A Plain Talk on Things that are
Fast Coming.
Some crops are raised at a
profit and others at a loss. It de
pends on the price and the price
depends on the system of mar
keting. Light crops as a rule, bring
more profit to the farmer than
the bumper ones.
Agricultural Colleges leach us
how to raise big crops and why
don't they teach how to sell these
big crops at a profit? It is strange
but true that the smaller crops
bring the most money and the
cause must be that the big crops
are not marketed with any sys
tem. Just to illustrate; in 1912 there
were .250,000 cattle less on the
Kansas City market than in 1911
yet they brought $3,000000 more.
The big crop of 1912 has lost
millions of dollars to the Americ
an farmer.
Indiana had a big crop of on
ions of excellent quality and
could not be harvested at a price
as low as the market offered.
They will rot where they grow.
At Stockton, California, the on
ion growers threw part of their
crop into the San Joaquin river
as it was impossible to sell them
at any price. They have given six
car loads to the poor of eastern
cities. There is something terrib
ly wrong when big crops drive the
farmer from his farm with low
prices and the city laborer is
pauperized with high prices. Take
the eight leading grain crops,
with potatoes for the last four
years : .

The 1912, crop was 1,082,407,
000 bu. greater than the 1909
crop and worth 240,671,000 less,
join the Farmers' Society of
Equity and use their plan to make
the big crops and get profitable
prices.
Mr. R. A. Soulhworth, our or
ganizer in tho adjoining Slate of
Idaho, says the farmers over
there have good crops of hay,
graia and potatoes, but cannot
live and pay their interest and
will have to move out.
We Jearn an awful lesson by
these figures and that is when
we raise a big crop. It would be
millions of dollars in our pock
ets to destroy about half of it if
we have to market it under the
old system.
And the consumer pays about
the same with a big crop as a
small one. Now that is robbing
Peter and Paul both.
Congress has passed the Lever
Agricultural Extension Bill by
this time no doubt, unless the
Senate ignores the report of its
committee. This bill proposes to
raise a fund in your county by
taxes to match a big state fund
to be raised by taxes equal to all
the county funds and all this to
equal a fund by the Nation Gov
ernment that you must raise by
indirect taxes' and all to be spent
on an army of experts to teach
you how to raise bigger crops.
How are we to defend our
selves if we don't kill Oregon's
part of this scheme with the ref
erendum? If our Agricultural
College will co-operate with us in
getting profitable prices for what
we know now to raise, they can
make themselves useful but to
put another heavy tax on us just
to ruin our markets and raise
crops to rot in the fields is agri
cultural suicide. If they try to
fasten this on us, here in Oregon,
we will have to do a little tinker
ing with the reverse lever of our
political machine.
I am more than pleased to an
nounce that one agricultural col
lege president has taken hold of
this marketing question with a
vim. President H. J. Waters of
the Kansas College has just had
rur sar ar ij
Sat
A
I is
a congress of farmers from al!
over the state. This college was a
great help to the farmers of that
state in marketing their big 1912
apple crop.
Even the railroads of Kansas
have taken hold of this question.
The "Frisco" system is going to
organize tho producers ajong its
lines. The Southern-system all
ready has four market agents ap
pointed one each in St. Louis,
Atlanta, Cincinnati and Washing
ton. These will help the organiz
ations of farmers to prevent such
disastrous results as we have just
had. with the crop of 1912.
The railroads make no money
on crops that rot in the fields.
The consumer seems to get but
very little benefit from these big
crops, as he has the freight and
express and many profits to pay,
lhat have been added to tho pro
duce after it has left the farm.
If the consumer could organize
and co-operate with the producer
a great deal of freight expense
could be saved. There is no need
of canned corn being shipped to
'New York from Mo., and to Mo.,
! from New York, and yet that is
1 what is being done by the can-t
neries; and there is no need of
Oregon ' shipping canned corn
here from. Mo., or Iowa. That ex
tra freight expense could be di
vided between the producer -and
consumerand give employment to
our own people and can our home
crop of corn.
The Clackamas shop keepers
have never worked to the interest
of the farmer but always obeyed
the dictates of the big fellows
higher up and this is the case all
over the country and if the farm
er is compelled to. find a shorter
route to the consumer the mer
chant is entitled to no consider
ation from the farmer or con
sumer. The country merchant is
doomed to be ground between the
mill stones of his own making.
The big fellows, like the harvester
trust, are going into the- retail
business and can Undersell and
over buy the little fellow. The or
ganized fanner is his best de
fender and customer. Are you go
ing to try to hold his tra.de?
