THE FARMER FE EDS THEM ALU
The politician talks and talks,
The actor plays his part, T
The soldier glitters on parade, , T
The goldsmith piles nis art;
The scientist pursues hlB germs
' O'er this terrestrial ball.
The sailor navigates his Bhlp,
But the farmer feeds them all.
The preaoher pounds the pulpit deBk,
The broker reads the tape,
The tailor cuts and sews his cloth
To fit the .human shape;
The dame of fashion drosscd In silk
Goes forth to dine or call.
Or drive, or dunce, or promenade,
But the farmer feeds them all.
The workman wields his shining tools,
The merchant shows his wares,
. The aeronaut above the clouds
A dizzy Journey dares:
But art and sclenco soon would fade,
And commerce dead would fall,
If the farmer ceased to reap and sow,
For the farmer feeds tbem all.

Why should the Philadelphia host of a German princess get

Lieutenant-Governor Chanler deserves credit for not trying
to dodge the race track gambling question, though his frankly
telling the gamblers that they need expect no favors from him
may cost him many votes. It's better to be right than to hold
any old office.
A number of contractors are figuring on the new postoffice
plans and all of them are prepared to go right to work this fall
in case they land the contract. With the foundation completed
during the winter, Eugene should have a finisnea leaerm
building within a year.
Heavv rains throughout the East are interfering with the

.A PROPOSED LOGGING CONGRESS
' The Timberman, published at Portland, believes that the
logging industry of the Pacino Coast States couitt most proma
bly follow in the well-worn footsteps of the other large branches
of an important industry and form an association for mutual,
onnini onH himinesa benefits. The losrtrinir business of the Pa-
m. Onnt whether conducted bv independent operators or by
the millB themselves, has reached a stage of development that is
certainly worthy of any effort which can be made to establish
n. clearing house, as it were, for the exchange of ideas, systems
and general conduct of logging operations. Logging is the ini
tial branch of the industry. It must of necessity anticipate ana
keep in advance of the lumber output. Logging is an engineering
science. The transportation of heavy loads, often over rough
ground, with inadequate and tomporary appliances, involves the
expenditure of more real brain effort and high executive talent,
to produce logs profitably, than any other branch, of the industry.
The cost of the logs is the potent and determining factor in the
success or failure of any lumber enterprise. Despite this fact
there has been no effort made to bring together the men in the
difforent sections for an interchange of ideas, outlining splendid
results which have been obtained by different individuals and
systems. There is no patent on intelligence. Each can learn from
thfl nt.her..
The Timberman believes that each year a logging congress
should be held in different sections of the country, in order to fa
miliarize ourselves with the different conditions to be encoun
tered, and would suggest that the first congress of logging be
hold at Seattle next year during tne racuic-AiasKa-xuKon x.xpo
nHion. ' '
Tho Timborman bolioves that the time is ripe for initiating a
miwnmont lnokinir to a permanent annual losrging congress along
the lino suggested, and from the unqualified endorsement and
proffered assistance there is every reason to pciieve mat tne
annual logging congress will be a success ana Decome a perma
nAnt and important factor in assisting to place the logging busi
ness on a plane commensurate with the important relation it
bears to the lumber business.

Following out a statement made a year ago at the meeting
of the National Wool Growers' Association in Salt Lake City,
Clifford Pinchot, forester, and A. F. Potter, assistant forester in
rhnrirA nt thn hrnnch of orazincr in the United States forest re
serve, have just announced a reduction of 10 to 15 per cent in
the rates for sheop grazing on the Natipnal forests of the West.
This ireneral reduction in the schedule of grazing rtites will take
effect for the coming season of 1009. The changes in market
which have made the sheen business less profitable
this past year, especially the greatly reduced prices for wool and
tho depreciation, in the value or nuuton, mane me announcement
of great intcfest not only to those who are interested in the
qhnnn h,minnnfi. but to the men of every allied industry. In 1907,
when the prmises for a reduced schedule were made it was
with thn understanding between the stockmen and the forest
service that the grasing rates would not be ohanged for minor
fluctuations in the market wnicn wouia naiuraiiy occur irom
year to year, but would apply only in case of radical or unusual
changes. w

Did you ever stop to think that a printing office like that of
the Eugene Guard is one of the largest labor-employing indus
tries in the city, only excoodod by various branches of the milling
industry? The Guard s regular payroll is not less man
a month and it is all spent at home among businessmen, some
of whom will order stationery from Enstegi raises if they can
save a few cents on a big on'r. Why should such men object so
strenuously to the mail order unless?
