Congress Goes to Aid
of Agric -ilral Industry
List of More I'm ortant Measures Written,
Introduced an Passed by Republicans
To Assist farmers During Crisis
u. s. REPRESENT TIVE j. N. TINCHER (KAN-
sAs). MEMBER House COMMITTEE ON
,RECULTURE


Farmers of the United States not
only comprise the largest single class
of producers but they are the largest
single class of consumers of finished
products of all kinds, and the largest
class of shippers. In view of all
this, it is>essential, in order that the
country as whole be prosperous, that
the farmer as class be prosperous.
When the Republican Party came
into power in March, 1921, the agricul-
tural sections of the country were in
the midst Of the greatest depression
they had ever experienced.
In response to a general demand
from the agricultural interests the Re.
publican Congress, on May 27, 1921, 40
days after the session convened, en-
acted the Emergency, or Farmers
Tariff. This stopped at once the influx
Of agricultural imports and saved to
the American farm producer his home
II arkets.
TIE best proof that the tariff really
protects the American. farmer is the
fact that since its operation Canada
las renewed her efforts to negotiate
reciprocity treaty that will admit her
agricultural products into this country
free AS a further proof of the effect
iveness Of this tariff it was renewed
November 16, 1921, by the solid vote
of the congressman representing the
agricultural States. The enactment
of this tariff was opposed by the solid
Democratic minority in both House
and Senate, with few notable excep-
tons.
For more than a quarter of a GEN.
fury there has been a demand from the
producers and consumers for control
of the packing and allied industries.
Responsive to this demand Congress
enacted such law 1t cannot be gain
said that the livestock industry of the
United States has had better treatment
from the very day that this law began
to operate. This bill was drawn by
Republicans, introduced in both
branches of Congress by Republicans,
and passed by both branches of Con-
gress controlled by Republicans.
For more than 40 years there has
been pending before Congress, in one
form or another, legislation to control
grain exchanges and to stop the manip.
u!ation of prices of farm products.
such a law has been enacted by this
Republican Congress. Like the pacE

BETTER THAN INSURANCE

The 'o1d lady of the plastered
house." Felcherville correspondent
for the Lamoille county group OF
newspapers, often writes piece OF
homemade gospel and plain sense
that will bear repeating.
She says:
Have you noticed when driving
through this way that grove of white
pine set out a few years ago by the
Jewett boys? A great many made
sport. Wonder what they think
now! 1t is growing fast and better
than an insurance policy. The first
cost is all; nature and time does the
rest. Why not some more young
men try it. There is plenty of poor
land; cedar would pay big and could
get the young trees here"
1t is pretty slow business getting
the average Vermonter interested in
reforestation, especially if he has
considerable pasture land of doubt
full value but necessary, according to
his viewpoint, for grazing. The
strange part of it is that even these
pastures are being destroyed by var
ious agencies, erosion by freshets,
invasion by bareback and worthless
brush and killing out by summer
heat for want of humus.
Practically all of these pastures
would pay better in woodland than in
scanty and Improbable grazing
areas, especially those which are sub
ject to the wash of spring waters
from the melting snow and rains.
There are areas like this in Rutland
county which are being washed away
year by year, some of which are
practically ruined by great gulches
and ravines cut across the soil.
Sandy soil, in particular, must
have either strong heritage or trees
to hold it down, and once it begins
to wash away, very little can be done
to save it.
The state forester states positively
and cites figures to prove it, that re-
will pay the entire cost of
planting, taxes and upkeep, with
profitable margin by the time the
timber is cut. 1t is quite long
time to wait for profits, but land
owners who intend passing on their
to their children will find it,
as the ancient oracle suggests, bet
ter than some insurance policies.
A stand of young trees will go
about as far to increase the value of
as good buildings and cult !
it costs practically moth
ing after the first planting.-Rutland
Herald.
