II AIMS, aims For the love
N of Allah, Aims !" This


gar in the streets of oriental
cities. The devout Mohamme-
dan hears it when he leaves the
mosque in Bagdad and he re-
spends generously.
Oriental charity is a sort of
religious obligation to ones fel-
low men who, not infrequently,
are not in need of charity and
simply make begging a profess
sion because they know they will
be rewarded by the devout.
Charity, as it is practiced to-
day, is not an institution of our
own civilization. 1t originated
in the orient and carries with it
all that oriental superstition,
which is so well depicted in Otis
SINNERS splendid play, "Kis-
met" and of which the occidental
has very little understanding.
Western civilization is drifting
away from the ancient concep-
tion. With US, charity begins at
home and it is interested in the
home rather than in the street.
With us, even charity must be-
come productive instead of Great
ing lethargy or inertia. Our
theory of charity is helping 9TH
er to help themselves, not to en-
courage the needy to remain In
need.
The grandiose scoundrel of the
Robin Hood type who robs the
well-to-do with one hand and
with the other distributes his i'll
gained wealth does not appeal to
our modern sense of business
honesty nor of economical eff
ficiency.
Modern Philanthropy aims to
eliminate charity altogether.
Begging in all civilized countries
has become a misdemeanor and
only the unfortunate cripple can
obtain a license to solicit aims on
the streets, thus escaping the
of the law.
Some professional beggars
haye been able to play upon the
sympathy of their fellow men so
successfully that they have ac-
quired a princely income and a
large fortune. Begging, with
them, has become a highly lucra-
tive profession. This method of
upon the public ignor-
ance might be considered HARM
less if it were not a real crime
in that it deprives the really
needy of help they should re-
ceive.
Those dependent upon public
charity in this country may be
divided into three classes:
The sick.
The old or too young to work.
The unemployed.
The first two classes are wards
of the state. Our county hos
pitals and poor farms, orphan
and the various old
peoples homes are supposed to
care for them.

His consistent success led other

Twenty years of road and track

convinced Barney Oldfield that
these speed tests pointed the way to
a better tire for everyday use.
The enthusiastic reception of Old

DEAD OK FLAT RANCHER HAS .
GREAT VEGETABLE GARDEN
Demonstrates that Irrigated Lands
Here will Produce Wide Range
OF Vegetables on Com
mercial Basis

What is probably the best display
of vegetable and truck crops ever
grown on, a single ranch in the
Snake River Valley is to be seen al
the G. w. Lattig farm on Oregon
Slope eight miles North of Ontario
In Malheur county. Mr.. Lattig was
appointed Director on Vegetable
Crops for the county farm bureau by
the executive committee of that Or
ganization last January and he has
proceed to carry out his task in no
uncertain manner as anyone will
bear witness who has visited his
farm since his fifty seven" varieties
of vegetables have grown up.
The first thing Mr.. Lattig did was
to partition off two small farms from
| his 100 acre high class irrigated
ranch, chosing the best land he had
for the vegetables. To do this he
had to build an additional house
He then took two of the best, ex-
perienced white vegetable growers
he could find into partnership, agree
ing with them as to the crops that
were to be grown, thus making up
the firms of Lattig and Johnston and
Lattig and McGorden. In these steps
also he made no mistake as the re-
suits testify, there being IL acres of
as good head lettuce as can be found
anywhere, 2 acres of Danish Ball
head cabbage that is coming right
along, acres of cauliflour some of
which is so tall and thick that 1t
practically hides the ground, besides
5 varieties of onions, half acre or
so of tomatoes, several kinds of
melons and squash menageie, table
beets, carrots, sweet corn and sweet
potatoes. Also. potatoes of Irish
variety, two acres of which are being
grown for next years seed and have
already passed the two field inspec-
tions for certifcation and promise
to beat all corners for yield.
Besides having a great collection
of different kinds of vegetables, the
partners have some interesting ex-
periments in process, such for in
stance as the comparative results
from seeding cauliflower in rows
where it is to be grown and thinning
it the requied distance between the
plants, or following the customary
transplanting process. In view of
the possible Importance Of fall caul-
iflower as vegetable which may be
grown ON an extensive scale for
shipment fsom this section are long,
these results are worth observing by
vegetable growers and prospective
vegetable growers.
In order to give every person in
terested in this line of farming an
opportunity to examine these veget-
able demonstrations, County Agent
l.. r. Briethaupt has arranged for
a Vegetable Growers Field Day for
Monday afternoon, September 25th
at the hour of $3.50 p. m. Aside
from examining the growing crops,
which will be the main part of the
program, 1t is planned to have one
or two short talks on vegetable
growing to answer any questions
which may come up about produc-
tion methods and particularly as to
the marketability of the different
sorts and prospective profits to be
derived from growing the same.

