with the vital problem of the ma
tion today, that of improving the
lands to increase the number oil
home owners, the address of Gift.
ford Pinchot, United States fores.
ter and chairman of the national
conservation commission, held the
attention of the delegates of the
Irrigation Congress tdoay from its
quiet beginning until its final
stirring climax.
After dwelling upon the neces-
sity for the upbuilding of the ma
ton through the men who own
their own homes and the necessity
for the advancement of irrigation
TO increase that number to
strengthen the nation, Pinchot
placed himself on record /as
champion of the Roosevelt poll
eies. He said in part:
Equality of Opportunity.
"The first thing we need in this
country, as President Roosevelt
so we'll set forth in that great
message which told what he had
been trying to do for the Ameri-
can people, is equality of oppor-
tunity for every citizen. No man
should have less, and no man
ought to ask for any more.
Law Favors Special Interests.
sit goes without saying that the
law is supreme and must be obey
ed. Our civilization rests On
obedience to law. But the law
is not absolute. It requires to
be construed. Rigid construc-
tion of the law works, and must
work, In the vast majority of
cases, for the benefit of the men
who can hire the best lawyers aud
who have the sources or influence
In law making at their command.
Strict construction necessarily fav-
ors the great interests as against
the people and i'm the long run can
not do otherwise.
.sThe great oppressive trusts ex-
list because of subseryient law
makers and adroit legal construc-
lions. Here is the central strong
hold of the money power In the
everlasting conflict of the few to
grab, and the many to keep or win
the rights they we're born with.
Legal technicaiities seldom help
the people. The people. not the
law, should have the benefit of
every doubt.
Equality of opportunity, a
square deal for every man, the
protection of the citizen against
the great concentrations of capt.
tai, the intelligent use Of laws and
institutions for the public good,
and the conservation OF our ma
fural resources, not for the trusts,
J but for the people; these are real
issues and real problems. Upon
such things as these the perpetu-
ity Of this country as nation of
homes really depends. We are
coming to see that the simple
things are the things to work for.
More than that, we are coming to
see that the plain American GILL
zen is the man to work for. The
Imagination Is staggered by the
magnitude of the prize for which
we work. II we succeed. there

The methods of harvesting al
falfa hay vary considerably in diff.
ferent sections of the country
In the west it is the common
practice to start the mowers in
the morning and rake the hay
INTO wlnrows the following day.
The hay is then cooked or is stack
ed or baled direct from windrow
as soon as the hay is sufficiently
cured. This is usually within two
days after raking if the hay is to
be stacked, or in three DAYS il it
is to be baled The raking com
mences as soon as the leaves are
wllted, but when the stems are
still green. 1t is cooked when the
stems are "half dry" 1t may be
stacked when moisture can no
longer be twisted out Of a wisp of
the hay 1t is not in suitable con
dition for baling, however, until
the stems break under hard twist

in the eastern sections where
curing is more difficult, hay caps
and stack covers are frequently
used. In regard to the Importance
ut the leaves for hay, the bulletin
says:
One of the dangers to be guard
ed against in alfalfa hay making
is the SCATTERING of the leaves.

grain in Pullman than any other

full student of conditions and knows
the market. He has handled wheat
for many years.
Mr.. Prices optimism is shared by
many. Less than one-third of the
1909 crop in the Inland Empire has
been sold. The farmers did not let
go with rush, as was hoped would
be the case, when the warehouses
and exporters combine tried to
stampede them by sending Leo Peter

ers have sold only portion of their
wheat and are holding to the re-
mainder. The mills and exporters
must have wheat and the export price,
based on Liverpool prices, less trans
portatIon and other charges, would
justify a much higher price for grain
here.

He has shipped sheep to Farming

Davenport, Wash. and to Valley,
Sites and Troy, Idaho. He sold this

Country improvement Company
which has bought 800 ewes and will
keep them on the company's ranch.
Mr.. Written has about 60 head of
pure-bred, registered Shropshires
and they have paid him we'll. He got
an average of So per head for the
wool this year, selling the wool at
10 cents per pound, which shows an
average of more than ten pounds to
the head. Mr.. Written recently re-
ceived a fine ram from England. 1t
