READY TO ASSIST THE FARMERS.

The letter addressed to the farmers Of
Cameron county by our county farm
demonstration, Mr.. Lindsay Waters Of
Harrington, notifies our farm friends hat
Mr.. Waters is "on the Job" ready TO do
his part in assisting them IN any way pos
sible. There are doubtless various prob
lens confronting the farmers of the Magic
Valley which Mr.. Lindsay could assist them
in solving. Many of our farmers have
come here from distant states. and are un-
familiar with conditions which should
govern the planting, cultivatIng and har-
vesting of crops here. With different soil
and climate, with irrigation a an aid, in
stead of depending solely upon ram, when
perhaps 'back North" they never were used
to farming by means of irrigation, IT Is TO
be expected hat there will be problems for
the new farmers in oar midst. 1t l. To as
sist these that the county farm demonstra-
tors are maintained.
Mr.. Waters has announced his willing
ness to serve amy farmers in tins county
requiring instruction IN regard 10 time Of
planting various crops, methods of cult
waiting, etc. lie makes a suggestion which
should be adopted by the farmers, To the
effect that he would be able 10 DO much
more for them if they would meet with him
and discuss farm matters. Such meetings
must be beneficial To every farmer partici-
pating In them. We should all remember
that there is always somebody else who
knows more than we do about almost any
subject. And perhaps we may know more
about some subjects than other people. So.
by n mutual exchange of ideas and rela-
tion of experience, the farmers Of any com
munity might add considerably To the gen
eral knowledge Of farming matters and
thus promote the success of every farmer
in the community.
Magic Valley farmers have much finer
material TO work with than farmers almost
anywhere else, and perhaps by means OF
such lifts a our county farm demonstrate
can give them, they may succeed a great
deal better than farmers IN other sections.
All should be anxious 10 learn everything
that can assist them in achieving success.
and all should gladly avail themselves Of
Mr.. Waters offer of assistance.

THE BORDER SITUATION.
Austin Statesman.)

tAu~tln StateSman.l
Whatever attitude our government
may take concerning the Mexican situa-
tion-we believe they will be impressed
with the fact that better border protec-
ton should be aiforded-the fact re
mains that with the unsettled conditions
in Mexico, with many of the leaders dis
inclined 10 regard the efforts of the Uni
ted States 10 restore order. il is the
plain duty of our government to concen-
trate aS many Federal Troops az expe
dent along the Mexican border.
This does not apply to the Texas Dor
der alone. PROFESSIONALLY conditions
there are bad. but there is absolutely
nothing 10 prevent similar conditions
from arising along the borders Of Ari-
IONA. New Mexico and California.
h United States owes Ene plain
duty 10 its people. 1t must protect them
from a foreign foe. Al this time We
nave no absolutely declared foreign foe
and vet we find efforts 10 stir up some
Of the Mexican people against us. Even
though they may not respond to the
call. We should be- on the alert and take
no chances.
Al best conditions in Mexico are of
an uncertain character. 1t is impossible
10 tell today what circumstances NAV
prevail there tomorrow. The people of
MeXs"0 know not their own will. The
friendly intentions of our Government
they do not seem to appreciate They
are 4 people easily miSlcd by the ambi-
tiouS ones. They might become unnec.
essarily %preiudiced against our own PEG
pie simply because they do not clearly
understand their own plight.
Such an attitude on their part we
should he protected against. We are 1T
peace with the world. We should guar
antee To our citizens along a possible I'M
friendly border line all possible protec.
ton. The generous distribution of
troops along the border of Mexico af.
lords the big remedy for every State
concerned. The duty is one that the
Federal government owes the States.
not one the States owe 10 the Federal
Government. This fact we believe the
Wal Department will recognize with =
view TO giving the people of Texas. as
well as the people of other states. the
protection they are entitled TO bv all
proprieties.
