SUCCESS ON The FARM
DUE TO THE FARMER

Life on the farm is the greatest
| life there is, according to G. L. (Far-
mer) Smith, agricultural expert for
the O.-W r. & NJ who delivered a
most interesting address before the
Spokane chamber of commerce Tues
day. Mr.. Smith, who is one of the
best known agricultural experts in the
west, and who is known to pretty
nearly every farmer along the o. w
lines, delivered his talk in epigrams,
every one of which had meat in it.
He said in part:
my hobby is home making and
diversified farming.
ssThe best people in the United
States are born and brought up on
the farm.
The ideal farm home is the place
where man may secure the greatest
amount OF perfect satisfaction for the
least amount of labor.
Place two men on farms with
soil, climate and markets the same !;
one will live like a king, while the
other is grouchy, ugly and ill-natured-
The ugly fellow told me farm con-
ditions were bad because of the tar
iff. When dinner time came he told
me he didn't have any taters cause
the frost got at 'em.s I'd like to know
what the tariff had to do with his
taters being frozen.
When some men are unsuccessful,
they blame the other fellow; when
they are successful, they say: did
it.
Why all this propaganda against
farming? Some office-seekers who
shout about bad times on the farm
are like doctor who scares the life
out of his patients so they won't get
we'll
Il was never yet In community
good.
Success or failure to a man on
the land doesn't depend upon politics
or talk. but upon the man on the
land. what he does and the way he
does it.
There isn't a law in any state
that prevents a man on the land from
furnishing his table with all the
strawberries and cream he can eat
at this time of the year; or prevents
taters from freezing, or furnishes
a satisfactory market for scabby po-
tatoes and wormy apples.
The man having land in the Spo-
kane valley who can't make living
ought to be ashamed to go away from
home and tell about it.
1t is not good business or sense
to plant farm all to one thing.
You have one thing here in Spo-
kane I am proud Of, thing I have
urged other organizations to copy
they can't make it better-that is your
agricultural committee. They are do
ing splendid work Every similar
should have one"
Sell the Spokane valley to your
selves Don't listen to the fellows
who have failed. Darn it all that amt
the way to do it. Talk to the fellow
who has succeeded"

IRELAND PREPARES TO REDEEM
BONDS SOLD In AMERICA

Dublin-(A. PA bill is to be in
troduced into the Dali this session to
carry into effect the pledge made by
Michael Collins that the Irish govern
men would redeem all the Irish re-
publican bonds.
These bonds, to the amount of about
$4,000, 900, were floated in the United
States, in Ireland and elsewhere, and
contain an undertaking that they
would be redeemed six months after
the establishment in Ireland of an
Irish republic. Michael Collins
claimed that the treaty, apart from
it's form, effectively established Irish
freedom, and that the condition on
which the bonds were issued had been
practically realized.
Despite the difficult Irish financial
position, President Cosgrave, as fin
ance minister, has decided that all
the bonds shall be paid off

LABOR SHORTAGE ACUTE
THROUGHOUT NORTHWEST

San Francisco-A scarcity of skilled
workers in nearly all branches Of in
.dustry in the west during May is
noted in the monthly report Of j. A.
Kelly, San Francisco district director
of the employment service Of the
United States department of labor,
made public here There are fewer
men out Of employment, Mr.. Kelly's
reports shows, than at any time dur
ing the past IL months.
Pronounced shortage exists in farm
labor. Employment conditions in the
steel industry are exceedingly bright.
Coal almost alone showed a slight
falling off, due to seasonal curtail-
ments, the report says.
Favorable weather has resulted in
increased logging activities, particu-
larIy in Washington. Oregon, and
Idaho. These states now employ over
100000 men in the mills and camps,
and the demand continues greater
than the supply.
Building and road construction is
progressing on a large scale. All
building tradesmen in the large cities
are fully employed. Road work is
drawing heavily on the available sup
ply Of common labor.
