Country Life Commission
Following is the address of Pres
ident E. A. Bryan, delivered to the
school officers of Whitman county,
October 29th, 1910:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Last winter I rode from Pueblo,
Colorado, to Leadville, up the grand
canyon of the Arkansas river. The
scenery is magnificent—sublime, as
any of you who have crossed by
the Denver & Rio Grande will know.
But for the first time in going over
this route I was attracted by a bar
rel flume, conducted for miles along
the canyon wall for a water power
development below. What struck me
most was the ingenuity of the engi
neer in adapting each part of the
flume to --.act conditions where
it was to be carried, always having
in view economy and efficiency, but
with almost an infinite variety in
the means of support. Here a little
shelf was gophered out of a sheer
rocky wan; then it hung suspended
by a wire rope, now it crossed a
chasm on a specially designed spider
web-like steel bridge, again It stood
upon a single foot, reaching to the
ground below and on with endless
variety and remarkable adaptibility
to the particular conditions. Not one,
but a hundred problems, were solved.
When I suggest to you today certain
ways in which country life may be
bettered, certain institutions which
might well be employed under cer
tain conditions, do not dismiss it be
cause it does not look feasible in your
particular circumstances or Invlron
ment, but look rather to the realiza
tion of the principles upon which
it rests and the ends which it pro
poses to attain.
In 1908, in response to a wide
spread consciousness that rural life
was not all that could be wished in a
country which had boasted of Its sol
id foundation in agriculture, and In
response to definite suggestions from
men who had already given heart
and soul to the problem, President.
Roosevelt, without authority of con
gress, and upon funds derived from
private sources, appointed a Commis
sion designated "The Country Life
Commission," and charged it with
the duty of collecting the
necessary data looking to a gen
eral betterment social and political,
economic and educational, In rural
life and rural affairs.
At the head of this commission was
Prof. Liberty H. Bailey, of Cornell
University, Dean of the school of ag
riculture, and director of experiment
stations, a graduate of the agricul
tural college of Michigan, known cv
where not only as a high author
ity on agriculture, but likewise as §
wise, intelligent, statesman-like stu
gatherlng data in response to lists of
questions sent far and wide, seeking
Information as to the schools, the
freight rates, morals, difficulties, and
needs of all kinds in all parts of the
nation. Then dividing it into groups
a rapid recognizance was made, cov
ering the entire country in which ru
ral groups were met face to face
and the problems drawn out and an
attempt made to ascertain wherever
national or state legislation or ad
ministration might better country
life and conditions. The committee
made a hurried report and necessarily
left buried the mass of replies receiv
ed from all sorts of people.
This happened as the term of
President Roosevelt was coming to a
close and, unfortunately, at a period
when tho strained relations between
Congress and the Executive were
growing worse. The upshot of the
dent of country life and conditions.
Another member was Pres. Kenyon
L. Butterworth, of the agricultural
college of Massachusett., a young,
strong, sane and high-minded edu
cator. Henry Wallace, the veteran
agriculturist and agricultural writer
of Wallaces' Farmer, was also" a mem
ber. There are others, forming a
strong and well-chosen committee,
The first movement consisted ot
matter was that Congress virtually
declined to have anything to do with
the matter, and it was only by par
liamentary dexterity that the print
ing of the report of the commission
was secured at all, and then only
in a very limited edition.
The disappointment at this out
come was great, and nowhere more
so than in the Pacific Northwest. A
result of this was that a conference
held at Spokane in November, 1900,
after an intimation that such an act
ion would be well received, asked
the Chamber of Commerce of Spo
kane to print the preliminary report
of the Commission for general distri
bution. This the Chamber of Com
merce readily consented to do and
thus this report was made available
to every citizen of the United States
sending for it.
The same conference of Inland
Empire citizens adopted a resolu
tion looking toward organized action.
It was first proposed that the Gov
ernor of Washington be asked to ap
point, a Country Lite Commission,
but instantly representatives of Ida
ho, Oregon and Montana demanded
the extension of the organization and
so the Governors of these respective
states were asked to make similar ap
pointments. At a later date Govern
or Hay, whose sympathies were hear
tily with the movement, called a con
fer! nee at the city of Spokane, and
as a result of the conference, appoint
ed a commission of five to act for the
state of Washington. It is understood
that the primary financial aid for
launching such work was sought and
obtained from that remarkably pro
gressive body, the Spokane Chamber
of Commerce.
The personnel of the Commission
could not have been better. At its head
was placed David Brown, president.
of the Hazel wood Dairy Co., a man
noted for his breadth of view and his
untiring interest in advancing the
public interest. Mr. Brown is what we
call a "self-made" man and he be
lieves that ho can use his time and
his wealth in no better way than in
making a better and happier people.