The farmers of Clackamas
county fail to recognize Oregon
City as a market worthy of notice
and so far have refused to have
a representative stationed here. I
suppose it is on account of so
many hitching racks and other
conveniencenees and induce
ments offered by the town. This
does not injure the town in the
least and even should this feel
ing multiply to such an extent
that farmers completely ignore
the city it would do no harm or
the "Live Wires" would bo doing
something in the way of co-operation
with the farmer to the
farmers' financial benefit. You
can't dowj the sentiment, with
river water.
The organized farmers will be
compelled to own their own flour
mills, cracker factories, operate
their own slaughter houses and
curing plants, run their cream to
their co-operative creamery and
establish depots to distribute
their fruits and vegetables and
own all of the produce of the
farm until it reaches the hands
of the consumer. He will then en
joy the full benefit of what his
labor has produced and who will
be hurt? Just a few sap suckers
on American labor who are mak
ing billionaires of themselves and
paupers of all other people. This
is a lovely system we have now
for -a very few.
The Farmers Society of Equity
is very much like the Irish Agri
cultural Organization and known
as the I. A. O. S. in Ireland. They
started in 1889 with 50 members
and did a business of 4,500 lbs.
sterling. They have now 101,250
members and do a business of
2,750,000 lbs. They now have
their own banks and a member
must get the consent of his local
for a loan. The local is the secur
ity. They manufacture a great
deal of the produce of the farm
and take a deep interest in tho
legislation affecting agriculture.
MUST OWN MACHINE.
People Must Control Produotlon
and Distribution.
Editor Courier:
. Mr. Meredith, in his commun
ication of tho 6th., refers to the
various measures that have been
passed by Congress. Why we do
not get results is because the
other fellows own the machine
that manufactures and distrib
utes it to the people. If the people
owned the machine they would
not have to pay on the watered
stock. This proposed loan busi
ness is one of the biggest steals
from the farmers, that could be
pulled off. They propose to bond
the land. The bank that buys the
bonds will take them to the com
petroler of currency; he will say
they am good security; the treas
urer will issue 90 per cent of the
face in U. S. currency and in five
years the bank will own all of
the land of course. That was the
way the Panama canal was built.
By issuing and re-issuing and de
positing. As to the Society of
Equity, when you get so you have
any influence the courts will de
clare you a combination in re
straint of trade. The only way is
for tho people to own the means
of production and distribution
and run them in the interest of
all. the people and not for the
profit. ' -
, . M. "VV THOMAS.
The farmers of Denmark are
we'll organized. A laborer can buy
a farm there by paying only one
tenth down, the rest he gets
from the farmers' co-operative
bank at a low rate of interest.
They co-operate in buying as well
as selling. The co-operative sys
tem is now a part of the national
life o" Denmark.
The Willamette hop growers
have the opportunity of their lives
this year viz., market your crop
through the Farmers Society of
Equity. All the hops of the U. S.
except 31,500 bales in New York,
are produced on the Pacific slope.
How easy it would be to control
the price of hops of the world
right here in Oregon and get an
nually a good price with little
fluctuation. Organize.
The Country Gentleman of Oc
tober 5 says "peaches have rot
ted on the ground while consum
ers have paid,- two dollars per.
bu. for the same grade of fruit.
Market facilities and transporta
tion problems have been neglected
by the busy, producer." It also
says the fruiC truck and vegetable
farmers cannot secure better
rates on account of the railroads
owning the coastwise ships. The
readers of this paper can see
where the high cost of living
comes in on this deal and what
good will : the' Panama canal do
us under, the same conditions?
The Parcel Post law is a puz
zle. If you send to the book store
for a pound of books the postage
is eight cents but on a one pound
hammer it is only five.
The Slate of Maine claims to be
first to organize farmers on a
stale wide basis. They have 13
local exchanges and one state ex
change of $10,000 stock each.
They are going to grade their
produce better and expect better
prices. They expect to do away
with the dishonest middleman. E.
S. Crosby, of Balh, is president.

THE INTERNATIONAL BEN-HUR
To Be Staged In Portland at The
. Helllg Theatre
All the Oriental splendor of the
Indian Durbar which King George
V of England journeyed to Delhi
in India to take part in will be
brought to the doors of Portland
in Klaw & Erlanger's elaborate
nfiw nrnduction of "Ben Hur."