Wisconsin Crop Conditions

The weather of the week was
moderately warm and in most To-
calities, dry. This was favorable for
harvesting and threshing, but the
nights have still been too cool for the
best growth of corn, and rain is
needed, in many sections for pastures
and meadows and in some localities
for corn and potatoes. Corn has i'm
proved; in most localities it is
growing rapidly. Potatoes continue
good almost generally. Winter
wheat, rye, and barley are being
threshed in southern counties and
harvesting is in progress in the
north; the yields are only fair. The
harvesting of spring wheat and oats
is in progress. Oats is heading on
short straw, but the heads are well
filled; rust is reported in several 10
calities, and it is badly lodged in
some sections. Tobacco is only fair;
topping short. Commercial cherries
are mostly picked; a large crop;
Truck, vegetables, cranberries, sugar
beets, soy beans, second crop of
clover and alfalfa, good. Rutabagas
excellent. Apples fair to good.
Plums ripe.

Within the southern highlands"
of Wisconsin, Iowa county comprises
region from which sturdy people
have earned liveihoods in agricul-
ture or mining.
The county's agriculture dates
back to 1880. Lead had been mined
in the county for some time prior to
this and most of the early settlers
were attracted by rumors of rich de-
posts of ore. The first recorded at
tempt at farming was in 1929 when
40 acres of land in the town of Lin
den, in the west-central part of the
county, were put under the plow.
The first crops of wheat and oats
in the county were produced on the
farm at Linden in 1881 from seed
secured in Illinois.
Survived Crisis of Sick Soils
Wheat early became the most i'm
portant crop. Grown year after
year, it soon gave rise to an improv-
ident system of farming. Yields de-
clined to a point where profits were
extremely small. Continued crop
ping finally made it necessary to
adopt a new system of farming. Tim
Der from the cleared lands was vast
ed and burned for there were no saw
mills in the interior and no good
means of transportation to the river.
In 1854 at town called Ladoga
the first cheese factory in the state
was established. This marked the
beginning of a diversified agricul-
ture and the saving of county
which now produces more than
II, 100000 pounds of cheese and the
milk production, of which, reached
total of more than 100000 in
1920.
The county now boasts of 1876
cheese factories and, of the fact,
that it stands high among the cheese
producing counties of the state.
Famous for Beef Cattle
Blue grass pastures, not even sur
passed by the celebrated Kentucky
meadows, feed thousands of the
country's best beef cattle.
Since the discovery of lime de-
posits all over the county, lime
grinders are encouraging alfalfa
growing. With an increase in this
crop, it is expected that the beef

between Seneca and Eastman, where
the hail covered the ground and two
hours after the storm the unmelted
hailstones could be gathered in great
where they had been driven by the
wind.
About half of the small grain had
been cut and that will be pretty well
saved, but the uncut grain was ham,
mered into the ground and is total
loss on most of the storm-swept area.
Corn was riddled and what is not
broken off or hammered to the
ground is riddled 10 ribbons and at
best will make very poor fodder.
Potatoes, cabbage and all garden
truck, too, are in sorry plight and
scores of farmers have lost practical
ly everything except the crop of hay
which they had just finished putting
up.
Fruit, also, was completely wiped
out in the affected area.
The first storm came about 900
p. m. and was followed by another
shortly afterward, but the one that
did the enormous damage occurred
about 1870 and came from the north
east, very unusual direction.
Today the farmers in the storm
stricken area are bending every en-
ergy to save the little remnants of
the crops here and there and getting
seed to replant some things that
might yet provide feed for the stock
and food for themselves .-Exehange

AS Deep AS It Is Broad.

The University Of Wisconsin
offers a course in humanities. Fond
du Lac high school has just put in a
course in Character education.
George Bernard Shaw said in a re-
cent London lecture that while read
ing, writing, and arithmetic are es-
sential, a knowledge of the code of
morals is equally essential. The
pupils should be trained, he said, in
the initiation of plans and purposes.
Routine should be subservient to
achievement. The Community re-
lationship of the pupil should be rec
ognized and enforced. 1t is the bus
mess of the state to see that no
man escapes his responsibilities as a
citizen. "He ought to put back into
the common stock as much as he has
taken out. Then he should make an
extra contribution, else his country
will not improve and humanity will
not advance"
These things are signs of the
times. We are beginning to demand
depth as we'll as breadth in educa-
ton, strong foundations of character
building, social responsibility, per-
sonal initiative, and training for
leadership. AS Prof. Carl Fish of
the University points out in speak
ing of the course on humanities,
''The purpose is to give men and wo-
men the best possible preparation to
be leaders. The strong leadership
of the period of the Revolution is
lacking in this age"
