! ARM BUREAU IS
Constructive IN
PLANNING WORK

by j. r. Howard, President Of the
American Farm Bureau Federation
1T has always been the policy Of
the county farm bureau and the Of
llcers in charge OF 1t to avoid any
thing bordering upon class cons
ciousness, or which would tend to
destroy any other line OF business
In the last analysis, there 10 no dis
tinction between the interests OF the
producer and the consumer, between
the interest Of lie farmer and the
town dwaller. II is true the farm
sr could live longer without the men
in town than could the urbanite
without the farmer, but Immediate
" the farmers activities would be
limited only TO that which he him
seif consumes on his farm He must
have an outlet for surplus produc-
ton II Is 70 the farmers interest
that the city prosper. Call 1t sell
liahness on our part If you want,
but we as farmers are dependent up
on railroads and manufacturing up
on wholesalers and retailers. The
more healthy the general business
OF the country is, the better is IL
for the farmer would selilshly
like to see every laboring man in tho
country employed every day Of the
year al useful employment and at
coed wages, for would then be as
sured OF a certain market for the
surplus Of my farm. | have no sym
pathy whatever with any farm
movement which tends to build up
agriculture at the expense OF any
other industry, for il would in itself
defeat its own end very rapidly.
Neither have ! sympathy with any
line Of business which tends to push
downward agriculture or agricul-
tural prices to the exploitation Of
other business Whit we need and
must have in this country is a prop
er economic adjustment or balance
between the farmer efl industry,
9hd J consider II one Of the func-
tions Of the American Farm Bureau
Federation 10 assist in seeking this
proper relationship.

How About You.

Do rem arkable things have a ha-
Bit Of happening to some men and
women while the lives Of others go
long day after day with no unusual
adventure? We suppose this must
be true, for we haze heard men and
women tell by the hour Of wonder
full adventures, have heard preachers
tell Of marvellous happenings and
soul stirring events they have wit
messed ap1 yet we've been going up
and down this old world FOR several
years and Nothing remarkable has
ever happened to us Have never
been the hero Of some stirring ad-
venture never caught che biggest
fish, killed tie deer with the biggest
horns nor rescued a beautiful
stranger from the dcyouring waves,
and don't believe we could carry a
100 pound woman with a sprained
ankle q mile and 4 half, no matter
how beautiful she was. in fact, look
ing back over an ordinary lifetime
II seems to have been just about an
lyer9ge Of the lives and which comes
this way but once.

BASKET BALL NOW
Chief WINTER JOY
OF SPORT Lovers
All Stars Lose to Meridian
and Win From Caldwell
Highs Take Caldwell for
One Game.

The All Star basket ball team
played the Meridian team at Meri-
dian Monday night, losing the con
test by a score of 26 to 36. The
Meridian floor is only about half the
size of the local floor and presents a
serious handicap to players accus-
toned to the larger space. Mem
bers of the local team declare that
they will hereafter refuse to play
on any but a regulation floor as the
possibilities of injury are greater
and they are unable to play their
best when crowded for room.
The Caldwell American Legion
team played the locals at the high
school Wednesday night and were
defeated, the score being IL to 26..
The game was slow and marked by
large amount of fouling from both
teams.
The High school basket ball
team entertained the Caldwell II. S.
team Saturday evening, the game re-
sulting a score of 23 to 81 fav
orable to the Mountain Home team.
The game started late and thereby
lost considerable of its interest as
the crowd was tired from the long
wait. 1t really isn't. fair to the pa
irons of local sport to advertise a
game at $3.50 then have it start
at 9:20.
The game this evening will be a
double header between the girls
teams from the Mountain Home high
and the Bliss high, and between the
boys from the same schools.

AS to Untangling.

When the washerwoman brings In
the clothes from the yard she gathers
the line in mass and throws ii in
to the shed The next time she
hangs out the clothes ii takes her
quarter OF an hour to find the line
and untangle II for use. Not taking
time to coil up and put away the
clothes line accounts for our untidy
alties, Thoughtlessly we throw pa
pers and fruit skins into the street
and there they lie until somebody
comes along. picks them up and
puts them out OF sight, where we
should have put them In the first
place. Useless work made for 9TH
ers, tangled clotheslines for the
Tiers to untangle.
II everybody would do his part in
life as he passes along. straighten-
ng out things and untangling In
stead of tangling, thinking how to
save for himself and others instead
of passing home, office and shop du-
ties on to Others what work and
worry should be saved.
In day when we adopt every
sufficient method to reduce unneces-
sary labor, wouldn't 1t be fine IL we
all remembered, for our own satis-
faction as well as that OF the other
fellow following us, not to tangle
the clothesline?
