Entered as second-class matter Feb
11, 1921, at the postofflce at Board
man, Ore., under act of Mar. 3, 1879
A decision recently rendered by the
Supreme Court of New York will
have a far reaching influence upon
the freedom of the press.
The Buffalo Evening News publish
ed matter which the counsel of that
city alleged annoyed and harassed
certain officials. The city counsel
moved for an order directing editors
of l he paper to appear and answer
regarding articles concerning certain
conditions of the city.
Justice Marcus refused the wit,
saying: 'I am strongly impressed
with the view that it would be un
wise to heckle and anoy the press.
If every article subjected them to an
examination that would harrass and
annoy them, whenever the subject
matter was unpleasent by way of
criticism of officials, the public would
lose much, even recognlzeng the llcen
Be oftentimes used."
The press is not to be denied the
right of criticizing public officials. A
community can have no better secur
ity than a newspeper which watches
the acts of public officers and holds
them strictly accountable for all they
do.
The newspapers guard our liberties
and protect our pocketbooks. The
public owes them a great deal and
the courts, interperting the Constitu
tion, do well to recognize this fact.

IF THINGS SEEM DULL
JUST KEEP ON PADDLING
Here's an old one from the Arl
ington Bulletin, but it will bear re
peating: One night, two frogs fell into a
bucket of cream. They paddled con
tinuously for some time in a vain ef
fort to get out. At last one frog
said to his companion in distress,
"There is no use to keep on paddl
ing.' 'With this he ceased his labors
Immediately sank and was drowned.
The other frog, notwithstanding
his discouragement kept on paddling.
In fact he paddled all night and
when morning dawned he was sur
prised to find that he was sitting on
an island of butter. His paddling
had churned the cream to butter.
There was also a good supply of flies
on the island for breakfast.
The moral of this little yarn is that
when things seem dull, keep on paddling-
finally the butter 'will come'.

ORHOON GRAY WINTER OAT
MAKES PRE.M1KR OATMEAL
The Oregon gray winter oat as
milled by a number of Oregon mil
lers is unexcelled for rolled oats, de
clares George R. Hyslop, chief of
farm crops, O. A. C. experiment sta
tion. The demand for it is increas
ing and the price paid is the best in
western Oregon, but millers aro
growing concerned for a supply that
will meet the demand with oats of the
former high quality.
"When eating your rolled oats
either fresh or cooked, have you
sometimes noticed a small, black ker
nel with an off flavor?" asks Prof
essor Hyslop. "You thought it was
a black oat. but it wasn't. It was
buck cheat, a weed that has become
badly mixed with some lots of gray
oats.'
This is a hardy plant that stands
the coid and wet better than the oats.
And if present will develop a crop
where the oats may have failed. This
may take place to the extent that
some persons think the oat has be
come cheat, altho this cannot be the
fart.
The search for enough good seed
to keep the supply going has two
phases extension service certification!
of fields meeting the requirements,
and experiment station analysis and
report of samples sent in by growers !
The growers who cannot get certified
seed are invited to send in fair samp
leg to the college seed laboratory and
they will be told which of the var
ious lota is besi.
This seed testing Is free to grow
ers and other states of the districts
and is a means of discovering the
best lots for aed. Millers and deal
ers as well as farmers are eager to
see the supply of mill quality oats
kept up.
sold at a heavy loss to the growers.
Business men are beginning to real
ize that unless farmers receive more
than cost of production for their hay
they are in no position to reduce pres
ent indebtedness.
There are, however, ma"ny growers
who are strong for the association
FOR ALL THEIR NEIGHBORS, but
hope to keep out and reap some of
the benefits without joining. Labor
unions have for years faced this sit
uation. This group will certainly
keep the organization committee on
ihe "anxious seat" for some time
yet. The only certain cure for these
cases is public sentiment. - North
