East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-02-13

One of the most illuminating-and
incidentally one of the most inter-
esting and amusing-series of an
| swers sent to the country life COM
mission was from a farmer in Mis-
souri, He stated that he had a wife
and II living children, he and his
wife being each SO years old; and
that they owned $40 acres of land
without any mortgage hanging over
their heads. He had himself done
well, and his views as to why many
of his neighbors had done less well
are entitled to consideration. These
views are expressed in terse and Wig
orous English; they can not always
be quoted in full.
He states that the farm homes in
his neghborhood are not as good as
they should be because too many Of
them are encumbered by mortgages;
that the schools do not train boys and
girls satisfactorily for life on the farm
because they allow them to get an
idea in their heads that city life IS
better. and that to remedy this prac-
teal farming should be taught
To the question whether the farm
hood are satisfactorily organized, he
answers: ooh. there is a little one
horse grange in our locality, and every
darned one thinks they ought to be
a king"
To the question. "Are the renters
of farms in your neighborhood maxi
ing a satisfactory living?" he answers:
mo; because they move about so
much hunting better job"
To the question. as the supply of
farm labor in your neighborhood sat
isfactory?" the answer is: "No; be-
cause the people have gone out of the
baby business" and when asked as
to the remedy he answers. give a
pention to every mother who gives
birth to seven living boys on Amerl-
can soil"
To the question "Are the conditions
surrounding hired labor on the farm
in your neighborhood satisfactory to
the hired mem" he answers: "Yes,
unless he is a drunken cuss," adding
that he would like to blow up the
still houses and root out whisky and
beer.
To the question "Are the sanitary
conditions on the farms In your
satisfactory" he an
swers: mo; toto careless about
chicken yards (and the like) and
poorly covered Wells. in one Well on |
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-02-13

must not blind us to the shrewd
common sense and good judgment
they display. The man IS a good cit
izen; his wife is a good citizen; and
their views are fundamentally sound.
Very much information of the most
valuable kind can be gathered if the
commission is given the money ne
cessary to enable ii to arrange and
classify the information obtained
from the great mass Of similar an
swers which they have received, But
there is one point where the testi-
mony is as a whole in flat contradic-
ton to that contained above. The
general feeling is that the organiza-
ton of farmers the grangers and the
like. have been of the very highst
service not only to the farmers, but
to the farmers wives, and that they
have conferred great social as well as
industrial advantages,
An excellent little book has recent
" been published by Miss Jennie Du-
ell, called zone WJman's Work for
Farm Women It is dedicated "To
farm women everywhere" and is the
story of Mary A. Mayr's part in ru-
raj social movements. 1t is worth
while to read this little volume to
see how much the hard-working wo-
man who lives on the farm can do for
herself when once she is given SYM
pathy, encouragement and OCCASION
al leadership.
