A broad campaign of ,ublicity on
the subject of rural life is needed In
this state today to bring We problems
of the farmers to the T. front. The
city problems are blaze I'll upon the
front pages of the met ,Oiitan dali
les and echoed In the nry press,
but the troubles o. the armers are
seldom told, except b. those who
seek to profit by the story. and the
glitter of the package ofttimes OBJ
scures the substance. A searching in
vestigation into the needs OF the
farmers will reveal many inherent de-
fects in our economic system that can
he easily remedied when properly I'M
derstood and Illuminated by the pow
er of the press.
The rural press, the Pulpit and the
school are trinity OF yowerful In
iluences that the farmer must utilize
to their fullest capacity fore he can
occupy a commanding pc lion in pub
lie affairs. These gigantic gencies are
organized In every rural community
and only await the patrc age and CO
operation of the farmers to fully de-
velop their energy anu usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best interests of their respective
communities. Their work 10 to build
and their object is to serve. They
prosper only through the development
and prosperity of the community.
Every farmer in this stats should
subscribe for the local paper, as we'll
as farm periodicals and such other
publications as he may md profitable,
but he should by all means subscribe
for his local paper, and no home
should be without it. The local paper
is part of the community life and the

study the local problems and through
its columns deal with subjects Of most
vital importance to local life of the

The Power Of Advertising.

The influence OF advertising is clear
ly visible In the homes and habits of
the farmers. and the advertising cor
umns Of the press are making their
imprint upon the lives OF our people.
The farmer possesses [. : things that
are best advertised.
The farmer is entitl / to all the
advantages and deserves all the lux

What is a Fair Rate?

We do not know what constitutes a
basis for rate making and have never
heard of anyone who did claim TO
know much about il, but If the pros
perity Of the farm is a factor TO be
considered and the railroad commits
sion concludes that an increase In
rates is necessary, We would prefer
that Il come to US through articles of
consumption on their journey from
the factory TO the farm. We would
for example, prefer that the rate on
nogs remain as at present and the
rate on meat bear the increase, for
any farmer can then avoid the burden
by raising his own meat, and a farm
err who will not try to raise his own
meat ought to be penalized. We
think the rate on coal and brick can
much better bear an increase than
Che rate on cotton and -four. We
would prefer that the rate on plows
remain the same, and machinery,
pianos and such articles as the poor
er. farmer cannot hope to possess bear
the burden Of increase.
The increase in rates should be so
arranged that the farmer who lives
at home will bear no part OF the bur
den. but let the farmer who boards
in other states and countries and
who feeds his stock in foreign lands,
pay the price of his folly.

A Noble Tas..

In too many instances the country
papers mimic the city lress by Civ.
ing prominence to scandals, accidents
and political agitation. The new
rural civilization has placed upon the
rural press renewed responsibilities.
and enlarged possibilities for useful
ness. 1t cannot perform its mission
to agriculture by recording the frail-
ties the mishaps and L. jrdinate am
billions of humanity or by filling its
columns with the echoes of the strug-
giles OF busy streets, or by enchanting
stories of city life which lure our
children from the farm.
1t has a higher and nobler task.
Too often the pages Of the city dailies
bristle with the struggle of ambitious
men in their wild lust for power, and
many times the flames of personal
conflict scar the tender 5uds Of new
civilization and illuminate the path
way to destruction. The rural press
is the governing power of public senti-
ment and must hold steadfast to
principle and keep the ship Of state
in the roadstead Of progress. The
rural press can best serve the inter
ests OF the farmers by applying it's
energies to the solution of problems
affecting the local community. II
must stem the mighty life current
that is moving from th9 farm TO the
cities. sweeping before IL a thousand
boys and girls per day. 1t has to deal
with the fundamental problems of
civilization at their fountain head. Its
mission is to direct growth. teach ef-
ficiency and mold the intellectual life
of the country, placing before the pub
lie the daily problems Of the farmers
and giving first attention to the leg
islative, cooperative. educational and
social needs of the agricultural classes
within its respective community.

The recent action of the Interstate
Commerce Commission In granting an
Increase In freight rates in the eastern
classification of territory; the applica-
. ton of the roads to state and inter
state commissions for an increase in
rates, and The uttgrauCes Of President
Wilson on The subject bring the farm
ers of this nation face to face with The
problem of an increase in freight
rates. II is the policy of the Farm srs
Union to meet the issues atfec ling the
welfare Of the farmers squarsly and
we will do so in this instance.
The transportation facilities Of the
United States are inadequate to ef-
fectiyely meet the demands Of com
merce and particularly in the South
and West additional railway mileage
is needed to accommodate the move
ment of farm products. If in the wis
dom of our Railroad Commissions an
increase in freight rates is necessary
to bring about an improvement in our
transportation service, and an extern
sion of our mileage. then an increase
should be granted and the farmer Is
willing 10 share such proportion Of
the increase as justly belongs to him,
but we have some suggestions to make
as to the manner in which this in
crease shall be levied

Rates Follow Lines Of Least Resist
ance.

