to speed up transportation," said J
lJyer. J-urther improvement in con
ilition of equipment in May released
for service 48 additional locomo
tives and 199 freight cars. This
(fives us ciily 11.4 per cent of loco
motives requiring heavy repairs ami
U.O per cent of freight cars in bad
order, as compared with the 15 and
5 per cent set as the mark for the
railroads as a whole.
"The latest report on average
miles per freight car per day shows
that in March we secured an aver
age of 40 miles Der day, and in Ap
ril an average of 42.4 miles per
ilay, as coniDured with thp Amer
ican equivalent of 73,700 additional '
car ciays in April, or an average cf
2,457 cars per day- I
"The average car load in March
was z.h tons, in April 28.1 tons and
May 28.0 tons. The beneficial re
sults of this heavy car loading to
.shippers is shown hv the fact that
the heavier loading in April, as com
pared with March, was equivalent to
adding 1,4:15 freight cars to the car
supply available to our patrons.

and financial figures in Poitland are leading it. Practically the
entile business and financial world of Portland is backing it, says
the Oregon Journal.
The movement is more like one of the old war diivcs than any
thing that has happened since the aimistice. Representatives of i
more millions of dollars sat at a luncheon the other day to resolve j
..upon the movement than have touched hands and delibeiattd since'
the days of Liberty loans and the lied Cross. As you looked over
the faces of those present you could almost see the old Liberty I
Temple just beyond the windows in the loom in which they iva-'iUrsh.V

Aside from the miner and forester, practicalY the whole of the
Inconglonieiate, top-heavy city mass which we call civilization
rests mioii the farmer, and has so grown in proportion that under
the strain of dividing up his earnings to support them, the farmer
is carrying a burden that threatens lo ciush him.
Yet the fanner is the great customer. Tluough the counlry
bar.k he is indirectly a palion of the city bank. Tluough the coun
try merchant he is indirectly the customer of the city wholesaler
and the city manufacturer. He buys 1(1 to (1(1 per cent of the man
ufactured goods Amoiicnu industries make.

thrust upon agriculture, keep this in mind as proof of what a I'orl-'M
land drive for better faim markets means: We cannot all be farm-
ers and maintain a modern civilization, to be sure. P.ut we can al!
be fanners and imrvive. P.ut we cannot all be city men and exist,
even for a day.
Then, if the city cannot exist without the farmers, the city can
not prosper unless the farmers prosper.

The factory system is iir..gnized as the key to ail bums ol
productive industries today all over the world - except in agncul
Hire, wiites Anion Shapiro in The World's Work. Now, where
theie is the faetoiy system or gioup pioduction there is giuup
capital. Where there is gioup capital there must lie a corpoiatioii
fermed. 'I hat is why every state in the I'nion established l-iws
whereby group marketing and production could be carried on, giv
ing iis the ai lil'icial thing called a corporation fur ca; lying on that
activity. Put they forgot the farmer. '1 he fanner's is the only
part of modern industry (besides art) in which you have individ
ual production. The ideal of eveiy man is a country dulled wiih
farm uniis in which one man operates the farm and produces
tluough his own labor or tluough the assistance of hired men. And
they think that because the farmer produces individually, niarki t
ing is an individual pmblem.
