SEED AND BANKERS

Recently the bankers of Aberdeen
S. D., set aside $1,000 to be used by
the better farming association and the
purchase of dry land alfalfa seed
The seed was secured from farmers
living in the dry part OF the state,
and will be sold at cost to the coop
perative farmers Of the association.
The cooperation of the bankers at
this time goes a long way toward in.
creasing the alfalfa acreage in this
locality. It permits the farmers to
get hardy dry land seed at first cost
Last year the association was instru-
mental in putting in $500 acres OF al
falfa in one county. About Is pei
cent. of this acreage made successul
catch The plan that has been adopt
ed for next season will more than
double this acreage, according to the
Northwest Farmstead.
If bankers in other localities woult
follow this lead it viii have a tire
mendous bearing on the alfalfa acre
age. Last season was good for al
falfa seed production, and seed il
plentiful for next seasons planting
Farmers everywhere are rapidly real
izing the value of this most importan
crop, and are planning on increasing
the acreage. The large seed suppl!
is pleasing because it will material,
assist farmers in securing seed. Th'
FFarmstead believes the alfalfa cam
paign now on in Minnesota and Soutl
Dakota will put the queen of forag'
crops where it will be a regular crol
in systematic rotation; just tht
thing needed.

MOTHERS S DAY.

The thought of setting aside a day
like next Sunday to be called "Moth-
er's Day" was a most happy one,
for on the mother depends the char
acter of a people, on the mother de-
pends the status of the home. Since
the birth of the Savior motherhood
has been still more exalted, though
from the first, the reverence and love
drawn around the mothers have been
in great part the worlds anchor.
Millions of men sorely tempted, have
been saved by the thought: "Were
1 to do what 1 am contemplating
now, what would my mothers spirit
think, if now she is looking down
from heaven upon met" The sane
tity of the home centers on the
mother, and the man who through his
passion or his bigotry would cast

THE NEW BIRTH.

Springtime, with its wonderful
awakening and revivication of ma.
ture, is the most interesting season OF
the year. The awakening of the
flowers and trees, the return of the
birds, and the departure of winter
mark an era in the life of the world
each year, far more distinctly than
does the arbitrary dates of the calen-
dar. Every man and woman, boy and
girl, is interested in the unfolding
and rejuvenation of natures handi-
work, and the opening of the buds
and the uplifting of the grasses and
the songs Of the happy birds, at
this resurrection from the winters
tomb, is of Importance to all.
The mystery of life, its meaning
and value, may never be fully under
stood by man, and yet he may study
nature and learn something of the
grandeur of creation and learn to
love the all-guiding, all-powerful hand
that has provided so wonderfully for
each generation of mankind, by insur-
ing annual seed-time and harvest,
sun and rain, spring and fall, sum
mer and winter, all having a work
and place and each necessary in the
general plan. The tiny seed, SEEM
ingly dead during the long winter,
breaks open when the sun shines in
refulgent springtime glory and heat,
and from it comes forth miracle of
lovliness and worth, and soon the
old world that was practically bare
becomes enclothed with verdure more
beautiful and diversified than man
has been able to weave by the aid
of his brain and material powers,
and humanity is blessed by fruits and
grains for its life and comforts and
luxury. Skeptics of a future life
fail to answer or solve the problem
enacted each recurring year, and man
kind rises to the nobler idea of eter-
nal promise and acquisition in a world
just over the boundary marked by
material death and seeming decay.

