COST OF FARM PRODUCTION
Is VITAL THING
(By o. 8 Rayner.)

Some people worry a good deal about
the low yields per acre in this country
compared with certain European coun-
tries. Again the argument is offered
that high yields mean low prices to the
farmer, which is generally true. Yet
this is no reason why any individual
farmer should go slow on production
on his own farm. The thing for each
farmer to drive for is maximum pro-
duction at the least possible cost.
It often happens that two men will
put about the same amount of work On
their fields and one may get a yield Of
20 bushels and the other get yield of
40 bushels. The difference may be due
to better seed, or a more efficient
cropping system. But any way when
the cost of production per acre is about
the same on the two farms and one
gets twice the yield of the other, there

is big difference in cost per bushel.
This is an illustration of economical
production, and it seems to have its
effect upon income.
ty showed that those who got tho
poorer yields had an average income Of
1850, compared with 1870 for the men
with average yields and those with
yields better than the average got
$s43.
Another illustration of efficient pro-
duction is found in returns from live
stock. It is certainly poor policy to
put 800 worth of feed into stock and
get only $50 returns. Yet this often
happens. 1t may be due to q drop in
prices which cannot be foretold, but on
the other hand it may be due to poor
quality of stock or failure to feed
properly balanced and efficient rations.
Records from farms show that in one
community some men got only $R5
while others got as high as $500 re-
turns for each 800 worth of feed fed
the stock. And the incomes Of these
men were almost in the same proper
ton.
The quality of crops, and livestock
produced has lot to do with the eff
cheney of production and this naturally
reflects on the farmers income.

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1919-04-25
WHY FESTIVE?

The American Federation of Labor
sends out the report that labor is
"restive," and gives three reasons for
the unrest-the cost of living which
has gone "higher in proportion to the
increase of wages" prohibition with
out the consent of the voters; unem-
ployment and the tendency of cap
ital to reduce wages to the pre-war
standards and maintain war prices of
necessities"
Nothing is said in this report about
the work of the agitators to whom the
unrest in labor's ranks is due, in the
main. None of the three reasons APP
plies to the industrial unrest this COM
munity experienced, the climax of
WHICH was the general strike.
1t is perhaps more popular with or
ganized labor for labor leaders to
make Capitalism" the goat, but it
would be much more authentic to
lay large share of the blame for
industrial unrest where it belongs
on the shoulders of the radicals.

TOURISTS COMING WEST

Railways of the United States and
Canada are beginning the expenditure
of hundreds of thousands of dollars to
stimulate tourist travel this summer
and a good portion of it will be spent
in advertising the Pacific northwest,
according to Herbert Cuthbert, secre-
tary of the Pacific Northwest Tourist
Association, who has returned to Sc
attic, after a month spent in eastern
cities of the United States and Canada.
Mr.. Cuthbert conferred with the
heads of passenger departments of the
United States Railway Administra-
ton in Chicago, Washington and NeY
York, and with Canadian railway Of
ficials in Montreal and Winnipeg ar
ranging for cooperation between the
railway publicity campaign and the
campaign of the Pacific Northwest
Tourist association, which will eXpend
the $125, 900 appropriated by Oregon,
Washington and British Columbia for
tourist advertising for two year
period, following the work done during
the past two years.
"The United States railway admin
istration has shown their approval of
the methods of the Pacific Northwest
Tourist association by following our
lead in advertising the Pacific north
west as a whole rather than adver-
Using states and localities. Their ad
vertising, which involves the eXpendi-
ture of hundreds of thousands, begins
in the magazines in April and wide
spread newspaper advertising will fol-
low later The Canadian railways will
also spend much money advertising
the Pacific northwest and Alaska, and
their tourist rates, | am told, are the
same to Washington and Oregon
points as to Vancouver" says Mr.
Cuthbert.
'Tourist travel to the Pacific north
west will be especially heavy this sum-
mer and hotels and resorts should be
prepared to take proper care of them.
The people generally should be pre-
pared for the heavy business which
tourist travel brings and to impress
on tourists the natural advantages, re-
sources and opportunities in this sec
ton, so that the tourists may become
investors and residents to help develop
the Pacific northwest"

SALMON PROPAGATION A NE,
CESITY

The public is beginning to realize
the value of salmon propagation.
The demand for salmon for food
purposes is world wide.
From the streams Of the Pacific
Coast states and Alaska and the wat
ers of the Pacific is taken the bulk
of this wonderful food supply.
AS the state has found it necessary
to protect its wild game and encourage
its propagation for the benefit of the
public, it now finds itself facing the
proposition of salmon propagation on
a large scale in order to increase this
source of food supply for all the peo-
pie. Propagation by individuals is out
of the question, for when the salmon
are turned into the streams they are
free to everybody.
Fish hatcheries must be enlarged
and new ones built in order to hatch
the millions of young salmon needed
to meet the world demand.
The salmon supply of the Puget
Sound region has been sadly depleted
by the demand for this food fish and
as the salmon industry of Washing
ton alone is worth about $17000,000
a year, a financial as well as food
and labor problem is involved.
Development of this industry by the
state propagation of fish in public
waters is an absolute necessity if this
food supply is to be maintained.

