give the buyer the most he can get for his
money because they defy hard usage for the
longest time, and are easiest on the horses.
These are a few of the things that contribute
to the making of the unbeatable I H C wagon
reputation. Selection of the finest grades of
lumber, oak, hickory and pine, and of the best
quality steel and iron; many months of toughen
ing, air-drying of every piece of wood; skilled
assembling of parts, fitting of bolts and rivets,
and perfect shaping and ironing; application
of the purest paint to act as wood preserva
tive and to prevent shrinking and warping of
the wood. In the construction, the wagon
undergoes many careful inspections by experts
who test every part and verify each, operation
so that when the wagon is ready for the farmer,
it is practically perfect in every detail and
thoroughly up to the I H C standard.

VEGETABLE DISPLAY
AS RULES REQUIRE
"The rules of the vegetable exhibit
should clearly state the requirements
in the different classes of entries, and
exhibitor should rigidly adhere to
them," says Professor A. Q. Buuqiiet
of the Hoiticutlural department, Ore
gon Agricultural College,. "There
should be no haphazard "displays. , If
the terms call for six beets, the ex
hibitors should show just six and ex
pect disqualification for an entry of
five, seven, or any number other than
six. These are simple matters and
easily controlled, but they are essent
ial ro prize winning.
"It is just as neoesFary to put up
the packages and t8g them correctly
according to the rules. I have found
cabbage entered as Danish Ball Head,
which was not Danish Ball Heal at
all, ' but an altogether different
variety. Growers should not enter
products of doubtful pedisree and
stock.
"Nor is it best to exhibit a large
number of reputed new varieties.
They are frtquentlv nothing but vac
ations of real varieties and after a
year or so lose their temporary
characteristics. Improved strains of
standard stocks are superior to shifting
varieties.
"But the thing that appeals most
forcibly to the judges's eye is uni
formity in eiz, color, shape, smooth
ness -and clemliness. Any entry of
vegetables which displays these
qualities is in line for a prize."
The
Greatest Battle of
Them All.
We talk mnch of great battles,
which have shaped human destiny,
but forget that vearly the farmer is
fightinu one on which hangs the fate
c f all Ihe empires. It began hy fell
ing the forests or rupturing the sod
with the primitive weapons of the
time, and goes on now with fearful
fury in subduing the weeds and resist
ing all the. encroachments of . evil
which thiong the earth. Floods,
droughts, unfavorable harvesting
weathei, distance from market, con
gested demands, and the combinations
of capital to depress prices are all in
the line of this hero's onward march,
while his cohorts are flanked with
these same oppressors in making every
weapon in his hand cost him much.
Eveiy manufacturer ia his Becret
enemy, overy consumer an ooen foe.
Let your mind run out now over the
broad fields of our land, and then
think how it is dotte 1 everywhere
with the sombrero and the orevall,
beneath which a hero battles in the
sun. Wliatever nig rewaru, mocn or
meager, your hemt might go out to
him and yon might well reach to hold
up his tired arms, for his failure
means the lack of everything to nim
and that of nearly everything to you.
Yes, he battles for sustenance for
himself, it is trne, but he has uever
yet got so small aa to wish to suppress
the output of others that his prices
may be higher; but he has gone over
and m'cgled sweat with that of his
neighbor that both may have food and
raiment. Where else can you find
this? If one business united with
another, it is that some third may
suffer. The great battle is raging
now, while the rest of os scarcely
know enough of it lo lift a good wish
to the heroes of this great heat strife.