The freight rates of the nation have
been built up along lines Of least re-
sistance. The merchant, the manu-
facturer, the miner, the miller, the
lumberman and the cattleman have
had their traffic bureaus thoroughly
organized and in many instances they
have pursued the railroad without
mercy aud with the power of organ
lied tonnage they have hammered the
life out of the rates and with unre-
strained greed they have eaten the
vitals out Of our sportation system
and since we have had railroad com
missions. these interests, with skill
and cunning, are represented at every
hearing in which their business Is
involved
The farmer is seldom represented
at rate hearings, as his organizations
have never had the finances TO EN-
ploy counsel TO develop his side of
the case and, as a result, the products
of the plow bear an unequal burden
of the freight expense. A glance at
the freight tariffs abundantly proves
this assertion Cotton, the leading
agricultural product Of the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate OF
any necessary commodity in com
merce, and the rate on agricultural
products as a whole is out Of pro
portion with that of the products OF
the factory and the mine.
We offer no schedule of rates, but
hope the commission will be able to
give the railroad such an increase In
rates as is necessary without levying
a further toll upon the products Of
the pillow. The instance seems to pre-
sent an opportunity TO the Railroad
Commissions to equalize the rates as
between agricultural and other classes
Of freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.

UNITE UNDER MoNRoE,sM

When the delegate from Colombia
to the Pan American conference at
Washington DR.. S. P. Triana, declared
+ That the United States and the other
nations of America should join in a
Union to defend the Monroe doctrine"
he gave expression to an attitude
which should not only have been taken
long ago, but he pointed out an ALI
ance which should be in existence at
the present time.
That such a statement should have
come from the representative of CO.
1ombia is the cause for no little sur
prise inasmuch as that republic is sup
posed to have a grievance against the
United States because of the injustice
which it feels has been done it, but
3 the fact that the suggestion comes
from such a source gives additional
! reason for approaching the signifi-
canoe of it.
The Monroe doctrine was suggested
and adopted for the purpose of not
only protecting this country, but of
doing the same thing for the rest of
The countries in America 1t is a
measure which is decidedly in their
interests and for Colombia to cham
pion it indicates an important change
Df front from that direction.
The fact is that there should be
! the strongest ties possible between the
4 Americans. There has been a grow
glng recognition of this in the past
4 decade or so and the sooner it re-
! suits in something tangible the better
s for all concerned. Instead of looking
aHpon the Monroe doctrine with sus-
picion it is high time that it's value
kwas recognized at its true worth. 1t
is a valuable endorsement of the 20
ssition of this country and it's attitude
ito its neighbors and the sooner the
suggestion of DR.. Triana is carried out
the better.

NEW SUBMARINE LAURELs.

The torpedoing of two British bat
tleshfps on successive days in the
Dardanelles is the first evidence that
the Turko German forces defending
that gateway to the Black sea are
in possession of submarines. Warships
have been lost there before, but by
other means, while the allies have
used the underwater, craft with excel
lent results ever since they began their
operations.
The introduction of the submarines
means a new source of danger to the
attacking squadron. It is one of the
elements which has kept the British
navy away from the coast of Germany
and the establishment of an actual
blockade of its ports. and if those
brought into the Dardanelles can es-
cape detection they promise to serious
ly affect the assault upon that well
fortified waterway by the floating
fortresses.
Battleships Of Whatever type they
may be furnish an admirable target
for the submarines and as long as they
can be kept out of sight and lop off
a big ship at the rate of one a day,
or even occasionally, they present a
formidable defense which neutralizes
Ih0 CAONI VI t410 IdL sc dIIu SlIOuS
squadron of warships. It demonstrates
again the Importance which is attach
ed to this branch of every navy
Against the endeavor to force the Oar
danelles the Turks have made a cap
itaI defense by their mines and big
guns mounted on shore, but henceforth
it would appear that the submarine
must be resorted to for a greater share
of the work even as the allies have
found they can thereby do effective
work in the Sea of Marmora- 1t fur
Their demonstrates the futi1ity of think
ing that the Dardanelles can be taken
solely by relying upon naval forces
The submarine is gaining new laures
every day. - -..-... ..-.-..
