In Good Fortune, a Bad Lesson.
The farmers of Lewiston valley
are just beginning the harvest of
the greatest crop in the history of
the country. The promise of a
profitable season is very flattering.
A rich reward for the season of
care and toil has practically arrived
In years past big harvests and re
munerative prices have caused dis
asters to follow. The only safe
method for the farmer is a conserv
•tivc course. Because wheat grow
ing brings a big return one year it
does not follow that the tesult will
be perpetuated. The farmer is too
apt to be influenced to divest all ol
his euergies to the one branch of
his business by the big returns of
one year.
The Lewiston valley has more
examples of profitable farming
than any other community in the
northwest. There have been here
some examples of disaster. The
large number of successful faimers
hare all been conservative students
of local conditions. They have
iralcd the certainty of the
business when intelligently pur
sued. There is more ptofit in farm
ing in the Lewiston valley than in
other sections of the country, be
cause a good yield can be regularly
grown and harvested at a smaller
cost than in auy other section of
the United States that is devoted
to wheat as a general crop. This
uniform yield is the result, how
ever, of good farming and the obser
vance of peculiar conditions of soil
and climate.
The disasters that have attended
the wheat farmers have, on the
other hand, been due geuerally to
the disregard of local conditions.
In some instances very large yields
and large profits have l»een gained
from haphazard methods. The
same conditions are observable in
all branches of business. Often
reckless deals return great profits;
but only couservative methods are
safe.
Stimulated by success the farmer
is often impelled to do poor work
and to sow out of season, and then
invite disaster. The only safe bus
iness method is the one that pro
duces regular crops, even under
unfavorable conditions.
The farmer who becomes excited
and neglects his horses, his cows,
his hogs, his chickens, his hay, his
Iruit and his vegetables for exclu
sive wheat culture is iu danger of
loss. The farmer, as other busi
ness men, should avoid hazardous
investments, su:h as exclusive
crops planted as is uecessary, per
force of conditions, in badly tilled
grounds, and out of season. The
wise farmer will not be di
verted fiom his safe method of crop
diversion by the excitemeut caused
by one year of extraordinary pro
fits iu wheat culture, even in the
Lewiston valley.—Newton Hibhs,
in the Teller of June 22.
Seeing Things.
The stock in trade of democratic
argument is "pity the woes of the
poor farmer." In the whole cate
gory of American industries noth
ing is left to illustrate a tale of
woe but the low price of wheat and
the democratic bunco steerer is
harping upon that alone, hoping
to delude the farmers of the conn
try. The farmer is asked to ig
nore the fact that flax and corn,
and oats and hay are a good price
and easily marketed; that cattle
and bogs and sheep are at top
notch prices and the farmer is
making money raising and selling
them. He is asked to ignore the
fact that money is easier and mar
kets better. He must close his
eyes to this and open them only to
visious of the trust octopus.
But the farmers of the country
are seeing things, not bugaboos,
but realities. There is no depress
ion in the country as there was in
1893-6. If wheat happens to be
low, flax is not, but on the other
hand the highest price ever known.
Cattle are at a high price, and
hogs, sheep, oats and hay were
never in 1 etter demand or more
easily marketed. The condition
that confronts the farmer is better
than the theory which the spell
binder and the space writer ad
vance to frighten him. "A bird
iu hand iu hand is worth two in
the bush" is a wise old saw, yet it
is very applicable to present con
ditions.
The Teller quotes again today
from Mr. Ilibbs, the farmer's
Iriend, an admirable, excellent ar
ticle setting out the conditions in
the Lewiston valley last June.
There is no calamity wail about
this; it is replete with facts of ex
isting conditions with a word ol
good adv.ee. Mr. Hibbs asks the
farmer not to get excited and neg
lect his horses, his cows, his hogs,
his chickeus, his hay. his fruit, his
vegetables for exclusive wheat cul
ture. The Teller now, in be
half of the farmer, would like to
thank Mr. Hibhs and say that they
have profited by his advice and are
not excited, but renumber the
horses and cows and chickens aud
vegetables and fruit, for there is
danger sometimes in excessive
wheat culture, as there is in ex
eessive wheat arguments.
