FOOD FROM ABROAD.
Would tho Consumer Be Benefited If
Foodstuffs Were Admitted Free?

Would tho Consumer Be Benefited IL
Foodstuffs Were Admitted Free?
The New York Sun of May IA ridi-
cules the notion that any relief for
the present nigh prices of provisions
is possible by putting food products ON
the free list. 1t asks:
Where can we buy wheat. corn.
oats. barley. beef. mutton. cattle. sheep
lard. bacon. butter. eggs. poultry. flour.
fresh vegetables. fruits. berries ana
other commodities of general and daily
household consumption! What cOun
try or what group Of countries has
these commodities to sell In millions
Of pounds or bushels?"
1t may be that the relief would be
slow in coming in some cases, but It
would come. All the above commodi.
ties are grown in proportion to the an
ticipated demand for them. Canada.
Russia and Argentina are the chief
countries besides America which pX
port agricultural products. They grow
no more than they think they can sell
to advantage. They naturally take
tariffs into account before deciding
how much they can grow for export.
When England had a duty on wheat
there was little wheat grown in Rus
STA for export. But the taking Off OF
that duty had the effect OF stimulating
the growth Of wheat in all countries
that were tit for it. and England con-
tinues to feed her teeming population
on foreign grown wheat. Similarly
the opening of our ports to foreign
agricultural produce would encourage
production in all countries that are tit
to supply us. 1t is nothing but s0phis-
try to reason that because there is no
available foreign food supply when we
shut our door against 1t there will be
none when we alter our tactics and in
vite it.
Besides. if our duties on agricultur-
al products do not keep out food what
on earth are they for? Are they to
fool the farmers?

Mrs. B. w. Hale.

The paragraph below is from

1t will be interesting to very
many of our readers. Mrs. Hale
recently lived at Laddonia, and
she is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Rush Harmon, south of Van
dalia: '"
The editor Of the Times had a
delightful visit this week with
Mrs. B. W. Hale, who came with
her husband recently from near
Mexico, Missouri, and purchased
the Ault ranch, southwest of Lake
Arthur. Mrs. Hale is without
doubt the most enthusiastic lover
of the Pecos Valley country W,
have ever met. She says she was
never so happily situated-that
the Pecos Valley seems as near
the creator as any place could
be. Even her little girl, in her
evening prayer recently added
the following: ooh God, l
thank you for having told papa
to come to the Pecos Valley"
She also tells of a new use for
alfalfa. Having read of using
alfalfa for green's she decided to
try. She gathered the alfalfa
fresh from the field, fixed them
up with meat in the usual man
ner, and 10, no such delicacy had
ever passed her lips. Mrs. Hale
wants Others to try it, and says,
Come out, everybody, we have
hundred acres of alfalfa eight
inches high, and help your
selves" Thanks Mrs. Hale, we
will, We would enjoy a NOR
extended visit with you.

with the various owners accord

one slit in ear to swallowfork in

in the bunch has no ears, dogs
having chewed them off while

vaded a store and ate half case
of eggs while the buyer was there
and he hunted up her owner and
bought the family on account OF
their hustling prOclivities, to the
great delight of the store-keeper
and other villagers.

few days ago: Audrain county,
Mo-, was represented on the mar
ket this week by f. j. Shobe, a

outlook was poor and that farm
ers were only counting on get
ting a third of crop. He reports
that everything else is fine and
that the farmers are way ahead
with their work for this time Of
year. There will be large
acreage of oats and they are look
ing mighty fine too. He says
there is lots of corn in the farmers
hands but no stock to feed it to
as almost everything is cleaned
out. Corn sells for so to 80 cents.
Mr.. Shobe says he does not
believe hogs will reach $12.
