A SUGGESTION TO TEXAS CON
GRESSMEN.

The production of fruits and vcgeta-
bles is an industry that has grown 10
enormous proportions in Texas III the
last few years. BY reason of its superior
climate. and soil, Texas is able to have
all kinds of fruits and vegetables ready
for the consumers in the North long be
fore the home product is ready.
With all of these advantages, this III
dustry is not returning to the farmers
proper and adequate compensation for
the labor and capital invested. This un-
satisfactory condition appears to be due
largely to a lack of system in market
ing the products of orchard and garden.
Mr.. William Doherty in a recent in
terview published in The Chronicle, out
lined a plan that will at once commend
itself to every thoughtful man who reads
it. Mr.. Doherty suggests that the matter
Of distribution be taken in hand by the
federal government through its depare-
Iment of agriculture. 1t is pointed out
that millions of dollars are spent annu
ally to increase production, and, ii is
COiitChuNh. - NHuuiis important "h'
logical that a sufficient sum should be
spent in placing in the hands Of the
farmers information that will result in
more systematic distribution.
Tis is a subject in which the Texas
delegation in congress may well take
an interest. Texas, having the greatest
volume of business in this class of farm
products. should take the lead in bring
ing about the reforms suggested.
Numerous farmers organizations have
already indorscd the establishing of a
bureau of markets in the department of
agriculture. and the President elect VII
son has already expressed himself ia
vorablv 10 the plan. The suggestions
made by Mr.. Doherty 90 Il little further
than those heretofore made and offer
a comprehensive basis for needed lcgis
l%lation. The speedy solution Of the mar
ket problem means millions to the PEG
pie of Texas.
If the farmers of Texas are prosper
ious every one in Texas is prosperous

THEY THAT SOW THE WIND.

1t is becoming more and more evident
that barbarism is not an attribute of the
Turks alone in the frightful war now
raging in the Balkan peninsula. Pillage
and massacre, revolving, u~nspeakable,
and Understandable cruelty, have marked
both the triumphs and the defeats of all
the armies concerned. Tuesdays press
dispatches contained horrible accounts
of the massacre Of Mohammedans by the
Greeks of SalOniki. The crimes are as
cribed not to the soldiers, but to a mob
composed of the So-called Christian pop
~ulation of the city.
Some details of the OutrageS were
given in the papers. Other details, many
other details, were suppressed for obvi-
Gus reasons. Yet as to the perpetrators
of those shameful deeds. if we substi-
tute the words Turk. Kurd. Mohammcdan

their ancient grudge against the Turks.
We may be Mortified at the story. but We
need not be surprised at it.
True, revenge il not a Christian vir-
tue, nor is hatred a Christian attribute.
Yet we must not forget that the people
who are engaged in the Balkan war, on
the side of the allies, are, as a mass, lit

selves, and their ancestors for genera
tons. 1t is foolish to say that the atroc.
tiles at SdIoniki are the worst in history.
The history of those semi -barbarians is
full of records of similar things inflicted
on men, women and children of their
race. What they nave lone cannot be
justified on any ground, but it can be
explained. And the story that comes tC
us from the ancient Greek city where
Paul once preached, recalls to us the
words of Paul. whatsoever a man SOW.

words again reminds us of that other
ancient saying, They who SOW the wind
