A GIGANTIC BUSINESS cOMBINA-
TON.
An Outline of the Method by Which
American Farmers May Become Per-
manently Prosperous and Independent.
IN THREE PARTs-PART L.

Editors Progressive Farmer
For a number of years past much
has been said and written by persons
of large experience and capacity to
give wise counsel to show the neces-
sity of proper organization among
American farmers for their safety
and Improvement. The Patrons of
Husbandry and the Farmers Alliance
are the o%utgrowth of this idea. The
principles and purposes of each OF
these orders are prudential and merl-
torious. Their failure to accomplish
all that was intended is due to the
fact that there is too much of theory
and sentiment and too little of
sound, practical business methods in
their course of procedure.
WHAT WHEAT GROWERS HAVE AC
CoMPLIsHED
The wheat growers in many of the
most populous and productive of the
Western States have got rid of some
of the theories which characterized
these two orders, and large numbers
of the most thoughtful and progress
sive farmers of that section, being
convinced of the soundness of the
proposition that proper organization
is indispensable to their safety and
prosperity, and that to attain salts
factory results, such organization
should be formed and conducted up
on practical business linesy have con-
solidated their strength in a number
of the States, and originated and
given Vitality and impetus to the
great movement made by the wheat
rover of the Western States to
form a large stock company, taking
the Rockwell system" as a basis,
with a capitalization of fifty million
dollars, whereby the wheat growers
are able to have their own ware
houses, grain elevators and manu-
featuring plants operated and man
aged by their own company, and thus
handle and dispose of their product
at prices established by themselves.
Wheat is 80 per cent higher now
than it was before the wheat grow
ers cooperative movement upon
practical business lines began. This
advance In price is not due exclusive
ly to shortage of the wheat crop,
despite the arguments put forth by
speculative influence to show that
such is the case.

A TOBACCO GROWERS TRUST.

4SO0OSS N3
The tobacco and cotton growers of
the South can bring about just such
results as they may determine as to
standard prices for these commodi-
ties by thorough organization upon
practical business lines among the
growers of these crops. The tobac-
CO growers can make themselves com
pletely independent of the American
Tobacco Company, and of the I'm
perial Tobacco Company, as well as
every other company manufacturing
tobacco, all of whom are compelled
to rely upon the producers for the
material to keep their factories 60
ing. The tobacco growers can secure
this independence, protect their in

DIRECTORS RETAINED.

The annual meeting of the Tempe Pumping company was held yesterday at the Odd Fellows hall. While this meeting was held primarily for the purpose of electing new directors and an advisory committee, Q very small amount of the time was devoted to this. The directors and the commit tee of last year had proven very sat- isfactory and TO good could be gained by eIecting new ones, consequently they were reelected by exclamation as follows: Directors. I. Y. Stewart, Grant Jones, J. w. Woolf; committee, Price Brown. Wm. Rohrig, Miles Pc tersen and H. c. Yeager.
 The principal question before the meeting was that of bonding the plant about to be-put into operation and the proposed ealaIgements to obtain sui ficient amount to build the enlarge ments. This had many advocates and probably as many more who were op- posed to the Tnea The matter was discussed at considerable length and while the discussion was at it's height Chas. Woolf, fife chief rang the fire alarm, it being the occasion of his an- nual inspection O. the Tempe fire de- paTtment. This had the effect for a moment Of putting an end to the wat CT meeting. MT. Woolf concluded that the depa -tment was in excellen. shape and after this discovery was made the meeting was again called to order and the subject was resumed with the re- suit that the directors of the plant were instructed to institute inquiries as to how the plant could be bond cd, for what amount and when. Whc" the plant has been .n operation for a reasonable length or time they will re- port the results of ther investigations to the company and the question as 10 whether CT not it shall be bonded wiJ then be decided u-on.