WILL 1T BRING PEACE7

Although announcement has been
made that the three South American
mediators in the Mexican trouble will
meet at Niagara Falls, Canada, on
May 18, to receive representatives OF
the parties to the controversy, the be-
lief is not strong that the conference
will bring peace. 1t is not believed
possible that any satisfactory pact
can be reached which will satisfy the
ambitions of Huerta, Villa, Carranza
and the other warning factions and
at the same time satisfy Washington.
Nevertheless no criticism is visited
upon the president for accepting the
good offices of our South American
neighbors. 1t is felt, however, that
the period devoted to mediation
should not be long drawn out, and
that resumption of hostilities, if
mediation fail, should be vigorous
and crushing.
1t is felt that the loss Of life will
be much smaller if an overwhelming
force is sent to Mexico and the war
fought quickly than it will be if we
attack the problem with a small force
in reluctant and less effectual way.
At Washington the hope of all, ex-
cept some of the immediate advisers
of the president, is that, in case
mediation fails, sufficient force to
clean up Mexico and establish an
American protectorate be sent there
at once. Secretary Bryan's apparent
desire that we join hands with Villa
does not meet with the approval of
those who know the situation in a
general way. 1t is not thought that
this is the way to permanent tran
quillity and eventual civilization in
Mexico.

PAYS HIGH COMPLIMENT.

The most distinguished compliment
that has yet been paid to a newspaper
was paid when the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Co. sued the Rocky Mountain
News and the Denver Times for five
hundred thousand dollars damages.
These papers had been printing with
truthful detail the tragic story at
Ludlow where women and children
have been killed in the mining trouble,
where flesh and blood have been held
to be cheaper than business gain.
John C. Shaffer, new proprietor of the
Rocky Mountain News and Denver
Times, takes the position that this
suit is fight against the freedom
of the press.
The story Of Colorado mining troub-
les has been a tragic and sordid
story and an effort has been made by
a special committee of the Chamber
of Commerce of Denver to doctor the
news so as to minimize the horror of
the situation. Mr.. Shaffer has cour-
ageously refused to do this and he
must now stand a libel suit probably
before a jury that will be deeply
prejudiced in favor of doctoring news.
The other publishers Of the country
will watch the case closely.
1t touches the right of the public
to know the facts and the right and
obligation of the newspapers to pub
lish the facts. News is straight
out commodity to be sold upon its
merits as news under modern regu-
lations. 1t should not be doctored
any more than food should be doe
tored. Mr.. Shaffer will win his fight
in the court of public opinion. In
the forum of conscience he will be
victorious and he will receive the en-
couragement of all the creditable
members of his profession in the
world.

ing to show that these men were not
afterwards forgiven by high heaven
for their moral lapses, but men are
not so generous when candidates
come up for office. If there is weak
place in mans armor it is shot
full of holes. England, as great and
powerful as she is, has had but few
rulers that could have been elected
to high office in this country. While
this general onslaught is on and men
in high places are targets for all
manner of criticism, if not actual
slander, it is well to consider these
things.

That is a splendid endorsement of
the candidacy of Harry H. Belt for
the circuit judgeship given in another
column of The Observer today by
representative citizens of this judicial
district. This is an unsolicited open
letter to the voters of Polk, Yamhill
and Tillamook counties, and conse-
quently carries with it more than
usual weight. While Mr.. Belt is
young in years -he~is old in experience,
his training having been under the
immediate direction of his uncle,

of the Supreme Court of Oregon.

THE MALE NIGHT SHIRT.

Evidently seeking relief from the
effects of cussing and discussing the
candidates campaign the editor of a
valued exchange finds fault with the
male night shirt. The gentleman sees
no affinity between elegance and the
night-shirt. He enters complaint that
it makes an exhibit of a mans ped
al extremities and flaps when he
walks. But suppose it does. If there
is any place on this globular wad
where a man has a perfect right to
expose his legs, it is in the sanctity
of his own bedchamber. So long as
one does not use the night-gown for
society purposes what if it does hoist
up a bit when a man sits on his
downy couch, or flaps when he hops
across the room in an endeavor to
disengage his off hind leg from his
trousers7 OF course if a man is Civ
en- to incubus, nightmare or somnam-
bulism, and is not content to prone
made under his own vine and fig tree,
then we say, for the peace of the

One who perused the council pro-
ceedings in Tuesdays Observer may
have imagined that when Mayor Van
Orsdel called the aldermanic body to
order he was about to perform a geo.
logical experiment, or test the "sand "
of his co-workers. Not so. The proof
reader simply overlooked "gravel"
for "gavel." Typographical errors
are greater pest to the newspaper

the latter.
