The Down Trodden Farmer.

The heartfelt sympathy VI w
ory one. especially the newspaper
n,hIsber with his horde of
wealth. goes out to the poor
down-trodden farmer IN these
fines of agricultural depression.
When the editor goes to buy a
hoafsteak and pays Is cents per
n,und for it, because the butcher
has TO pay the farmer the highest
nrice that has prevailed in a long
t;me for his cattle, his heart goes
ont in sympathy for the horny
banded filler of the soil. . When
he buys a pork chop (if he can
afford it) and pays Is cents per
Mound for it, because the farmer
< getting 8 1-2 cents per pound,
live weight for his hogs, the edl-
tor or other common laborer,
again thinks of the poor
farmers
When he pays 80 cents for
dozen of eggs; 30 cents for
pound of country butter; 10 to 10
cents for mutton; Is cents per
pound for lard; 81 80 to $l.75 for
a sack of flour, he again feels pity
for the poor farmer and wishes
that prices of farm products
might advance. Should the editor.
merchant. clerk or laborer be able
to keep a cow or a horse, he still
has more cause for heart rending
pangs of sympathy for the farmer
y hen he pays $15 to 500 per ton
for hay; $50 per ton for oats; $25
per ton for barley, he again feels
sorry for the farmer.
If there is any class of people
on earth who are Independent
and should enjoy life and pros
parity at this time, it is the farm
ers of the Palouse country, who
have had one of the best crops
ever known and are getting high
er prices for every product with
tie single exception of potatoes)
than has ever been paid in the
Palouse country. With wheat, the
great staple, selling for 81 per
busheI, or more, and everything
else produced by the farmers
bringing record prices; with the
price Of his farm lands steadily
advancing, and prospects for am
other bounteous crop and high
prices, the Palouse country farm
er is today the most fortunate in
dividual in the west.
But there are two sides to this
story. While the farmer is pros
porous and getting record prices
for his products how about the
laborer? The man who works for
wages is getting no more now
tfan he got last year or the year
before, yet the cost Of living has
nearly doubled. Everything he
must clothing, food, and all
other necessities, are higher than
ever before, yet his earning ca
paclty has not increased. How can
the man who is only getting 81
per day and not working all of
the time, support a family with
prices as high as they now are?
While we envy the farmer, we
must, of necessity, think some
times of the other side, and our
sympathy must needs go out to
tie poor laborer who has only the
same salary that he had before
tie marked advance in the cost
of living.

from the stubble fields. the alfalfa
pasture and the corn fields. and
he has been at no expense for cut
ting or husking the corn.
Last year Washington State
College raised 80 bushels of wheat
per acre on land that had been in
corn the previous year and this
corn was allowed to ripen for seed
before beng cut off and the wheat
planted in the fall making it very
late, when seeded. The corn yield
ed about 40 bushels per acre. and
the next year the land produced
oO bushels of wheat. a portion of
this was the highest "clay point"
ON the college farm, yet both corn
and wheat produced a big yield
IN which there was d big profit.
Mr.. Ilungate is one of the sue
cessful grain farmers Of the Pa
louise country. Last year he had
1000 sacks OF wheat. oats and
barley. lie lost about $4,000 by
selling his wheat too early. getting
only 10 cents per bushel for it, yet
he realized enough to make an or
