OF Spencer, Iowa, describes the pitt
able condition OF tens of thousands
of homeless, starving, half-naked
refugees. driven from their homes In
the war area, and huddled in stables
and out-houses, or on the bare
ground, for lack of shelter
Most of the refugees are country
people with almost nothing except
the clothes on their backs, stupened
and dazed by their misfortunes.
Bread is given only to women and
children at the rate OF one-half loaf
for a person, each day. The milk is
reserved for the babies and sick. The
refugees sit around, huddled up
against the walls-women with dull,
sad faces, little children that are blue
and pinched with the cold. and too

of five sleeps at night on bare stone

girls, who have no one in the world

MARKET SOBERING UP

Times never were so dark but that ray of light came from some source And now when the bottom has dropped out of the markets of the world. word comes that all indications point to a stabilization of the live stock prices. This should indeed be a ray of hope to the South wher it is so much de- pressed by the breaking of the cotton market.
 In . system of farming that will make Southern agriculture safe live stock must have it's place. Now is the chance to practice some diversification and raise live stock for meat for home consumption and for sale on the mar ket. Feed for livestock is also cheaper than it has been in many months. With cheaper feeds for producing ami mals and the necessity for cattle and hogs in the plan of diversijfcation, the production of, f,farm animals should be stimulated.

 "Since you have helped me in every possible way in making my flock of Brown Leghorns a success, 1 want to tell you what I have accomplished with them during 1920. My egg sales during January, February, March, April, May, June, November and De- cember amounted to $93.85 for 238 dozen. Hens and cockrels sold from the years hatch brought $145.25 making me a total of $239.10.
 "You will note that I did not keep account of egg sales from July to No- vember as that was our busy time with our work.

TIP FOR WINNEMUCCA

Inquiries have come to the Eagle
this week from Oregon and Illinois,
for farm lands in the Lahontan Val
ley. A great many of these inquiries
are coming to bushes people but
there would be many more inquiries
that could be effectively answered If
small leaflets or folders were provid-
ed giving the information that pros
pective settlers naturally want to
know about the town AMI farming
community. 1t is understood that the
Commercial Club contemplates giving
out something of this kind. The
Eagle has for years insisted that
literature of this kind should be is
sued SO that business men and people
in general could slip 1t into letters
they are sending out and thus spread
the news of the wonderful resources
of this project. This printed matter
should be provided in abundance

NAVY SECRETARY
WAS BUCK PRIVATE

When the United States entered the
World War, big heavy-set man
walked up to the recruiting desk on
the streets of Detroit and held up
his right hand.
Swear me in as a marine!" he
said.
How old are you,' asked the re-
cruiting sergeant
"Forty-seven," was the answer.
you are too DID," said the SER
geant. what do you want to enlist
for?" .4IE
The man smiled.
The country needs men," he said.
"All cannot begin as officers. | am
ready to be a private"
This man was Edwin DENLY, attor-
ney-at-law, president of the Detroit
Board of Commerce, and American,
then unknown to millions of his fell
low Americans. Today he is the Hon.
orable Edwin DENLY, bearer of the
Republican portfolio as Secretary of
the United States Navy and rated "a
full mans man" by his former asso-
ciates of the marine corps.
1t took special arrangements at
Washington to get DENLY into the ma
rine corps. 1t took waivers of his
age, his weight which registered 254
pounds, his height of TN inches, and
his married status. But he made it
through the guidance of Brigadier
General George Barnett, now in COM
mand of the Western department of
the Marine Corps with headquarters
in San Francisco. From then on
DENLY became marine, heart and
soul.
Mixing concrete. unloading lum-
Der, and carrying oyster shells were
some of his daily acts Of routine. At
Paris Island, S. c., he became a lee
urer on corps morale, but never for
moment overlooked the fact that he
was lone of the bunch"
DENLY could hit bulls eye at
1900 yards and mix with any buck in
the regiment" says Ben j. Cope,
newspaperman, who served with him
during the World War. DENLY went
to France in July of 1918 where he
was stationed as an observer on the
western front. He returned covered
with high honors to become marine
corps reserve major.
He could outwork any two men
and do more smiling about 1t than six
Others Cope declares, summing up
the new Secretary of the Navy as a
big man who will always remain a
buddy" and a regular fellow"

COW MEN BOUGHT
IMPORTED PRODUCT

Harper, Oregon, is town seldom
heard of. even in Oregon. 1t is in the
center of a vast plain of hill and
desert and covers many thousands of
square miles in that state. Although
it is remote ii is in the middle of
the largest cattle ranch on the Pa
cific coast, If not the United States.
Recently the keeper of the village
store at Harper received a shipment
of corned beef Each can was la
beled "Companie Swift de las Plata
Argentine" CONSERVATION Argen-
tine beef in the heart of the biggest
COW camp in Oregon. Writing to the
Portland Oregonian, the storekeeper
says:
Here are all my customers load
ed up with cattle they cannot sell.
We put a million pounds of as good
wool as was ever grown in Oregon
through our warehouses last spring
and cannot get a dollar on it, and
our paternal administration Is offer
ing Cape and Australia wool for sale
ever day. Our warehouse is full OF
pelts and hides which the dealers will
not even allow us to ship to them
because the pelts and hides are not
worth the freight. Every ship is
bringing in more Argentine stuff to
make conditions worse for us.
I'VE talk of the league of nations
and wet and dry. We are chasing the
shadow and ignoring the real issue
which is, for us, Shall we have five
cent wool and two-cent beef again
as we had in the good old Cleveland
days?"
A good deal of twaddle is talked
about the removal of economic bar
riers and the economic villainy of an
adequately protective tariff. But
when the Argentine meat product
can find its way across oceans and
over thousands of miles of dry land
and be sold on huge cattle ranch
at price that is less than the ranch
mems own product would cost them
what is the answer? What is the re-
lation between the profitable condi-
ton of the Argentine meat business
and the poor condition of the domes-
tic livestock industry in the United
States? What do the Free Traders
think about the concrete example?
