properly be taken as a guide to
determine the wealth producing
value of a crop. For instance,
1904, was a good crop III this
county, and figures based upon
this alone would be misleading,
except to show the possibilities
of the country under favorable
conditions. But in taking the
five years indicated above, at
least two years Of remarkably
poor crops are included with two
average ones, and one good one.
The period covered will give a
good idea of the general crops
of this county and the profit Of

AS an indication Of the ahso-

Ramsey county farmers. the fol
lowing actual values Of the crops
produced during the last five
years, are produced herewith.
These figures are not mere
guesses, but are taken from the
books of the elevators doing
business iii these years. They
do not include many sales BY
individual farmers, and are
therefore rather below the actual
yield.
In 800, the value was 81 ,631 Il

+. OUR MOVING DAY.

The Inter Ocean goes to press
several hours earlier than usual
this week, and so soon as the
paper is off the press the work
of moving the plant to it's new
quarters on Fifth street, oppo-
site the Improvement company's
plant, will begin. The task is
no easy one, with the heavy ma
chinery which will be readjusted
to the thickness of a sheet of this
paper. Everyone of. the hum
dreds of thousands Of pieces of
type must be moved without
running, and with all this, the
paper must appear next week on
time. The reading public accept
no excuse for short omings in
the newspaper.
The new quarters are large
and cornmodious. The two stor-
les will be entirely occupied by
the printing plant, editorial and
business offices. The machinery
will be arranged SO as to avoid
the noise in the business office
which has been SO disagreeable
in the present location.
When the Inter-O Ocean was To-
Gated in it's present quarters,
shortly after the fire which des,
troyed the plant and building
near the present location Of the
Wilson livery barn, the east side
of Kelley avenue between Fourth
and Fifth streets, was without
noe portentious buildings than
|ons story frame shacks. Now
it is a complete row Of two story
brick blocks, including the hand
[sorne city hall. Such is the
growth Of the city and to keep
pace Herewith, the Inter Ocean
must remove to larger quarters.

BUSINESS NEEDS OF THE
CITY


This city needs a genuine
boom, one that will have some
of the enthusiasm Of the old time
religious revivals. It has the
best paved streets, the finest
business blocks, the best water
system, the finest stores and the
most palatial residences of any
city Of its size in the state. But
it has one drawback. Many Of
its citizens have by their bust
ness ability and industry in the
last score of years, accumulated
fortunes which permit them to
retire from the active struggle
of business, and they are living
in comfort upon their we'll earn
ed money. They are the city's
best citizens, and deserve to re-
tire. They paved the way for
the present prosperity Of Ram
sey county. But from a business
stand point it is the active man
who with a strong will and
abundant energy is seeking to
make his fortune, that gives life
and push to the city. He can
accomplish his ends only by
moving things and in doing this,
he must push and act. What
the town needs is not more com.
petition in lines Of business now
established in the city. but new
lines added, things that bring
more people to the city to live
and that bring more people from
the country to trade. The time
was when this city was a trading
point for the farmers for miles
on each side. Now the building
of new railroads and the devel-
opment of new towns have cut
off thistrade, and as a result, the
trade territory of the city has
been restricted rather than en-
larged. The location of enter
prises here whose commodities
would have no competition in
this lost trading territory would
increase the business Of the city.
But better still would be the 10.
cation within the city or ada
cent to it, of enterprises requir-
Ing the employment of labor.
The brick and stone manufacture
ing plant should employ fifty
men the entire year; and find a
ready market for its product.
Other enterprises should be pro-
cured which would do the same
thing. Two hundred and fifty
additional men employed in the
city would mean the erection of
that many more dwellings and
the feeding and clothing of pos
sibly a thousand more popula-
tion. A very few small enter
prises would bring that many
people.

FARMERS MILL AND HOME
MARKET. ", r.

The building of a mill by the
farmers Of the county now seems
an assured fact, and the success
of the enterprise will mark the
beginning Of a farmers business
era that will largely revolution
ize business methods in the
small business centers. For
years the farmers have been TAX
ing the price offered them for
their products and paying the
price asked for the products of
others. AS business principle.
the seller should make the price.
The farmers having been at the
mercy of the buyers. have been
compelled to accept the prices
made by others. Their product
are the very essentials of life,
and if withheld from tie Market.
would bring the world to the
verge Of starvation. But with
this great natural advantage,
they have been at the mercy of
che manufacturer. The last few
n ears has taught them some val
liable lessons, and despite rea-
soning otherwise, they largely
made the splendid price Of bread
foods last year. If the wheat
growers Of the northwest by
Holding their crops in storage,
can limit the available supply,
the price must necessarily ad-
vance, and they can thus create
their own selling price. But be-
fore the bread stuffs can reach
VEhe consumer. it must pass
through the manufacturing pro-
cess. The mil1ers are, there
fore, the largest purchasers of
wheat. Trading in any commo-
dity stops at the consumer. The
s latter must have such commo-
dity at any price. It is, there
fore, easy to see that the nearer
che producer comes to the con-
sumner the better can the
former control the market price.
Take the manufactures. or mil.
Ter. outof the line, and the COM
1nunication between the two ex-
Eremes is almost direct. Retain
the manufacturer, and he be-
comes the buyer from one, fixing
the purchasing price, and the
seller to the other, fixing the
selling price, and is IN a position
GO rob both for his own enrich
nnent. Re the farmers can in
I addition to producing the bread
crop, also manu- fracture the raw
material, they will be in posi-
tion to make their own price
direct to the consumer, selling
TO him at a lower price and with
greater profit to themselves be-
cause ole the elimination Of the
eloubIe profit taking miller.
