And »he can't understand the thing* That trouble and perplex The mind* of even men like him That ’» voted all hi* life— A n' bein' weak, »he couldn’t staud The governmental strife. I »ay* to Pa: “ Pa, you're so strong. A n ’ know so many things— ( A n ’ Pa. he »milej. He didn't know My compliment had strings). But while you're sittin' talkin' to The men down at the store, Why, Ms. she's o»i her hands an' kuees A scrubbin ' up the floor. “ She does your washiu', makes your shirts, ' A n ' works hard all day long, A n ’ then she goes to nieetin ’ when There’s talk of rightin’ wrong Th a t’s goin ’ on at the school house. Or when butchers sell bad meat— An ’ she has your supper ready here When you come home to eat.” My Pa, he says 1 talk too mueh. A n ’ I'should hold my tongue— The reason I can’t understand Is ’eause, he says, I m young.

ELLOW citizens of these .»rent United States of America, if you were asked who has the greatest agricultural exhibit at the Panama Pacific Exposition, what would your answer bet You know that the primary purpose of the fair is to boost the agricultural interests of California. But if you answered “ California’ ’ you would lie mistaken. You know that Oregon will be helped by the fair probably next in pro portion to California. You know that Oregon nas great agricultural possibili ties. You know that the famous, fer tile, fruitful Willamette is known the world over. You know that great grain crop« are raised in Eastern Oregon. Would you answer that Oregon was the one to have the greatest agricultural exhibit at Han Francisco? You would be mistaken if you made sueh an an swsr. The United States is one of the great est agricultural countries in the world. At the present moment it is feeding the world. This fair is given in the United States to boost the United States. Would you say that the greatest agri cultural exhibit there was from some part of the United States? You would be mistaken if you made such an an swer. The greatest agricultural exhibit at the San Francisco Exposition is not from the United States but from our sister of the snows, the Dominion of Canada. Canada, which has already secured thousands of our best farmers, has come to OUR fair, designed to boost OUK game, and has made an exhibit th it is going to get thousands more of our farmers. G • * • Hll.K visiting a commercial club i l l in Eastern Oregon last year the ^ ™ editor of The Sentinel was at tracted by a number of advertising cir eulars displayed on a table in the lobby of the club. The circular announced that on that evening at a local show bouse, for the modest price o f 10 cents, there would be shown 3500 feet of mo tion pictures, accompanied by a lecture on “ The Canadian Pacific Railway, the Greatest Transportation System of the World.” A paragraph of the circular ivaa as follows: The Canadian Pacific Railway sells land in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba at low prices on 20 years’ •ime at 0 per cent. Ilians $2000 to set tiers on 20 years’ time at fl per cent for physical improvement on the land you purchase. You pay only one nickel on the dollar down, on land and loan. Isn’t it a chance for a man to get a start? Come and hear about it— come end see how farming is carried on in Alberta and with what results. You have a million brother Americans un there. Here was a commercial club in one of the greatest wheat growing sections of the United States. It was kept up for the purpose of boosting that particular section o f country. Yet here was a Canadian railwuy advertising its game in quarters kept up partly for the pur pose of besting that game and offer- i ing inducements to settlers supe -ior to those offered in the United States. • • • the line of leu resistance, mm when more ean be muue by selling land than by working it it is perfectly evident that it will not be worked as it should b«. Depressed times, however, hsve checked sales aud have squeezed the water out of prices. Finding that they are no longer able to sell immediately at a good profit, men who bought farm land for speculative purposes arc turn ing their attention to farming it aud are becoming permanent home makers instead of merely temporary owners. This is as it should be. The ideal situation in the Willamette Valley, as elsewhere, is a stable stale of values based upon the productive ca pacify of the laud under intelligent management. Under such a system per manent results are possible. As greater attention ia devoted to it the businea* of farming will become more profitable and more people will be attracted to it. Those who buy land will buy it for homes instead of buying aa an invest ment to be held until a higher price is offered, and increases in price wiill be justified only by increase of productive power.
