or cattle to the market unless
we have county agent. - y
Now | have seen more than a
dozen car loads of cattle and
some hogs and sheep that has
been shipped out of this part of
the'county this fall. OF course
now If we have an agent Mr..
SeVerson and a great many
others would have said it is be-
cause we had an agent.
Now | would like to ask Mr..
Severson why didn't he stay in
Lane county if the agent would
nave made him rich.
Mr.. Severson also said that if
Mr.. Clark had had an agent he
would not have had to 90 to
Uncle Sam for a job.
Now | can remember Just but
a few years ago that Mr.. Sever
son was out for a job from Uncle
Sam himself.
Mr.. Severson also said he
would like to know if Mr.. Tan
gen is getting all out of his land
that there is to be had out side
OF fern. think which is a shore
thing that am but know how to
get a little more if we only had
a market.
So when my crop is in full
bloom next summer | would
gladly welcome Mr.. Severson
and his friend Web to come out
and see for there self.
Mr.. Severson also said If we
had an agent to show us how to
raise more and better crops we
would be more able to pay orr
taxes but he didn't stop to think
that we can not sell half we
raise now.
Web seems to think experience
is the dearest.
While it distresses me to take
issue with Web l firmly believe
he is mistaken.
But where does Il agricultur.
ist get his knowledge from if he
doesn't get it from experience.
Web even states that the pres
ent appropriation are not large
as they can be until the farmers
make more money but he didn't
state nothing about the present
appropriation being not large
enough to get an agent with. He
talks as though the agent will
make the roads and money while
the farmers are waiting.
Mr.. Severson and Web also
talks as though the farmers will
get some thing out of nothing

failed to give him { little credi;

If Mr.. Severson Web and such
partys are determined to emplo,
a county agent why not employ
lone to operate a few industries
in the county an at the count,
expense such as paper mills log.
ging camps saw mills and a few
lumber carrying boats which
would bring a payroll and also
be a money making model fol-
the county.
1t seems to me If Mr.. Sever
son Web and such partys if they
would boost for these affairs
that would be Of more benefit
to the county than a county ag-
riculturist they would deserve
a little credit.

Dollars and Patriotism.

The offer from the Merchants Associa-
ton TO Governor Whitman of the coopera-
ton of its members in any way possible
to facilitate the mobilization of the militia
is fine and generous instance Of the pub
lie spirit of this organization. 1t was a
logical extension Of the position already
taken by the association in urging its
members and all other employers Of ma
tional guardsmen to hold open the places
Of the guardsmen and to continue their
pay during absence on military duty.
That. in turn, was the logical outcome of
the policy Of this organization for many
months, that employers should 90 every
thing within their power to encourage
service in the National Guard and should
reward enlistment Of employees rather than
penalize it, as some had been doing.
1t is highly gratifying to find the rep
.resentative business men Of this and Of
other cities alive to the fact that if war
comes its burdens should not fall entirely
on those who go TO the front and on their
families. The men in the ranks will do
their part all the more gladly for know
ing that while the business of the country
is going on it is taking care Of the families
of those who have answered the call to
arms. There has been a great deal Of talk
lately of Americans as a race Of money
grubbers, despite the enormous sums which
this country has furnished for the relief
Of sufferers from the European war. The
militiamen whose employers divide profits
with them TO the extent Of caring for their
families won't be willing to believe that
the potent symbol in the United States is
the dollar sign rather than the flag.

P.ussian and Saxon.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: y. L., whose letter appears in The
Tribune to-day under the caption THE Ger
man Taint," refers to present-day SaXons as
the most decent Of the Germanic stock. His
explanatory remark, ASK our soldiers, who
have met them ali. makes it clear that y. L.,
who is an Englishman, does not a!lude to
Anglo-Saxons, but 20 regiments from SaNony
He argues that Britishers and Saxonians are
temperamentaily alike, whereas the horrid
Teuton. with his heaven-sent cultural mis-
sion. is product peculiarly Prussian.
II y. L. were conversant with the rudi-
ments of Germanc race questions, he would
know that Saxon and SaXonian widely dlfer
ethuologically as well as lnguistically. The
Saxonian dialect, which has been the official
and literary language OF Germany ever since
Luther a Saxonian himself, translated the
Bible, is a blend between Anglo-SaXon, or
rather Old Saxon (niederdeutsch), and Ger
man (hcchdeutschJ. Kultur, which y. l..
abominates, has been largely matured b. the
decent Saxonians
There are three great speech groups IN
Europe Romance, Teutonic and Lithu-Slav.
The Prussians spoke a kind of Lithuanian
until few hundred years ago, when they
adopted German speech and manners. Prus-
sia and Russia-fend and friend seen by
X. L.-are knit together, not only by out
ward rhyme. but by internal harmony. Russia
tries hard to follow in the footsteps Of Prus-
sian Kultur, though she dares not own it, not
even TO herself.
