When next you ride oq top of a load, listen to the constant racking, creaking, groaning sound of the wagon box and wheels, as the load pitches back and forth over the road ruts.

VEGETABLE DISPLAY AS RULES REQUIRE "The rules of the vegetable exhibit should clearly state the requirements in the different classes of entries, and exhibitor should rigidly adhere to them," says Professor A. Q. Buuqiiet of the Hoiticutlural department, Ore gon Agricultural College,. "There should be no haphazard "displays. , If the terms call for six beets, the ex hibitors should show just six and ex pect disqualification for an entry of five, seven, or any number other than six. These are simple matters and easily controlled, but they are essent ial ro prize winning. "It is just as neoesFary to put up the packages and t8g them correctly according to the rules. I have found cabbage entered as Danish Ball Head, which was not Danish Ball Heal at all, ' but an altogether different variety. Growers should not enter products of doubtful pedisree and stock. "Nor is it best to exhibit a large number of reputed new varieties. They are frtquentlv nothing but vac ations of real varieties and after a year or so lose their temporary characteristics. Improved strains of standard stocks are superior to shifting varieties. "But the thing that appeals most forcibly to the judges's eye is uni formity in eiz, color, shape, smooth ness -and clemliness. Any entry of vegetables which displays these qualities is in line for a prize." The Greatest Battle of Them All. We talk mnch of great battles, which have shaped human destiny, but forget that vearly the farmer is fightinu one on which hangs the fate c f all Ihe empires. It began hy fell ing the forests or rupturing the sod with the primitive weapons of the time, and goes on now with fearful fury in subduing the weeds and resist ing all the. encroachments of . evil which thiong the earth. Floods, droughts, unfavorable harvesting weathei, distance from market, con gested demands, and the combinations of capital to depress prices are all in the line of this hero's onward march, while his cohorts are flanked with these same oppressors in making every weapon in his hand cost him much. Eveiy manufacturer ia his Becret enemy, overy consumer an ooen foe. Let your mind run out now over the broad fields of our land, and then think how it is dotte 1 everywhere with the sombrero and the orevall, beneath which a hero battles in the sun. Wliatever nig rewaru, mocn or meager, your hemt might go out to him and yon might well reach to hold up his tired arms, for his failure means the lack of everything to nim and that of nearly everything to you. Yes, he battles for sustenance for himself, it is trne, but he has uever yet got so small aa to wish to suppress the output of others that his prices may be higher; but he has gone over and m'cgled sweat with that of his neighbor that both may have food and raiment. Where else can you find this? If one business united with another, it is that some third may suffer. The great battle is raging now, while the rest of os scarcely know enough of it lo lift a good wish to the heroes of this great heat strife. We are too busy figtng each other.