which inaugurates an engagement
of one week at the Heilig theatre
January 27. Never' before in the
history of the stage has there
been 'so much wealth expended on
the presentation oi a nisioricai
spectacle. Flashing jewels, daz
zling armor, magnificent robes,
superb draperies, the marvelous
rugs of the far East, the costly
furnishings of two thousand
years ago all these things, are'
combined and displayed in the
wonderful revival. Klaw and Er
langer, the owners of this most
wonderful piece of theatrical
property, have given it a produc
tion which in magnitude and
spectacular grandeur eclipses any
production shown up to date on
the American stage or in the the-,
atre of any other country. The
magnitude of the scenio settings
is of such a nature that there are
only a few. theatres with stages
large enough to accomodate the
equipment. Carpenters, electri
cians, and a horde of other work
men are now in possession of the
Heilig stage, getting ready for
this production, and when .- the
curtain does rise on the solemn
and beautiful scene in the desert
where the Wise len are waiting
for the signal, the Star o Belhle
hem, to point them the way to the
Messiah, the spectator will view
he spectacular achievement - of
American stagecraft. Klaw . &
Erlanger taxed the enormous re
sources of their theatrical plant
in every department in building
this new equipment. Their scen
ic artists and costumers, their
engineers and electricians worked
for one solid year in combination
and under the direction of artists
and historians, antiquarians and
scholars, to accomplish the seem
ingly impossible the effacement
of former memories of "Ben
Hur" productions. With this new
spectacle they have built for
themselves a monument as en
during as the name of Shakes
peare in the glories and beauties
of the new setting for the greatest
story the world has ever known:
"The Tale of the Christ."
During Ben-Hur season at the
Heilig matinees are scheduled for
Wednesday and Saturday. ;

AT
THE LEGISLATURE
Initial Week is Remarkable for
Work Accomplished.
225 BILLS ARE INTRODUCED
First Time in History Bills Introduced
First Day Senate Ahead of House
On Vetoed Measures Appropriation
Bills Large San Francisco Fair
May Get Only $250,000.
Salem. The first week's session of
the 27th legislative assembly was re
markable for the prompt manner in
which the lawmakers got down to ac
tual work and the great amount of
business accomplished is in strong
contrast to the time-marking proceed
ings of previous sessions. In the past
the first week has been frittered away
with nothing accomplished aside from
organization.
The presiding officers were practi
cally selected in advance, and the vote
on C. N. McArthur for speaker of the
house and Dan Malarkey for president
of the senate was a mere formality
that took up little time. Both presid
ing officers promptly announced their
committees and the business of legis
lation began the first day of the ses
sion, something heretofore unheard of.
For the first time in the history of
Oregon legislatures bills were intro
duced on the first day bf the sesBlon
and for the first time a bill was passed
during the first week of the session.
-, In the house 150 bills have been In
troduced the first weekas compared
with 30 bills at the preceding session,
and in the senate 75 bills have been
Introduced as against 36 bills last ses
sion a total of 225 bills.
No bills passed the house tho first
week last session and none the senate.
Four bills passed the house this week
and one the senate. ' The house al-'
ready has begun the consideration of
senate bills and the senate of house
bills. Last session the house did not
reach the consideration of senate bills
until the third week.
. Senate Overrides Several Vetoes
The senate is ahead of the house on
the vetoed measures of the last ses
sion, having acted on all of the bills
originating In that body, and only one
remains to be finally passed on. The
house has acted on only a few of its
vetoed bills.
In overruling the governor, the
members as a rule showed independ
ence, exhibiting neither a friendly nor
unfriendly spirit. The presiding offi
cers, who have the situation well in
hand, assert that In their opinion there
will be no effort on the part of this
legislative assembly to punish West
for his past activities In the legislative
domain, while on trie other band he
will receive the consideration due his
office if he does not attempt any en
croachments. Appropriation Bills Large
Appropriation bills making demands
on the state treasury of $1,078,700
have been Introduced. This Is a re
cord breaker, as it is the first time
that appropriation bills have ever been
introduced during the first week.
It seems to be a pretty well settled
fact that the appropriation for Panama-Pacific
Exposition will not get past
the $250,000 mark at the outside, al
j though some of the members are
DOOSling IOr $OUU,UUU. A bibuw uuuiuci
of them have settled on $200,000 as
the proper figures, while others are
even anxious to go lower than that.
Measures Passed Over Veto.
The measures passed over veto of
governor, In the senate were: ,
Forbidding spending where there is
no available appropriation. Creating
emergency board In time of need when
deficiency exists. Providing livestock
board; abolishing sheep inspector,
state and county veterinarians. Meth
od for dividing counties. Providing
fish hatchery at Spring Creek. In
creasing district attorney's salary in
Fifth Judicial district.
The vetoes sustained in the house
were:
A measure providing for second
choice in piimary elections. A meas
ure modifying law with regard to di
verting funds from ordained use.
. : May Abolish Purchasing Board.
The appropriation of $16,000 for the
biennial period, which has been intro
duced in connection with McArthur'S
bill establishing a state board of con
trol, Is really a substitute appropria
tion for a similar amount which Is
carried In the state purchasing board
appropriation bill, which was passed
vnrrs ago. In event the McArthur
bill goes through It will virtually do
uwuy with the state purchasing board
by placing the duties of that board
with the state board of control.
