BOZO BUTTS They Drive Him Nuts By "Rube" Goldberg GEE, I'M HAPPY- I'LL BUILD MY DOWN HOME - I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT IS GOING TO COST AND WHEN IT WILL BE FINISHED BOSS, THE MAN PUT THE ROOF IN THE CELLAR BY MISTAKE AND IT WILL COST $5,298 TO CHANGE IT SAY, YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE DOWN ALL THE WORK YOU'VE DONE - YOU'RE BUILDING YOUR HOUSE ON THE WRONG LOT! I GUESS HE HAS TO SLEEP OUT HERE BECAUSE THE ASYLUMS ARE FULL YOUR HOUSE WILL POSITIVELY BE FINISHED IN THIRTY DAYS CAMPAIGN OF 1926 WILL SO Agricultural Notes The market for poultry during the first six months of 1926 probably will be better than during the same period in 1925 but prices for eggs may be lower. Agricultural Notes Although the farming industry is now in the best general position since 1920, any general expansion in production this year would tend to place farmers in a less favorable economic position than at present, the department of agriculture points out, in its farm outlook report. There is little likelihood of increased domestic and foreign demand for farm products, the department says, the situation indicating a possible decrease in demand the latter part of the year. No reduction in farm wages may be expected and the cost of farm equipment probably will remain at the present levels. Sufficient funds will be available for agricultural credit in most regions about the same rates as in 1925. A slightly smaller world crop of wheat is indicated, with world stocks at the beginning of the new crop year not burdensome. Domestic stocks are likely to be smaller. If an acreage of hard spring wheat equal to that of last year is planted and average yields are secured, export and domestic prices may be expected to be more in line with those in other exporting countries than at present. Corn acreage, the same as in 1925, with average yields, will be sufficient to meet feeding and commercial requirements as fully as in 1925. If last year's oats acreage is maintained, relatively low prices are likely to continue unless yields are greatly reduced. The immediate and long time outlook for cattle is favorable. A reasonably constant demand for beef is anticipated. The number of steers is the lowest in many years, but present breeding stocks apparently are large enough to supply as much beef as it will pay cattle producers to raise. The outlook for the hog industry appears favorable, with prices maintained at high levels. The number of hogs in areas of commercial production is the smallest since 1921 and for the entire country the smallest in many years. The present strong domestic demand for pork products seems likely to continue through most of the year. Indications are that 1926 will be a good year for the sheep industry, although profits are likely to be less than during the last two years. There may be a gradual slackening in the demand for lambs and wool in late 1926, but further increases in production may be undertaken profitably in some sections, as contrasted with alternative enterprises. A cotton crop as large as that of 1925 would sell for reduced prices. World market for poultry during the first six months of 1926 probably will be better than during the same period in 1925, but prices for eggs may be lower, because of increased production. Further plantings of citrus fruit should not be made without serious consideration, inasmuch as, barring freezes, a very material increase in production is likely. A gradual improvement in the apple industry may be expected. New plantings of commercial peach orchards are inadvisable, except under the most favorable conditions of production and marketing. New planting of grapes is undesirable. Sweet potato growers are cautioned not to overplant and additional acreage of truck crops should be taken on only after careful study of accessible markets. There is danger that present high prices of cabbage will induce growers in the late states to increase acreage too much. The market outlook for onions during the next few months is discouraging. UNCLE SAM AND THE LEAGUE According to the New York Times Arthur W. Sweetzer, who for seven years has served as assistant director of the information section of the League of Nations, on leaving Geneva for the United States predicted that the United States is steadily drifting into the League of Nations, and that Uncle Sam will be in full association with it before eight more years have rolled around. Mr. Sweetzer of course has the internationalist viewpoint and is more or less out of touch with the sentiment in the United States. During the debate on the World Court resolution nearly every senator who spoke, took occasion to say that the World Court had no real connection with the league, and that our joining would not attach us to the league or bring us under its influence in any way. Even confirmed leaguers like Senator Walsh of Montana did not hesitate to defend our entering the World Court on the theory that such action would no way involve us in the league of nations. The reason that the league