cattle belonging to A. D. Fitch at
Jameston were the next point of in
terest and everyone agreed that Mr..
Fitch has some fine stock. The out
standing points which go to make
up a good beef animal were dis
cussed.
A field of head lettuce was in
spected at Stanton and short talk
on head lettuce given by Mr.. Ross.
This is new industry which is be-
ing introduced into southeastern
Idaho and If it proves satisfactory
will probably be very desirable
late crop.
The last stop was made at the l..
L. Christensen farm at Shelley. Mr..
Christensen has both Russets and
Rural potatoes of exceptional quail
ity. He has hand selected his seed,
and thorOly rogued his fields to
eliminate disease as nearly as pos
sible. The results are very crafty
ing.
Thirty-one cars, containing 1870
people attended this excursion and
everyone had a good time, in addi-
tion to learning great many things
they did not know before. One is
never too old to learn, and even tho
man has been farming for many
years he can usually learn some
thing by taking a trip of this kind
and seeing what the other mans ex-
perience has taught him. A great
many expressed desire to have
more excursions next year. If you
are farming you should plan to at
tend any future excursions that may
be held. 1t only takes one day and
you are surely entitled to that much
vacation.

tom. This type is preferable, Mr..
Quinn states, because the top and
root will dry up and brush off and
leave a smooth product that will
keep we'll.
At 1 o'clock a picnic lunch was
spread under the trees at the
Arnfred Christensen home at
Goshen. Mr.. Christensen has a
large lawn and plenty of shade. A
barrel of delicious lemonade was
discovered near one of the trees.
After lunch the following program
was enjoyed:
Community singing, led by Mr..
Holland; address by DR.. G. L. Link,
of the U. s. department of agricul-
ture, on control of potato diseases;
address by Dean Miller, School Of
Forestry, University of Idaho, on the
best kind of trees for this section
and the value of trees to the farm
stead; duet, Mr.. and Mrs. Holland;
address by c. B. Ross, secretary Of
the Idaho Farm Bureau Federation.
Diversified farming and co-opera-
ton.
Immediately following the pro-
gram visit was made to ]. H.
Nelson's farm. Mr.. Nelson has
some good quality Rural and Russet
potatoes which show the result of
careful seed selection and culture.
Some pure bred Percheron horses
were also an interesting feature at
this farm.
The next stop was made at the
Rufus Pack farm. Mr.. Pack has
some Of the best dairy cattle in the
country. He formerly owned a dairy
farm in Cache valley and upon NOV
ing to Idaho brought with him one
of his best cows, a very high pro-
Queer. This cow is the dam and
grand dam of all his present herd.
Mr.. Pack states that the farmer
with dairy cows will always be bet
ter fixed financially than those who
do not have them. He further says
that he would never have been able
to hold his present farm, which he
purchased at very high price, had
it not been for his Holsteins. The
farm bureau is going to promote
dairying in this county if possible,
and this fall will endeavor to organ
lie bull associations in each locality.

and bushels to the acre by using the
pure certified seed than he would by
using the common seed. Last spring
he sold his seed potatoes at from
$500 hundred to $3.50 q hundred
when other people were getting
from AZ cents to $3.50 for the
common potatoes. Mr.. Sundquist
has always kept good horses on the
place, but last year he concluded
that they were too much of a mixed
lot and did not match we'll in his
teams so he sold OF all his horses
and last spring he bought matched
spans OF horses. One span of bay
geldings, four years old, that
weighed 5000 pounds; he bought. a
span Of mares, three and four years
old that weighed 5000 pounds, they
are matched quite perfectly. He
has concluded to sell out his Short
horn cattle and buy dairy cows. He
has two heifers and a calf for sale
now. He also raises pure bred
Plymouth Rock chickens and pure
bred white Leghorns. He says he
plans his crops three and four years
in advance, keeps the fields as clean
and free from weeds as possible,
plans his rotation so that everything
will come as easily and naturally as
possible. He keeps records of the
breeding Of stock and keeps books
on all his farm transactions so that
his books show him at all times just
what he is accomplishing. He raises
the large type of Durock Jersey
hogs and also raises the pure
Idamine oats that he sells for seed.
When he wants oats to feed his
stock he buys it of the neighbors
just because the Idamine oats are
worth more for seed and he can
make money by the transaction. Mr..
Sundquist lives in West Firth, but
his address is Firth route 1.
Mr.. Sundquist regrets that farm
ers and business men in the towns
do not mingle together more in their
work and in social affairs so that
they shall know each other and
their purposes better. He spoke of
the excursion of the farm bureau
last week covering considerable of
the county in company with experts
and said it was made up entirely of
farmers and no business men from
any town or village accompanied
them on their trip. He hopes that
people will reverse that method Of
looking at each others business. He
says he believes the farmers feel
the need of counseling more with
business men and bankers. He
thinks it would be better IL the
business men and bankers could
come out and counsel with them on
their own soil. He says that If he
were operating a bank in Blackfoot,
knowing what he does about the
farmers and their problems and
how much the farmers appreciate
the help and friendly advice of men
in banks and other business houses,
that he would keep a man employed
whose business 1t would be to visit
the farmers, look over their prob
lens and apply his business views to
those things and counsel with them
on the things they have to solve. He
says he believes it would be a great
help to the farmers, that most of
them would welcome such visits and
that their feeling of appreciation
would be business-builder for the
bank.

THE MONEY QUESTION"
(By Henry Ford)
Continued from Page ~

business bring into existence Fed
eral Reserve System or any other that
allows for an elastic" currency, the
tendency is practically to go off the
gold basis, and of course in the eyes
of the owners of gold this is danger
Gus procedure 1t lowers the price
of their commodity. Gold as money
is worth much more than gold as
gold. So they prefer to tamper wit,
the prices of food rather than risk a
danger to their gold.
That is the only point where gold
matters much-because being set up
by law as the standard, it is always
possible in critical times to make all
money bow to it, and the men who
own the gold can thus make bigger
corner" than ever was made on the
stock exchangey they can literally cor
ner the world, and they have cornered
the world. And it is the worst thing
they could have done. By overplaying
their hand they have called attention
to the very thing the people most dis
like to think about, the inside workings
of the money system. There are more
people thinking and inquiring about
1t today than ever before because thew
are determined to find out how all
these things can come upon them from
a clear sky.
Now as to fanaticism, Judge between
these two attitudes. The first says
gold, gold, gold, there is no money but
gold; to gold all other money must
bow. The second says, keep gold if
you want it. use it for all superstitious
financial practices you desire; hold as
much as, you please for the psyche
logical effect" on those who want to
feel that their money is gold based
But there isn't enough of that kind
of money to carry on business. tits like
trying to float an ocean steamer on a
country creek - the creek cannot car
ry the load The true basis of money
IS not gold, anyway, but the usable
wealth that can be exchanged between
human beings. There is enough Of
wealth to carry twenty times the mon
ey we need to support life with. Keep
your gold if you want it, but make
some arrangements by which things
may flow to those who need them ard
who are able to exchange wealth for
them. Don't dam up the stream of
prosperity because your gold outlet is
too small to let the stream run thru.
Make other openings.
Which attitude is the most 'fanati-
caP'. The fanatics are those who can
not see over their bags of bullion.
They are worshipping a dead thing.
They are placing their whole depend
ence on the most useless metal in the
world. If that is not fanaticism, it
would be impossible to describe what
fanaticism isl
