NONPARTISAN LEAGUE
MISSIONARIES

1t is apparent that the North Dako-
Ia Nonpartisan League Is doing some
missionary work in western safes.
DIR. G. II. Chapman. socialistic
writer on Portland dailies. recently

Idaho.
He has taken the editorship of the
leading Nonpartisan paper In that
etate and will also lecture for the
cause.
The Portland Journal has put
man from the San Francisco Bulletin
in charge of its state farm market

He has had training along social

movements to organize the farmer.
II. c. Cutting has been sent TO
North Dakota to exploit the Nonpar-

Common Sense About
Mexico

The United States has been re-
ceiving some mighty fine tomatoes
raised by Mexican peon labor before
American tomatores were ripe.
Mexican peon labor is largely en-
ployed in our country to make the
beet sugar crops. TO work In mines
and shelters and ore crushers.
over half million Mexican labor
ers are employed on railroads and
ranches and in industries OF our
country and no harm is done.
We read great deal about the
Mexican poems being dispossessed Of
their homes through great grants OF
lands to Americans and others.
These grants have been developed
by oil companies. mining and smeit-
ing companies, live stock and cotton
and rubber plantations.
The Mexican peon has been given
employment in his own country by
American capital and who can hon
estly say any great harm was done!
Eastern newspapers keep sentimen
,t!iizing about the Mexican peon be-
ing made hom Jess by American cor
porations and exploited by capital.
! II two blades of grass were made
to grow for one. II steady work were
given in place Of none. IL dollars
were created out of dormant resour-
ces, who has been harmed?
F., II people that prefer cock fight
ing, bull fights. gambling and BAN
ditting to honest industry are grad.
uaily taught habits Of industry and
conyered into wage earners, they are
on the high road to becoming useful
self supporting citizens.
THAT is the commonsense OF all the
socialistic talk about exploiting Mex
leo with American capital.

THE POLICY OF UNCER-
TAINTY

J. r. Bowles, president of the
Northwest Steel company Of Portland
Oregon, says: Cancellation Of gov
eminent contracts with autocratic
rules making 1t impossible for us to
obtain foreign contracts" will bring
disaster to the ship industry of the
entire coast.
Bureaus and departments at Wash
ington from Secretary Redfield down
are talking reconstruction and neces-
sity OF keeping men employed, etc.
Other Washington bureaus and
boards seem to be doing everything
possible to discourage industry, with
regulation, taxation, etc.
So far as the pubic is advised in
regard to shipbuilding, no provision
is made to reemploy the tens Of thou
sands of men who will be thrown on
the labor market in competition with
the returning soldiers.
1t would be well to decide some-
thing definitely pretty soon as to
whether the government is or is not
going to build ships, so the ship
building industry will know where it
stands and be able to prepare accord

United States Tire

Few articles Of commerce offer so
many opportunities for covering up
poor quality and faulty construction
90 do automobile tires. A good look
ing outside covering may be only a
shell within which are hidden shod-
dy materials and bungiing workman

The United States Tire company
cites this fact as reason why motor
lists who want good service from
their tires are buying in enormously
increasing quantities the good tires
made by the company whose steady
devotion to quality has made II the
largest rubber company in the world.
United States tires are made from
the best materials and by the best

THE SOCIAL PROBLEMS

The price of potatoes and the
scarcity of houses is worrying the
people of Great Britain more than
the League of Nations.
High cost OF agricultural labor
means high prices for farm products
and that spells high cost of living.
To merely demand high wages and
shorter hours. with no provision for
Increased production solves nothing.
Higher wages and shorter hours
draws labor away from the country
and contest It in the city and in
creases the trouble.
Higher prices for farm products
with constantly diminishing sup
ply of farm labor means constantly
higher cost of living.
II there is to be reduction in
the high cost Of neoessaries of life
there must be cheaper production on
the farm.
II there are to be cheaper houses
or more houses at any price. the wag-
os OF building trades must be inyIt-
ing TO those who would build.

