1--WE condemn the unsound

Democratic Platform 1882.
when the futility of maintain
ing prices of wheat and cotton
through so-called sterilization
became apparent, the Presi-
dents Farm Board, of which
his Secretary of Agriculture
was a member, invented the
cruel joke of advising farmers
to allow 20 per cent of their

up every third row of cotton
and to shoot every tenth dairy

Not only winning a prize once but
twice, is the experience of Charles F.
White, of Oakland.
Mr.. White was awarded a 52-piece
set of dishes at Terra Alta, w. Va,
the other evening. Not caring to keep
the dishes he offered them to the K. Of

there on Labor Day.
A number of persons became eligible
for winning them there, but when the
number was drawn the dishes were
again awarded to Mr.. White.
So he made present of them to his

PERFORMANCE
AGRICULTURE-CROP
RESTRICTION

In the summer of 1888 the Gov
eminent paid farmers under the
AAA to plOw up 10, 500, 900 acres
of growing cotton, or % per cent
of the total acreage.
The Bankhead Cotton Act of
1884 set a limit of 10000, 900
bales of cotton to be marketed
by farmers from the 1934-1935
crop.
In the fall of 1888, the AAA
destroyed 100000 pigs and
slaughtered 100000 prospective
mother sows at a cost of over
$3O,O00,000. The total live weight
of the pigs and sows slaughtered
was 443, 627, 348 pounds. Of this
only 97,064,155 pounds of food
products were obtained-the
rest was converted into inedible
grease or fertilizer.
The AAA RETIRED approx
mately 100000 ACRES of
corn, wheat, cotton and tobacco
from cultivation, or one-tenth
of the land in cultivation in the
United States.
agricultural Adjustment Administra-
ton Reports)
In an address to farmers in the
City of Washington, d. c.,
May IA, 1885, the President
summarized the performance
of the New Deal as follows:
at is high time for Y GU and me to
carry by education, knowledge of the
fact that not single program of the
AAA contemplated the destruction
of an acre of food crops in the United
States.
at is high time for you and me to
make clear that we are not blowing
under cotton this year-that we did
not pillow it under in 1884 and that we
only plowed some of it under in 1888
because the Agricultural Adjustment
Act was passed after a huge crop of
,.2s'tton was already in the ground.
"It is high time for US to repeat on
every occasion that we have not waste
fully destroyed food in any form. 1t
is true that the relief administrator
has purchased hundreds of thousands
of foodstuffs to feed the needy and
hungry who are on the relief rolls in
every part of the United States.
"The crocodile tears, shed by the
professional mourners of an old and
obsolete order over the slaughter of
little pigs and other measures to re-
duce surplus agricultural inventories
deceive very few thinking people, and
least of all the farmers themselves.
"The acknowledged destiny of pig
is sausage, or ham, or bacon, or pork.
In these forms millions of pigs were
consumed by vast numbers of needy
people who otherwise would have to
do without"
