That the boy is the foundation of
the man is the truth that Governor
Hughes of New York drove home in
a recent Washington birthday dis
course. The boy who goes to school
when he feels like it and shirks his
duties and responsibilities when
there is work for him to do will
nine times out of ten develop into a
shirk and a failure. ''Talk of oppor-
tunity," said Gov. Hughes. "The

carload and then they are not of
uniform quality. At West Salem,
Wis, thirty farmers are breeding
Guernsey cattle. They use better
sires than most breeders can afford
when working alone. Buyers come
to them for Guernseys because in
one day they can look over hum
dred head. At St. Cloud, Mimi,
several men are breeding Shorthorn
cattle. Breeders all over the coun-
try know this and go to st. Cloud
for Shorthorns. Any community
may become noted for the excellence
and quantity of any particular pro-
duct and reap the benefits there
from. Are the farmers of Redwood
county going to be behind in the
race? Or shall we get together?'

Farmers Institute here Tuesday,

you some information on this ques--
ton.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1908-03-04
Get Together.

A uniform carload of cattle, hogs,
sheep or potatoes, always brings a
better price than does the mixed
load. It is always to the advantage
of the farmer if the buyer comes to
him rather than for him to go to
the buyer, as he has his product at
home, where he can hold it if the
price does not suit him, which he
cannot we'll do if he has hauled it or
shipped it to market. A buyer can
pay higher price for product
where he can get it in large guam
tiles, because it takes less time and
expense for him to get the amount
he needs.
The above facts make it obviously
to the interest of the farmers in any
locality to 'get together" for the
purpose Of producing some product
Of uniform quality and in large
enough quantities to attract buyers.
Twelve farmers at small town
in North Dakota "got together" on
growing potatoes. Each grew from
10 to 40 acres of a certain variety.
They get from cents to 10 cents
per bushel more for their potatoes
because postal to their secretary
brings car Of uniform potatoes
while at other towns a buyer spends
two or more days picking up'' g

more than six weeks. The fact that
the last number of the Reporter

sued a statement showing that they
have over ten millions of dollars
loaned out in Southern, Central and
