to govern the country have to DC formed
after election OF the little parties that
are returned to power. What seems to
b happening here Is that the. bloc will
have TO be formed before the election
which will be held under the names Of
the existing parties.
VIII Defer Third Party
This movement, If 1t develops as II
now promises to, will put off indei-
nitely what has been expected for years,
thc break uD Of one or the other of the
old parties and the formation of new
third party. But IT, this movement at
Chicago is as successful In its way as
tho farm bloc movement has been. a
profound change will take place in our
national life.
It Is only one step from the demand
Ing BY organized groups Of voters Of
something to say in the naming Of the
candidate for the presidency and in the
writing of platforms to demanding u
: partitioning Of seats in Congress be-
tween the various groups. Such par.
titioning Is in effect in England, where.
for example. when the Liberal and the
Labor parties cooperate. the Labor
party refrains from naming candi-
cate fOr l'QrllamenL against Vnc lslD 4.
- eral IN one district in consideration Of q
/, similar abstinence BY the Liberals in
another.
In similar manner, provided the bloc
movement goes on in this country, the
farmers, If making a combination witt,
the Republicans. will probably come tr
demand the nomination under the nam,
Republican of definitely furm candidates
for the House and the Senate in certain
} States and districts. The prOgresslv,
industrial workers group will similarly
demand the naming as Republican can
didntes in industrial cities OF radical in.
tellectual laborites. Seats in the Hous'
( Or Senate and division of the spoili
will sooner or later become the pric'
Of what Is politely called now operating
within the parties.

MOUNTAIN FARMING PAYS

Agent of Avery County. North Car
olina. i'm recent article insists that
mountain farming will pay as well
as that conducted elsewhere, provid-
ing the proper crops suited to the
mountain regions are planted and
cared for.
The point for a man to keep. in
mind is to adjust his crops and live
-$tock to the size and condition of
his farm. Cooperate with the Mar
keting Association and a good living
is assured, For his section he re-
cOmmends birdeye beans. onions,
poultry, sheep and cattle, both beef
and dairy.
We may add that apples, peaches.
pears and small fruits, given proper
attention, will add largely to the in
come of the farmer and, when they
are grown in sufficient quantities.
will be eagerly snapped up by large
buyers. The growing of truck will
mean the establishment of canneries
for tomatoes. beans, sweet corn, as
well as the fruits above mentioned.
We urge every thoughtful citizen
to get behind Mr.. Mayhem. our own
County Agent. take an interest i'm
his work and at the same time talk
and boost for fruit and truck cul-
ture in the county as well as sheep.
dairy and beef cattle chickens, and
everything else that will tend to
make for better returns for the farm
worker. Even if from a selfish
standpoint. it is worth while. since
the more prosperous the farmer the

ity in which he lives.
