GUERItSEYS LEAD
TO FARMER CLASS
, - Br K. C Stewart
The railroad situation - with It Impending-
strike is Uvlay occupying al
most the entire attention of the public to
general.' It la of even mora Importance
t the farmer than any one else that aa
efficient and continuous system of trans
portation be maintained. The geographic
line of commodity production have bean
built up upon the presumption that pres
ent transportation facilities would be
maintained and in time be tor systems In
stalled. , Is K any wonder then that a
general nation-wide depression should
coma when ' transportation rates . are
raised to a figure which makes it im
possible to move the crops to the market
for which they were destined?.
BLAME OTHER FELLOW ,;'
r Today wt have a beautiful merry go
'round, -Everyone blame the other fel
low. . , ; , ,. : .
. The rise in- transportation rate has
not meant a corresponding' Increase In
profits to. the railroads. . sr with the
higher-rates, farm commodities ceased
, to move to distant markets. Citrus fruits
went to waste in Florida sad California.
Hay and many other commodities all
ever the country have been wasted for
the simple reason that it was cheaper
to leave the crop unharvested than" it
was to transport it at a loss. This has
all caused ' shortages, which in turn
meant a higher price to the consumers.
Included among them, being the railroad
employes. ' (Sv
Everyone has stool a loss in the recent
. depression and the demand of the labo
villous that the railroads make a de
crease in rates corresponding- to a de-
; crease in salaries seems te be a Jaet one.
CAUGHT BOTH WATS . !
- The farmer, paying as be does, trans-
portatloa costs both wayg. jr he must
ay the freight rates on what he sells as
'yell as on what he buys, is the hardest
Jiit of -anyone. He is naturally anxious
that some adjustment be made to lower
the cost of, transportation. The rait
roads are trying- to defend their position
by several means. They are even carry
ing pa a large campaign of advertising
to try. to Juetlfy, themsolveg InL the eyes
of the farmer. j
No one realises better than the farmer
that; the very cost of this advertising
-cornea not from the railroad but from
She profits that they have, or must make,
from the shipper, and the farmer is the
.principal shipper of the country,
t. High fretght rates may be due in part
.to high wage scales. But In the writer's
' opinion, It Is more nearly the direct re
sult of inefficient management, paralell-
tag of rival roads and the failure to in-
, stall money and time-saving systems.
BIGHTS AH SEIZED ; ,
Rights of ways were gained and tracks
were built by railroad promoters not for
the profits they would make In the first
few years of Operation, but In order to
be able to hold these right of ways until
the country bad been developed to a
point where lb railroads could be made
to pay. - f ' ; : . :,
Yet, tie railroad are demanding that
they be allowed a fair rate of. Interest
upon the increased valuation of their
properties,, even. before the country has
hardly started to develop along their 1m-
. raenee trackage. The railroad companies
and the railroad employee must remem-
ber that every raise in rate and every
delay to service Is gradually but surely
losing for them their business.
V While ther are holdln no rataa and
, fighting over wage scales, other systems
; of transportation are rapidly being, de
veloped. With railroads losing business
I right along to motor vehicle and water
t ran portation, it will not be long until
- 'their tonnage win be so depleted that
, some of the railroads will have to go out
'Of business, This in torn will eliminate
: the positions held by the union men.
The farmer Is vitally Interested In the
.success of the railroad.

experiments are: i N 1
Th breeding of the , heavy-shearing
type of , Bambouillet sheep with a de
sirable mutton form. ' '
A study of the different types of cross
bred sheep' for the purpose of pro
ducing: the type i best suited to the
Western ranges. ---
A comparative study of different
methods of utilizing range land for sheep
raising," and different methods of sup
plying water on . dry ranges.
The production of crops on arid tanas

The Columbia sheep have been developed
at the station from the foundation.

its geheral adaptability to Western
ranges, but the Columbia has evidenced
signs of greater robustness ana larger
