American Farmers Federation.
This will be America's most power
ful organization.
We could get along without the
doctors' trust
We might also pull through with
out a whiskey trust.
We will be a better and stronger
nation when we unite au me peopie
against poverty. I
When the farmers of America are
prosperous all other people are prosperous.
Just now there is too much tariff
between the producer ana consumer.
Tha mnrltpt. as . manipulated by
speculators, is too expensive for the
producer ana consumer,
I believe if the state would build
and operate, also control the mar

The law of supply and demand
a nam a tn ha iuHireH in our markets as
unconstitutional. There seems to be
onniiirh wealth nroduced every year
but our system fails to distribute it
among the people.
We donate to charity every year
and make no move to correct our dis
tributing machinery so as to make
alms-giving unnecessary,
The American farmer has always
ficial for 1,500 people now we have
one for every 180.
Our legislature here in uregon was
a splendid one to create commissions
with fat salaries, which are so use
less that Governor West has to dis
solve some of these little trusts, uooa
for West!
Science. Any classified knowledge
is called science unless it is Christian
Science and the doctors have failed to
classify that. They have given us a
scientific text book on hygiene and if
you possess a mathematical brain you
will find that nature did not make
hours enough in the day to take care
of your health with eight hours work
and eight hours sleep, and that is
where nature made the big mistake.
If scientific agriculture is not
enough t o put into practice there is
something wrong. We find those who
are preaching it are not practicing it
and those who are practicing it are
not preaching it It is a theory based
on chemistry, botany and other olo
gies, which make no provision for a
marketing machine that is not based
on science, but profits for organized
trusts.
A circular letter to the writer of
this article from the American Can
Co., with offices at 447 W-14th St, N.
Y., and can factories on the Pacific
coast, states that the U. S. govern
ment has brought suit against them
for violation of the Sherman Anti
Trust Law.
Now, Mr. Can Co., you charged me
almost three cents each for common
No. 2 tin cans and on your bill it
stated they were sanitary cans, which
they were not. Now this is not evi
dence for the defendant.
And, Mr. Can Co., you seem to have
produced the food end material ior in'timate relations with The San
clothes in plenty and has never failed, & nH v., mav or mai
but it is piled up in great piles some
where and people can't buy it. When
the food products get piled up in
great piles somewhere someone man
es the prices too high for the consu
mer. " The farmer is always hard up at
harvest time and h3 to sell to the
big piles at a low figure and let it
go up in the hands of the speculator.
The consumer would be better off
if the farmer could secure money at
a low rate of interest and market his
crop as the consumers require it
The farmer will fare better with
state markets than to be compelled
to ship produce to a set of organized
commission men that Uncle Sam has
to fine occassionally.
The tax levy for the city of Bend,
Ore., will be sixty-five dollars on
the thousand valuation. The people
down there will find out where state
aid comes from. (The same pocket.)
Conerressman Ouin has introduced
a bill, H. R. No. 9121, and would
create a Bureau of Markets. (We
have an office of markets now) and
would also compell commission men
to notify shiDPers. who bought his
produce, and what was paid, also
buyers name and address.

By the time this is printed we may
have a- new currency law. If it puts
more money in circulation at lower
rates of interest it will benefit the
farmers, but will damage the bank
ers' profits, but it is impossible to
make a law that will benefit the
bankers and lawyers at the same
time. The organized farmer should
get currency from our National gov
ernment as cheap as the organized
banker.

not be the same. And again it seems
(!. tha oanitnrv can is a new thing
with letters patent, which by this
alone would constitute a monopoly.
You are no responsible for our pat
ent laws but you seem to understand
hnw n rwni th Droilts irom mem.
And, Mr. Can Co., did you not buy
the right to the Johnson Capping Ma
chinn and refuse to sell a machine to
any canning factory but lease them
on terms of your own making?
And Mr. American Can Co., are not
some of your stockholders interested
in the American Tin riate '-'O., ana 1B

by the American Steel Trust? Now,
for all we know you may be as inno

are a trust we are very suspicious of
our courts trying to do anything for

I am the only writer predicting a
famine in this country under present
conditions. Missouri is a stock and
grain producing state and between
1890 and 1900 the state gained
700,000 people and lost 921,000 cat
tle because at the market price to
the farmer it does not pay to raise
and fatten them.
The Kansas banks report more
money than usual on deposit, because
the larmer is not buying and feed
ing cattle. Another thing is that far
mers are selling hay and grain and
not putting back in the soil the ni
trogen potash and phosphate so nec
essary for future crops. And thou

way from mankind to the open seas,
America is a new country but her
cultivated sou is getting poor.
If there never had been any law
yers in our legislature there would
be an awful howl now to send law
yers to make law since the courts
have undone about all the lawyers of
our last legislature did. But as it was
the lawyers themselves who have
made such a mess of both the legis
lature and courts it begins to look
like we might as well send some far
mers to our legislature. They could
not ao any worse.
Peter Radford, in Missourrl Valley

pends largely upon proper marketing,

Proper marketing depends on co
operation of the farmers themselves,

Secretary of Agriculture Houston
has made his annual report to Presi
dent Wilson. He aims to put the de
partment under 5 or 6 main heads.
He says tnat tne iarmer is not
served as he should be by existing fi
nancial arrangements. He is not con-'
tending for easier terms for the far
mer but he should be served at the
same rate as other classes, and if
you are good at deciphering diplo
matic language you may be able to
tell whether he means at two per
cent the same as bankers or twenty
per cent, the same as the squeezed
merchant.
I cannot tell by his language just
what he is trying to say.
The Kansas City Star of Dec, 10th,
has a two column cartoon picturing
the lazy farmer and on the same page
has an exhibit of figures representing
the wheat and corn of Kansas that
would tax the ability of an astrono
mer to comprehend.
This reminded me of a few years
ago when Kansas papers ran a car
toon showing farmers going to banks
and forcing cashiers to receive their
money on deposit and on another page
would appear an advertisement from
the banks offering 4 per cent for
time deposits. ..
Many farmers, by overworkrhave
their minds so mildewed by such rot
that they actually fail to see the fals
ity of it all. The politicials still have

At tha recent meetinsr of the State
Farmers Union at La Grande, the fol
lowing excellent plan for federation

Equity and Grange. This resolution
was offered by Brother A. R. Shuim-
way of Milton, uregon:
Resolved:
That we invite the Grange, the So

during the entire session of the Leg
islature and whenever canea togetner

Arucie i
It shall be the duty of this assoc
iation to watch all proposed legisla

ture and to make reports to the Exe

legislature that is considered detri
mental to tne state, mis Association
shall bring it before their executive
session, and if two-thirds of the mem
bers of three of the organizations de
cide that it shall be referred to the
people, the chairman of the Associat
ion shall immediately place it before
their several executive boards; if act
ed upon favorably by three of these
boards, it shall be referred to the
people. However, the action or two or
more ol the executive Doaras Bnau
have no power to bind the others to
assist.
Method of Referring Article III
When referring a measure every
local in the different organizations
shall be notified and taxed $5 for the
purpose of securing petitions and a
copy of the Referendum petition shall
be sent to the different locals.
II any local desires to secure nain
e:i on the petition instead of remit

How Much
Are Your Eyes Worth?
s
Everything as much as life itself.
But are you taking care of them ? Are
you reading carelessly by "any old
light"? Do you know that the best
reading light in the world recom
mended by scientists; used by men
who can afford the best is the soft
mellow light of an oil lamp such a
light as that from the
J0 Lamp
Ask your dealer to show you the
famous Rayo Table Lamp. No glare;
no nicker. Easy to light and care for.