. The appropriation of $3000 a year
which is carried for the salary of the
governor's secretary Is practically a
duplicate of the present cost to the
Ftate for that office. Now he acts as
clerk of several boards of the various
Institutions. In event the board of
control bill goes through these duties
would be taken from blm and bis sal
ary dropped to' $1200 a year.
. While numerous acts for the repeal
lng of laws which provide for puUIo
offices and commUsions have been In
troduced, at the snme time, for the
first week of a session,' It Is fairly well
holding Its own as to bills creating
new pubMc otficcs.
One bill creating the Accident In
dustrial commission provides for three
commissioners.each to receive a salary
of $3600 a year, thus carrying provis
ion in this bill for salaries alone of
$10,800 a year, or $21,600 for a biennial
period. '
Another bill, which creates a chair
of logging engineering at the Oregon
agricultural college, carries with It an
appropriation of $65,000.
A bill has also been introduced to
provide for the examination of rural
credits in Europearf countries which
carries an appropriation for the : ex
penses of the investigators.
The bill providing for a BureaSi of
Mines and Geology is practically creat
ing a new bureau, although there la a
Bureau of Mines at the Oregon agri
cultural college which will be done
away with if this bill passes.
The bill creating a state board of
control really creates no new board,
but does away with a number of old
ones and centralizes and expands
somewhat the duties of the present
state board, which is made up of the
governor, secretary of state and state
treasurer.
Interstate Bridge Wins First Round
Multnomah won the first round in
Its battle for legislative consideration
of an Interstate bridge between Wash
ington and Oregon, jover the Columbia
river, when the senate Indorsed a
house resolution providing for a com
mittee to meet with the Washington
legislature.
The resolution provides that a com
mittee of two from the senate and
three from' the house shall meet with
a like committee from the Washing
ton legislature to confer on the ques
tion of the advisability of the bridge
and the ways and means to secure the
desired result.
Invited to View Hill's Good Roads ,
Governor West nnd all the members
of the legislature were Invited by Sam
uel Hill to be his guests at his expense
on a visit to Maryhlll, Wash., to In
spect his seven varieties of good roads.
It is thought favorable action will
be taken, as the time set for the visit
is either a Saturday or Sunday, when
the work of the session will not likely
be seriously affected. The legislature
la given the choice of two dates, Sat
urday, February 8, or Sunday, Febru
ary 9.
Changes in Oregon System Proposed
The initiative and referendum and
the corrupt practices act are being
made In prospect the subject of nu
merous amendatory acts at the pres
ent session, but according to Indica
tions the majority of the amendments
to these acts which have already been
proposed will meet with scant favor
from the committees to which they
have been referred.
Among the acts is one that provides
that no more than two constitutional
amendments nor five general laws
shall be submitted to the people at any
one election. Another bill proposes
that after an Initiative bill has receiv
ed so many adverse vote It shall not
go on the ballot again for a period of
six years. ,
The corrupt practices act is also the
subject of a large number of bills
which propose amendatory clauses.
Check on Campaign Expsnss Is Urged
With the view of confining the ex
penditure of money, either In behalf
or against any initiative measuVe, to
the publicity pamphlets and newspa
per advertising, Representative Blan
chard, of Josephine, introduced a bill
In the house which, If passed, will
revolutionize proceedings with rela
tion to initiating measures and wag
ing campaigns with relation to them.
The bill, In brief, provides that it
shall be unlawful for anyone tcexpend
money in promoting a measure or de
feating It, save in arguments In the
publicity pamphlets and In the news
papers. This cuts off all distribution
of private literature, and also al' other
moans of expenditures:
Board of Control for Institutions
A bill Introduced in the house by
Speaker McArthur provides for a state
board of control to take over ths man
agement and affairs of 11 stats Insti
tutions, some of which now have sep
arate governlag boards. ,
The institutions included are the
Oregon state hospital, the Eastern
Oregon Btate hospital, the state insti
tution for feeble minded, the Oregon
state training school, the Oregon state
penitentiary, the Oregon state school
for the blindthe Oregon state school
for the deaf, the Oregon tuberculosis
hospital, the Oregon state soldiers'
home and the oapltol and supreme
court buildings.
The board of control as provided for
in the bill Is to consist of the gover
nor, the secretary of state and the
state treasurer. The board Is to meet
on the first Monday of each month,
and all Its meetings are to be open to
the public. It shall be the duty of the
members of the board under the law
to visit each institution, with the ex
ception of the Eastern Oregon state
hospital and the Oregon state soldiers'
home at least once In every three
months, and to visit these Institutions
at least ones every ysar. ; .
