SAYS FARMERS NEED
BUSINESS METHODS
(Continued from Page 1.)
| the last legislature created the act
| that established the state department
of agriculture and delegated to that,
department the enfocement of a
great many statutes.
"It is easy to pass laws but mighty
difficult to enforce them. No law is
important except as it is enforced. To
give you a little insight into what we
have done in food and bakery inspec
tion, with only two inspectors and
"myself in the division, in the past 10
months we have inspected 2,100 dif
! ferent establishments, condemned
and confiscated 400,000 packages of
food and conducted an 11 weeks' edu
cational campaign at various fairs
and food shows in large centers, edu
cating consumers how to read labels
and detect old and unfit food pro
ducts. This work necessitated, be
sides stage and auto travel, 18,000
miles of travel by rail, so with the
time consumed in prosecuting num
erous violations of the food laws and
our efforts to enforce the statutes
pertaining to drugs, feeds, fertilizers,
etc., we have been kept reasonably
, busy.
! "The governor is very desirous of
making the state department of agri
culture one of service in every branch
and especially so to the farmers. To
| show you his anxiety in that particu
j lar, only a short time ago when he
learned of the threatened plague
from fire blight, he rode for several
days among the orchards of Eastern
Washington, arousing an interest and
stimulating not only the horticultur
al inspectors but every one concern
ed, to put forth unflagging efforts to
stop its ravages. In addition he
caused extra men to be employed and
ordered that every dollar that could
be spared from the other divisions be
used in the fight against the fire
blight.
"Stay With the Kami."
" 'Back to the farm' is quite a pop
ular slogan, but 'Stay with the farm'
is the better," he continued, "and
until we have devised some way of
making farm life more profitable and
attractive, both slogans will be bar
ren of results.
"I dislike very much to be consid
ered a pessimist and would much pre
fer being classed as an optimist, but
I must admit that the question of
rural depopulation and what it means
to our fair country, at times submer
ges my optimism. It is time that
every lover of his country got down
to hard facts and tried to solve the
difficulty and then apply the remedy.
I sometimes think that false Ideals
THE WASHINGTON STANDARD, JUNE 26, 1914
are beiiit, Instilled In the minds of
our eh *'!•<:•.i and the rising genera
tions from a faulty public school sys
tem. We find boys and girls inocu
lated with the idea that it is dishon
orable to work at many kinds of man
ual labor and some disposed to turn
up their noses at labor of any k'nd.
Parents and teachers must set their
faces against such demoralizing ten
dencies and inculcate the idea that,
there is nothing more hororable than
to toil with hands and brain in every
serviceable vocation that promises an
honest and fair livelihood.
"In the past farmers have not re
ceived just and compensating retnr-i
for the toil, risks and capital involv
ed. No rices of peonle have vorked
harder longer hours than have the
farmers and as a result of such toil
been able to accumulate as little for
their old age and a period of rest.
Their reward should have been
greater and would have been, had
they been properly informed and or
ganized to protect their interests.
"Our national and *state govern
ments have become aware of the ser
iousness of this situation and have
been for some time bending their en
ergies to make up for this lack of In
terest in this fundamental and most
necessary of all industries.
"For many years I have taken an
active Interest in business men's
problems and In casting about for an
explanation for the many failures
among business men, I learned that
many of their troubles arose from
the fact that they did not know what
it cost them to run their business. I
believe, too, that the underlying
cause of many farmers' difficulties Is
the fact that very few of them know
what It costs them to produce theli
farm products.
Association is What Counts.
"We are living in an evolutionary
period, 6,000 years after the dawn
of history, a period in which men
have finally mastered the dearly
bought lesson of experience, the les
son that there is strength in associa
tion and organization. No matter if
some people do rail against associa
tion and organization, we are face to
face with their existence and the
quicker we adjust ourselves to that
fact and endeavor to apply their help
ful and eliminate their harmful ten
dencies, the better it will be for all
concerned.
"Association in its broadest sense,
is co-operation. Through its friend
ly offices «it protects the weak from
the vicious practices of the strong
and the competent from the false
standards set by the improvident and
incompetent. In the realm of labor,
in the domain of finances, in the
myriads of the world's diversified in
dustries, it is found that all those
engaged in any one particular call
ing have common interest to main
tain, common objects to achieve, and
common wrongs and abuses to recti
fy. These things can only be accom
plished through intelligent and unit
ed action. It has been proved that
farming can be put on as high, at
tractive and profitable basis as any
calling in the world, and with the
ever-increasing necessity for which
the farm produces, there is little or
no danger that it will ever be over
done.
"Our live-stock division is preach
ing better stock and the necessity for
exercising extreme care in excluding
diseased and securing healthy and
properly certified animals. I believe
there is opportunity for association
ideas to help in that particular. If
it is found that the price of some de
sirable breed is beyond the reach of
the individual purse, let several club
together and make the start by pur
chasing a male animal for service
among the subscribers. Horses, cows,
sheep and swine could be improved
by such means. Experience has taught
many of us that the higher the qual
ity the better and more satisfactory
the service and you will find this true
not only as regards stock but prac
tically everything the farm produces.
Standardize Your Products.
"Be careful In standardizing your
products. The higher the value of
your produce, the more Interest wil
be taken in it. Care along this line
will not only insure your own pride
in your products but will insure a
class of buyers that will make your
business profitable."

Northern Pacific railway, which
would amount to practically 1120,000

on the last expedition. They exchanged
love messages by wireless while the
doctor w"s in the antarctic.
The south pole was not Dr. Maw
son's goal. He nimed at the explora
tion of tlie vast coast line of the ant
arctic which was discovered by the
American. Captain Wilkes, seventy
years ago and named after him. The
party returned to Adelaide. Australia,
nn Feb. 27 of this year. The scientific
results of the expedition are said to
be very valuable. Besides the mapping
out of newly discovered lands, extraor
dinary marine fauna were discovered
at a depth of two miles and copper
deposits and a vnst coal l>ed were also
found.

Wilson and His Policies.
(Davenport Tribune.)
Some may differ with President
Wilson on his position on the canal
tolls, and many do, but it is another
demonstration of the calibre of the
man, and proves that he is even big
ger than his warmest sut^torters
thought him. He could easily have
dodged the issue and let the matter
rested until after the election thla
fall, "for the good of the party," rath
er than antagonize leading Demo
crats, but Wilson is not an issue dod
ger, neither does he shirk a duty, and
we believe the American people will,
when they come to fully understand
the situation, recognize in him a man
big enough to look ahead and see
conditions coming, and meet them
squarely. It is not yet proven that
he is wrong about the canal tolla,
and we expect to see time prove hla
policy right. Much is being said
about his repudiating the plank ot
the Baltimore platform regarding ca
nal tolls, and he has been censured
by both Republicans and Democrata
who argue that the platform is big
ger than the party, and right or
wrong, the platform Should be car
ried out. We don't believe in the
creature being bigger than the crea
tor. The Baltimore platform was
made by the Democratic party, if the
party then, or the recognized head of
the party, sees that a mistake had
been made in the platform, that party
has the power to rectify Its mistake,
and still remain a power. We believe
in right being might, and we notice
with a great deal of satisfaction that
the old adherents in politics who be
lieve that might is right are becom
ing fewer all the time both in office
and in party councils.
Beginning July 6, members of the
