Be Grateful to the Farmer.

In seeking the reason for the nations
continued prosperity do not overlook
the farmer. He is the man who sets the
wave of prosperity in motion. Secretary
Wilson of the Agricultural Department
now shows facts and figures to prove
that it is the farmer who is still keeping
the country prosperous. In 1908, for
instance, the surplus of farm products
which were not needed for domestic
consumption and were sold abroad
amounted to SS7S, 100000. Exclusive of
farm products, the balance of trade was
against us, the exports of other products
falling S56,O00,0O0 below the imports.
So great was the farmers contribution
to the export trade, however, that his
products not only wiped out this balance
but established balance in our favor of
fully 1857 100000.
II is not without reason that Secretary
Wilson breaks into praise of the growers
of wheat and corn and other agricultural
products. Big crops mean activity in
all productive aud manufacturing lines
and an immense freight carrying traffic
on the railroads. A large business for
the railroad means general activity in
the various industries which contribute
to railw1y maintenance and operation.
1t also means large and regular dividends
and q healthful tone in the world of
finance. In fact, while the farmer is
producing large and salable crops, the
nation has a stable basis of prosperity
which even the widest financiering OF
Wall Street spectators can not disturb.

A Noble Oak.

On the farm of Michael Reheis, six miles
from Waterloo, ILL.,, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat, has been chopped down
for exhibition at the st. Louis fair, an
old white oak, probably the largest tree
in the state. 1t was 95 feet in height, 8
feet in diameter near the ground, and
feet thick, 80 feet up to the first limbs.
1t was bought for $50 by J. NJ. White of
Mascoutah, and will be cut into 10-foot
sections. 1t is estimated that 40 farm
wagons could be made from its wood,
which is valued at 1925. Reheis Is said to
have dug up pot Of gold at the foot Of
this tree, which has made him compare

How Can Pomonas Help Our Fairs9

Recently the New England Farmer
noticed meeting of Kennebec Pomona
at Belgrade. Lecturer Hitchins brought
forward this subject for discussion,
How can this Pomona help the Central
Maine fair?
What is suggested by this discussion,
says the Maine Farmer, is just what is
demanded all over the state, that the
patrons in our Pomona gatherings take
up these vital questions, vital to the
counties and communities, vital to the
individuals, and see wherein the grange
can do more to help make our fairs OF
greatest possible benefit to the state by
promoting in every way possible the one
industry which makes possible the ex-
hibition. A closer touch between the
fairs and the grange will not only serve
to free us from any tendency to switch
these exhibitions from their true pur-
pose, but protect from any neglect OF
the interests centering in agriculture.
Here is good work for every Pomona
and every legitimate fair can be helped
materially by discussion of ways and
means at our POmonas. Keep the bal
rolling.-New England Farmer.
