Their special field of endeavor is the agricultural-vote; they are mak ing their appeal to the Ameri can larmer wniie Mr. Roosevelt and Wendell Wlllkie conduct the major engagement. Oregon a Charley McNary fired the opening gun at the state fair grounds Tuesday and now comes Henry Wallace with his 4-epIy. Before November 5 the fanners of the land will have plenty to think about and draw comparison between the plans for aizrlriiltiiro arivnratrl by these two specialists in that subject. There are several mil lion farm votes and it is a prize worth fighting for. It was prin cipally because of their acquain tance with farm problems that Senator McNary and Mr. Wal lace were selected as running mates for Mr. Willkin anH inr Mr- Roosevelt In his third term. ine name of each is a house hold word wherever acres are cultivated and crops grown. In this contest to win the agrarian vote the material ad vantages are on the side of Mr. Wallace. The department of ag riculture has the largest organi zation of any in the government. Representatives of the depart ment, of which Mr. Wnll.ir-. .... secretary for the past eight .e-rs, are scattered in each and every one of the several thous and counties in the United States. These are reinforced by local committees.

Mrpt ftuntla Cormorants Are Making Good Catches at Lake If It Isn't one thing to plague the fisherman. It's a few other things. Right now it's a flock of IS cormorants up at Fish lake. If these big, voracious birds keep up the pace they've been setting, there may be no fish left in the lake for the sportsmen. Because of the drain made upon it for irrigation. Fish lake is lower now than it has been in years. It is so low, as a mat ter of fact, that the cormorants can catch fish at will. Attend ants at the lake estimate that each of the IS cormorants is taking 400 to 500 eastern brook trout out of the lake daily- If the multiplication table hasn't been revised lately, that means the flock is doing away with 6,000 to 7,500 fishes every day. If a fisherman were greedy enough to catch even a small fraction of that number, he would get pinched as a law vi olator. Cormorants, however, are immune to arrest. Before any reader dismisses this as sheer exaggeration, be it remembered that cormorants de vour fish voraciously and have become the emblem of gluttony. Hence a greedy or gluttonous person Is called a cormorant. And these cormorants devour not only the small trout. They ont is Mr. Wallace and It will be bla taak to defend It whenever Sen. a tor ftteffary undertakes to point out Ita defects, which the senator plans doing. He gave a sample at the Ore gon state fair grounds In his accept ance speech. In that apeech Senator McNary as serted that In the seven lean years of the new deal the farmers annual Income was only seven billion dollars (mostly contributed by the govern ment) and In the year 1S3S the farmers' share of the national In come waa the lowest sine statistics have been kept. The senator said the seven prosperous Republican years (which Include the black sear of 10331 saw the farmer Income reach 13 billion dollars. Sometime during the campaign. Mr. Wallace must attempt to explain why the farm Income has been ao decreased, despite the federal treaa ury contributing substantially to bolster It. THE vulnerable apots In the new deal agricultural policy will re ceive attention from Oregon's "Char lev Mac" In a speech which he will deliver In the mid-west In a few weeks. The senator Intends, If pos sible, keeping Mr. Wallace on the defense and explaining, which la always an awkward position for a candidate to be pieced In. His own votlrw record Is a tower of strength, and Senator McNary has no alibis to make. THOSE who look for oratortal pyrotechnica from the Wallace McNary controversy will be disap pointed. Neither the senator nor the secretary Is a spellbinder and neither ran be classed as a rabble rouaer. They are deliberate speakers, rarely lifting their voice above a conversa tional pitch, and are unhurried, placid talkers. What they will de. pend on Is the meat In their state, ments, their facta and argumenta rather than rlp-roarlng Fourth of July oratory. Farmers listening to the talks on tha radio will be given Oar statements without any e-clte-ment; they sin not be of the pep talk character. Senator McNary la aware of the material advantages poaseesed by Mr. Wallace but he also knowa that the record of the new deal can be rid dled by an unbiased presentation. This waa Illustrated when he ab solved the secretary of responsibility for the trade treaties which were detrimental to agriculture. LIVESTOCK Fortlsnd Portland.

R.n.t A-H have been seen flying off with large ones that extend out the sides of their beaks. As one cormorant flew away the other day, a leader was seen hanging from its beak. The theory was that a fisherman's line had broken, the fish had made off with the leader and the cormorant had made off with the fish. Just what the cormorant thought about it all when it woke up with a fish hook stuck Into its innards has not been learned. Cormorants ' are sometimes trained to catch fish, a band be ing placed about their necks so they can't swallow. Such pro cedure, however, would prob ably be against the Oregon sportsmen's code of ethics, if not the Oregon law itself. But if it could be done, fishermen would probably have less difficulty in catching the limit and thus there would be less need for lame excuses.
