Porte Written kor this Newspaper It is a notable fact that with alt the wonderful things that have been writ ten about the so-cauea country newspaper," very few of them real izs all their possibilities, or what an influence they are in the worlii It is alro a notable fact that very few of th; readers of those papers realize wl Jt a loss it would be to them and w the world if the "country paper" should cease to exist. The large papers, with immense circulations, tell of "world happen ings" as they understand them, and display heads telling of the latest scandals, prize fights, and the mis fortunes of humanity. But, it remains for the "local pa per," the "country veekly," the "home town paper" to really give the news of the world, of that of Mr. Common People and his wife. It is time thtat the country newspa per should do somethinng to place it self on a higher plane, and also make some noise. Just one paper to start something would not amount to much but if the 15,000 country papers would join in the chorus, a noise that would go round the world would be the result. Some time ago I was going through some trade paper, or bulletin of a state press association, or something of that kind, and noted that somebody wrote that it might be a good idea to have a "Subscribe for Your Home Town Paper Week." I smiled a the idea at first, but some way the idea stuck, and then I started to find out who originated the idea, but the pa per was lost. The publisher who thoueht of the idea just let it go at that, but I de- ready to "boost" for the other fel- cided that it was so good, that it t low, to print item atter item about should not die, so at once asked all i this and that kind or a day or week the trade papers, printers' magazines1 the time has come for it to boost and and the ereat printers' supdIv houses mow its ougie tor itseii, to prim sev- what thev fhouf-hf of the idea. ;cral columns about itself and all The officers of he National Edi- home town papers, to put on a cam. torial Association were written tcvPaign of publicity, and take advan and in fact some two hundred letters tage of what other papers will do. were sent out. In other words, throw its hat into The result was that everyone ! the ring, and put up a fight that will wrote that the idea was just the get it somewhere insead of sitting on thing, and by common consent it was; the side lines and hollerin' for the decided that the week of Novemher othter fellow. ur .er:,e toroKht an ex'raet from the i.ti' tb l.dpter ,,f Kxodus as found J tr 'he WHEAT GnoWFP.S' P.IPI.K Be j fore I read these verses, let me say t'nat I 1 we have been in bondage In Ek pt un- J der siuaw farming for many, many years and the I.

Then opening up the Wheat Growers' Mible to the twentieth chapter of Exo- lus, said to have been written by the Superintendents of the Dry Land Ex periment Stations, he read the ten com mandments In the presence of a full house of farmers.

It is no up to the newspapers of the country, the home town papers, to see the wonderful possibilities of such a week, where in every locality readers will be asked to subscribe for the local weekly, and in addition to the home town paper where they were born if they were not born where they now live. In this way, every home town pa per will help every other home town paper, and by concentrating the ef forts to one week, or three or four weeks, the home town paper will re ceive the publicity it is entitled to.

SHI ' Many ; utreet corner fanner has said : durum the last two months that If he could hnvc received one dollar per bu ?hel for his wheat when he was farm ing that he would have been able to get rich Why cant they do It now. The simple reason is because It cost too much. If we want to analyxe these .osts we will find Jn the first place the overhead is too Krtat, the price of land has increased, the price of machinery has doubled and trebled, much more is bo I n k paid for hired labor, the repair bill on machinery is eshorbitant. It minht be interesting to notice some Mtturos gathered in Sherman county last ve:ir. Those were taken from forty representative farms and these farmers actually kept a set of books accounting for all the money taken in and all the money spent durinp the year of their operation. These figures are for the 1H20 crop, the 1:1 crop would be slightly lower due to the fact that the labor was cut down somewhat and gas and oil was a little less. The other items will remain almost constant, as the man who buys new machinery and pays for repairs or pays interest will readily know. The followinp facts in which ostel: table will give the ou will be most Inter C OMI'AHISON OF WHEAT COSTS PEU FAHM, VF.lt At HE, PER 1U SHEL, 40 FA 11 MS, SKKIOIAN COI'TY. W20.

