LABOR IS GREATEST FACTOR
Much Land Permitted to Go Unculti.
waited Because Of Use Of Four
Horse Power Machinery.

Land is not the greatest factor of
cost in crop production, according to
the Nebraska Agricultural college. La
Dor ordinarily costs more than. the
land, and the more extensive the type
of farming the greater the labor cost
is. compared with the land cost. The
farmer is frequently criticized for
wasting land because he allows the
corners and other small patches of a
few yards to 60 uncultivated. One
reason for this so-called waste is the
use Of four-horse machinery.
The farmer. however. can better af.
ford to lose the use of a little land
than to use smaller machines. It is
OF more importance to employ man.
horse. and machine labor efficiently
than to till each square foot of land.
The tillage Of odd corners may often
De avoided by the sowing of a grass
plot.

Importance Of Thrift.

The present year marks the hun
dredth anniversary of savings banks
in the United States. The Philadel.
phia Savings Fund society came into
being in 1916. New York was three
years late in catching step with the
Quaker city. While the last decade
shows q remarkable increase in saw
ings deposits, America is far behind
some European countries in the prac-
tice of thrift. Only II per cent Of our
population is counted among the saw
ers, whereas France numbers 34.6 per
cent, or more than one-third Of its
people. in the class who lay by. The
importance Of that fact is seen in the
financial stability of France under the

LITTLE BUT A MEMORY
FAMOUS BATTLEsHiP OREGON
HAS HAD ITS DAY.
Seventeen Years Ago She Was Prob
ably the Most Famous Vessel
Afioat-Now 10 Relegated to
Minor Position.

Seventeen years ago the name OF
the Oregon was on the lips of every
American. 1t had rounded the Horn
on a record-breaking voyage Of $4,000
miles and then won additional renown
in the battle of Santiago bay. The
Oregon was the pride of Uncle Sam
the queen of the seas. For years, how
ever. it has been out of date. Officially
it has been rated as a second-class ves-
sci; by the more flippant as junk.
Now the navy department has got rid
of it by presenting it to the state of
California for use by its naval militia.
So runs the world away--for battle
ships as well as for men. observes the
Sioux City Journal.
Who that recalls the war with Spain
will ever forget the Oregon? Foresee-
ing a break with Spain, Washington
ordered it to sail from Mare Island
navy yard at San Francisco to Key
West. The long distance run proved
to be q most spectacular undertaking.
War was declared while the Oregon
was on its way, and fears for its safe
ty were entertained until 1t hove in
sight. reports having been set afloat
that Spain had sent out q feet to in
tercept it. The long trip was remark
able for the fact that the battleship
stopped nowhere except for coal and
was not delayed an hour by any break.
down in its machinery. Capt. Charles
Edgar Clark was in command, and his
name became almost as famous as
that Of the Oregon. He is one Of the
few of those who took leading roles
in the Spanish-American war who are
still alive.
Nor did the Oregon rest on its
laurels after 1t had steamed into Key
West late in May, 1898. 1t had been
brought from the Pacific to the Allan
tic for business. and that business was
to fight. 1t proceeded at once to San
tiago and in the battle Of July 3 with
Admiral Cervera's fleet was in the
thick of the trouble from the first to
last. To the Oregon belongs credit
for forcing the surrender of the Viz
caya and the Christobal Colon and
possibly for saving the Brooklyn. the
flagship Of Commodore Schley.
Yet today this one time bulldog of
the navy is not considered of enough
account in the national armament to
be kept In the service! So many
changes have come about in the max.
ing of battleships the once wonderful
Oregon is now fit subject for the
scrap heap. 1t was q great vessel in
its day, and around it cluster hal
lowed memories, but more than that
cannot be said for it.
Let anyone who has q notion that
the United States navy has not been
growing in the last twenty years com.
pare a list of the vessels which then
made up our defense at sea with list
of the vessels of 1915. Where then
the Iowa, the Indiana and others stood
proudly at the head of the procession
now they humbly fall in far behind the
Arizona, the Pennsylvania and others
Of later make and more generous pro-
portions. Yet the Arizona's day and
the Pennsylvania day also will come
as has come that of the Oregon. and
as came that of the Monitor and that
of Old Ironsides.

MEANS MONEY FOR FARMERS
More Attention Should Be Given to the
Question Of Marketing Than Of
lnereasing Yields.

Officials of the department of agri-
culture are now of the opinion that
more attention should be given by
them to the question of marketing.
than to that of increasing crop yields.
says Wisconsin Agriculturist
Conditions today on the farm are
such that both producers and consum-
ers feel there is something radically
wrong with the business of marketing
farm products.
Higher land values. higher paid Ia
Dor. the expense of fertilization. Of
fighting diseases, insect and fungous
pests. together with decreased yields
in some cases have emphasized the
needs Of q radical change in business
methods.
Some claim that land Is not being
properly farmed and that what is need
ed Is to make the land produce more
to the acre. But doubling of pro-
duction will not necessarily greatly
improve the conditions of the farmer
or relieve the burden of prices to the
consumer.
Officials of the office of markets.
say that the largest apple crop. the
largest corn crop. and the largest cot
ton crop in the history of the nation
has yielded the producers of these
crops a less amount of profit than
has been obtained in certain years of
less production, and 1t is also known
that in these years of enormous crops
the prices paid by consumers in some
sections have not reflected In the
proper degree. the low prices paid to
the farmer.
The American manufacturer Is sue
cessful because he gives as much, II
not more, attention to the question
of distribution as to that of produc-
ton; but where would he land II his
sole thought be on production and
none on distribution or selling? The
farmer Of today is in a similar posi-
tion to that Of q manufacturer, but
when the manner of selling his prod
ucts is observed, the conclusion is
formed that his marketing methods
consist rather of dumping" than of
marketing.
The government officials say that
some men attribute marketing difficult
ties to the presence of 80 many spec
ulators and middlemen, but that it
must be remembered that these agents
have come into existence to perform
services that the farmer fails to per
form for himself
II the farmer does not arrange to
finance his business, he must pay
others to do it. If he cannot store
his crops and hold them until the mar
kets are ready to use them, he calls
into existence a class of spectators
who demand and receive a liberal
price for taking the chance of per-
forming this service. All of these
agents or middlemen must be paid,
and most Of them are in a position to
collect their charges whether or not
the consignor realizes anything at all.
The government officials conclusion
in reference to the middlemen may be
more or less true to the extent that II
farmers cannot sell their own crops,
the middleman becomes a necessity.
However, he is somewhat of a para
site; a man who produces nothing.
but lives on the profits of the pro-
ducer and consumer. The question is:
how to eliminate this middleman who
often wakes fat at the expense of the
farmer?
