A Noble Task.

In too many instances the country
papers mimic the city press by CIV
ine 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 II cannot perform its mission
TO agriculture by recording the irail'
ties the mishaps and inordinate am
billions OF humanity, or by filling It's
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 dalIies
bristle with the struggle OF AMBITIOUS
mon in their wild lust for power ana
many times the flames OF personal
conflict scar the tender buds OF new
civilization and illuminate the path
way to destruction. The rural press
is tae governing power of public sent'
mont and must hold steadiast TO
nrinciple and keep the ship OF stare
IN the roadstead of progress. Inc
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

FARMER RADF0RD ON
WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The home is the greatest contribu-
ton OF Won IN TO the world. and the
hearthstone is her throne Our So
cial structure is built around her. and
social righteousness 10 in her charge
Her beautiful life lights the skies OF
hope and her refinement is the charm
of twentieth century civilization. Her
ersces and her power are the cumu-
lative products OF generations OF
quceniy conquest. and her crown OF
exalted womanhood is jeweled with
the wisdom OF sanity mothers. She
has been great factor in the glory
of our country. and her noble achieve
ments should not be marred or her
hallowed influence blighted by the
cuarser duties OF citizenship Ameri-
can chivalry should never permit her
10 bear the burdens of defending and
maintaining government. but should
preserve her unsullied from the allied
Influences of politics. and protect her
from the weighty responsibilities of
the sordid affairs of life that will
rush her ideals and lower her stand
ards. The motherhood of the farm
is our inspiration. she is the guardian
Of our domestic welfare and a guide
to a higher life. but directing the af
fairs of government is not within wo
mans sphere. and political GOSSIP
would cause her to neglect the home
forget to meul our clothes and burr
/ the biscuits.

A common question fasteners ASK
who are Interested IN this western

question Had such a question been
submitted 20 Mr.. n y. knight. who
lives northwest of Buhl. IN the lu-
cerne section, he doubtless would
have astonishod his questioners with
the answer Even those OF as who
live here would hardly credit the
statement that Mr. Knight realized
al the ratio of nearly a thousand dol
lars per acre from some land near
his home He says that he had 16
fruit trees on piece of land that
comprised about one-tenth of an
acre. and that from those trees and
the potatoes he planted between the
rows. he received sS185 Multiply
ing that by ten and an acre would
produce crops valued at sS18.S5.
Here is Mr. Knights own story:
ln 1909 I planted l6 2-year-old
fruit trees. placing them 16 feet
apart In 1914 ] picked fruit from
these trees, as follows, receiving the
amount indicated after each variety:

A TASK FOR REPUBLICANS

The Republican newspapers Of this state
have duty to perform the next few weeks
that 10 almost as hard . task a. was the
task OF swineinf this state back into the
column Of that political party. That task
10 to maintain public sentiment that will
sustain the members Of the assembly in
the reduction OF state expenses.
The laws and acts reducing those ex-
penses will be before the two houses dur.
ink the next month. Following the elec-
tion every politician in the state, almost.
picked some place he or she wanted and
started to land it. - There will be no re-
duction Of expense if all the positions are
re6lled. There 10 not . place but that is
sought for by from one TO fifty people.
Any attempt ON the part Of the members
Of the assembly to yscate position brings
. fight from those who are after the place
and . 6sht also from their friends. Under
those circumstances whenever q man
mentions abolishine position he is beset
with every Tom, Dick and Harry in the
state telling him that such position
should not be abolished.
We are here to say that We would have
just a. efficient state government il one
half the positions were abolished and that
the papers Of the state must hammer for
them to be abolished or the pressure will
be so sreat that the members of the
assembly will not abolish them. = Pueblo

MARKETING WORLDS
GREATEST PROBLEM
WE ARE LONG ON PRODUCTION,
SHORT ON DISTRIBUTION.
BY Peter Radford
urer National Farmers Union.


The economic distribution of farm
products is today the worlds greatest
problem and the war, while it has
brought its hardships, has clearly en-
phasized the Importance of distrfbu-
ton as a factor in American agricul-
ture and promises to give the farm
ers the cooperation Of the govern
ment and the business men the
solution of their marketing problem.
This result will, in measure, com
pensate us for our war losses, for the
business interests and government
have been in the main assisting al
most exclusively on the production
side of agriculture. While the depart
ment of agriculture has been dumping
tons of literature on the farmer telling
him how to produce, the farmer has
been dumping tons Of products in the
nations garbage can for want of a
market.
The World VIII Never Starve.
At no time since Adam and Eve
were driven from the Garden of Eden
have the inhabitants of this world
suffered from lack Of production, but
some people have gone hungry from
the day Of creation to this good hour
for the lack of proper distribution.
Slight variations in production have
forced change in diet and one local
ity has felt the pinch of want, while
another surfeited, but the world as a
whole has ever been land Of plenty.
We now have less than one-tenth of
the tillable land of the earth's surface
under cultivation, and we not only
have this surplus area to draw on but
Payette enterprise. (Payette, Canyon Co., Idaho) 1909-1935, 1915-02-18

it is safe to estimate that in case of
dire necessity one-half the earth's
population could at the present time
knock their living out of the trees
of the forest, gather it from wild
vines and draw 1t from streams. NO
one should become alarmed; the
world will never starve.
The consumer has always feared
that the producer would not supply
him and his fright has found express
sion on the statute books Of our states
and nations and the farmer has been
urged to produce recklessly and with
out reference to a market, and regard
less of the demands of the consumer.
Back to the Soil.
The city people have been urging
each other to move back to the farm,
but very few of them have moved.
We welcome our city cousins back to
the soil and this earth's surface con-
tains 1902, 100000 idle acres of till
able land where they can make
living by tickling the earth with
forked stick, but we do not need them
SO far as increasing production is con-
cerned; we now have all the producers
we can use The city man has very
erroneous ideas of agricultural condi-
lions. The commonly accepted theory
that we are short on production Is all
wrong. Our annual increase In pro-
duction far exceeds that Of our In
crease in population.
The World as a Farm.
Taking the world rs one big farm,
we find two billion acres Of land in
cultivation. OF this amount there Is
approximately 75O,OOO,OO0 acres on the
western and 1850, 100000 acres on the
eastern hemisphere, in cultivation.
This estimate, of course, does not in
clude grazing lands, forests, etc.,
where large quantities Of meat are
produced.
The worlds annual crop approx
mates fifteen billion bushels Of ce-
reals, thirteen billion pounds of fibre
and sixty-five million tons Of meat.
The average annual world crop for
the past five years, compared with the
previous five years. is as follows;
