PATTISON, Kditor and Publisher Entered at the Heppner, Oregon, Terms of One Year Six Months Three Months WHERE 1'KOSI'KUITY STARTS In the fall of 1920, prices paid to lariMois fort.heir products entered period of drastic decline, l-'rom tlien until a lew months a;;o the indust .rial depression was du largely to tlie shrunken purchasing power of the American fanner. Four months ago the values of crops were calculated by the depart ment of Agriculture at eight billions dollars ii-.fls than two years before. While the farmers income was chrinking, the prices of the manufac tured articles he needed did not drop in proportion. The farmer could not afford to sell eight bushels of grain (o pay eight dollars for pair of shoes. He sold the wheat because he had to but ho found that he could get along, nomehow, without the shoes. In fact lie got along for a year or so without buying any thing. Slowly but surely Hie wide differ ence between the. prices of farm pro duels and of merchandise the fanner buys Is being wiped out by the law of supply and demand. The business situalion of the nation is improving. The backbone of our prosperity is found in the fertility of our soil. We are able to produce, more than any oilier nation, a wide variety of the things the world needs. When our farmers are given a fair re. lurn on Iheir inveslmet and labor, they insure to the nation as a whole a fair degree of prosperity. The lirst and most interesting sign of heller business Is' that prices paid lo the farmer are going up. As crop figures begin to come from the Argentine and Australia and from Canada it becomes clear that In none of these countries will the yield ap proach earlier estimates. The result is that while May wheat options were selling nl. $1.12 a bu. in I In- middle of last October, they had gone ast high ai $1.17 by the 1st. of March. f'ollon too, bus a substantial relurn 'oi'n null hugs have si.pn-cinleil silciidily sln-ep and wool are bringing much butler prices, and so are cattle in spile of (he far! thai M few monlhs ago political orators were predicting that the packers would do everything ill their power to f(M prices down.

When we can pay for public development we should have betterments, but when taxes grow burdensome we must be content with the old ways until we can do better. Just now taxes must be trimmed wherever pos sible and no new appropriations made; and, the pressing needs of the farmer and stockman must be the main issue in law making and in the sphere of public influence.
