Those Frightful Business Letters

The language of business Is turgd and tangled The

Something should be done about 1t.

This turgdity, this senseless Journalism, this long

Some of this rambling, patitudinous psychology must
get into the very blood of business matter of
and it makes for waste effort for vexation of the con-
sumers spirit and for the needless crucifxon of the
willing, but bored, stenographer.
Also there's about the average business letter an in

Editor The star

Editor The Star;
we are just plain farmers. and "s
wish 70 thank sou for the stand you
are taking In re- farmers being unable
10 make a living these days.
We know from experiences II is all
TOO true. for we live In a splendid
farming district. and want 20 tell
you that not one OF our neighborS
Is making a living at farming.
Many OF them get all the work
they can by day 20 enable them 70
live at all. They have been raised
on farms. and their fathers before
them. and / want 20 tell you that. tho
they raise good crops. have good
stock and know the business from A
10 u. II simply Is a question OF work
Ing from daylight TO 8 or . az night
10 feed their stock. let alone making
living for themselves and families.
and never syan think or hope 70 b
paid for their ogn hard work and
/ time.
All because feed goes up when pas
ture goes down, and the price or milk
goes down when the first blade OF
grass appears. and they could at least
break even. not having 70 buy 50
much feed
This apples 20 poultry men as
we'll. We are IN the poultry bust
ness. and Il Is some Eee-Eaw. for
when eggs go up feed il 80 high
Il eats up all the profits. and the
Same thing when eggs are cheaper.
The three months in winter. when
eggs are high. the poultry man must
figure on what little he profits 70
pay for feeding during time OF mott.
ing season, and during the ak
months they are being raised 10 ma.
turity, and oh. how baby chick feed
does soar al that time!
Figure Il out yourselves. and you
won't need 20 wonder why we are all
quitting farm life 10 try and al least
make a living.
Otherwise Il simply isn't being
done" these days on any farm!
Tho farmers are selling out just as
fast ms they can. and some are Jus,
leaving them, for we have 20 live and
raise our families. even II we are Jus;

Again we want To thank you, and
We ever wish you all the good luck

The Farmer and the City Man

reader objects 10 the series of editorials that have
been appearing The Star calling attention TO the plight
of the American farmer lie insists that the farmer Is
making money; he knows that is. He declares with
vehemence that the farmer needs sympathy ana
that thousands of folks Seattle earning fortunes
from the soil.
Peace brother peacel Just a minutel
We spoke of the farmer the average for the whole
Northwest and whole nation. OF course we have some
prosperous farmers in Western Washington lots of them
But this is mighty small spot on the world. Most OF the
farming is done back in the Middle West When the
Middle West farmer is hit the business of the entire ma
ton reflects it. And the Middle West farmer isn't max
ing any money nowadays.
We said we wouldn't offer any cureal for the farmer
We won't But hopefully suggest that fair, honest
effort ought to be made to solve the marketing problem
That would go far toward putting the farmer on his feet
To the city folks Eastern writer says:
Get outside the city limits at least outside the main
residence section and buy two. Have good
garden-enough for your own needs and reasonable
amount that may be sold if there is any market Build
actually BUILD-a home with enough ground around II
for lawn and rose bushes and garden Raise few hens
And work in town at your job That's the modern city
dwellers best hope"
This Eastern fellow is exactly right That is the hope
of the city dweler That's the high road to conenment

 Coming from such at such a time, and addressed by him to the National Coal Association as disinterested and able authority as there is in the land the conviction that slowly has been taking shape in the minds of the people a whole Labor as no right to class exemptions special privileges
 The Ideal oI unionism is collective bargaining but the unions do not provide of the bind ing force of the bargains they make In every other human relation in the country contracts invioabe uniess fraud be shown; but whenever a small faction m labor union is stampeded by some soapboxer or becomes excited over some grievance that ought to be settled in conference in 15 minutes or in any one oi thousand ways is mised then covenant that morally is as sacred any other agreement is repudlated And the other party to the covenant has no recource, defense The employer s TO sponslole under the law, the employee is not
 The unions have made a serious mistake in re- iushg to accept any legislation that define their accountability Therefore in all labor contracts men do not now negotiate equals Their obligations do not hang even, they not reciprocal That aft tude has cost the unions may of best friends they ever possessed and is costing them others every day lhey themselves are to blame for the small faith the public has in their fidelity to the contracts tbov ahe ana the uncertain value of these contracts tends 10 ueieat that full recognition of the unions for which they strive.
