Great Object Lesson
Oinlitltitf the brass bond, the
tnllltsrjr display, the fireworks
both pyrutcchiilcul and verbal,
tho Highlit International Dry
Funning Congrnss which was
hold at Tulss. Okla., from Oo
tober 2 to 81, Inclusive, marked
another milestone of that pro
gress which should be the goal of
ovory farmer and furtnor' wife
of the Northern Ilomlaphoro. It
waa the most stupendous ttiatl
inony to tho modern theory of
ntrrlcultim , that licud work plus
hand work means buccohh, t hut
tho writer ever witnessed.
From origin which as recently
u ten year ago were uniiKlderud
leagues beyond the doiirfliu
cuiuo wheat weij;Minr 0l' pounds
to the bushel and !H bushels to
the aero, potatoca weighing over
.1 )ounda tMii'h, squashes over 8
fuel long, alfulfa making 5 hum
to the acre; and corn that would
make the average corn holt
furraor envious and aad.
Five targe building were re
quired to furuUh aufllclent room
for tho exhibits which poured in
not only from states and
countlei, but from individual
farmers. Many thousand dol
lars, much farm machinery, and
several cups were swarded as
prizes the various exhibitors.
Hut these awards and prize
were merely symbols badges
of recognition. The real win
ners, as shown by tbe Congress,
were the two nation, Canada and
tho United Statos winners in
that the food problem was being
solved within tholr borders, and
winners In the possession of a
rural population .with the spirit
to brave unfriendly natural con
diilons and the brains to coquor
tbem.
Tho American farmer, since
first he stretched bis band out
to McCormick for his reaper, has
stood apart from other nations
bocauso of bis progressiveness.
He has stood apart, also, because
of bis Ingratitude to the soil up--on
which ho depended. Land
which In England or France has
been yielding bountifully for a
thousand years would have been
hopelessly dopleted in a gener
ation by the average methods fol
lowed in this country.
The Dry Farming Congress,
from the speachos of the Mas
trous agriculturists who were
there, to tho long rows of soil
products, was an indirect but
deadly protest against American
carelessness In farm methods.
It was shown at Tulsa that to a
man who is familiar with the
general farming from Florida to
the Dakotas, dry farming Is
nothing more nor less than ap
plying, to land which suiters
from lack of rain, principles
which produce the best results
when applied to land enjoying
plonty of. rain.
It was a nation wide lesson on
good farming. It proved tliut
the successful rul s of good
farming were the good rules of
successful farming. Tho pioneer
settlers on practically desert
land were left to demonstrate by
practical results whut farm
journals, government schools,
and tho service bureaus of the
tig machine companies have
tried to touch, that the funda
mentals of farming are deeper
plowing, bettor cultivation, more
animal fertilizer, and better seed
selection. It was claimed by
those who had experimented for
years that in breaking up the
sod it is more profitable to turn
It under from 10 to 12 inches
than from 4 to S, which is the
popular depth. By actual experi
ment between two acres in the
-same field, land treated by deep
tillage yielded $100 more in pro
duce in 10 years than a similar
acre plowed only 6 Inches. In
another case in bringing out the
value of humus as a fnctor in in
creasing the water holding
power of soils, it was found that
. In 100 pounds of ordinary sandy
-. soil there was 19 pounds of water,
while on the other hand, the
well tilled with humus, con
same amount of garden soil,
talnod M pounds of wator, or
nearly three times as much. IJy
deep plowing before the rains,
followed by good cultivation to
save the stored water, the
amount of wator available for
plants can bo Increased nearly
fifty per cent. With such an In
crease there should never, even
la the driest sections, be such a
scarcity of water as to causes
loss of the crop The best in
surance against drouth next sum
mer is deep plowing this winter
and early spring. Turn tho land,
if possible, to a depth of at least
eight inches, and then follow
this plowing with some imple
ment In each furrow that will stir
the soil at least another four or
sis Inches. With such prepar
ation before tho rains come, such
soil should and will absorb
onough water to insure a crop
next summer.
