Portland Union Stockyards Co.

North Portland, Ore, Sept. 23,-
Receipts for the week were; 2949
cattle, 81 calves, TIA hogs, 1853
sheep and 40 horses.
Packers and buyers started in the
week fairly we'll loaded with supplies
and the increased offerings of cattle
we're from rs to 40 cents less than
the week previous. There was more
frequent call for cows and butcher
cattle and the market on this class
ranged more steady. The calf mar
ket was steady.
The constant arrival of eastern
hogs; the lower tone Of the markets
in the east, and the matter of quality
eased the hog market up a lite. One
lot of tops sold at 500, with EXTRA
heavy as low as 100.
The sheep market was steady to
strong, with top lambs at 500.
The following sales are represen.

A practical conservation move
ment is that adopted by the depart
ment of agriculture in cooperating
with the lumber manufacturers of
sthe south, urging the use of odd
lengths of lumber. Formerly it was
the custom to sell only the even
lengths, but now it is found feasible
to sell the understood pieces, thereby
saving much of what was formerly
all waste. The same practice applied
in the northwest would bear good
fruit. a..
The organized forces that are
fighting tuberculosis in Washington,
report encouraging progress People
everywhere seem eager to help and
the illustrated talk, using moving
pictures, are drawing good crowds.
National health statistics last year
indicate that tuberculosis was the
most fatal of all diseases. It's dan
gers will become less as the contest
against it continues.
Is it the soil or the climate of the
Pacific Northwest that makes the ap-
pies grown here superior to those of
any other section? Indiana growers
intend to find out. Accordingly, they
have had shipped to their experiment
station rs tons of Wenatchee soil.
When it gets there, trees will be
planted. Then the results will be
carefully watched. If they're no bet
ter than the native product, the
northwests superiority will be as
cribed to climate; otherwise the soil
will get the credit.
Today, the United States is the
land of million laws. Europeans
regard Americans as the most gov
erned" people in the world Thus
are we getting away rapidly from the
ideal of Thomas Jefferson when he
said:~ "That government is best
which governs least" At the recent
meeting of governors if New Jersey,
it was proposed to assemble law
library where all states could deposit
copies of their enactments for gen.
eral reference purposes. Seattle ask
ed the governors to come to Puget
Sound next year.
The old battleship Oregon may be
given the first pass through the Pa
mama Canal when it is opened in
1915. A movement to that end has
been started, believing the historic
craft is entitled to the honor. The
navy department is not opposed to
the proposal. The Oregon has been
completely rebuilt at the Bremerton
navy yard and is once more in COM
mission.
The overwhelming defeat of the
reciprocity program in the Canadian
election last week was considerably
of surprise. The bigness of their
victory was equally surprising to the
Conservatives. They won by poll
tical trick, clouding the issue with
declarations that reciprocity was the
entering wedge of an attempt to
annex Canada to the United States.
On learning of the rejection of his
overtures, President Taft admitted
his disappointment, but proved him
self good loser. He said that he
now hoped the day would not be far
distant when all the customs houses
on the Canadian border would be
abolished, making trade absolutely
free between both countries.

THE DAIRY COW AND THE
HIRED HAND

When the farmer is asked why he
does not milk more cows, the answer
almost invariably comes that hired
help is too scarce. or that it is almost
impossible to hire man IL he is ex-
pected to do the milking.
The hired hand seems to have a
hatred toward the dairy business.
The question comes at once: why
is this true!" Is milking harder
than, other work? l think that most
hired men viii agree that milking is
not such hard work, but that the

