THE OREGON FARM BUREAU, ending its
state convention last week heard W. R. Ogg
legislative representative say that the Bureau
was putting up an endless fight for farm parity.
That the farmers of this country should have
to put up any fight for a parity on their products
seems ridiculous. But until those in our national
government, New Dealers, Democrats and Re
publicans alike, get the idea into their head that
farming is the basis in this country of all pros
perity, just so long will the farmer have to keep
fighting for his rights. All the alphabetic agen
cies in the world are not going to help the farm
er, despite so-called “payments” if he has to
devote seven and a half to eight acres of wheat
land to purchase a seed drill. The fanner does
not object to paying a fair price for the equip
ment he must use, because he knows that he is
lending his financial support to the high stand
ard of living in the United States, but one can
not blame him for wondering if he is the “for
gotten man.” The sugar beet grower is a good
example of the regulation that is gradually be
ing forced on the American fanner, for in this
field of farming, the wage scale is set by hear
ing with the officials of the Agricultural depart
ment, the net result of which is that the beet
grower must pay top wages and then face forg
ing competition.
Our so-called recriprocal trade agreements,
somewhere along the line are actually working
to the disadvantage of anything approaching
farm parity. Take pears and apples—Canada
slaps on a tariff of sixty-one cents per box on
foreign apples, while the United States has a
duty of only 15 cents per box! And to add in
sult to injury, Canada last year shipped into the
United States, 115,000 boxes of apoles, and up
to November 5 of this year, 514,000 boxes of ap
ples were allowed to come in to the American
market—and not long ago a visitor in Nyssa
told us that fruit growers on the Oregon coast
were letting their fruit go unpicked this year
because of the lack of a market that would re
turn them enough to pay for the harvesting! The
pear situation is a similar one, except that Ar
gentine had a tariff of seventy-seven cents per
bushel, and last year shipped into the United
States 97,000 boxes which will, it is expected, be
