j.ii i- at oci: is jm.i:a
T!i- farmers will not harvest a
heavy crop this fall. They difl'i'l
last fall, nor the full before. It has,
been some years since this section
has proilufK a big crop. When 'no
prices were the highest the crop was
the f-hortest. The farmer has been
hoeing u iiiird row, says the Harris
bun:, Oregon, Uul'.etir.
There has been talk of relief, but
where it is coming from is not clear.
Up lo this time the farmer has not
had any substantial encouragement.
He may have borrowed money front
the government. Heretofore he bor
rowed from the insurance companies.
The difference in the interest rale?,
lias not offset the increase in taxes
by even a perceptible degree
Hut there is encouragement for the
farmer. The real, practical farmer
can chuckle to himself, but the chuc
kle will have a rattle to it that sooner
01 later will be heard inside the ma
hogany furnished offices of every city
concern. With the squeeze that the
farmer is experiencing he( knows that
when he cannotlonger meet his bills
the typewriters will cease to click In
the city and the wheels of industry
will rest and rust.
Tho farmer feels that ho is a pro
ducer. He works at it from daylight,
till dark. He keeps about him stoclc
and Implements all calculated and de
signed to produce. His employes are
not eight-hour men; they bend their
backs to hard toil longer hours than
any class o tradesmen and are often
subject to extra duty In the dead of
night with no thought of extra pay.
It is in the rural atmosphere to be
producers. They jrow up that way
in the rural home where every mem
ber of the family automatically bo-
come.'; a producer 1mm the day the
little maid learns lo work the churn
dasher and the barefoot lad drives
t In; big team out in fronl of tho har
row.
The old man lias a right lo chuckle
when hi' contemplates what the
world would do without him, That
does not actually undertake 11)
place designs of this nature into el
ect is entirely to his credit. The
spirit of revenge is not his. While
lie realizes that l lie men who f-.it
irountl In easy chairs, oozing away
to the influences of electrically ihtv-
11 fans, are able to exit be.aase of
the long hours and the hard work
which is done 011 ti.e rami, he real
izes also that, there is rarely a word
of praise on the lips of the city-bred
for the works of the producer. Tho
farmer sees I lie luxury and idleness
of lite city. Where the farmer lias
round him an equipment to produce
the e.senlials of life, the city man
is surrounded Willi equipment to
utilise, lo entertain and to satisfy his
eniaiid fi r shorter hours and less
work.
When hard limes come to the rural
lislricls it is than that the manipu
lators who have always existed off
I he farmers' effort become the busiest
ley scheme lo lower tile niarliels
lite gr-'ttl ambition being to conlrlo a
0111 mod it j- of some kind.T hey would
urn Heaven and earth upside down
1 hey could accomplish their ends.
If tite farmer attempts lo organize
or his self protection 1 lie city manip
ulators presses a button or two atiu
the works tire gummed.
I'lte farmer will not be content al
ways with these conditions. He must
have relief. When after years he
sues no prospect ahead hut to 'inoc-l
his taxes and I lie interest on his
loans, when he becomes convinced
that I he nou producers are the ones
who enjoy life the most and fare tlte
best, then he will apply tile test. He
may he saitstiej today with the chuc-
le. Tomorrow he may grow grim.

iti; i:les
In the agitation for tax reduction,
regulating the spending, of pubuic
funds is of aromount importance.
Much agitation has developed for
an amendment of our state laws
which will require advertising for
bids on all public work or supplies,
in all counties, instead of merely
counties of 50,00 inhabitants or over
as the law reads at present, which
makes it applicable to Multnomah
county only in. the state of Oregon.
Any larse private corporation
takes bids before making its pur
chases. Why should not county courts
which spend hundreds of thousands
of dollars annually be required to ad
vertise openly through regularly cir
culate dnewspapers when asking con
tracts on coiiBtrustion work or for
supplies?
While the intentions of our county
officials in doing the work by the
county without asking for bids, are
undoubtedly the highest, it is not
reasonable to suppose that such offi
cials with no previous training in the
expenditure of the hundreds of thou
sands of dollars required in public
work are qualified to be the sole
judges when it conies to determining
price" of goods, etc.
Certainly no harm could come
from the competition which would
result in advertising for bids while
much harm and loss can come to tax
payers from the . present system
which permits the buying of supplies
and doing of work in every county
except Multnomah without the com
petition of public bidding.
An amendment to the present state
law so that it would apply to all
counies in addiion to Multnomah
would not be a tax-raiser, it would
be a tax-saver to every county in the
state.
To live to be a hundred and have
nothing to show for it but old age
isn't worth the effort.