Another significant event
which characterizes the Tulsa
Congress was the assembling of
the third annual meeting of the
International Congress of Farm
women. It wasoneof tbostrong
est and best organized women's
gatherings tho county has evar
seen. It was In session five
days and many women of
national note were present and
addressed the delegates on mat
ters of especial interest to tbe
housewives on the farm. The
keynote of this event was con
tained in an address by Mrs.
Hello v'D tlarbert, Manzanola,
Colorado, who prezonted the
life'f duties of the home-building
mother In a brilliant speech
characterized by one of her audi
tors ss almost pathetic in Its
challenge and almost challeng
ing in its pathos." She said:
"Tho International Congress
of Farm Women, organized at
Colorado Springs In October,
1011, Is a moman's movement
toward the goal of social justice.
"The world has absolutely
failed to appreciate the economic
value of the farmer's wife, and
ho has now stopped upon the
Btage of social progress and of
fered to help In the solution of
the world's great problems.
Her experience as the keepor of
the rural home from which so
many great men of all nations
have come, her knowledge of tbe
burdens and care which have
driven oo many thousands of her
sisters from the farm to take
refuge in the cities, and her un
selfish desire to be of real service
to humanity, have prompted this
organization. Results most im
portant to the future of all na
tions aro sure to follow.
"It Is the beginning of a new
era in country lifo. There is no
doubt as to the responsibility for
tho wholesale movement toward
the city during the past decade,
Women . become tired of the
drudgery caused by lock of con
venience in the rural homes, but
which are furnished in the cities.
In the city she has water in the
house, fuel for cooking, lights,
and often heat. The sewerage
problem Is solved and there are
a thousand other conveniences
which she could not have under
present existing ctrcumstances
in the rural communities. She
becomes tired of the monotony
and, isolation she has to endure
and naturally turns to the city as
a means of relief.
"Farm women have hitherto
labored and died as Individuals.
They have never been recognized
as a class or factor in the world's
work. Other groat industries
have always had ample consider
ation at the hands of the govern
ment, the state and by the stu
dent of social prob'ems; so have
the wage earners; but sho who
has given to the world it's re
cruits of brain aud brawn has
had not fitting recognition.
"Much has been said of late
about the popularity of the 'Back
to the Farm' movement on' ac
count of modern methods of soil
tillage, up-to-date machinery and
a better knowledge of farm man
agement; but practically nothing
has been said In regard to power
for household use, best methods
of securing a plentiful water sup
ply for the house, the most sani
tary methods of disposing of
sewerage, and up to date meth
ods of furnishing light and beat
for the farm borne.
Portland Stock Market
North Portland, Or. Nov. 6, 1913
The cattle market litis week
remains about unchanged, the re
ceipts have not been quite so
heavy, mostly medium to good
stuff, and not very many loads of
extra prime beef. Tbe bulk of
the steers sold at (7 5 for prime
tuff, others from 10.50 to 17,
cows und heifers from fO to 10.75.
On Wednesday thero were indi
cations of a slight strengthening
in tho cattle market, and today
we sold six carloads of steers
which went over the scales at
17.50. There is a good demand
for extra prime heavy beef
steors. Bulls are in good de
maud, selling from (5 to $5.75,
with a few odd sales as blgb as
5.
Prospects are that the market
will remain steady around pres
ent prices for some weeks yet
Receipts of hogs have been of
fair volume, the demand good.
and prices have remained steady,
top hogs selling around (8.25 to
18.00, and there seems to be
every prospect of a steady
market for the next few days.
The sheep and lamb market
continues strong, prime yearling
wethers are selling from 11.05 to
f t. 65, ewes $3.75 to $4. Lambs
are very scarce and supplies not
equal to the demand, best lambs
selling around 15.75.
