Is MR.. FALL
RIGHT.
PAGE SIX

The farmers OF the miouie west are
against reclamation, says Secretary a.
b. Fall OF the Department of the In
terror. He says I'm effect that they fear
over production and a consequent de-
cline in the price of the food stuffs
that they produce.
Mr.. Fall alleges that their reason
ing is not sound: that produce is
wealth and that a man cannot become
poorer by producing wealth, that
makes the world richer.
This may be sound reasoning but
the Press believes there are a vast
number of wheat and corn growers
that will hesitate before accepting II.
II Is common knowledge that many
crops OF food stuff in certain localities
have been produced at a loss to the
farmer. In some cases Il has been
proved that the more the farmer rails
ed the more he loat-in spite Of the
fact that he was producing wealth, as
Mr.. Fall says.
The Press does not advocate q farm
er's strike or anything akin to lowered
production. II does advocate the treat
ment of agriculture as the iggest bust
ness In the world and the application
OF Duhlncn nclnouh. NoOu mtuilOuh ln-
volve the creation OF o good and reli-
abel all year market, the rotation OF
Crops necessary TO prevent over pro-
duction in any particular phase Of ag-
r%iculture, and intelligent farming and
marketing.
The farmers of the middle west
should not be against Reclamation on
the grounds stated. They need have
no fear OF over production II their
farming is handled on a business
basis. But they should fear pursuit OF
the theory evolved by Mr.. Fall, that
produce and wealth are interchange
able, No sane manufacturer would
produce his goods at a loss. He would
close his factory first. Neither should
a sane farmer produce his product al
q loss.

DOLING OUT THE
crops.

CHOPSs
II takes a year for the farmer to
grow his crop, and by that time has
80 much OF labor and capital invested
In II that he naturally desires to real
lie upon the Investment at as early a
date as possible which desire was
strengthened all through the pioneer
period by the need OF ready money.
That Is 10 say, the growing season is
about as long as farmers have felt able
TO advanye expenses and "Iay out OF
the use of their money"
And so there has grown up the prac-
tice of sending funds into the crop
districts at harvest time to move the
crops" assuming that they would pass
possible moment.
The Country Gentleman has no
sympathy with any movement looking
toward the locking up Of food supplies
or with any organized attempt TO Gre
ate artificial prices, but IL fatty dis
claims any obligation on the part OF
farmers TO dump their entire crop of
the year regardless OF market condi-
lions, and Il maintains their right to
become themselves the holders until
their commodities are needed for ac-
tual consumption II they think II will
pay them to do II.
The wheat crop of the United States
for example, is all harvested within
the period of three or four months,
and the wool clip within less than half
that time. Both must be held" by
somebody and doled out to cover n
twelve-month consumption demand.
III now Il is held that the farmer may
mot he the holder, then we will ask
the question: Why must another set
of men take possession of these pro-
ducts at the immediate moment after
they are ready for consumption, know
ing IL will be n year before another
supply is forthcoming?
Not only that. but why should any
financiers on principle refuse funds
to the farmers to do the doing out
and the specializing, IL you please
while we all know that the Spectator
works entirely on borrowed moneys
Why Is II not as legitimate for the
producer to do this, II he so desires,
as II 10 for IN extra party TO step In
at the first possible date between the
producer and the consumer?
IL is impossible for producers num-
bering millions, even we're they so in
clined. to hold up society as effec-
tually as could a or a hundred
dealers holding the years supply abb
solutely I'm their hands. Upon this
point the interest OF the public is
clearly that the supplies should come
somewhat slowly and gradually from
the producers hands into those of the
consumer.

THE TOWNSHIP
SOIANHLE.

II goes without says that the pro-
perty rights OF every citizen In Amer
lean Fails should be protected In any
dealings contracted between the mu-
~nicipality of American Falls and the
United States Reclamation Service.
The Reclamation Service also should
receive n square deal and neither the
city nor the Service should forget that
the water users have certain rights
that must be protected.
IL is too early TO say c~onclusively
that there Is a fight on between the
city council and the Reclamation Ser
vice. As a matter OF fact negotia-
tions have not ever commenced. And
at this time II Is proper TO assume
that we have a cautious and %iudicious
council. capable engineers IN the Rec
lamation Service, and far seeing men
on the board OF directors OF the canal

face is the last face to be seen in a
mother.
There is power in a mothers song.
The best music in the world is what
mother makes. No brass band, no pipe
organ can hold a candle to mothers
song. Patti and Nordica, and Homer
and Geraldine Farrar-these names
stand for sweet, music. All up and
down the land they have sung but
somehow the music that mother makes
kind of tangles up our heart strings
little more than anybody else's song
and | will be disappointed if there is
no mothers song in heaven.
What do you care about an angels
harp and song if there is no mothers
song? There is more in mothers song
than in a minstrel's song or a poets
song.
Did you ever hear a mother sing
with her baby on her breast, wonder
ing whether it will get well or die?
Her voice may not please critic, but
her song will. And the best music
the songs that have moved the world
were not written by the great has
ters. But there is nothing in art that
can put into melody the happiness that
associations bring and when you hear
a song that mother used to sing, it
drives your mind back thirty or forty
years to a rocking chair.
"And you will find when you get to
heaven that many of the best songs in
heaven are mothers songs.
"Then again there is power in moth
er's love. And how was God to tell
this old world that He loved it with
out a mothers love? | think that if
the devil ever turned pale and got cold
feet it was when a mothers love first
famed up in a womans heart. A
mother has to love her baby before it
is born. 1t may grow up and become
vile, but she will still love it. One of
the awful things about hell will be no
mothers love in hell. Nothing in 1t
but black bottomless hate.
"And though her boy with bleared
and blood-stained hands stands under
the hangman's rope mother will love
him for what he might have been.
''There is power in a mothers kiss
to give inspiration and courage and
hope. A mothers kiss will give US
strength where there was weakness.
"Thank God for what mother love
has done for this old world and for
putting into a mothers heart that
love"
