HEAVY RAIN GIVES
FARMERS CONCERN

Pilot Rock, Ore, Aug 17.-The
heavy stand of grain In this part of
the county is causing farmers much
worry and severe losses In its handl-
ing. The header seems to have the
advantage of the combine this year.
Many of the fileds on account Of
their tangled condition, due to delay
In cutting and heavy winds, are
found hard to reach and already In
many instances third of the crop Il
total loss.
Frank Michaels In addition to hav-
ing suffered considerably as result
of the hail storm, is suffering an ad-
dltlonal loss on account of his wheat
being threshed out by the wind be-
cause of his inability To handle the
immense acreage he has In crop.
It Is reported the Fendersons Will
lose a third or o"e-half of their crop
and S. II. Randall who depended
upon the Hendersons to cut his crop.
will be heavy loser on account Of
not being able to save his crop. More
than enough to seed the ground is
already whipped out by the winds
and 1t may be two weeks before the
Hendersons will be able to turn into
the Randall wheat field which Will
mean total loss to him of his ex-
cellent crop.

them even approaching modern vir-
tue. Give me the consumptive to re-
form and subjugate the criminal"
The professor of sociology took an
entirely opposite view. Crime is not
inherited and never can be-" declared
Professor Henderson. THE desire to
commit crime is educated in the Grim
inal. If the child of the worst MUIR
derer were taken in by a good family
where he would lead a life far away
from the influences of crime, he
would have no desire to commit un-
| lawful deeds. on the other hand tu-
berculosis is a germ, although it is
not yet absolutely certain that it is
! transmissable to the next generation.
The physical weakness may be trans
mitted, but this may be overcome by
modern science.
ITO protect society the position
must be taken that tuberculosis must
not be permitted to marry. That is
the only way to wipe out the malady,
so far as the aid of science is known
today"
Il agree with the sociologist," said
Judge Joseph SABBATH. THE child of
the criminal is not bad in the begin
ming, but the tendency to commit
crime grows upon him through sur
roundings in which he is forced to
move"

In the Nye neighborhood the same
condition Is found. Barley fields
ripe for the sickle three weeks ago
are beginning to hug the ground and
may not be reached by their owners
for the next two or three weeks The
wheat which will not be cut until the
barley Is gathered Is already Smelling
and commencing to go down and the
loss will necessarily be heavy SO
badly are many OF the barley fields
down that 1t is found necessary to
cut II one way only in order to get
the bulk Of the crop.
In an effort to make all they could
out OF their big crop the farmers
were reluctant to go into debt for ad-
dltional machinery with the result
that they will lose more than the
necessary machinery to save their
crops would have cost them.
Buestem seems to stand the de-
lay in being cut better than any Of

of Chicago, agreed more than any
one else with DR.. Smith in his Lon
don speech. According to the socio-
logist, crime is not in any manner in
herited but is an act or disposition
acquired by social neglect. He also
declared that the danger Of the tu-
bercular person to civilization and to
society is so great that any person
afflicted with the disease should not
be allowed to marry.
IF DIR. Smith had said, Il would
rather be the son of a robust bishop
than a consumptive burglar his state
ment would have doubled in value" "
remarked DIR. Lindsay Wynekoop
HE is quite right in theory, but
would not approve Of the practically
of it. of course, physical foundation
| is supreme for the building of a
great civilization. A person should
take care in selecting mate from
a physical standpoint, as we'll as look
ing at the social standing or the fl
nancial position of the one he or she
is to marry.
But the mental requirements must
also be taken into consideration. l
would not approve of girl marrying
n big hulk of a man just because
he was strong in body. The healthiest
OF children might result from such a
marriage. but the happiness of their
married life would be totally spoiled.
They would have nothing in common
with each other The one far sur
passes the other mentally, even as the
other is surpassed physically"
well" said Jailer Davies. there's
not much chance for either the son
of a criminal or the consumptive. /
don't mean to say that crime is in
herited. for I don't think there Is
anything to that theory. Crime is not
inherited, but it is pounded into the
child from boyhood up by his sur
rounding conditions and If he has a
| father who is a criminal he has no
chance at all. for he'll he even worse.
The criminal. however, is more
| dangerous to society in my opinion
/ than is the consumptive. because you
can avoid the latter. but YOU can't
set away from the criminal. I am
not a believer in heredity of crime
/ Criminal instincts are not handed
down but are a result of environment
and teaching. Give me the con-
sumptive. I'd rather try to cure him
than to reform a criminal"
The Greater Obstacle
THE position taken by DR.. Smith,
declared DR. Cornelia DeBey, Il:
midway between the theory of the
savage and scientific theories now il
progress. Both the child of the tu'
bercular parent and the one of Grim
inal heritage has a great tendency tC
overcome. The criminal inheritance
is the greater obstacle. The tendenc!
of tuberculosis can be overcome b!
the advancement Of modern science
but it is the next thing to imposstblit,
10 overcome an inheritance of crime
"The tendency to commit crime l.
a certain form of egotism, and tina
is the hardest attribute to eradicate
1t may be adjusted and controlled L
certain extent, but the desire L
steal, to take another's possessions, /
always sure to crop out even in severa
generations to come. 1t is much eas
