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 market
Is as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti-
tations have spent s1S0,000,000 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
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 1t. 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
the most systematic and profitable
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 overproduction of the
factory; We cannot build up mercan-
tile enterprises by the merchants load
ing their shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul.
ture by Cutting the market with q
surplus of products.

FREE PORTS
BUILDERS Of
COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRo-
PRlATIoNS.
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 tie
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. Ii
our government would only divert the
energy we have displayed In conquer.
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of the sea, foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the oceans
highways.
This article will be confined to q
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 $1,000
600 for improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise leyies
toll of approximately $50,o0O,000
annually in wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service Is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted of
the backs of the farmer of this ma
ton and this can be done by Congress
directing it's appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up
to a 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 a free port
and none can be more easily and eff
fectively secured.

They had never wholly loved each
other, but each had accepted the sit
uatiOn as the result of years of pro-
pinquity. Lately EtheTs letters had
been warmer in tone. Harry looked
forward to their marriage with quiet
satisfaction. A year or two in Lima
and then New York and a happy fU-
ture!
On the following morning the doc
tor came to Harry as the train was
preparing for the march into the
kills.
There's no hope" he said. Hes
slipping down hill. It would be no
use to stay.
Harry went into the sick mans
room. jim Sayres lay r2otionless
among the pillows; his face was
deathIy white and his thin hands al
most transparent. It was evident he
was sunk in the final stupoT.
One cannot stop to grieve over the
dying when life runs hot in the veins.
Harry gave the order for the march.
But just as the bearers were form
ing into line a file of natives appeared
along a forest path that led down
from the mountains. It was a small
party of bearers, proceeding toward
the camp. It would be necessary to
postpone the departure and welcome
the travellers, as etiquette prescribed.
The natives, gTunting, deposited
their loads in the clearing. Four,
bearing a hooded stretcher, came to
a halt and set down their burden.
Out stepped a white woman Ethel!
She threw herself into Harry's
arms.

Lima, Harry" she explained. "They
told me that you might be delayed
here for an indefinite time and did
not want to wait, Harry. And are you
actually starting?"

to come, for you would have missed

'In that tent. But I am afraid it is
all up with the poor chap. He is dy-
ing of jungle fever. His name is
Sayres-Jim Sayres."
The girl released herself from her
lovers embrace and, when she spoke
her voice was curiOusly restrained.
Let me see him, Harry. Perhaps
can do something for him"
"The doctor says there is no
hope" answered Harry. But already
Ethel was walking quickly toward
the tent. Harry waited. Some in
stinct of delicacy impelled him not
to follow her. He did not wish to be
a spectator of her last ministrations
to the dying man. Besides, he might
become conscious, the doctor had
said, and then his presence would be
embarrassing. Women understood
these situations instinctiVely.
But after a half hour he became
alarmed. Ethel was still in the tent
He went stoftly toward it. He heard
the sound of voices and stood outside,
not venturing to raise the flap.
And it was Sayres speaking.

cause l have seen your face again.
Ethel, how 1 have loved you all these
years.
And you, JIM" Harry heard her
answer, and the mans face turned to

But why did you become engaged
to-you have not told me his name,
Ethel but why did yOu?"
''You didn't write. 1 thought you
had forgotten me-"
81 had no right to write to yOU,"
said Sayres in a quiet voice, subdued
by weakness. 81 only hoped your love

Wedding Near Christmas.
Will Take Place At Home OF
Mrs. Gait And No Invita-
tiOns Will Be Issued.

Washington, Nov. 1.-The White House
today formally announced that President
Wilson and Mrs. Edith Boiling Gait will
be married "near the close of Decem-
ber." The following official announce
ment was made by Secretary Tumulty:
''In order to quiet speculation. Presi-
dent Wilson and Mrs. Norman Gait to-
day authorized the announcement that
their marriage will take place near the
close of December. Their plans are for
a very simple ceremony. It will be quiet
~ performed at Mrs. Cats residence.
No invitations will be issued, and it is
expected that the only guests will be the
members of the two families"
The limitation of the guests to the
members of the two families comes as q
disappointment, but no great surprise,
to Washington society. Since it was
definitely determined some time ago the
wedding would be at the home Of the
bride, it was realized the guest list
would of necessity have to be small.
The home of Mrs. Gait would scarcely
accommodate more than so persons.
1t is likely, however, that the wedding
will be followed by an elaborate recep-
ton at the White House.