do a days work In the field and then
do the milking in the morning and
evening besides, without any extra
pay. Certainly If the dairy business
is worth while, as l thoroughly be-
.ieye that it is. the farmer should
be willing to pay for the extra labor
involved.
/ have worked for several years
as hired hand on the farm and find
that the work of milking the cows
IS not harder than other farm work,
but that the tendency of the farmer
is always to do the milking after a
hard days work has been done In the
field. Often the milking was begun
at five or earlier in the morning and
in the evening when the milking was
done, the milk separated and the
calves all fed, 1t was from eight to
nine O'Clock.
The demands of the hired man of
today are not so much for higher
wages as they are for shorter days.
This is all right, and If the farmer
will cut few hours off the days
work in the field and use them in the
dairy business, he will make just as
much money and enjoy life great
deal more. Cows, in order to do
their best, should be MIXED at equal
intervals. II they are MIXED at five
in the morning they should be milk
ed at five in the evening. If this
plan is followed, am sure that the
hired man question will not be so
difficult one.
A hired man should be paid ac-
cording to his ability and willingness
to work. 2 If he Is sluggard and
still receives the same wages as the
alert man, the man with higher am
bition is discouraged because he does
not receive pay in proportion to the
amount of work he does. In many
cases the farmer is condemning the
hired man when the farmer himself
is doing about all he can to discour-
age the mans ability,
Human interest and Kindness are
perhaps the best means of getting
the most out of the hired man. If he
is greeted in cheerful way in the
morning when he meets his boss at
the barn, and is treated as a man,
| he feels that there is something in
this old world besides hard work and
will feel more like trying to please
his employer. On the other hand, II
the man is greeted in grouchy way
in the morning or receives no greet
ing at all, he feels that the man fol-
whom he is working is interested in
him only so far as he wishes to get
work out of him.
If some of the foregoing hints are
carried out the dairy business will
not be dreaded to SO great an extent
by the hired man and in the long run
the farmer will be money ahead. The
dairy business is certainly worth
while. Why should not the farmer
do his best to develop it on his farm
AS land advances in value, dairy
farming is sure to come, and the
sooner the farmer gets onto the band
wagon, the better it, will be for him

easily be imagined when it is remem-
bered that the Wilson law put a duty
of forty-fve per cent on wooden goods
and every wooden mill in this country
was closed by it.
Another organization that is appeal
ing to senators to protect it from free
trade is the Boot and Shoe Manufac-
turers' association. When the Payne
Aldrich bill was under consideration
these manufacturers urged that hides
be placed upon the free list and many
of them declared if this were done
they would not care whether a duty
was retained upon manufactured goods
or not.
Now, however, every senator is re-
receiving appeals from this ~organiza-
ton, urging him to vote against the
farmers free list, which removes the
duty from boots and shoes.
Representative Howell, of Utah, is
receiving many letters from his con-
stituents asking hat he use his best
endeavors to defeat the proposed re-
duction in the wool duty and the farm
ers' free list. Mr.. Howell is standing
firm upon the Republican platform and
will do all he can to prevent the pas
sage of these measures and others cal
culated to harm the industries of the
country.

PROTEST AGAINST TARIFF RE
DUCTION

The country is beginning to be heard
from on the Democratic tariff pro-
gram. Business men are besieging Re
publican senators and members of the
house to save them from the direful
effects of the farmers free list, the
proposed cut in the wooden schedule
and other legislation threatened by
the Democratic house. This plea for
intercession has become so strong and
so general that it is evident the coun-
Try is awakening to the real situation
and realizes the business depression
that will come if the proposed revision
is carried out.
When the Payne-Aldrieh bill was be-
fore the senate, representatives of the
National Clothing Manufacturers as
ISOLATION came to Washington and ask
ed that the duty upon wool and wool
en- goods be materially reduced. They
told President Taft that the tariff upon
the goods in a suit of clothes increased
Nv COoJ VI budt SUN PO. NOW III IL
evident they have experienced a
change of heart, for Senator Smoot, Of
Utah, a member of the finance com.
mittee, recently received from a large
clothing manufacturer of Chicago,
who is a member of the Manufacture
ers' association, an urgent appeal to
nynrf his affprtc anoipet fhn nrnno,ol
revision of the wooden schedule.
He says he sees no reason why the
senate should concur in a proposition
that will result in the destruction of
the sheep industry and the Republican
party, and d~enounces the Democratic
revision of schedule K as purely a po-
litical job.
"The reduction in the wool schedule
as proposed by the house," says Sen
ator Smoot s correspondent, whose
name the senator declines to divulge,
"would throw hundreds of thousands
of workmen out of employment and
would cause bread lines such as we ex-
perienced under the Wilson law.
"The clothing trade does not want
reductions, the letter says. cit
wants settled conditions and some sane
basis upon which to transact business.
| ask you to do all in your power to
block these bills as they come from the
house,
The most significant statements in
this letter are the concluding lines,
which follow:
reports from our road men are
very discouraging, the merchants gen.
orally fearing that wool prices will be
cut materially, and our orders this
spring will not average fifty per cent
OF what they did last year."
1t is learned upon good authority
that Chairman Underwood has report
ed to President Taft that ninety per
cent of the Democratic members of the
house favor free raw wool and the re-
naming ten per cent favor ad valorum
duty of fifteen per cent. The propo-
sition now before the ways and g
committee is, if the ad valorum duty
OF fifteen per cent be adopted, to put
a compensating duty of two and one
half times that, or thirty-seven and
one-half per cent, on wooden goods. |
1t raw wool is placed upon the free
list the committee proposes to make
the duty on wooden goods twenty-five
per cent. The result of such action can
