FARMERS NEED
: GOOD HELPMEETS
Success Depends Up
on Good Wives. ?
PRACTICAL FITNESS NEEDED
Sensible Advice to Those who
Will Awaken to the Oppor
. tunities now Presented.
The following sensible editor
; ial in the Oregonian is one full
of pertinent suggestions, and if
ithe advice should be followed
' there will be more contentment,
' more happiness and more suc
"cess in the lives of those who
are getting back to the soil:
i ; It has become a habit with
I advisors of young men, and no
one can find fault with the habit,
to advise a return to the soil,
I both as a means of establishing
i a competency for old age and
for fostering a spirit of independ
ence among workers and their
' families. So far so good. But
:is it not true that on the farm
above all places, a man needs a
helpmeet if 'he would succeed?
fAnd if young men are to go back
to the soil equipped with know
: ledge that will make it produc
tive, and working it a pleasure,
is it not the part of -wisdom to
advise young women along the
same lines and instruct them in
the duties of farmers' wives? A
.house in, the city, elegantly fit
- ted up ,with wedding presents
and other articles that cost the
young couple nothing, is the
hope of thousands of young wo
men of today who dream dreams
of matrimony. If these young
women, many of whom are the
daughters of laboring men
trades-people or small capitalists,
whose fortunes are generally at
a low ebb, could be induced to
forego the vapid thing they call
society, quit taking music les
eons and enter seriously upon a
course in domestic science, go
ing, if necessary for that pur
pose, to the Agricultural College,
or to farmhouses of the better
class and engaging as kitchen,
chamber and garden helpers,
they would in a year or two be
fitted to take places as genuine
helpmeets of the army of young
men who are by; sage advice
"going back to the soil."
At the risk of being called old
fashioned and grumpy, the Ore
gonian here takes occasion to
say that it is time that young
women of the middle class in
cities were abeing taught that
they have & place in the world
of work and of duty outside of
that which provides them with
money wherewith to buy cloth-!
ing that is not suitable to their
station in life. They
ted for' farmers'. wives, of coarse,
since they know nothing of do
mestic duty; equally,' of course,
they are not fitted for country
life (though they are frequently p
neara to. say i that they despise -it),
because they have never had
opportunity or been taught to
take interest in growing things, -vegetable
and animal.- But if
they will awake to the opportu
nity that will be presented , if '.
youg men take the advice so i
earnestly given to go' back to the !
soil, cultivate, an interest in the
things of Nature, learn some
thing of her ways, take practical
lessons ' in housekeeping and
cookery, and if possible take a
short course in domestic science
at the State Agricultural College,
they . will most likely find a
sphere in life that is conducive
to happiness and to the best in
terests of the race, by becoming
helpmeets in- the true sense ot
the word to vigorous, intelligent
young farmers. J

A Poor Relation" To-Night.
, Tonight . at the opera house,
Lee Willard and a capable com
pany of players will present Sol.
Smith Russell's famous play "A
Poor Relation." It is a tale that
tugs at the heart strings, that
of the rural genius whose first
thought was for I others when
success crowned his grim strug
gles with poverty for recognition
of his invention. His simple
faith in humanity, and his ten
der solicitude for the poor with
whom he shared his good and
bad fortunes, are all convinc
ingly portrayed. Altogether, "A
Poor Relation" is highly enter
taining and it points a good
moral. Mr. Willard recently
gave this production at the Heil-
lg theatre in Partland where it
was well received. Keserved
seats now , selling. Prices 35.
