Let us, then, consider some Of the
farmers grievances. and see how far
they are real. In doing 50, We should
remember that, while there have been,
and still are, instances of purposeful
abuse, the subject should not be ap-
preached with any general imputation
to existing distributive agencies of de
liberately intentional oppression, but
rather with the conception that the
marketing of farm products has not
been moderniZed.
An ancient evil, and a persistent
one, is the undergradlng of farm prod
ucts, with the result that what the
farmers sell as of one quality is re
sold as Of higher. That this sort of
chicanery should persist on any i'm.
portant scale In these days Of bust.
ness integrity would seem almost in
credible. but there is much evidence
that II does so persist Even as |
write. the newspapers announce the
suspension Of several firms from the
New York Produce Exchange for ex.
porting to Germany as No. 2 wheat a
whole shipload Of grossly inferior wheat
mixed with oats. chaff and the like.
Another evil Is that Of inaccurate
weighing Of farm products, which, 1t
is charged, Is sometimes a matter OF
dishonest intention and sometimes of
protective policy on the part Of the
local buyer, who fears that he may
weigh out" more than he weighs in. >
A greater grievance is that at pres.
ent the field farmer has little or no
control over the time and conditions
Of marketing his products, with the
result that he is often underpaid for
his products and usually overcharged
for marketing service. The differ
ence between what the farmer re-
ceives and what the consumer pays
often exceeds all possibility of justi-
fication. To cite a single illustration.
Last year, according to figures attest.
ed by the railways and the growers,
Georgia watermelon-raisers received
on the average rs cents for a melon,
the railroads got 127 cents for carry
Ing II to Baltimore and the consumer
paid one dollar, leaving 79S cents for
the service Of marketing and its risks,
as against 20.2 cents for growing and
transporting. The hard annals OF
farm-llfe are replete with such com
mentaries on the crudeness Of pres
ent practices.
Nature prescribes that the farmers

or three months of the year, while

news FROM WASHINGTON
Everything Looks Good For
Democratic Victory.
By Wallace Bassford

Especial News Correspondent
Washington, D. c., Jan. l6.-
The swing is very steadily TO-
ward the Democrats, with in
creasing momentum. A survey
OF the newspaper field shows the
Democrat press aggressive. and
full of intelligent criticism of the
short comings CT the administra-
ton while the independent
papers in large numbers are in
similar attitude. The old con-
servative Republican organs,
mostly owned by the big rich,
are on the defensive. Speaking
OF these organs. it is interesting
to note that the DuPonts have
bought up all the papers in Della.
ware of any size excepting two;
they can not get those for the
very good reason that a staunch
and able Democrat owns both of
them-no other than Willard
Salisbury. who will probably re-
turn to the Senate as the re-
suit of the election next Nov
ember. All of the Hearst
papers about a dozen big ones
are attacking the administration
evey day. The extensive string
of Scripps-McRea papers-penny
dailies-are frankly criticising
the Republicans. 4
The New York Telegraph, a
Republican paper, refers to the
fact that President Wilson pre-
dicted a Democratic victory next
November. and adds: ''Presi.
dent Wilson is a great man. but
1t doesn't require a great man to
discover the present drift of
public sentiment"
The Republicans are trying to
work their courage up to the
point of enacting a sales tax.
Such a tax has come advantages;
among them are these: You
can't dodge it. You pay it every
time you reach your hand in
to your pocket, no matter what
you buy. You don't, haye to
bother about a saving account,
for this tax will not allow you to
save anything except your old
trousers and your integrity to
heaven. It will be easy to col
lect, because it will come off Of
those who have the least in
fluence at Washington-the plain
people. Better than all, it
forces the soldier to pay his own
bonus; he should be happy. for
he not only gets tine bonus but
has the privilege, of paying it
himself. The only drawback is
the name. but the Republicans
will doubtless find a name for 1t
that will make it look like a
check from Dad. Didn't they
.even mske robbery sound good
by calling it 'Protection?"

RUTH BRYAN OWEN
Daughter of W. J. Bryan to Lecture
on Premier Circuit

Redpath- Homer Chautauquas con-
slider them selves very fortunate in
having been able to make an exclusive
Chatauqua contract with Ruth Bryan
Owen.
Mrs. Owen is famous entirely in her
own right and does not need to de-
pend in any way upon the great repu-
tation of her father, W. j. Bryan.
She is one of the most eloquent 'wo-
men on the platform. BY all odds,
she is the most eloquent that the writ
err of this story has ever heard.
Her Lecture, Modern Arabian
Nights, is as fascinating as those
/ stories that have delighted us all our
lives.
/ 1t is the resume of her experiences
in the West indies, in London, in
Egypt, in Palestine, as well as trip
around the world. She has the humor
the ease, and the delightful narrative
style of her father. She has won
derful voice which she never finds
occasion to force
She has the mastery of man with
the grace and sweetness Of the most
feminine creatures in the world. Ruth
Bryan OWENS lecture will mark one
of the high points of the 1922 pro-
gram.
However, it must not be supposed that
the mission of Ruth Bryan Owen is
simply to entertain of to delight her
hearers with her most unique and in
teresting experiences.
Mrs. Owen has decided mission.
She has lecture of tremendous force
and of definite value. She makes one
of the most sensible and logical argu-
ments for world peace that has been
presented on the Chautaugua plat
form.
