THE PEOPLES
FORUM


The Forum department has three
articles this week each of real in
terest to readers. "a Northsider'
tells of his faith in the value of com
munity clubs; f. Y. Poore writes of
inconsistencies in the political plans
at Washington as they appear to
him and the third article, from the
Society of Equity, while of course
not written specially for this depart
ment, in advocating a hay inspection
and grading law, touches upon a sub
ject of the most vital interest to the
farmers.
1t is hoped that more and more of
our readers will feel free to use this
department to bring to public atten-
ton those things which they feel are
worth a place in the community
thought of the day.

POMP OR JUSTICE?

To the Editor of the Peoples Forum,
Wolf Point Herald:
In the daily papers of Saturday,
January 9Th, | not in particular two
Associated Press dispatches. One of
them inparts the information that the
approximate cost of President-elect
Harding's inaugural ceremony will be
$1,000, 900. The other is a discus
sion of testimony given before the
House Committee which has the Rog-
ers Bill for consolidation of the sew
eral government agencies affecting
ex-service men by DR.. Thomas w.
Salmon and RI. H. A. Pattison, both
expert specialists. DR.. Salmon is adj
visor on mental diseases for the
Rockefeller Foundation of New York.
DR.. Pattison is supervisor of medical
service of the National tuberculosis
Association. They testify that as a
result of the governments failure to
provide proper facilities for the care
of disabled veterans, many have been
committed to institutions in which
criminal insane, drug addicts, and
vicious degenerates are segregated.
This brings to my mind other dis
patches which have recently come to
my attention and in which Secretary
of the Treasury Houston leads us to
believe that the treasury is on the
verge of bankruptcy. 1t recalls also
the sad and disgusting lack of ac-
ton which has been shown by Con-
gress in the matter of adjusted COM
pensation. The association of these
ideas leads us to scratch our heads in
wonder.
Is our American civilization of
such a type that million dollar cere-
mony is required in order that one
man may succeed another as the head
of our government? Shall the pleas
ures of a monster inaugural parade
and the splendor of a gigantic inaug-
ural ball blind our eyes to the needs
of the men who can never forget that
they helped to make this land of ours
safe for peace and prosperity? For
getPulness for these men is impos-
sible. A missing leg or arm, sight
less eyes, lungs almost eaten away

HOW CAN WE BETTER
OURSELVES
To the Herald:

To the Herald:
AS you have requested farmers on
the reservation or elsewhere, to write
on different subjects, | will give my
ideas on "How Can We Better Our
selves"
/ think that one of the first things
people should do is to get a commu-
nifty club organized and stick to it.
That is one way to make life in the
country agreeable-getting together
to learn to know each other. In that
way we can learn each others needs
and solve some way to overcome our
trouble and distress.
Who is there is this world who
does not like to go to some true
friend and tell his troubles? Now, l
think if neighbors know each other
with the right spirit they can do a
whole lot towards making life more
agreeable on the farm. Don't let one
neighbor sit back by himself; go to
MIN and reason with him, encourage
him so he will see things in a differ
ent light. | think that most people
that are leaving this country are do
ing SO because they have lost all in
terest in farming the last few bad
years, and have not thought of learn
ing to adapt themselves to the condi-
tons here. We all know by looking
up the records of farmers in other
countries, that they have made a
success by the stick-to-it process.
| have in mind a farmer in one of
the eastern states who came up from
the south and took up a homestead
on the raw prairie. After being there
for six years and not raising any
crops he was also discouraged, but he
stuck to it, learned to farm the land
in a different way and soon he was
spelling success. Now we have the
proposition here, and we will
win out if we will just practice the
methods some of our forefathers
used by going into cattle, hogs and
poultry, and not depending on wheat
crops alone.-A Northsider.

by the demon tuberculosis=these are
things that brook no forgetfulness.
Shall we stand on the side-lines and
applaud the glories of Mr.. Harding's
Inauguration, realizing, as we surely
must do, that a long step might be
taken IN payment of the debt of
gratitude that we Americas dis
abled veterans with this million dol
lars that is going up in smoke on
March 18th.

AND
GRADING OF HAY

The farmers of Montana will never
forget the winter of 1919-1920. No
crops, no hay, and very little money
with which to purchase food and hay
for their starving cattle and under
these serious conditions, the farmers
would have made but very little COM
plant, had it not been for the adj
vantage the INSCRIPTIONS hay dealers
of Minnesota and other states took
of them, when knowing the condi-
tons out here and making every eff
fort to relieve the distressing condi-
the reverse was true. Instead of sell
ling hay out here at a small profit,
they took advantage and ran the
price up so that it was pr~ohibitive
and then instead Of furnishing the
resemblance of hay, they shipped
STUFF out here that was not even
fit to bed an animal, let alone think
ing of it for any feeding value, which
resulted in thousands of head of cat
tie and horses dying, entailing a loss
to the farmers of this state that
would run into the hundreds of thou
sands of dol1ars.
The hay dealers knew very we'll
that the farmers were at their mercy
and took the opportunity to buy and
bale this rotten slough grass for
practically nothing, and shipped it
out here, selling it for first class hay,
knowing that the farmer coming sew
eral miles was compelled to haul it
out to his farm and try to keep his
stock from starving, regardless of
the quality or the price.
We know of specific instances,
where several carloads of this dried
Slough grass" that had already been
in some Grass Rug Factory" and in
the process of being woven into rugs,
was shipped out here and sold as
good quality hay. These are facts,
think it over and you will all agree
that there is something wrong, when
like, this can be pulled off on
the farmer. Is it any wonder that so
many cattle died, trying to chew
grass with the warp threads?
Every organization in the state
that was handling hay suffered be-
cause the farmer naturally thought
that just the local organization was
that kind of hay, which was
not the casN because every organi a.
ton was hended the same dose. We
believe the tine is opportune to nave
a bill introduced for the inspection
and Grading of Hay" at the coming
session of the legislature, with ave,y
assurance of its, passage, as it will
not harm anyone excepting only the
Inscriptions hay dealers in other
But on the other hand, it
will protect the farmers of this state
and save a repetition of what hap
oened last winter.
LeI 10 near from every ldTlHer III
crested in this matter and we urge
to take it up with the legisla-
,ors of their district and by a little
United effort we believe this bill will
oe passed and become a law.

coin oat, now grown more or less com
monty in parts of Latah county, is
very similar to the Swedish Select)
Professor Bennett said: ''Since the
Swedish Select variety has given
good results for period of years and
is now commonly grown in Latah
county, it would be advisable to
standardize mainly on that variety"
Barley Varieties Tests
At the same time the county agent
checked up on oats yields, he secured
available data ON yields of various
varieties of barley. In regard to bar
ley varieties Professor Bennett said:
''In a normal season in this section
White Winter barley planted in the
spring will yield better than other
varieties. However, White Smyrna, a
two-row variety, seems to do better
in dry seasons. White Winter barley
planted in the fall has consistently
out-yielded other winter varieties
Since White Winter barley is the best
yielding winter variety and ordinarily
is the best yielding spring variety, il
seems advisable for Latah County tC
standardize on this variety for both
winter and spring seeding. This will
make 1t possible to keep the variety
pure"