advocates took this stand was not that they do not favor the league but because they knew that sentiment among the people of the United States is almost unanimously against our having anything to do with the league. It would seem upon first thought, therefore, that Mr. Sweetzer's prediction as to our joining the league within eight years were a trifle bold. But it is not wise to be too sure about things these days, when everything moves fast, CAMPAIGN OF 1926 WILL SOON Now that Democrats have political ice in a meeting held by Senator Winston, at which Franklin was the guest of honor, tended insist that there about displacing Clem Shawent chairman of the Democratic committee for a new member not be denied that there is demand among Democrats Washington for increase the part of the nation which has been very quiet disaster. The leaders who attend urged greater cooperation Democrats of the house shaping legislation and giving the part of the national and senatorial committees agree that this year will be the tariff effort will be made to wipe away western states from Republic of the protective tariff. The Republican leaders are willing and anxious Democrats on the tariff they will ready to bear gong for action sounds. Rant the prediction that 1926 will be one of the highest national and senatorial committees in many years. WIDE DIFFERENCE WORLD'S NEWS There is an American called the American President Shanghai, China, and it lays that the Reuters New English news gathering suppressed important America regarding China; the charge is made that is the principal source of in China, has suppressed the speeches of President Secretary Kollogg which American policy toward which might affect public points out editorially thither newspapers and news porters out to find out Indications are that 1926 will be a good year for the sheep industry, although profits are likely to be less than during the last two years. There may be a gradual slackening in the demand for lambs and wool in late 1926, but further increases in production may be undertaken profitably in some sections, as contrasted with alternative enterprises. A cotton crop as large as that of 1925 would sell for reduced prices. World production has exceeded the rate of world consumption during the last two seasons and stocks have increased. Further material increases in stocks easily might make them burdensome. There is no market indication that the mill demand will exceed that of the present season. The dairy industry, as a whole, is in relatively strong position, and some slight increase in numbers of young stock during the next two years may be desirable. Should the present trend in foreign production continue upward, however, and consumption in Europe fail to increase, foreign competition in our markets will be an important price factor. Some increases in flax acreage may be undertaken, inasmuch as domestic production is much below domestic requirements, even though the price may be lower. Both the export and domestic demand for barley next year seems likely to be less than in the last year, except for high quality malting types, produced on the Pacific coast. There is danger that potato growers in the late producing states may plant too heavily. Increased acreage of more than 10 per cent is inadvisable. Sugar cane and sugar beet producers may see some improvement in prices for the 1926 crop. There is a tendency toward increased rice acreage in leading countries, and the present domestic demand may not continue next year. Increasing consumption of cigarettes is maintaining prices for cigarette types of tobacco at a fairly high level which, in the absence of increased production, should continue for the 1926 crop. Chewing, snuff and dark export types are bringing unremunerative prices and readjustment of acreage is advisable. It would seem upon first thought, therefore, that Mr. Sweetzer's prediction as to our joining the league within eight years were a trifle bold. But it is not wise to be too sure about things these days, when everything moves fast, including public opinion. The American people are without a doubt dead set against our joining the league of nations, just as they were back in 1920. But it must not be forgotten that the internationalists, those who would involve us with Europe for political or financial reasons have the most far reaching and best organized propaganda in the history of the world. The propaganda reaches into every walk of life and uses both idealistic and selfish agencies. And it has been delivering the goods right along. Remember too, that a majority is not gram. A militant well organized minority, backed by the right kind of propaganda can put over almost anything in these days of national and international hysteria. It will not do, therefore, laugh at Mr. Sweetzer's predictions. It will be better for every real American to counteract this propaganda whenever possible and to stand on guard for American nationalism and American common sense. Two rough workmen were repairing preacher's house, when something