Railroaded?
Mothers Busy Season
There are some weeds to be dug, wheat to be cut,
fenees to be mended and cows to be milked but down on
the farm this is the season when mother is the busiest
person alive. There are roasting ears in hampers brought
from the fields, peas, tomatoes and cucumbers ready for
canning; wild cherries, peaches, plums, early apples and
blackberries in buckets, tubs and pans.
The rich aromatic pungency of sweet spices, cinnamon.
cloves and ginger fills the air. And in stained pulp bags
dripping purple juices, white plates of golden brown discs
in the sun, and full, steaming containers on the stove.
there is promics of jelly, jam, preserves, picklo and sauce.
Busy fingers peel, Cut, slice and pit, stir, pour, bottle and
cap, seeming never to ask or find a moment of relaxa
tion. Quietly but hurriedly, for the fruit may spoil, the
work is carried on until shelves are stock with the good
things that make a house a home.
On a smaller scale canning is done in the city. Des
pite the development of wholesale preserving, no substi
tutes for products prepared at home have been found. Even
in the two-room, light housekeeping apartment one or two
jars of peaches, plums or grapes reverently arc being laid
aside until winter comes again. -
Then when tho last robin has winged its way to the
south and the shrill wind of winter demands entrance to
the home, mother will go to the pantry, and proudly pro
duce a jar, can or bottle. The hard work on long hot days
will be forgotten; the memory of abundant fields, of juicy
fruits and luxuriant gardens will remain. This is the sea
son mother tries to keep until it comes again.

Shades of darkness! Think of it.
George W. Marshall, chairman of the Oregon delega
tion to the McAdoo-Sniith-Davis convention in New York,
has returned to his home in Baker and openly stated in
the Baker Herald lust owning that the nomination of Char
lie Bryan for vice president was "railroaded."
Listen to the remarks of this man who for 100 ballots
battled for McAdoo: "The vice presidential proposition was
a railroaded deal. Davis named his running mate and he
was put' over on' the first ballot." v '.

boasts of being "iniliossed," "unbridled" and possibly "tin-1
hossed," now conies the 'chairman of the Oregon delegation
openty, stilting that J'.rvan was "railroaded" on the party.'

More Lives Than A Cat
Congress is now ready to back the Baker irrigration
project for the "severalth" time. This project hits more
lives than the proverbial cat. It has been dead, dead, dead
on different occasions and then Bill Steward and Fred
Phillips of linker breathed new life into it and away it
went in congress with Nick Sinnott directing its course.
Kick has been sitting on the lid for a long time preventing
jjalous congressmen from sticking the sharp steel knife
;nto the vitals of the Baker project and now he has nursed
it until seemingly it can almost take care of itself.
; A man by the name of Mead is out here now doing the
last checking up on details of the project before construc
tion work starts. The hope is that the work will begin
this summer, for opposition to this excellent project has
been defeated as it came up. When the alfalfa is growing
on Lower I'owdef river and the contented settlers ' are
milkinir the lone-tailed cow. and the honev boes are buz
zing and happy children play on the grass, all made pos
sible by irrigation, Congressman Sinnott should arrange
lo spend his vacation there, for it will be a satisfaction
to. him to know that he stuck by the project and pulled
if through; ' " ' . i...
