good many of the things not to do. We spent eight years
farming in the days of horses and mules, poor crops and
eheap wheat.
We like the county or we would have been gone a
long while ago. We may. God willing, be around for
quite a while yet.
So, you see, we are identified with the county’s his
tory and background. Both the paper and the publish
ers. We have been a part of its history and hope to be
a part of its future.
Natives who go on long cruises by car into other states
or other countries all come back happy to be home. Not
only do they say, “ There’s no place like home” hut
“ There’s no place like Sherman county” .
The opportunity to talk about it doesn’t occur very
often in these pages. But we c an ’t talk about the Sher
man County .Journal without talking about Sherman
county lor the two. are all tied up together; the owners
were horn in Sherman county and so was the paper, be
fore there was a county, in fact.
Nevertheless it could he better and perhaps we’d
make it better if we weren’t so satisfied with it and
fearful that any change might make it worse. That is
A newspaper seldom writes to achieve complete
agreement. More often it writes to stimulate thought
believing that from thought will come the best programs.
We’ve been at this business now since 1929 and next
March will have been in the county seat for 25 years. In
that time we have learned a few of the things to do and a
Hie paper depends on the county for news and the
pounty depends on the paper for news. The Sherman
’ounty Journal has hut one reason for existing and that
s to help the county and ¡Is people. When and if it quits
doing that it won’t last long hut we d o n ’t intend to quit.
We talk about wheat, how to grow it, what kind to
grow, where to sell it. That includes a lot of things, the
experiment station and its new wheats, its tillage cxjieri-
ments, fertilizers, rain makers, harvesting, storing, mill
ing, baking, eating.
For variety we talk about cows, fat cows, stock cows,
steers, hulls, feed rations, grass, prices, eating.
conservatism raised to the Nth degree which is too high.
In this county we produce tin* staples of good diet
all over the world and in any age or era or century—bread
and meat. Some years we product* enough wheat to feed
the whole state its bread and cake and cookies and ice
cream cones combined. We don’t produce as large a
percentage of the state's beef hut we work at it and the
quality is good Irom good breeding and good grass and
good grain.
Ami while the Sherman County Journal is talking
about wheat and beef it is also talking about other things,
about ,w‘ople, Wheat taxi* , about schools, about politics,
about roads. It talks about such things every week or
some ot them. Nobody agrees entirely nor are thQ ex
pected to agree. One must ay w n s ii^ le things to ob
tain entire agreement.
