RICHLY DESERVED REWARD OF
 THE FARMER

While the financiers, manufacturers and merchants of the east and middle west are sliwly recovering from the f. nancia depression, the farmers of the great west are selling their $8,000, ,000,- 900 crop, and not only enjoying pros perity themselves, but giving new spirit to the business life of the entire nation.
 None can begrudge the western farm CTS for their good fortune. They rich ly deserve all the reward that comes to them, not only in one years ease and comfort but in settled prosperity.
 It is the farmers that have converted our vast domain from a wilderness into rich fields, and made possible the four ishing cities. Limitless tracts that were once arid deserts, have been made by them the granary of the world Agri- culture has ever been and ever will be the backbone of all business in this country.
 The prosperous, middle-aged farmer of the west, today, facing his declining years in comfort and plenty, may be envied by the wage-worker of the cities.
 But let us not forget that the farmer has brought his present condition at cost of ceaseless toll and tireless energy, of almost inconceivable self denial and sacrifice, of hunger, cold and mental sui fering, of disappointments and discour- agements that only the Attest could sur vive.
 If any life could be harder than was that of the pioneer farmer of the west, it was that of his wife. She, generally without help and with little to do with, cooked the meals, did the family wash ing and the sewing, mixed the cows, raised the chickens, made the soap and apple butter and baked the berad and pies, brought up a generous brood of healthy children, and found time in the harvest seasons to help her husband in the fields.
 The lives of these men and women have been the most extraordinary and most fruitful in history.
 From the Mississippi westward to the Pacific they have, within the span of existing years, turned an unknown vii. derness into the mightiest empire ond the most productive region on the globe.
 While their horizon was still bound ed by the clearing his axe had made, the prophetic pioneer farmer and his wife boldly dreamed of continental conquest. Their vision saw beyond the dank swamp, the bleak desert and the dark forest to the lofty buildings and the jostling multitudes of mighty cities--be- yond the rank, grass-clad prairies to the seas of golden grain-beyond the harsh life of the log hut and the sod ] house to the cozy homes of their child ! ren where should be comfort and the higher things of life, though they might not be for him and her.
 Nature is supremely just, and those who gave their youth and prime to toll | and harship and severe economy anr blessed in their old age with peace and plenty.
 Richly they have earned all the good that comes to them. For they have en- riched not themselves alone but the nation. And by no means the least of the riches they have given to us all arc those of example and heritage in sterling character and knew no fear or failure.
