They thought the Soil Superb. They Learned that Anything could be Grown. The Wheat Raise could be Bigger In Oregon, while Fruits Qrew as If the Lord had Made Oregon Specially for Fruits. The Land seemed Just Made for Vegetables. They thought it Peculiar that Peo ple should Chortle with Glee, par ticularly the big Corporations. Soon they Knew Why. It was be cause these farmers were to Pay All the Taxes. Missourian Is "Shown." The Missourian found this out. He was Shown. In Oregon he learned the Single Taxers ruled. Men without Land made those who Owned Land pay All the Taxes. Taxes on Farm Lands were High, so High that It did not Matter that the Improvements Es caped. Taxes on City Ixits were so Great that It did not seem as If the Lot Owner could hold Body and Soul together after Paying the Tax. Once all Property Owners divided the Taxation. Now the Man with [.and had to pay All. I "This Is what will happen to Us,” said the Missouri Farmer tn this Fa- I bio. “ We shall Spend our Ten Thou sand Dollars for Farms. Some Day our Crops May Fall. If we do not | Pay our Taxes, as Some do not Pay their Taxes now, our Farms will be | seized by the State. Thus every year ! more Farms will be seized by the State and the Taxes grow higher for the rest. "For the State must have Money. "In a Few Years we should alt lose our Land. The State would be the great Land Owner. We should Pay Rent to the State. Then the land in Oregon would become Poor for a Ten ant never cares what he does to the Owner's Property. We should Just Get Enough to Eat after Paying the Rent. For me, I am Done. I shall go back to Missouri, even If I have to brave Storms and Floods.” Now Capital Is Timid. Capital Is Nervous. And those 100 Farmers were each Scared that the State of Oregon was after their Wads. So they Fled And. Then They Fled. The New Yorker would rather Work on Poor Soil than not own hts Farm and Pay Rent to the State. The Kan sail thought Grasshoppers were not so Real a Woe as Single Tax. The Mntne Farmer bought more Dynamite and said that Stones were Nothing if a Man could Own his Own Land 1 can Improve My Farm, said the Man from Nebraska, but Then I shall Own It. i‘ven R 1 hftvo ttn Occasional Sandstorm.

A Raging Flood had wasted the Lands of the Louisianian and he, too, had decided on a Change. Cyclones It was that Worried the Farmer from Oklahoma and the Nebraskan Never Could Stand a Sandstorm. The Man from Maine wus Tired to Death from Dynamiting the Little Rocks he said were alt over his Farm. Impover ished Soil was the Pet Trouble of Him from N*w York.