Another appointee was J. L. Du
mas, of Walla Walla. President of
the state Horticultural Society. Mr.
Dumas was a teacher, and one of the
teachers who early saw the new light
in education. He saw that to direct
the youth to a deep and abiding In
terest in the ordinary activities of
human life would result in better
education and better living. His
deep Interest In the new agricultural
had lead him into the fruit Industry
in which he has grown rich. He now
has the leisure and the desire to help
the state to accomplish through the
new agriculture greater things than it
has yet dreamed of. The next
appointee was Miss Mary B. Carpen
ter, County Superintendent of What
con county, a lady through whose in
fluence Whatcom county has almost
revolutionized its rural schools. Man
ual training, domestic economy, ag
riculture, etc., the consolidated
schools, and clustering the civic and
social life of the rural community
about the school have characterized
her work. Mr. A. L. 'Rogers, of
Waterville, and Senator W. H. Paul
hamus, of Sumner, complete the list.
These two progressive citizens are in
the heartiest sympathy with the
newel movements In education and in
social betterment. Senator Paul
hamus has been Instrumental in the
transformation of the Puyallup val
ley into a great horticultural center,
one of the most remarkable of its
kind In America.
While the Rural Life commission
recognizes that its work reaches far
beyond the school, yet it also sees
in the school possibilities as an in
strument of social betterment that
have hardly yet been dreamed of.
One of Its advantages is that It is
freo from the dangers of „„.,---
politics, and does not have to co?
tend with the prejudices of sectartU
religion, and that Is th. great | n »S
ment of rendering the coning J
democratic in thought, word __
deed. It is due to this perhaps that
one of us proposals i 8 that, whereT
can be wisely done, the uplift , J
take place through the establish,,^
of so-called "civic centers- Th
consolidated school at least the on
solvation of the upper grades of ll
joining schools shall form the J"
'raj feature One of the great^
evils appearing throughout the IJni
led States has been the short tenure
of the teachers in the rural schools
preventing any permanent policy 5
any consistent organization. There
lore in addition to a school building
i large enough and adapted to the
newer idea in Industrial education
there shall be, when possible, a cot'
tage for the teacher and his family
where he shall live all the v*A
round, and where he shall have as
permanent a tenure, and as great an
opportunity to establish a permanent
home as possible. Where It can be
done, on the same grounds shall be
a "grange hall," as their central
meeting place, where social, political;
and educational gatherings of the en
tire community may be held. Natur
ally at such a center library and;
reading room facilities will arise. To '".
make a proper foundation for such a
system the school ground shall con-■'"
tain ten aires. Part of it should be
planted to trees. A garden and plats
for experimental and -demonstration-•"■
al work in agriculture would go with
it. Suitable sheds for work and play
form part of the plant. All this
basis would make possible the newer
In , rial subjects along with the
old tried and true school subjects,
domestic economy, working in wood
and metal, elementary agriculture !
and horticulture, would thus find a;
permanent and useful place.
With a wise man as teacher who
would spend years in one place there
would be possible a neighborhood
development beyond anything to
which we have yet attained. Nor
would this cost much more in the
long run than the old system. Meas
ured by its efficiency it would be a
great gain in economy. Minute dis
trict subdivision, with the building of
school houses, and hiring inefficient
teachers for schools of a mere hand
ful of pupils is false economy.
The reaction thus possible on the
Industries of the community can
hardly be overestimated. Dairying
and animal husbandry, the various
types of horticulture, general farm
ing, would receive a great stimulus
and become a pleasure rather than a
drudgery. The temptation to seek a
city life would be reduced and rural
life would assume its best form. The
mission realizes that not every
community can accomplish this at the
outset. We have many densely popu
lated districts, particularly where Ir
rigation is practiced, and it may be
gin there. 1 bespeak from you a
sympathetic study of its undertakings
and co-operation in its work.
Fighting the Jim Hill Mustard
POMEROY, Wash., Nov. B—Dr. C.
(',. Black, who owns hundreds of
acres of farm land in Garfield county
has received instructions for fight
ing the Jim Hill, or tumbling mus
tard, from 11. Kent Beattie, botanist
at the state college at Pullman.
"The best way of fighting Jim Hill
mustard Is, first of all, to be careful
not to bury the seeds. The ground
should be disced in the fall lightly,
so the mustard seeds are covered
just enough to make them sprout.
Then if you should have dry weather
in the winter go in with a weed kil
ler or cultivator of some kind and
cultivate them out.
"It is easy for one man to seed
down another, and you should enlist
the co-operation of every one in the
region."
Bran is a good and handy feed
to have in the dairy bam, but it is
not needed where there is a good
supply of alfalfa.
It is a good plan to give late
calves a little extra food ami care
to help them gel a good start be
fore cold weather sets in.
