DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
Those wheat farmers in the Palouse
-who have been claiming, for years,
that diversified farming would not
pay, are readjusting their views.
The Whitman county correspondent
of iho Spokesmau-Review says:
'The diversified farmer has great
cause for thankfulness this year.
Cattle, bogs, sheep, horses, poultry,
eggs, butter, apples, and In fact
nearly every product of the farm,
with tnc exception of wheat, com
mands good prices In which there is
a big profit to the producer. It is
only the farmer who put bis all in
wheat who is not 4in it this year."
The sooner the wheat farmer of
the Palouse and the Big Bend faces
liis own case the better will it be for
bis welfare. Under normal or half
way normal conditions we shall see
no more dollar wheat in eastern
Washington. Nothing short of an
extraordinary famine can bring back
the old price. In all probability, the
price of wheat for the next ten years
will not average above 40 cents per
bushel. Taking the world over, too
many farmers are growing wheat for
the price to swing back to the old
Tange. We must sell our surplus in
England and Europe, and it comes
in direct competition there with the
wheat of Europe, of India, of Argcn
tina. A few years more and it will
have the competition of the wheat-
growers of Siberia.
The products of diversified farm
ing find a homo market. The
cities of Washington are enormous
and growing consumers. The lum
ber camp3 produce nothing but
lumber and shingles. The mining
camps of Washington, Montana,
Idaho, British Columbia and Oregon
produce nothing but ores.
are now nearly 100,000 men
Alaska, and every pound of their
food, apart from a little game killed
in the hills and a few fish caught in
the streams, is drawn from Washing
ton and Oregon. If diversified farm
ing will not pay in this state, it will
not be profitable anywhere.
But it will pay. It is paying.
The farmer who has diversified
products will live a great deal better
than the farmer who grows only
wheat, and he will have more money.
the wisdom of this selection. Gen
oral Wood has seemed to be able to
grasp the situation in Cuba better
than nnv other umn there who has
been vested with authority, nnd the
administration of affairs could not
be placed in safer hands. Ho 1ms re
established government in Santiago,
cleanse:! the city, set the people at
work, and maintained law nnd order
throughout the whole district under
bis control. Intelligence and firm
ness with a largo amount of common
sense have worked great changes in
eastern Cuba, and the result of
Wood's efforts there havo provo.l
that he is well qualified to assume
the responsibilities of governor of
the entire island.
Somebody's toes may be stepped
on and a few of tho officers of higher
rank may feel aggrieved, but senti
mental considerations of this sort
should not prevent the government
from availing itself of the services of
a man so peculiarly well fitted for
the place as General Wood is. Review.
