Show H Despite the fact that tho great post- H era announcing the "Dry Farming H Congress" to be held at Denver this H month contain tho name of V. M. H .lardlnc, of the Agricultural College H of Utah, as one to appear on tho pro- H gram, the Deserct Farmer makes no H mention of him at all and stales that H "Dr. John A. Wldtsoo has been In- H vlted to give the principal address H from this state." Dr. Wldtsoe'sname H lias not yet appeared In any of the H olllclal announcements of the program H lecclvcd at this olllcc, and Mr. Jar- H (line's name is there-hence theFaim- H uj's .statement seems Just u little H strange There Is no discounting Dr. H Wldtsoc's ability, and for the bcncllt H of the congress it Is to be hoped that H he will appear on the program, but H this attempt of the Farmer to exalt H him at the expense of another 1st xj H trcmcly pettj; Dr Wldtsoo doesn't H need such cITorts in his behalf, and we H arc charitable enough to halfway be- H Hoc that he doesn't iiultc sanction it. H Tho Farmer, if It N to be a great big B state paper, ought to gut over Its H churlishness. |