happened a few heated remarks in loud tones. The reverend gentleman wrote the company employing the men complaining of the language they used. Called up on the carpet by the manager to explain, Bill said: "Me and Pete Smock wuz on this job. I wuz up the pole and Pete wuz on the ground. There wuz two wires, one wuz dead and the other wuz live—carrying $300 volts. Pete he picks up the live one by mistake. Then he said, 'Say, Bill, please climb up and shut off the current.'" It is now the object of American newspapers to in order to get ready they must maintain AmEra the European capitals, but that is why they we would never know writing on in Europe. PROTECTION AND THE FARMER If by abolition of protection the price of what the farmer buys should be brought down to the level of the world market, the market in which he sells would also be brought down to that level, for the buying of the industrial population would be reduced to an equality with that of the foreign industrial population with which it would compete. The farmer's export surplus would be proportionately increased and the world price level would be depressed, for it is doubtful whether foreign consuming power would be greater. Wherein would the farmer benefit? But the level of prices for many farm products under protection is not below that of manufactures. Wool is an example. It is well protected, and the wool grower is prosperous. He so fully realizes the benefit of protection that eastern Oregon newspapers which oppose protection as of no advantage to the farmer become discreetly silent when asked if they favor free wool. Growers of sugar beets profit by the sugar tariff, and oppose reduction. Dairy farmers ask for higher duties on cheese and butter to shut out the Danish product. Control of domestic prices by the world market prevails only as to staples like wheat, which are not perishable, are in worldwide demand and of standard grades. Full benefit of protection can be secured by the farmer when he adjusts his business to conditions that he cannot change. The nature of the farmer's industry compels him to produce in small units, each on his individual farm, while the manufacturer both produces and sells in large units with all the advantages that the manufacturer enjoys. Farmers are doing this to the number of two millions through co-operative marketing associations, which have become strong with good business management, have good credit and have established wide markets. With wheat, success has been limited, for that grain is grown in almost every state and can be handled with full efficiency by nothing short of a nation-wide organization. PORTLAND OREGONIAN.

Lutheran, Grace CAMPAIGN OF 1926 WILL SOON BE ON Now that Democrats have broken the political ice in a meeting at Washington in which they are promising to open an active fight for the senate and the house this fall, the political pot at Washington is beginning to bubble anew. Before long the primary campaigns will be on in many states and the real struggle of 1926 will be started. The Democrats fired their opening gun, which was a very mild one, at a dinner held by Senator Walsh in Washington, at which Franklin D. Roosevelt was the guest of honor. Those who attended insist that there was no talk about displacing Clem Shaver, the present chairman of the Democratic National committee for a new man, but it cannot be denied that there is an increasing demand among Democratic statesmen in Washington for increased activity on the part of the national committee which has been very quiet since the 1924 disaster. The leaders who attended the banquet urged greater cooperation between the Democrats of the house and senate in shaping legislation and great activity on the part of the national congressional and senatorial committees. It was generally agreed that the campaign issue this year will be the tariff, and that an effort will be made to wean away the western states from Republican support of the protective tariff. The Republican leaders say that they are willing and anxious to meet the Democrats on the tariff issue and that they will be ready to battle when the gong for action sounds. All signs warrant the prediction that the battle of 1926 will be one of the hottest congressional and senatorial campaigns waged in many years. WIDE DIFFERENCE IN WORLD'S NEWSPAPERS There is an American newspaper called the American Press, published at Shanghai, China, and it charged recently that the Reuters News Service, an English news gathering agency, has suppressed important news from America regarding China. Specifically the charge is made that Reuter's, which is the principal source of outside news in China, has suppressed passages from the speeches of President Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg which disclosed the American policy toward China, and which might affect public opinion there. The Chicago Tribune very properly points out editorially that "America is the only country in the world whose newspapers and news agencies send reporters out to find out the truth."
