PART II.
The Orcaniiatioa and Management
of a farm for Profitable
Production
Whether the farmer a* a clan* i»
or i« not getting a fair prue for
hi* product, every peony that a
given farmer save* on hi* cost*, or
Rendered uneasy if nut positively alarmed by western failure
lo take tin MH.thing sirup administered bv Mr. (.oolidge in his
Lhn.tpi .|hv4 h In the western tanners ihe national administra-
non is non making a pretense of formulating farm relief legisla-
tion in order In placate the western radicals. Provision i« lieing
made lo supply the agrarian rebels with a larger supply ol de-
Iiartmental statistic' and it is «■'* •• possible that the Dickenson
relief measure will In* pass**.! b\ a party whose president w* nt
west to talk of the farmers’ unexampled prosperity.
The ad mi—ion thta such rebel is necessary and tlie very act of
relief program preparation i- an admission that the farmer ha~
mt I wen lieuefittrd hy existing tariff laws. A hi lint charge ol
tariff di«« rimination against agriculture is presented by Senator \
(lapjwr. who .wrupn-s the rather emlwrrassing role of Iwing Imth
i k.ms.i' farmer ami a Kansas republican. I here i» no amhigtiit'-
in his assertion, “lid.— the iarmer is enabled to put hi» price:
ip. it will not lie long before he will lie demanding a reduction
.•f the prole*tixe tariff, which keep* up the price of the manu-
factured article* lie con-unies.
If agricultural price* have not lieen tariff rai-cd in |»r.
IKirtion to th<- prices of inanufa* lured articles, what Iweomrs of
ihe recent republican lu.ast that the tariff law* have preserved
agricultural pmsperity!
If tin prices of manufactured product* have Iwen rai^d
sufficiently to < reale danger of agricultural resentment, what Ik>-
I'omes «ii the Coolidge assertion that the mcrea-ed cost to farmer*
ha* been less than 2 jtcr cent?
The recent claim of republican leaders that tariff laws have
ncreuse.) the -elling price of farm pnalmls utterly fail* to corre*-
jg>nd with the answer filed by r«*publiean s.-nators in 1910 to the
insistent charge that the tariff on agricultural products had mater-
ially added to the en*t of living. In answer to a charge that was
undermining republican majorities in eastern cities a special com-
mittees of republican senators declared: "1 he tarifl on the farm-
rs" product*, such as wheat, corn. rye. barley, cattle and other
livestock, did not and could not in any way affect the price- of
these product.-.
This official assertion that tariff schedules did not and could
not increase the price of farm product* was signed In Senator
(willinger. I .edge. Crawford, Smoot and M. Ciimber. and appeared
in the republican campaign liook of 1910.
Such, in part, i' the multiform record written by “the only
|iarty capable of governing.’ When industrial workers object to
the high cost of food, the partisan is ready with an emphatic denial
that tariff schedules ever did or ever could increase the price of
farm product*. When agrarian producers demand relief they are
told superabundant prosperity has already been brought to them ^
hy means of a tariff on their products.
I nfortunatelv. though, for the powers that Ik- the western
farmers an- not so erodulous as they one** were. I hey know that
m spite of five year* of Fordney-McCuinber tariff laws, agricul-
ture is anything hut prosperous. They are learning anew the
lesson taught in 1910 when republican senators officially declared j
that a tariff on farm product* did not and could not increase the
prices of those products.—Oklahoman.
WOMEN, BRAINS AND POLITICS
- !
Rheta Cliilde I)t»or. noted writer. -ays that an outstanding
woman with brains has as much chance of getting into Congress
as Trotsky ha*.
“There are three women members of Congress two of whom
are widow-, elected by the same machine that controlled their
husbands." says the writer, who adds that “the same is true
of the two women governors, one a willow, the other controlled
hy her hu*l»and and his machine.
Piling more fagots on the fire, this woman critic of her sex
-ays she recently heard a speech in Congress that a high school j
girl wouldn't make. She also declare* the same condition exists j
,n local politics. All the women co-leaders in the district of
New York she denounces as women without brains, usually anti-
suffragists and chosen by the bosses because the men know there
is no real organization back of the anti-suffragists.
“Women are still being discriminated against" concludes
the writer, “though they think they are in politics," all of which
may be true in degree, but is not in any way peculiar to the sex.
There are many men who think they are in politics hut who in
r**litv are only the tools of hidden power lwhind the throne.
Years uf observation of nominations made from time to time at
the command of man controlled machines here and there are
.illile conclusive proof of that fact We fear though Rheta f.hilde
Dorr mav be an outstanding figure in the world of literature, she
does not w.-igh heavily as a political and economic analyst. What-
ever mav Ik- said of the standard of the women in political office
.1 must be remembered they are bound to lie representative of the
intelligence and honesty of those who place them in their po*ts.
Outstanding women with brains have an excellent chance of getting
into Congress and more and more will be elected as time goes on.

Forty years ago, the serxicr of electricity, telephone art.I
gas was ju-t beginning a* » public service.
Tin- growth of city and town population ha* lieen largely
due to the M*rvice« of lhe«e utilities, water work* and the
electric railway.
Before these utility service*, people lived in crowded
streets, with houses built as closely together as possible and
covering all of the lots they were built upon.
Through the public, service of electricity, water, gas, tele-
phone and street cars, the cities have spread out, covering
larger areas and affording better living conditions for the
people.
