
by Incorporating into one machine
ar.y standardized type of machine and
lo supply parts direct from the stock
replacements without sending to the
factory.
