The Republican administration came
into authority in March, 1921, pledged
to put more business in government
and to have less Of government in
business. That pledge has been lib
orally redeemed. One of the first
Things which the Republican admins
tration did was to impress upon
business interests that It was I'D to
them to become self-reliant II they
wished to become self-sustaining:
that they must begin to work out their
own salvation instead Of running to
the Government for artificial stimulus.
Legislation has been enacted wherever
1t could prove helpful, but 1t has not
been permitted to take the place Of
individual energy and thrift.

Congress Goes to Aid
Of Agricultural Industry
List OF More Important Measures Written,
introduced and Passed by Republicans
To Assist Farmers During Crisis
q. 8. REPRESENTATIVE j. n. TINCHER KAN
SASS, MEMBER HOUSE COMMITTEE on
AGRICULTURE

Farmers of the United States no
only comprise the largest single class
of producers but they are the larges
single, class of consumers of finished
products Of all kinds, and the larges
class OF shippers. In view of al
this, it is essential, in order that the
country as a whole be prosperous, thai
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 81, 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
markets.
The best proof that the tariff really
protects the American farmer is the
fact that since its operation Canada
has renewed her efforts to negotiate
reciprocity treaty that will admit her
agricultural products into this country
free. AS a further proof Of the effect.
iyeness of this tariff it was renewed
November 16 1921, by the solid vote
OF the consressmen 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 quarter Of a cen.
fury there has been a demand from the
producers and consumers for control
OF the packing End allied Industries.

FIND SHELLS CENTURIES OLD
Belief That Relies unearthed by Work.
men in Oregon Were Used as
s Ornaments by indians,

Sea shells about six inches across
were uncovered by workers recently at
Big Eddy. near The Dalles, Ore, lying
at the heads of Indian skeletons.
They We're decayed and crumbled when
touched. These shells showed indica.
lions Of having been used as ear orna-
ments. They are Of the species OF
shell-hsh commonly called "cohogsr on
the Atlantic coast, according to per-
sons who have observed them, and
do not grow to the size of those found
on the Pacific coast.
Wonderfully perfect spear and ar
row-heads, made of obsldian, rock
found no nearer than California, also
were unearthed All of the chipping
on the arrow-points found appeared
TO be much finer than later Indian
work, local amateur collectors de-
clared.
The relies found by highway work
ers at Big Eddy are an accumulation
of centuries. In the opinion of d. L.
Gates, city recorder, who has lived in
and around The Dalles for more than
% years. He points out that In the
hills back of Big Eddy trails worn In
the rock may be seen, evidence Of the
activities Of Indians who used these
trails for hundreds of years. Mr.
Gates says that at Big Eddy the In
dams find finer salmon fishing than at
any other place along the river and
have been making the trip to that
place annually probably ever since sal
mon began running up the Columbia.

FEED GARBAGE ON PLATFORM
Concrete Floors Are Very Satisfactory

Where the garbage is delivered on

best plan is to feed 1t to hogs in lots
Of about an acre In size which contain
one or more feeding platforms pro-
Nded with by ledge on the sides to
prevent the garbage from being showed
OF the platform. These platforms
should be mounted on skids and fire.
Quentiy shifted from place to place in

been unloaded on the platform the
hogs are turned into the lot. Where
the garbage is delivered in railroad

tracks. Platforms Of concrete are very
