Farmer Votes Wet, Prays Wet

Never expect to find a farmer
satisfied, he doesn't exist" said
Ed Howe. His remark was sup
posed to be sarcastic. 1t shows
lack of appreciation of the men
who battle the elements in the
production of the worlds food.
Howe is a newspaper man and
makes his living by feature stuff
that startles the crowd.
Farmers hereabouts two months
ago were desperate for clear
weather. Crops could not be till
ed, hay and wheat were spelling.
The constant rains caused loss of
money. Now the drouth begins to
be serious. Early corn, just at
this time in the making, needs
rain. The local crop depends
much on weather conditions dur
ing the next week or so. Again
but little of the fall ploughing is
done and impossible to continue
under present conditions. Late
potatoes need rain badly as wei
as all the late truck.
So just now it is difficult to fine
a satisfied farmer-but no profes
sion has the bump of hope as tn
old "Agricola" (Latin for tn
Worlds prod Ger, sometime
known in small towns as hayseed.

THE 9-HOUR LAW.-The 8-hour
law is ethical and humane. It recog-
nizes the right of human beings to
live and work in decent and COM
Portable conditions.
It is wrong in that it seeks to rem
edy bad conditions without removing
the cause. Hence it will ultimately
fail. But that is not saying it should
not be done. We find out the right
and the wrong way by trying to do
something. If one way fails we try
another. .f.
Long hours, declining wages, pow
erty and crime exist because rent,
the natural source of public Teve-
nue., goes into private pockets and
speculative rent advances faster
than the capacity Of men to earn and
pay. Speculative rent will take in
creased toll from labor as the capac-
ity of men to produce wealth in
creases. No legislation that does not
abolish speculative rent and take
normal rent for public purposes can
benefit, permanently, labor. The adj
vance of land values will always out
run and discount the benefits Of civ
Tization and the increased power Of

MORE ABOUT BUGSs-To Allen
Stevens query about bugs (bed and
otherwise) being an earthly neces-
sity and deserving of protection in
stead of determination l must say a
few words. AS to his references to
the buggishness of US humans, he is
merely coTrobOrating George Ber-
nard Shaw, who recently stated: ct
is unnecessary to urge that there
are feeble-minded people in the
world. The late war has just, brought
out the fact that there are hardly
any, other people"
However, to revert to the genuine
bugs, it is a popular assumption with
lot of our human bugs that nature
put everything on earth for pur-
pose. But did nature create every
thing that is on the earth? 1 am
afraid it did not, and believe that
bugs and vernin, like disease, are
the product Of unnatural conditions
and causes. Lice, the ScOurge OF the
present European war, are created
from wearing dirty clothing (cloth-
ing is unnaturaD. Mosquitoes the
worst enemies of civilized man, are
created in pools of stagnant, poison
out water. Bedbugs, the nemesis of
pleasant, dreams, seem to breed in
dark, dirty crevices of decaying
wood.
So it is easily seen that the condi-
lions that produce these insects are
very unnatural and could never have
been reckoned with by nature.
Therefore, they are undesirable
aliens that should be Immediately
executed, and my advice is to secure