NEW GASOLINE SUBSTITUTE

"Alcogas," a new motor fuel, which,
it is said, will produce from 10 to IL
per cent more efficiency than gaso-
line, and will run in unimpaired
strength in cold atmospheres, has been
approved by the navy department and
the bureau of standards. Speaking Of
the new discovery by the chemical
department of the United States In
dustrial alcohol company, Mr.. Rubens
of the company said:
ave succeeded in developing eleven
different kinds of fuels containing diff
ferent proportions of the same ingred-
tents. These we have patented. The
eleven fuels will do for use in any
kind of internal combustion motor,
either automobile or airplane. Alco-
gas has been tested in many airplanes
and in all kinds of motors under every
conceivable condition, and it has been
found that in cases where gasoline has
become less efficient it has shown in
creased efficiency. This has been true
where an airplane has gone to high
altitude and the temperature was low.
This new fuel will give the same re-
suits at 60 degrees below zero as at
normal temperature.
The company is said to be planning
to produce the new fuel at the rate of
from 15O,OO0,000 to 200,O00,0O0 gal
Ions a year.

who now control prices and the farmer
has to take what he can get"
Most of us have been rather en-
vious of what the farmer has been
getting the last few years in the way
of prices. We notice in the March 20
issue of the Country Gentleman the
account of one farmer who made $723
net profit from an S85 investment in
a sow and litter of eight pigs. None
of this had to be paid out in union
dues, either.
The farmers of North Dakota have
allowed the radicals to get control of
the state, and it is rumored even this
early that they are bitterly regretful.
The middle west farmers cannot af-
ford to make the same mistake.

CITIES ARE NOW ABLE
TO ISSUE MORE BONDS
Real Instead of Assessed Valuation
TO be Basis of Computation in Flu
ture Indebtedness of Municipalities.

There will Joy in the hearts of the
"spenders" as the result of the su-
preme court decision making actual
rather than assessed valuations the
basis of computation, in establishing
limitations for the incurrence of
bonded indebtedness. The effect of
the decision will be to double the ca
pacity for mortgaging the future on
the part of municipal corporations, in
asmuch as all properties are assessed
upon fifty per cent basis for taxa
ton purposes. In other words, cities
and counties which have already Dor
rowed money up to the limit estab-
lished by the constitution, can indulge
themselves to further Injuries, for
which payment may be deferred.
First to take advantage of the situa
ton has been the Port Commission of
King county and Seattle. The legisla-
tive act permitted the issue of bonds
up to per cent of the valuation of
property for it's improvement pro-
iects. The amount that could be thus
raised aggregated something over 49,
100000. Under the supreme court de
cision it is permitted to issue bonds
to the amount of $17,000,000, which
it will do, according to announcement.
How far this relief may prove adj
vantageous will be dependent upon
the good sense of the voters in large
measure. 1t is a notorious fact, how
ever, that when any question of issu-
ing bonds is up for consideration, the
deciding influence is exercised by cit
liens who do not own property, and
consequently, do not pay taxes. AL
most any proposition which involves
the immediate expenditure of large
amounts of money receives enthusiast
tic endorsement from those who hope
to participate in it's distribution with
out mourning any obligation as to re-
payment. AS consequence the die
tates of good business judgment do
not always predominant, and there is
profligate waste and abuse of a sys
TEN, which, if properly employed, per-
mits of improvement and advancement
that will enhance future wealth, and
for which it is but just and right that
those who will profit most from them
should pay the cost of their creation.
Bonded Indebtedness is, however, a
most delusive factor in its everyday
workings. AS it is expanded there
is a corresponding expansion In the
overhead cost of government, in order
to care for fixed interest charges.
That affects not alone the taxpayer,
but those who so cheerfully help to
pile up these public debts, but cry out
against injustice involved in the "high
cost of living" for the public must
ultimately pay the freight, no matter
whether it is charged up directly or
indirectly. For every million dollars
that is represented in twenty-year
bond issues more than an added mil
lion is exacted before any payment is
made upon the principal. We are
running close to the safety limit,
whether or not we are up to the legal
limit of our bonded Indebtedness and
it would be unfortunate if the new
found opportunity for expansion were
taken advantage of to an appreciable

TRYING TO UNIoNIzE FARMERS

A drive to unionize the farmers of
the middle western states has been
launched. The national organizer of
the union says that the slogan will be,
production cost plus reasonable
profit" and defines a reasonable profit
as ten per cent. Our purpose is to
band six million farmers into an asso-
citation which can bargain collectively
in selling to distributors and packers,
