BOSS" OF BRAZIL is SLAIN
Senator Pinheiro Msrchado Victim Of
an Assassin.

Rio Janeiro. Sept 10.-The assas-
sination of Senator Pinheiro Machado
has caused a profound sensation
throughout Brazil. The Spaniard
charged with his murder has con.
fessed, the authorities assert. that he
had no accomplices and that he killed
Senator Machado because he blamed
the politician for the misfortunes
which had befallen his family.
Machado frequently was referred to
as the political boss" of Brazil. He
was president of the senate and leader
OF the Conservatives. He had become
unpopular of late because he cham
poined the cause of former President
Fonseca, who recently was elected tc
the senate.

Chicago, Sept. 10.--Huge clean
ups" are reported to have been made
by Chicagoans in the wheat market

the Chicago and Minneapolis markets.
His winnings in these operations are
said to have been In the neighbor-

aggressively "bearish" because of the
prospect for big crops have made for.

Making the Little
Farm Pay
By c. c. BowsFIELD

In view Of the general determination
! to secure larger financial returns from
agriculture, more than ordinary atten-
ton is being given this year to truck
farming.
This branch of industry takes a
smaller investment in land and equip
ment than ordinary grain farming or
dairying, and it pays better. There Ii
distinct tendency toward smaller
places, and the next couple of years
will see a great many more farmers
than there are at present many of
them being city people, who have turn
ed to the agricultural vocation.
Under modern business methods
there will be good financial returns
from ten and twenty acre farms, be-
sides which rural life will be greatly
improved, and the rush of country boys
and girls to town will be checked.
To make the little farm pay, to equal
ize the work and to get any enjoyment
out of country life there needs to be
a wide diversity of production, includ-
ing bush and tree fruits, vegetables
of various kinds, poultry and some live
stock. A place of twenty acres can
easily carry three or four cows, a
couple of dozen pigs, three brood
mares and a small flock of sheep, be-
sides raising few head of young cat
tie, either to keep up the dairy or to
sell for beef. A small farm so planned
will yield an income of $4,000 to $4,000
a year, according to the skill with
which it is managed. Truck farms Of
ten to twenty acres near all large cities
The Nezperce herald. (Nezperce, Idaho) 1900-1957, 1915-06-10

are paying at the rate Of $500 to $500
an acre. In many cases the owners are
city men.
| The average city man who is accus-
| toned to hustle for his living will be
| all right on a modern farm. He need
not work more than ten hours a day.
Perhaps as wise a stroke as he could
make at the outset would be to estab-
ish the ten hour day for himself and
his hired help as well as the members
of his family. Whenever consider the
farming subject one Of the first points
to come to mind Is the dislike enter
tanned by young people for the drudg-
cry pertaining to the dairy, the corn
field, the garden and agricultural labor
generally. Another thing which flashes
before me is the barren social life
which is all too common in the farm
ing districts. There Is not enough rec
reation. and there is not enough atten-
ton given to the ethical or cultural
side of the farm home. This accounts
in part for the great exodus from the
farming districts. The backward con-
dition Of many agricultural sections is
wholly due to the loss Of the young
men and women, who have rushed
away to the cities, hoping to have an
easier and happier life. The proper
place for the farmers sons and daugh-
ters, as a general proposition, Is In the
agricultural vocation, which they might
be able by education and progressive
ideas to broaden and brighten and
make more profitable.
Land ownership Is highly desirable
for any family of limited means. The
Importance of a home In the country,
with land enough to afford living In
come becomes more and more appar-
ent every year. Therefore, | say, buy
If you can and only rent when you
cannot buy. | repeat that there need
be no great fear of an ordinary debt In
the case of providing a nice farm home
for the family 1t will be matter Of
pride and satisfaction to work up to
an independent position as land own
er and farmer If good sense and In
dustry are applied the earnings from
the soil will be sufficient to maintain
the home in comfort and pay off any
iebt that has been necessary.
If 1t is to be small farm proposition |
get as close as possible to one Of the |
Dig markets. Places are to be found |
within two or three miles Of good |
suburban station in almost any section
If the country. If your taste runs to-
ward new locality In the west or
south there are plenty of fine opportu-
mites in states where land can be
bought at So to $50 an acre without
and S25 to S75 an acre
With buildings.
The advantage of holding a city DO
ition for the first year or two will
Iecide the matter for great many.
these people will take little farms
lose to town and In so doing they will
eep in touch with the comforts of life
s they have been used to them and
Nth business methods as they under
tand them.

Where Are Your War Sympathies.

"With whom do you sympathize in
the pending WARP" asks a correspond
ent. "We'll answer that" says the
Johnstown Democrat. with the
German, French, Belgian and Eng
lish boys who crowd the hospitals.
With the mothers who bore these
boys. With fathers who saw them
grow to manhood and loved them as
they grew. With the women who
were welded to these boys. With
the children they left when they
marched to the front. With the
poor peasant who struggles against
the press of war engendered poverty.
With those who in the cities cry out
for food. With men who fight for
fatherland, hating war in their
breasts. With the great artist like
Kreisler, who must turn their mar
velous melody producing fingers to
work destruction. With the people
who must live out their lives forever
blighted by the war. With the in
nocent whose fields have been tramp
led under foot by marching armies.
With all the host of those who under
the press of mistaken patriotism
offer up their lives. These are the
ones with whom we sympathize.

past week have been very we'll at
tended and will continue every eve
ming of this week and possibly part
of the coming week. The meetings
are increasing in interest and quite
a number have signified their in

of souls far above what some travel
