Naturally there can be no need of a market if there is nothing to sell, nor can there be a profitab'e sa'e unless there Is the right market. So the increase in the vi'.:i. of the farm comes with the beper market conditions, the farmer fmi.rtK hotter prices as the market becomes more popular and the market l-.rmHus mor- popular with the nnmher of farmers.

BY FRANK G. 0DELL Editor Nebraska Farm Magazine. The New York Sun quotes .Tame Wllsmi. of Iowa, former Secretary of Agriculture, as saying that the farmers nere lot hardest by the Ailamsoti I-: i 1 1 1 hour Law, which stopped the tlnviitetiet! general railroad strike. According to The Sun. Mr. Wilson said : "The farmer has no olght-liour day. Should dial number of hours become general In all occupations. Including the farm, the prices of food would rise still higher than those current." The lopie of Ihe venerable ex Sec retary Is bad. The farmer Is not wor rying about the hlJi price of food. He raises his own food, lie prov food for sale. That's his business. If, as the el Secretary says, the eUlit hour day will increase Ihe cost ol loud, the farmer hat everything to gain. And "t'ncle Jim" has overlooked the fact that the farmer of the United States had not less than $lUKi0,O00,tKH) worth of products practically ready to send to market when the strike crisis was imminent ut the first of September. The threatened atrike ! would have paralyzed the farmer's market ard stopped the wage of the ! worker In every industry. i Ineiilciilnhle losses, running Into j hundreds of millions, were averted ; when tl.e strike was prevented. 1 Wooilniw WINoii did It. "T.-iniH .lim" was Secretary of Agri culture th roucn four Republican Ad ministration sixteen years. These were sixteen years of monopolistic control of the farmer'! market. Dur ing this period, these great combina tions, which have stood between the producer and the consumer, reached the zenith of their power. Greed and I'Xturtion ri'ii riot. Iurlng this period, the farmer!! of the country complained continually of capitalistic extortion. They held con ventions throughout the great grain and live stock belt to voice their pro test. They sunt deputations of nble men to Washington. They sent their appeals fur Justice to the Secretary of Agriculture and waited at the door of Ihe W hite Mouse during the admin istrations of McKiiiley, Itoosevelt and Taft. They asked for bread and re ceived stones of Indifference. They demanded Justice and received plati tudes about "prosperity," "content ment," and "making two blades of grass grow where one grew before." Then came another Wilson Wood row Wilson. Things began to change. David K. Houston was made Secretary of Agriculture. Tor the first time In the history of the Oovemment, the business problems of the farmer re ceived ( lie attention! of his Govern ment. The Office of Markets and the Kurt-ail of Horal Organization were created to help him break the strangle hold of entrenched monopoly, Tha epoch-making lturnl Credit! Law was passed by Woodrow Wilson and a Oemocraiic Congress. The power of the usurer and extortioner waa broken when tlint Act was signed. The fanner has a good memory, He does not forget his life-long battle with entrenched privilege organized and grown purse-proud during forty years of Republican indifference and misrule. lie will not forget that It waa WOonitOW WILSON, the People'! President, who saved nil market from ruin on Sept. 2. " Time for Futurist Muile. "I don't care much for that piece the orchestra is playing now." "Why, that'! futurist music." "Oh, li that it? Why don't they plar it some time in the future, then?" Pathetic Wearlnen.
