MEXICO: LAND or MYSTERY.

There have been many surprises In |
the Mexican revolution since it began
four years ago. Can anyone point to !!
o. more stunning surprise than the
good order" in Mexico City since the |
bandit Zapata entered the capital?
Villa was always the impossible: but
Zapatn carried one over the precipice
down into the black depths of anar-
chy and barbarism. For four years no
Cne had ever read or heard of a single
good thing about zapata. He was a
bloodthirsty villain. hopclessly given
over to rapine and plunder. The
mercy CT Zapata and his brigand bands
filled every one of us with an emotion
OF horror.
Mexico Is more than ever 4 land of
mystery, now that the worst has hap
pened and the unspeakabe Xapata
has won a. shining testimonial from
the Brazilian minister at Mexico City
for his eminently civilized conduct. On
the authority of that distinguished
diplomatist, it is established that since
I; the Zapatistas entered the capital the
few cases of robbery and violence"
have been punished-evcn with the
execution Of the culprits in some in
stances" Spaniards are being treat
ed with special consideration
But most extraordinary because, in
such violent opposition to all precon-
ceived IDEAS of Zapatista government.
is the news that $4,000 pesos borrowed
from bankers and business men was
paid back to them, and that the
property and funds taken from the
tram car company" by the Carranza
administration, have been returned"
Zapata himself refused to go to the
national palace ito receive Il popular
demonstration, but stayed at mod
est hotel in the suburbs" The saw
age.
In view of these unexpected devel-
opments in the history Of Mexican
civilization, what can be done but he
resigned and leave Mexico TO its ban
dts? Ii Zapata and Billa continue to
disappoint expectations in that afro
ciOus style. the man who pretends to
know Mexico will bo regarded with
universal suspicion and no little dis
gust-Springfield Republican.

St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1914-08-01
STAY ON THE FARM AND BE
YOUR OWN BOSS

There is one thing We should like
to urge very strongly in this issue,
Mr. Farmer Boy, and that is that you
stay on the farm where you can be
your own boss, instead of going off
| to the city to be somebody's clerk or
hired man-rhat is, unless you have
some special marked and definite tai
ent for some particular work.
! It is true, of course, that the
farmer does not now get all the pro-
fit he ought to get-nor all he is go
| ing to get-but it is also true that the
| workingman in the country fares bet
ter than the workingman in town.
Read all you can, study all you can,
and prepare yourself to be a good
farmer-a genuinely wide-awake,
progressive, farmer and you VIII,
nine chances out of ten, fare better
than if you should go to town.
AS we see it, the farmers day is
coming. The thought of the world
| is turned as never before to building
up he country. The Government
itself which was once interested in
protecting. manufactures, developing
manufactures, and building up the
towns, is beginning to see that
the source of all prosperity is
the farm. But the one best sign is
getting around and studying their
privileges and rights. Already the
awakening and organization OF the
| farmers have resulted in untold good,
and you ought to resolve now that
there shall be farmers organization
in your neighborhood as long as you
live. If you are over Is years old.
join the Farmers Union or whatever
other organization is nearest you, and
take an active part in it. Speak to
your father about it.
Another thing which insures better
times for the Southern farmer is this:
for a hundred years until very recent
~ we have had to compete with
cheapland farmers in the West.
That is to say, any farmer could go
out West and stake out ''home-
stead, and sell his crop without al
lowance for land value because his
Ind cost him nothing, or practically
nothing. But all that is past. The
cheap lands of the W,st have gone,
and now when the Western farmer
sells his crop he must add SIS and$1O
per acre as an allowance for rent or
for interest on land values. And
because of this fact crops simply
can't be sold sold as cheaply as
formely.
Then, too, city populations have in
creased faster than country popula-
ton the whole world over, and 1t is
becoming more and more difficult for
the city people to get enough meats
and food stuffs. There arc several
million more people in the United
States than there were five years ago,
while there are several million fewer
meat animals. This is an indication
that farm products must go higher,
especially livestock.
One of the greatest Of the worlds
students of rural problems declared
recently that in the future labor on
the farm is going to be better paid
than labor in the towns, and we be-
leive he is right. Stick to the farm.
