by Rev. A. C. Lathrop. Grandma

THE MAN WHO WILL TAKE YOUR PLACE.

Here is toast that want to drink to fellow III
know
To the fellow who's going to take my place when it's
time for to go.
I've wondered what sort of chap he'll be and I've
wished could take his hand,
Just to whisper q wish you well, old man" in
that he'd understand.
I'd like to give him the cheering word that I've longed
at times to hear;
I'd like to give him the warm handclasp when never
a friend
I've learned my knowledge by sheer hard work and /
wish could pass it on
To the fellow who'll come to take my place some day
when am gone.
Will he all the sad mistakes I've made and note all
the battles lost?
Will he guess of the tears they caused or the
heartaches which they cost?
Will he gaze through the failures and fruess toll to
the underlying plan,
And catch glimpse of the real intent and the heart of
the yanquished man?

Rural Observations
BY c. Fl. MARTIN.

According to old timers there has
been less rain the past spring than
for several years past. Those who
stirred their ground early and con-
served all the moisture were lucky, as
number have been compelled to irri-
gate their ground before planting
corn this spring.

Advocating an interstate trade com.
mission to have the power to pass
upon the proposed practice of coop
GRAFTON, President Charles r. Van
Hise of the University of Wisconsin
showed where the cooperative move
ment of the United States is in dam
ger of being held up because it is Ii
able TO be declared in violation of
the Sherman Antitrust act In a
banqet address before the Second Ma
tional Conference on Marketing and
Farm Credits and the Western Eco
nomic Society, President Van Hise
said:
The Sherman antitrust act pro-
vides that "every contract, combina-
ton in the form of trust, or otherwise,
or conspiracy in restraint of trade or
commerce among the several states or
with foreign nations is hereby de-
clared to be illegal" A similar pro-
vision applies to monopoly or attempt
to monopolize. For the violation of
this act there are heavy penalties by
fine or Imprisonment, or by both
This law is sweeping in its terms
1t applies alike to the producer and
the consumer, to the laborer and the
magnate, This statement is sustained
by the Interpretation OF the courts.
Various labor organizations have been
prosecuted and fined under the Sher-
man act. Also boards of trade en-
gagged in marketing agricultural pro-
ducts are now under attack and one
fruit growers exchange at Portland, |
Ore. has pleaded guilty under the law
and been heavily fined.
Congress well understands this sit
uation; and, at recent sessions, they
attached to the paragraph of the sun
dry civil bill containing an appropria-
ton of 100000 for the enforcement
of the antitrust laws a proviso that
none Of this money should be spent
in prosecuting combinations or agree
ments Of labor, nor spent "for the
prosecution of producers of farm
products and associations of farmers
who cooperate and organize in an eff
fort to and for the purpose to obtain
and maintain a fair and reasonable
price for their products.

" HE apple crop in the Emmett
valley this year will surpass
all previous records, as will
also the peach crop. From re-
ports, peaches and prunes through
out the Northwest have suffered
greatly from the frosts the past
month and we fruitgrowers of EN-
nett stand to make reasonable re-
turn for our efforts this season. We
note in the Business Forecast" for
May, issued by the Merchants Nation
al bank of Portland, the following,
which may be of interest TO Emmett
fruit and wool growers:
Fruit conditions are not quite as fa-
vorable as last month. Prunes and
fered severely from cold weather,
rains and frost. The reverses will
have a visible effect on the fruit rev.
enue of Oregon. Except for these
two particularly items the fruit crop
prediction for the Northwest is good.
lHere are only lew lroSt SpotS no
ticeable. However, the improved
conditions in cooperation by the vari-
Gus fruit districts looking toward bet
ter marketing and transportation fla
cilities, the erection of cold storage
plants in preparation for the opening
of the Panama canal, all of which
make for stiffening of the market
price, it is believed will bring the
fruit season out in good shape.
Wool growers in general are firm in
the belief that their product will
maintain high prices and the present
condition of the market is bringing
a great deal of new money into the
Northwest. Reports from the East
confirm the local attitude.

Owing to the very dry spring
fruitgrowers should not overlook the
moisture content of their soil. Fruit
trees on the mesa and many on the
slope will need water very soon in
order to properly nourish the fruit
now set on the same. This is point
that should be watched very closely.

The past week has seen more corn
planted in the Emmett valley than
during like period in the history of
the valley. Indications now are that
the local ranchmen will have plenty
of corn to feed out their hogs this
fall, without having the bulk of them
when half grown or buy feed, as was
done by many last fall.

This is said to be an age of con-
centratioh of energy, but the farmer
is the one man who cannot safely
concentrate all his energies on one
line of action and be sure of success.
Dairying alone is not, as rule, very
profitable, but in connection with
other line of work it is profitable,
as there is no other line of work that
so builds up farm, without depicting
the soil as does dairying. In the EN-
NETT valley there is an opportunity
to make dairying and hog raising sup
Elemental to general fruit growing,
thus assuring weekly pay check re-
gardless of the frost.