FIRE LOSSES ARE EN-
ORMOUS s,
- ewaa& VI


Fire losses take heavy toll from
industries every year.
1t is a mistaken idea to think
that insurance companies pay these
losses. The.people pay. The insur-
ance companies act merely as dis
tributor = or clearing house. collect
premiums on policies and disburss
these premiums for fire losses and
operating expenses. The lower fire
losses can be brought. the lower
premiums can be charged. The I'm
surance companies prevents the loss
falling on an individual or industry
as a crushing financial burden.
Take the timber industry alone.
Figures presented at the annual
injecting of the Western Forestry
Conservation association at Portland
Oregon, show nearly two billion feet
|of standing timber killed IN 1915
the forest fire season since 1910. OF
which more than nine hundred mil
lion feet is beyond salvage. This
entailed loss Of $s.60o.ooo to Pa
|cific coast states and is only one
item Of fire waste.
Z. T. Allen OF the association In
the interest Of fire protective work
is urging increase in federal appro-
priation under Weeks law from
100000 to 100000 as the $780,
900 is no longer sufficient to cover
the additional states which have
qualified under the act.
The dry season is coming on and
every person should make It point
TO help cut down our terrible fire
wastage.

Care of Horses
In Hot Weather

The following suggestions for the
care of horses in hot weather are Of
fered by the freight transportation
department of the Packard Motor
Car company:
Load lightly and drive slowly.
Stop in the shade if possible,
3.-Water your horse as often as
possible. SO long as i4orse is work
ing, water in small quantities will not
hurt him. But let him drink only
few swallows if he is going to stand
still. Do not fail to water him at
night after he has eaten his hay.
4.-When he comes in after work,
sponge off the harness marks and
sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth
and the dock. Wash his feet, but
not his legs.
5.-If the thermometer is rs de-
grees or higher, wipe him all over
with a damp sponge. Use vinegar
water if possible. Do not turn the
hose on him.
Saturday night give a bran
mash, lukewarm, and add a table
spoon of saltpetre.
do not use horse-hat unless
it is canopy top hat. The ordinary
bell-shaped hat does more harm than
good.
8.-A sponge on top of the head, or
even a cloth, is good if kept wet.
If dry it is worse than nothing.
eff the horse is overcome by
heat, get him into the shade, remove
all harness and bride, wash out his
mouth, sponge him all over, shower
his legs, and give him two ounces of
aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two
ounces of sweet spirits of nitre in a
pint of water; or give him a pint of
warm coffee. Cool his head at once
using cold water, or if necessary
chopped ice, wrapped in cloth.
1O.-If the horse is off his feed
try him with two quarts of oats
mixed with bran and little water
and add little salt or sugar. Or
give him oatmeal cruel or barley
water to drink.
11.-Watch your horse. If he stops
sweating suddenly or if he breathes
short and quick, or if his ears droop
or if he stands with his legs braced
,idewise, he is in danger of a heat
Or sun stroke and needs attention
1t once.
12.-If it is so hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night, tie him
outside with bedding under him. I'm,
'ess he ,cools off at night he cannot
we'll stand the next days heat.

A TOAST TO HAPPINESS

To happiness raise my glass,
The goal of every human,
The hope of every clan and class,
And every man and woman.
The day dreams of the urchin there,
The sweet theme of the maiden's
prayer,
The strong mans one ambition,
The sacred prize of mothers sweet,
The tramp of soldiers on the street
Have all the self same mission.
Life here is nothing more nor less
Than just quest for happiness.
Some seek it on the mountain top,
And some within a mine;
The widow in her notion shop
Expects its sun to shine.
The tramp that seeks new roads to
fare,
Is one with King and millionaire
In this that each is cropping
On different roads in different ways,
to come to glad contented days,
And shares che common hoping.
The sound of martial fife and drum
Is born of happiness to come.
Yet happiness is always here
Had we the eyes to see it;
No breast but holds fund of cheer
Had man the will to free it.
IT'S there upon the mountain top,
Or in the widows notion shop,
'Tis found in homes of sorrow,
IT'S woven in the memories
OF happier brighter days than these,
The gift, not tomorrow
But of today, and in our tears
Some touch of happiness appears.
IT'S not a Joy that's born of wealth
The poor man may possess it.
IT'S not alone the prize of health;
No sickness can repress it.
IT'S not the end of mortal strife,
The sunset of the day of life,
Or but the old should find it;
It is the bond twixt God and man,
The touch divine in all we plan,
And has the soul behind it.
And so this toast to happiness,
The seed Of which we all possess.
