WHAT SECRETARY WILSON TOLD
THE FARMERS

For half century we have had
Republican policies. When the party
came into power there were few rail-
ways, few factories and little popu-
lation in the west. The western
country yielded grains and meats
abundantly, but there were no mark
cts beyond the requirements of new
settlers. The people were intelligent
and saw at once that home markets
were needed. 1t cost too much to
send crops to Europe. We wanted
shops, forges, factories and we got
them by encouraging them. A pro-
tective system was adopted that made
a home market into which the out
side world has wanted to enter ever
since. The Republican policy then
was to give Protection equal to the
difference between the cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad.
While we were building up our
manufacturing system the public
lands were being given to the people,
which resulted in very cheap food for
many years, not very profitable to
the farmers. Building transporta-
tion lines to the Mississippi Valley
and beyond, opening mines and in
creasing manufactures resulted in
complete settlement of the lands in
the humid regions of our country
and has greatly increased popula-
tion in all vocations until home de-
mand for food products is so great
that prices are higher than they have
been. The farmers during all these
years have sustained the protective
system because it maintained a
home market for their products.
They paid more for their factory
goods, but they were made at home
and the maker bought farm crops
Now 1t is proposed to let farm pro-
ducts come in free or at lower rates.
The farmers of the country had
low prices for their crops, while
free lands were to be had for TAX
ing up. The farmer endured high
prices for factory goods while these
industries were being developed and
the West was being settled. 1t now
costs him more than II did before,
The land investment is greater and
labor costs much more. Is he now

ers in new adjacent countries and

STERLING.

NJ. A. Gilpin recently purchased
a four-horse power gasoline engine
with which he is well pleased. He
can thresh, cut wood and fill silos
for his neighbors and do almost
everything at home except milk the
cows and start the kitchen fire in
the morning for his wife. The fam
lily owned a dog that was highly
priced and was almost as useful as
any one of the family but by some
means a wagon wheel was driven
over him and in a short time the
poor dog expired. Mark says he
would rather have lost the best COW
he has than that dog. Many dogs
are about worthless but the man
or boy who has ever owned a good
dog knows how to appreciate them.
We are pleased to note that over
$50 were able to pay their taxes and
thus feel relieved financially as well
as physically for another year.

Variety In Stock Rations.

The care and attention that are
usually devoted to live stock during
the winter season. when crops are
not on the field, do not need attention,
and the farmer has to be idle at times,
Is considerable When the labor Is
bestowed on the preparation of food
for stock. in order to make the ra-
tons more valuable, and also more
highly relished, there Is then suffi-
cient saving to more than pay for the
labor, and also to induce more rapid
increase in the weight of the animals
or the production of milk and butter.
Every farmer who takes advantage OF
the labor-saving implements reduces
the cost of his products, and 1t may
be claimed that new implements are
being introduced so rapidly that many
farmers are not aware Of what Is &C.
curing, some of the latest being ma

ficient attention to root crops. 1t Is
much easier to grow 10 acres of tur.
nips or carrots at the present day,
with the air of seed drills. wheel hoes,
diggers and weeders, than to cultivate
one acre a century or half century
ago. Every farmer knows that there
is no winter food superior to carrots
for horses and cows, yet II one farm
in hundred can be found in which
carrots are grown yearly, in order to
provide an unlimited supply, 1t will be
more than the average heretofore, yet
hundreds Of bushels of carrots can be
grown on an acre of land, according to
soil and circumstances, and they are
valuable for all classes of stock as
well as being at all times highly
relished.
