THK GAZKTTK-TIMES, HKPPXER, OREGON, TIIUKSPAY, NOV. 23, 1910. THE GAZETTE-TIMES1 American Quick Wit. Americans are probably the most aui.-K--utej re.rle in th world. Of course the educated Frenchman Is quick-witted and to are many of the irtellijrencia of other nations But in this country the mats of the native born have their wits about them. Why is this? One reason Is freedom of opinion. Every person in America has liberty to think and act as he pleases. Inside th law. Anothar is in dividualism, th thing that th Bolsh iki oer in Russia are trying to kill out of th world. Anotherd reason Is uni versal education up to the age of 14 or It years A workman in western electric liM plant suil.it nly swung Ins list mightily on the Jaw of a follow work man st his side. The chap went down like a shot, but the swift resolve and as swift action by lus shop colleague had saved his life. He had at the mo ment placed his hand on an electric plug. Another fraction of a second and he would have closed his fingers tight ly around it and the chances were he would have been killed or very badly injured. Only the quick working wit and the ready fist of his friend saved htm. ! r The Heppeer Gifl Eetblta4 kerch I'j. ltll Tt. Herpner TIit.h. Katabllshed No-ember It. l(iT.

There It every reason to believe that th American farmer will soon make a tart In the experiment of marketing; one of the country's greatest food com modities himself. The Farm Bureau Federation's Committee of 1? are hold Ing- hearings on the question now. and before the winter is over we expect the announcement o a definite plan for marketing Uncle Sam's annual wheat crop. "Controlled marketing of wheat" is roughly what it will be. It will Invnlv. multitude of details, but no doubt the high spots of the plan wil be near ly as follows: Two distinct organisations one a marketing and the other a warehous ing. The selling or marketing asso ciation of wheat producers may have state organisations, fed national exchange which may have the exclusive privilege of finally disposing of the crop. It tells the state organ isations when and where to sell. The warehousing may be by local, county or sectional companies with preferred and common stock. The pre ferred stock will pay dividends Any body can own this stock, but It has no vote. The common, or voting stock, shall be owned by the selling organisa tion and pays no dividends. Thus, many people who have money may be glad to invest their money In warehousing companies, which will make reasonable profits out of th stor age fees. But only wheat growers may be in the marketing organisation, insuring absolute control to the pro ducers. It Is probable that no start will be made until 51 per cent of the country's wheat growers go In, contracting to turn over their crops to the associa tion for five years. Fifty-one per cent will Just about control the price of a crop. We await with Interest details of the plan as worked out by ihe Seventeen.
