These are dark days for Germany because she herself put out the light of truth. Buy your thermometers now—in dications are that they will be high er next summer. Washington, according to reports, is in the dark about what is going on in Berlin, and there is a good deal of reason to suspect that Berlin itself dues not know which end it is stand ing on. France is very much against ad mitting the Bolsheviki to peace con- ference. The reason, of course, is that it’s supposed to be a peace con- ference. To be successful in Berlin demo- cracy one must be a good bullet dod ger. It appears that the last faint hope of the wets is the February thaw. It is about time for Pancho Villa to play a return engagement. It is a burning shame the way the U. 3. Government is treating our wounded soldiers. Our boys who went over there and freely offered their lives for their country and the preservation of civilization, and who iust an arm or a leg are now walk ing around In needy circumstances. » ou should set down and write a let- er to your congressman and both f your senators demanding that a bill be passed at once giving these boys who have lost a limb a pension of at least $75 per month. Write a letter at once and mail it, and make it peppery. If somebody would nominate Henry Ford for president and all the till Elizabethans would vote for him, we could quit looking for Presiden- tial timber right now. When love feeds on beauty alone it soon turns up its toes. Wonder if the senators who ob- jected to the president’s going to Europe will object to his coming back.

HU Mr. Editor: In the last issue of the Hermiston Herald I noticed the following resolution was passed by the dairymen at their recent meet- ing at Hermiston: "Be it resolved, that it Is the sense of the dairymen of the project that the local mer- chants owe protection to the dairy farmers to the extent that they de cline to handle any of the butter substitutes in a way to compete with dairy products." Being one of the dairy farmers of the project, I feel my worthy broth els make their assertion rather too sweeping when they include us all. And I wish to use the columns of your worthy paper in hastening to inform the public that I do not be- long to the class of citizens who say to the poor man. “if you cannot af- | ford to buy my milk and butter for your children's bread then they must eat it bare." 1 would like further to inquire if we have a class In whose "sense It is" that the merchant, the producer, and the manufacturer, owe any pro tection to the poor man’s child? What wonder that the birth rate has declined What mother love and Instinct would not recoil the world of today; what woman would wish to help furnish these innocent lives to be crushed between the grinding mill stones of indolence and greed? No doubt the Hermiston merchants will soon receive an order from the packing industry to "cut out" dairy products, as it hurts their business. If it is made possible to get milk and butter for the children of the poor, they will neglect to buy their tough beef and strong bacon. Therefore the butter trade must cease. These children must be edu cated up to do without the things that hurt their trade Let mathe- matics, history, and al) like rubbish. take the second place, Our educa- tors are paid servants; they must Five more Attention to the smoothing of the path that leads the to easy street.

Proclaim my colors to the public, that they may know where to find me. Down with the oppres sor. has become my slogan; my voice, my arm, and my money are behind it. If the banishment of Olio from the tables of the poor, in the inter- est of the dairy farmer, is a sample of the freedom our boys have bled for on a foreign battlefield, then it has cost too much. Down with the oppressor, whether he wears the red cross or red button. Nose him out with the blood hounds of justice and speed him to the bone yard. I mean to inform myself on this subject, and every legislator who find a pports the measure will place on my blacklist for future ref- erence. In my judgment the dairy industry has been "legislated” until far more babies have died for want of milk than ever died for want of whitewash in the cow barn. Mrs. F. B. Pennock. With all restrictions on lumber being taken off by the government, why not build that barn that you need so badly. feeding damp or wet hay to your stock. There is no economy in A good barn will almost pay for itself in two years in the saving of hay and animal heat. Wood remains the most universal and adaptable building material, the lightest and strongest weight for weight, and in cost remains one of the cheapest materials.