Mian accepted a position with a drug store in Eugene, Mr. Hughes Is well known hero where he graduated from high school with tho class of '17. H will be Interesting to note that the farmers on these forty farms received j an average yield of twenty bushels per j acre, Obtaining these figures It will bo noted that In addition to the carrying) of expenses such as hired labor and , hoard, their machinery expense which Included repairs. Interest on Invest-1 ment and so on: tho crop expense In-j eluding sacks; their livestock expense,! including veterinary bills and f eed j bought; miscellaneous and general ex-' pensea: there was also added a reason- j able rate of depreciation which would' icpbiee the farm machinery when It i was worn out, seven percent Interest' was charged nn the money which the, man actually had tied up in his farming ! equipment, twelve hundred dollars n year was allowed the farmer for his work which added together gave the total expenses. The last column gives some figures in which you will be In terested. Notice that It costs forty cents per bushel for hired labor during 1!20. If this was cut In two It stilt would amount to twenty cents per bu shel. That is tho only Item which has ehanged greatly during the past year and nlthoutfh It has not been cut In two the twenty cents dotTTINod from tho average cost of a dollar and sixty-five would still" make It necessary that the average farmer receive $1.45 a bushel for his wheat In order to eomo out clear. The farmer who was doing tho best and operating the cheapest found that ft cost him $1.05 a bushel to produce his 110 crop while fifty per cent of tho farmers found that it cost them $1.50 more. Py summarizing your year's business and analyzing it at the close of the season you can not only determine Just what it has cost ou per bushel to pro duce your crop but you can analyze the figures thus determining" the cost per bushel for each operation. The County Agent has already promised to assist a few farmers who have been keeping somthing of a record to analyze these figures this fall and will gladly do the same for others who are interested. The Farmers9 Revival oAs Johnnie Saw It Chapter XX i 1. Thou shalt have no other purpose than this: that thy land be plowed early In the springtime. 2. Thou ,halt not make unto thee any poor plowing or any likeness of any. 3. Thou shalt not look about thee and And weeds on the fallow or an in iquitous result will follow thee un to the third generation. 4. Thou shalt not hearken after false gods and make a dust mulch, ra ther, thou shalt keep thy fallow cloddy on the surface thereof. 5. Thou shalt nut harrow thy land in ' vain. 6. Remember thy fallow land to keep it clean. 7. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors yields but buy certified seed and achieve them thyself. 8. Thou shalt not commit late seeding. 9. Thou shalt treat thy seed properly. 10. Thou shalt never stubble thy grain into the soil, for no mercy will be shown thee, and if a Blight gain re sult therefrom it Is only the work of the devil, for surely thou shalt Buffer and thy children and thy children's children. Then with those ten commandments as a text he went on expounding for twenty minutes in a way that evhii made my old dad sit up and take notice. He showed how beyond a shadder of a doubt a mp.n lost a bushel of wh?al for every week ho left his land unplowed kfter April first, and I saw Ande Jones color up wl'.en he was hittin' tn's the l ardest and I remember tat ha usually got about 8 bushels per acre when dad averaged 23 and that he usually finished plowing Just In time to hay. As he bore down on the weedy sura merfallnw Sid Ilrown, standing in the corner, kept flgitln' around like he was saying it just fer him. He didn't need to tho for we were all In his class I Iho't. He went on to show how formalda- hyde killed from 5 to 20 percent of the seed wheat as it is frequently used and that the blueslone treatment still killed more; I knew as that was why dad : failed to get a stand on the last field he sowed last year. I ain't a tellln' but he treated all his seed at once and let all stand until he got ready for it. He used formaldahyde and then Smith over the fence used bluestone and only got a ; fair stnnd. Abe Neil on tho other side of us seeded about the same time and used formaldahyde but he treated one day what he needed the next and'I sure ' know the reason for the difference and ; think it pays to. treat right I was in- terested In knowing that they could ; keep bluestone from injurln' the seed wheat by dipping the sack in a lime bath, made up of one pound of quick lime to ten gallons of water, after tak- i ing It out of the bluestone solution. Jay Brown said after the meetin that he sure was going to use It hereafter and tho't It was mighty good Insurance When he got down to '.he tenth com mandment the time was short but say he didn't let up a bit. When he got through I knew why it was that dad said that he would rather summerfal low twice in succession than to stubble : a piece in to even up the place. I know that it did take us six years to get the Adams quarter that dad bought from Flddlln' Jim. as they called him, to get to producin' within five bushels of our land adjoinln' Old Jim only had a quar-1 ter and lie fingered that he would have to put it In every year to make a livln' ! and do you know the last year he had It In it didn't pay to cut it so Jim was closed out and went to work. I Well, we had an experience .meetin' after it wns all over and everybody con-; fessed willingly that they had trans gressed from four to ten of those there ; commandments every year and that j they saw how they could Increase their yields from 5 to 15 bushels by livln' up to them. Well, that religion took like a smnll pox vaccination and I can sure see a change. That meetin' came off before scedln' time last year and I noticed that very few took much chance on klllin' their seed. This spring there wasn't a farmer in our School District but what was ready to go to plowing on the first day that it was fit and they were racing to see who would get done first and are anxious to see who gets the biirgcset yield. The County Agent was out one day last Spring and want ed Pan Ilrown to leave a strip to plow late to see how much difference there was In the yield, hut Pan said. "Not ON TER LIF1C. that's what my whole farm has been heretofore and I'm going to compare my crops with the past." When I saw tho real of old Dan Ilrown In this new religion I knew that It ws a revival indeed that was worth while, and I ain't looking for any back sliders cither. I'm not a prophet but I bet in loss than five years we will have tho best producin' community In Morrow County. r.KT'S 00.

As farmers I sometimes think that wo need a real good old fashioned re vival when wo would all really get en thused nbntit doing tilings up right and thereby reaping a real reward. Just as I was thinking this most seriously Micro happened lo bo a meeting called down nt the School House nnd as usual the County Agent was thero. Our chairman said that ho would give us a lalk, that wo hadn't been doing things Early Seeding Gives Greatest Yields. Tests ooiiilueteil (luring: the past two years show that the earliest dates of seeding have piven the greatest yields praetieally without exception. Kvery year Is n little different and it i? often a question whether it Is advisable to seed iu the dust or not. This is true however, thnt every man should at tempt to have his work so arranged that he pan pet his seed in tho ground as quickly as possible after the firsts heavy rain eonies. U la usually con sidered advisable to pet It in the pround by the middle of October. Where seedlnp in the dust the wheat should bo thtwrumhly dried after treating; be fore seeding.
