WHERE LIES THE FAULT.
It is not altogether the fault of
the consuming public that It some-

of the home farm. Whenever the
goods are presented in a palatable.11 18 one 01 lDe 6reHl mines 01 methe good roads bureau, are now in-
shape, which means grown right and
marketed right, there is no trouble
about their sale. A local merchant
tells the tale when he says that qn
preTlon year8 be nad difficulty in
lening even three or four crates of
California grown tomatoes
during
the early part of the season when
the prices were high, but that this
yenr he has already disposed of 700
pounds of home-srown tomatoes at
prices ranging from ten to twenty
(cents per pound, and that other pro-
!Pr hnv rt,in likwie there helnir
quality was right.
Yet one of thesf snxers who has
found ready sale for fancy tomatoes
.at fancy prices has on display upon

ruined because thev were neither
grown nor marketed right. The

morsel, but there are on display and

j these squashes there was a Quantity
of map beans that a week ago
would hare been juit right for the
table, but now they are tough and
1 uneatable, tone wormy and other
dirty from the mud thrown upon
them during the heavy rain of l.at
week. The housewife who purcbaaes
this manner of truck after having
seen it has only herself to blame, but
sometimes it may be sent on a tele
phoned order, and through its use
a dinner spoiled.
The Rogue valley can and does
grow the best garden vegetables in
the world, and It is no fault of the
country if squashes snd beans and
cabbages are spoiled by wrong cul
tural methods or later In the mar
keting. Neither Is it the fault of
the housewife if she refuses to Jeop
ardize matrimonial happiness by the
purchase of unpalatable vegetables,
or of the merchant If he bays the
truck where he can get goods that
suit his trade.
The remedy to the condition lies
in education, and education can
come largely through the grower
himself, though the public market
would be the best school for the
purpose. Here the grower who
brought in his produce In the most
attractive form would meet with the
most ready and profitable sale, and
gradually the other fellow would
'earQ tnBt t0 dispose of his wares
cash to the merchant tor his goods.
