time that I took in any chickens l
was told that could not sell them
things were rotten-Olympia was the
rottenest hole on the continent, and
so on, but I sold 400 chickens in
Olympia this season and was only
sorry that did not have as many
more to sell.
A few words more about the Oft
repeated statement that Olympia is
no market, that farmers cannot sell
what they raise there. Stand any
day on any of the streets leading out
of Olympia and count the farmers
who will go by with loads of hay,
wheat, corn and all kinds of feed
they have bought in town and all of
which the business men have import
ed to supply their needs and none of
which they could buy from the farm
ers of Thurston county, because they
don't raise it. If they did they would
not be buying it, and if they raised
what they consumed of these articles,
farming might not be such a bad
business.
Asks a Few Questions.
What kinds of crops are farmers
supposed to raise, anyway? Are not
wheat, oats, rye, and all other grains
legitimate crops? And hay, too?
When have the farmers of this coun-
ty ever raised enough of any Of the
above to supply the home market?
What do they raise that cannot be
sold in Olympia? Perhaps a few
knotty specimens of some kind of
fruit thrown loosely into a weather.

Someone said not long ago, does it
pay to write items for a ountry
newspaper? Yes, it pays-not in dol
lars and cents, but they write for
their own pleasure and satisfaction.
Some of them find pleasure in COM
position and practice, especially the
young people; they also find pleas
ure in the thought that they are in
some degree contributing to the en-
tertainment and information of 9TH
ers. 1t is true that writer's for city
papers poke fun at the simple little
items sent in by country correspond
ents, but for all that, those para
graphs are the first items read by the
people of their respective neighbor-
hoods when the country weekly comes
to hand. 1t pays in many ways-it
pays in the pleasant surprise which
comes to the writer when he learns
that his paragraphs are read by this
or that friend, perhaps a hundred
miles away; it pays when he learns
with what interest his most careless
lines are received, although at the
same time his most stupid paragraphs
only excite passing notice; it pays
when it starts people to thinking; it
pays when his most innocent and
wholly impersonal paragraph stirs
up hornets nest-and the surprise
is even greater though not so pleas
ant.

streets. And II products cannot be
sold in the Olympia market. are we
not very favorably situated, with
both water and rail communications
with the large markets of the Sound?
How do farmers get along who live
100 miles and more from any mar
ket. and have no local market at all?
These are some of the questions
that suggest themselves to my mind
when I read the pessimistic letters
which have been appearing so regu-
larly Of late.
In my opinion the Potato club is
a move in the right direction. Any
thing that tends to improve methods
Of production and marketing is, 1
think, to be commended. Look at
what has been done by some commu-
mites in the grading and selling of
eggs, much more could be accom-
plished with such an article as pota-
toes.
To set aside certain amount of
money for the purpose of buying
powder and selling 1t at cost to farm
ers is most excellent suggestion.
But, to use their own argument, what
is going to be done with the products
grown on the new land which will be
brought into cultivation? If, as pro-
posed, this amount is increased year
by year, in 20 years the producing
capacity of Thurston county will
probably be doubled. How are we
going to care for the people who will
be raising all this stuff? Not being
able to sell it, they, no doubt, will
be starving to death.
