COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD OIVE THEM PREFERENCE IN APPRO¬ PRIATIONS.
By Peter Radford.
This nation is now entering upon an era of marine development. The wreckage of European commerce has drifted to our shores and the world war Is making unprecedented de¬ mands for the products of farm and factory. In transportation facilities on land we lead the world but our port facilities are inadequate, and our flag is seldom seen in foreign ports. If our government would only divert the energy we have displayed in conquer¬ ing the railroads to mastering tbe commerce of the sea, a foreign bot¬ tom would be unlcnown on tbe ocean's highways.
This article will be conflned to a discussion of our ports for the pro¬ ducts of the farm must pass over our wharfs before reaching the water. Wo have in this nation 51 ports, of which 41 are on the Atlantic and 10 are on the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second Congress appropriated over |51,000,- 000 for Improving our Rivers and Harbors and private enterprise levies a toll of approximately $50,000,000 annually In wharfage and charges for which no tangible service Is rendered. The latter Item should be lifted oft the backs of thc farmer of this na¬ tion and this can be done by Congress directing its appropriations to ports that are ^ree where vessels can tie up to a wharf and discharge her cargo free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. It takes out tbe unnecess.ary link in the chain of transactions in commerce which has for centuries laid a heavy hand upon commerce. No movement Is so heavily laden with results or wlll more widely and etjualiy distribute Its beneflts as that of a free port and none can be more easily and ef¬ fectively secured

THE VITAL
'R06LEM OF IE
By Peter Radford.
There is no escaping the market problem and the highest development of agriculture will not be attained until it is solved for a market Is as necessary lor the producer as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational Insti¬ tutions have spent $180,090,000 in the United States during the past ten years for improving soil production and Improving seeds and plants, but very little attention and less money has been given to the marketing side of agriculture.
The problem Is a monumental one and dne which will never be solved Until It gets wltbln the grasp of a gigantic organization where master minds can concentrate the combined experience and wisdom of tbe age upon it. It Is a problem which tho farmers, merchants, bankers, editors and statesmen must unite In solving.
The Farmers' Union stands for all there Is In farming from the most scientific methods of seed selection to the most systematic and profltable plans of marketing, but does not be¬ lieve In promoting one to tbe neglect of ths other. We consider the work of farm deraonstratora valuable and we ask that governmental and com¬ mercial agencies seeking to help us, continuo to give us their assistance and advice, but we believe that their influence should be extended to the marketing side of nnr farm problems also.
We cannot hope to develop manu factoring by over-production of the factory; we cannot build up mercan¬ tile enterprises by the merchants load¬ ing their shelves with surplus goods and no more can we develop agricul¬ ture by glutting the market wltta a surplus of products.

DARIUS
The neigh of a horse made Darius King of Persia, the six contending powers tor the throne agreeing among themselves tbat the one wboae borse should neigh first should possess the kingdom. This ancient method ot settling disputes among politicians oould be revived with proflt today. If our partisan tactions and petty pol¬ iticians could only settle their dis¬ putes by the neigh of a horse, tbe tmrk ot a dog or the bray of a donkey, it would be a great blessing and would give our citizens a better opportunity to pursue the vocations of Industry free from political strife. .
Let those who pick political plunia by raising rows and who flash swords dripping in ttae blood of industry un¬ derstand tbat they cannot tnrn ttae public tfiram into a political arena and by a Clash of personal aspirations still the hammer and stop the plow and that their quarrels most lie settled ia tho back alleys of dvUlsattoo.
