Free Ports for Commerce.
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRo.
PRlATloNs.
BY Peter Radford.

This nation is now entering upon
an era of marine development. The
wreckage of European commerce has
drifted to our shores and the world
war is making unprecedented de-
mands for the products of farm and
factory. In transportation facilities
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag
Is seldom seen in foreign ports. If
our government would only divert the
energy we have displayed in conquer
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of the sea, a foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the oceans
highways.
This article will be confined to a
discussion of our ports for the pro-
ducts of the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 81 ports, of which
Al are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated over s51,000,.
600 for improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise leyies
toll of approximately $50,000,OO0
annually in wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered
The latter item should be lifted off
the backs of the farmer of this ma
ton and this can be done by Congress
directing its appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up
to wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. 1t takes
out the unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for centuries laid heavy hand
upon commerce. No movement is so
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that of free port
and none can be more easily and eff
fectively secured.

THE VITAL PROBLEM OF
AGRICULTURE
By Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
of agriculture will not be attained
until it is solved, for a market
is as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop
Governmental and educational insti
tutions have spent $1S0,000,000 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants, but
very little attention and less money
has been given to the marketing side
of agriculture.
The problem is monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until it gets within the grasp of q
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom Of the age
upon it. 1t is problem which the
farmers, merchants, bankers, editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods of seed selection to

plans of marketing, but does not be.
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and com.
mercial agencies seeking to help us,
continue to give us their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
influence should be extended to the
marketing side of our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu-.
featuring by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan-
tile enterprises by the merchants load.

and no more can we develop agricul.

DARIUS

The neigh of horse made Darius
King Of Persia, the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method Of
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
II our partisan factions and petty poll
iticians could only settle their dis
putes by the nf@h Of a horse, the
bark of dog or the bray of a donkey,
it would be great blessing and would
give our citizens better opportunity
to pursue the vacations of industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who flash swords
dripping in the blood of industry un-
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into political arena and
by a clash of personal aspirations
stiIl the hammer and stop the plow
and that their quarrels must be settled
in the back alleys Of civilization.

FOR MERIDIAN HOUSEWIVES

To Can Strawberries So They Will
Not Lose Color-In canning straw
berries so they will keep the dark
red color, it seems almost necessary
to use variety of berry that is dark
red to the core. Fill the jar to the
top with fruit, pour in a sugar syrup
to taste, (some prefer canned fruit
much sweeter than others) and set
the jars in a boiler or warm mot
hot) water. Jars must not touch
and must be placed on cloth or
rack. Let the water come slowly to
boil and boil 10 minutes. Remove
jars and tighten the lids, if of the
lid variety. Strawberries and rasp-
berries need very little cooking to
be soft and to keep. Long cooking
causes the berries to shrivel and lose
their color. If one prefers more ber-
ries and less juice it is often neces-
sary to fill the jars from another jar
of berries.

this. Or the fresh berries may be

APPEAL MADE FOR
PROTECTION OF CATS
(By Associated Press. J

London, Sept. S--An urgent ap-
peal in behalf of cats home, stat
ing that this dreadful war will,
break us unless our kind friends
help us to hold on" moves the Times
to an editorial protest.
"ln the throes Of the most dreadful
war of modern times remarks the
paper, when millions of human be-
ings are suffering death, mutilation,
famine, disease and the added ang-
uish that comes of looking before
and after, exhortations to bestow
aims upon animals seem a little out
of season.
The appeal for the home for cats
is signed by large number Of
names out of the peerage. 1t is a
large organization with chartered
accountants and five cat hospitals.
where 80 per cent of the patients are
destroyed painlessly on admittance
and the remainder kept as guests. A
cart calls for patients, and in urgent
cases special MESSENGER is sent for
them. There is also a night bell so
that patients may be received at
all hours. Wealthy p sons wish
ing to get rid of their pets may do so
at a moderate fee.
One serious phase of the cat
situation is the large number left
behind by departed or interned Ger
maps.
The appeal admits: "It is dreadful
to have to ask for animals when our
poor and the nation and dear sold
iers reqtire so much. but the rescue
work must go on"
This is no time to maunder over
cats" retorts the Times.
