Secy. of Agriculture
Outlines Market Plans

RTLAND-William M. Jardine,
secretary of agriculture, outlined
what he termed three fundamental
principles here. Jardine's three prin-
ciples follow:
A particular plan for particular
commodity; honest, efficient and ex-
perienced managers, and loyal mem
bership which knows how the organi-
Zation operates.
Basic problems cannot be solved by
legislation, he said. Laws, he aver.
red, can be nothing more than shock
absorbers. He said marketing prob
lens must be solved by individual
communities, with farmers and bust
ness men working together.

What Can Electricity
Do for Agriculture /!

BY LII. Smith, Secretary Of the Wash
ington Executive Committee on the
Relation Of Electricity to Agrlcul-
ture.
Within the last rs or 80 years we
have entered into a great electrical
age. Power from dams and steam
plants no longer must be used on the
spit, but can readily and economically
be transported 100 or 200 miles, by
being changed into electrical energy.
To-day there is no part of our state
that cannot easily be reached by cleo
tricity If there is demand for it in
of transmission lines.
In the city, electricity is well nigh
Indispensable in the store, the fac
tory, and the home. Yet many of us
who would ) not like to be classed
among the middle aged" can easily
remember when t was only with great
discussion and by slow development
that electricity came to be used in
the towns and cities. The home alone
can now buy socket appliances to use
electricity for the comfort and conve-
nience Of the family in at least Is diff
ferent ways. No, the modern city or
town could not do without electricity.
But what of the farmer and his
problems? Can electricity help him

women? It has done great things for
the city dweller, why may we not ex-
pect electricity to be of equal benefit
to those who live in the country and
feed the nation? There are questions
that the farmer and his wife are ask
ing today. The year 1922 saw a be-
ginning Of the study Of this great
problem, when National Committee
on the Relation Of Electricity to Agri-
culture was organized This commit
tee has representatives from the Am
erican Farm Bureau Federation, the
American Society Of Agricultural En-
cheering, the National Electric Light
Association, Society for Electrical De
velopment, and the United States De-
partments Of Agriculture, Commerce
and Interior.
The object of this widely-represen-
tative committee is to encourage and
assist in the organization Of state
for the study and solution
Of this great problem. Thus far Is
state committees have been organized.
These investigations are usually con-

tive committee was formed to direct
the work for our state Since the
State Of Washington has already de-

beyond most states, 1t was felt that

make careful survey OF representa-

high time that the people of our state
take some steps to utilize more of this

Easter This Year Will
Corhe a Week Earlier
Present Custom of Wearing New and
Bright Clothes Is Centuries Old.

Easter this year falls on April 18th,
coming a week earlier than it did last
year when it fell or April goth. Eas-
ter Sunday is the first Sunday after
Paschal full moon, and therefore can
not be earlier than March p, or later
than April 18th. Lent begins on Ash
Wednesday, which comes 40 days pre-
vous to Easter Sunday not counting
Sunday.
Easter is the festival OF Christ's res
direction and is one OF the most joy
Gus days observed by the church. It
usually comes about the same time as
the Passover of the Jews. The term
Easter was first used when Christiani-
ty was introduced among the SaXons.
Gregory, who was bishop OF Nussa
in A. D. $50, in writing about the
Easter festival says: All Christians
assembled everywhere. as members OF
one family. The poor man dressed like
the rich and the rich wore his gayest
and brightest attire, whilst those who
had no good clothes OF their own
borrowed Of their neighbors. Even the
little children put on their new clothes
and were bright and happy
1t was therefore evident that the
present custom OF wearing new and
bright clothes on Easter is at least
fifteen centuries old.
