The Farm Flock Idea

Livestock is the basis of farm
fertility and should be kept on
every farm. vast quantity OF
grain ordinarily hauled to market
had best be fed to animals. Average
yield and net returns would both
be enhanced Sheep are easily
handled, fit admirably into the gen
eral scheme of things and produce
two crops year, practically vel
vet" to the owner.
Our average winter is neither ex-
tremely cold or long, which simpli-
flies the winter maintenance prob
lem and eXpedites the growth of
lambs in summer. On every farm
forage and feed are produced in
abundance at reasonable cost and
sheep act as scayengers to clean
up brush patches and take care of
summer fallow and other waste
material in lanes and fields
The range is unquestlonably be-
ing curtailed The United States
must look toward the farm for it's
main supply. early lambing has
come to stay. More feed must be
used in wintering. High prices
have come to a somewhat perma-
nent condition. Ewes worth $500
to $500 per head short time ago
are now costing $500 to $500
pei head
There is no better business for
the average farmer to engage in
than the keeping of rev sheep on
his fields. The fleece easily pays
for the cost of feed and care for
whole year. The product in lambs
becomes clear profit

The president says he has the
greatest respect for congress" Do
his acts prove itG
The Monroe Doctrine has been
swallowed hook, line and sinker,"
says Wilson, and adds. the Monroe
Doctrine is not needed" Possibly he
is right, providing the league of ma
tions would prove a perfect working
machine; II not, where would the
Monroe Doctrine be?
The democratic writer's statement
that the president has always been
right, hardly rings true. First, he
allowed himself to be elected on the
kept us out OF war" farce. Yet the
boys who went through Argonne For
est and other German strougholds
will admit that they had a little
scrap.
In 1914 he said-referring to the
world war-''it is a matter that does
not concern u.s." Was he right?
In 1914 Roosevelt said, keep out
of war by preparing now for tt"
Was he or Mr.. Wilson right? The
chances are that Il we had followed
Teddy's advice we would never have
gone to war, or: the Mexicaa fiasco
and cur spincless attitude ed the
Germany to really believe that I'VE
we're too proud to fight" or would
not, which amounted to the same
thing so far as the Boche were con-
cerned.
The president says the league is
intended to prevent any wars similar
to the last one, but adds that the
treaty is1a technical document that
is hard to read" and asks the peo-
pie, as he tours the United States,
to accept the interpretations of the
trainers of the treaty. Admitting
that the treaty is a technical docu-
ment," if the United States senate
cannot rightly interpret its meaning
now, before they accept it, how are
they going to know what its provi-
sions mean later on when a dispute
arises?
The Courier does not make these
statements in a veiled or open fight
against a league Of nations, but
merely to show that the president,
as we'll as congress, has often been
in the wrong.
SENATOR chamberlain mas just
made this statement: 81 never would
have supported the treaty without
the notifications that were made
regarding the Monroe Doctrine and
the provision for getting out OF the
league. There is much about it that
l do not like, but we must have a
league"
After all, is the human language
so defective and cumbersome that 1t
is impossible to draw up an agree
ment that can be plainly understood ?

WILSON AND THE LEAGUE

"AANO-N -h-ND 49, A~A<-hON
As the president wends his way
westward, working overtime deliver
ing speeches in favor of the league
of nations covenant, his coined
phrases are winning those who have
forgotten the assertions he made
during the past four years.
1t is probably a fact that the
great majority Of the American peo-
pie want to give the league of ma
tons fair trial, providing the Unit
ed States by so doing is not reQuir-
ed to relinquish her position 'as one
Of the great powers Of the earth by
giving Great Britain six votes TO her
one; is not obliged to become en-
tangled in endless European squab-
bles, and is not expected to forsake
the Monroe Doctrine.
The president is making state
ments that sound we'll" yet do not
ring true with the proposed treaty.
The democrats, claiming that the
president is right and those SO SEN
ators who signed the round robin are
wrong, are doing their best to make
a party issue Of the league. They,
together with the president, accuse
the republican senators with distort-
ing the facts and garbling the issue;
then back come the republicans and
say il is the president and other
democrats who are doing the "garb-
ling"
An Eastern writer-a democrat
says If we want the truth, wait for
the president to speak; that regard
less Of criticism, his theories have
stood the test of time, proving that
he was right; that congress has done
nothing but "embarass'' him and try
to tear down. But here are some Of
the presidents statements:
When the treaty is accepted, the
boys in khaki will never have to
cross the ocean again" Yet. the
covenant provides specifically for
that very thing.
In October, 1918, Wilson asked
the people to return democratic
congress, saying that he would ac-
cept their Judgment without cavil. -
Yet did he? He ignored congress
as If it had not existed and left for
Paris with a coterie OF rubber
stamps. without giving the senate an
mixing OF what he had in mind or
intended to do. And when he re-
turned home months later. he still
ignored that body until they showed
him that they could get along very
will without him; then he came forth
with statement that he was ready
10 tell everything" But again ne
broke his word and baked when
asked to produce a record of the
business transacted at Paris.
He also said, speaking Of the
league; Don't let men tear it
down. A catchy phrase. Almost,
if not quite, inferring that those who
DO not favor his particular brand OF
league are reactionaries, verglng on
the disloyal, and men dangerous to
the welfare Of the United States.
Vet he would have been as much
justified in making this kind of a
statement; Don't let men return a
repub blican congress"

~HE Courier-Reporter sin
~ cerely hopes that Kenne-
wick farmer continues to buy
more land. Not that we are in
favor of increasing the size of
farm units and limiting the real
ty holdings to fewer owners, but
because so long as the local
farmer buys it is a pretty safe
bet that real estate bears no in
flated value. The real estate
agent may work himself up to
a very frenzy of enthusiasm and
lose himself in a top-heavy opti-
mism of his own creating but the
farmer who has been going up
against the very real game of
farm life for the past eight

ed that no I. w. w. would be en-
'ployed in any of their camps.
The Potlatch Lumber company
has gone one step further and
declared that hereafter no man
of foreign birth would be carried
on their payroll unless he were
an American citizen or had de-
clared his intention of becom-
ing a citizen.
This is but a symptom that the
large employers Of labor in the
country are waking up to the
fact that the time has come for
them to clean house, and to
clean house of conditions
for which they are largely re-
sponsible. The foreign labor is
here because in the past they
have catered to foreign labor
little knowing or caring about
the status of citizenship. But
now the time has come when
they are face to face with the
fact that the making of Ameri-
can citizens is just as essential
to the continued success of their
business as is the making OF
lumber jacks.
The question naturally arises:
"But how good a citizen will be-
come the foreigner who is forced
to become a declarant to get a
job?" The answer lies largely
with those employ ers of labor
who put into effect the rule of
Americans only" The inaugu-
ration of the policy carries with
it the responsibility of giving
the foreign-born the facilities
for becoming in fact an Ameri-
can citizen. He must be given
time and opportunity for study.
| If he cannot read or write he
must be taught to read and
write. He must be taught that
American citizenship means
more than the mere getting OF
a job. The policy should be one
of persuasion rather than OF
coercion. The endeavor should
be to bring the man to want to
become a citizen, not that he
might be lumberjack, but that
he might exercise the rights and
enjoy the privileges of that
citizenship, bring him to under
stand and to appreciate the
meaning of American institu-
tions and American ideals.
