ODntaiiu Argua County Official Papur Ah Independent Newspaper NNWM Publlsuod Thursdays at Ontario, Oregon, and ontorod at tho Ontario post office for distribution as 2nd class matter. O. K. Alkon, Managing Editor BUDBCRIPTION Ono Yoar, 2.00 WATCHFUL WAITING Tho farmors of Malbour County, apparently, havo adopted tho policy of watchful waiting, on tho question of tho advlsnblllty of going Into the dairy buslnoss. And this Is not nl togotbor to bo wondered at. Tho fannora havo seen, In yoars past, slumps In tho hay innrkot and then witnessed a return to profitable lorels. Many ospoct to sou this phonomona rcpeatod. Thoy bo Uovo that tho stock business Is bound to conio back and with Its re turn to normal a parallol roturn on tho part of tho hay prices. To a degrco thoy aro right, and worn tho situation Idontlcal with that which provallod In tho past, would bo positively Justifiable Hut con ditions aro not tho samo. Thoro aro two conditions, over which tho farmers havo no control and ovor which no community has control.. tMt makes tho roturn of hay ,plur problematical, and would tond to tho bollof that soma othor sourco than bcof cattlo nlono must bo found through which to mnrkot tho hay of this region. Theso two conditions are: Tho docronso In tho numbor of boot cattlo, through tho actual salo of tho foundation of many hords, and tho docroaso In tho opon rango; and thq Increased ncrongo In alfalfa In all tho Wostorn statos. With thoso olemonts takoti Into consideration It would soom to bo tho part of wisdom on tho part of tho hay ranchers of this region to glvo mnturo consideration to tho problom of dairying ; and thoro Is no doubt that many of tho ranchors aro giving It serious thought, but havo not yet mado up their mind what to do about it. Duo consideration of tho magni tude of tho ranchors' problom and what It moans to him to chango com pletely his dally work, and to a de grco his inodo of living, togotbor with the Increased lnvostmont which tho Introduction of dairying entails, compells one to havo sympathy with the rancher and certain that In mak ing his decision ho should not be hasty, but should carefully consldor tho problom. On tho othor hand, thoso ranchers who do put In dairy cows will bo of material aid to thoso who do not, for thoy will thus taka their hay out of competition with those who con tlnuo to raise hay for sala. Wo will havo two markots Instoad of ono, and thoro Is ovory reason to bollovo thnt tho dairy business will grow gradually to a pont that It will sur pass In consumption of hay usod for beef cattlo. So far from tho qucstloualro sont out by tho farm bureau, thoro has been listed a demand for 300 cows In tho county about equally distribu ted throughout tho lrrlgatod sections. Ilesldo this thoro havo boon a num bor of ranchors who Indicated tholr deslro for cows, but at tho samo tlmo woro hosltant about signing tho quostlonatro. Thoy woro not Just suro about It. Otliors woro Just ro luctant to put tholr nnma to any pa per that might Impliedly bind thorn to tako posltlvo action. This was to bo oxpoctod, for thoro Is always a porcontago thus reluctant to dotor mfno an Issuo. Whtlo eomo might bo disappointed at tho results so far obtained In tho dairy campaign, tho Argus doos not fool that this Is Justltlod, and thnt tho work should go on, for oven It not as groat as somo might doslro, tho nddltlon of only 300 to COO dairy cows will start tho campaign and will tond to fix tho Industry In this soctlon, and thon tlmo will domonstrato Its desirability and It will grow. THANKSGIVING DAY Today thoro aro twenty million homos In Amorlcn. 1'rom thoso to day, oven tho humblest of them, prayers of pralso should ralso for tho blessing of ppaco. Hard though tho lot of many may ho, compared with tho hardships which tho brave band of Pilgrims faced at Plymouth' throe conturlcs ago, thoy havo much to bo thankful for indood. In tho history of mankind three centuries Is a short span of tlmo; 'but In tho history of human pro. gross, Judged by tho standards ot clvlllzod soctoty, thoso throo hun dred years havo soon greater pro gross than were rocordod In tho thousand .years vh!ch proccdod thorn. From tho olghth contury whon foudallsni was at its halght, to tho fourteenth Kuropo, from which our present civilization omanatod, was In tho throes of a groat strugglo; first for n degree of political froo dom, thon tor a moasuro ot religious froodom. Tho first was achlovod whon King John signed tho Magna Oharta, and tho second bocamo a reality whon tho Pilgrim's landed in Amorlcn to found a colony whoro tut? might, "Havo freedom to wor ship God." Yot so restricted was tho very vor Blon ofrellglous liberty 'thoy thorn solves held, that thoy banished Itogor Williams bocauso he dfd not think as thoy thought. Yot tho Idea which thoy oxompllflod would not down; Othors camo to thoso shores for tho samo purposo. Lord Ualtlinora founded tho colony of Maryland and William Penn that ot Pennsylvania, both committed to tho same Just principle. Thus that which tho Pil grims plonoorod, theso men and tholr followers established as tho corner stono of tho arch upon which untl- matoly was built this groat ropubllc. Tho light ot religious liberty could not bo contlnod to tho bordors ot this contlnont but woro rofloctod to othot shores, back to Europo from whonco It first camo and all tho clvlllzod world has now accepted It as tho true condition procodent to human progross. Today a third evolution Is in an I tost In tho strugglo for industrial froodom, and this In Itsolt should bo tho chlot causo for thanksgiving in tho majority ot homos In this broad land. Whereas In tho struggol for re ligious llborty tho bloodiest wars of history woro fought, and only loss torrlblo woro tbo wars ot political froodom, yot tho struggle tor Indus trial froodom Is bolng carrlod on through tho ballot and through tho education ot the people" Tho rights ot man aro moro sacred and better protoctod now than ovor in tho past. A spirit ot toleration Is manltoat on ovory hand and tho strongholds ot Industrial fuodallsm wilt fall lnovltably in tho courso ot tlmo. Mnny havo fallon already, and tho pooplo of this land enjoy spirit ual and material happlnesB to a do groo unknown to tho Pilgrim fathors of 300 yoars ago. That como back ot tho Ontario High fooiball team In tho socond half was an exhibition worth seeing. Tho fighting spirit thoro mnnlfost is a tanglblo asset of tho boys that shows tho stuff that is In thorn. aro Bo thankful today that you living In America and not In any ono of tho countries of Europe MALHEUR COUNTY REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS RECORDED NOV.
