construct warehouses to aid farmers
in marketing their cotton. I under
stand that Louisiana is to be the
first state to take this important step.
Under this proposed Louisiana ware

ually or through his organization,

chester spinner than the contract of
q Spectator to deliver the cotton.
lone Of the things advocated by
the Farmers Union is great
er proportion of federal appro-
priation for agriculture. In a re-
cent speech in the lower house of
the congress, Chairman Tawney, of
the committee on appropriations,
said that II per cent of the revenues
of the government went for military
expenses, which amounted to $780,
0OO, 900 for that period. This is 80
times as much as appropriated for
agricultural purposes. This session
the senate has passed a bill provid-
ing for $500 900 to pay for few
acres of land in Washington to give
a better view of the capitol. This is
the kind of reclamation which Wash
ington understands and to improve
these few acres the legislators are
ready to give one-quarter as much
as given for agriculture,

Thirty cents a dozen was the
average price of eggs in New York
last year, while the farmers Of Ar

the rice farmer were paid three and

not be had by creating prejudices

are not organized, and they are los

St. Louis, May 4.-Excessive profit
taking by middlemen was the reason
assigned for the high prices of food
stuffs by B. F. Yoakum, chairman or
the Frisco System, in an address
which he made this afternoon before
the National Convention of the Far
mers' Education and Cooperative
Union, now in conference in this
city. He declared that the heavy re-
ductions in freight rates of the past
few years had been absorbed by the
dealers and not shared in by the
farmers or consumers Better mar
keting methods were advanced as a
means by which farmers would get
better prices for the food they raise
and at the same time lower figures
would be given to those who buy the
stuff for use in the kitchen. This
railroad man described the dema-
gogue politician as distributing
and expensive middle agent and
urged that he be cut out in the deal

IF the government would spend
one and 4 half million dollars q year
for twelve years for drainage sur
veys and in opening waterways to
the gulf, it would make available
25, 100000 acres of Mississippi valley
land for cultivation and this would
be at cost of Is cents an acre. This
average would provide 80 more farms
for 312 500 families or million and
a half people. It costs $35 an acre
to reclaim land by irrigation. The
states Of Arkansas, Missouri and
Louisiana are begging for money for
reclamation by drainage, but the
politicians at Washington are not
disposed to heed their appeals.
During the last five years 406 900
Americans, principally farmers, have
left the United States for Canada
and they took with them 81 900 each.
Canadian officials, all of whom are
taking a personal interest in secur-
ing the best class of farmers for
their country, estimate that this year
they will get 100000 American farm
ers and that they will bring with
them $130, 100000.
NEARLY all we hear from Wash
ington is about military explorations
and unimportant political controver-
sizes There is no word of encourage
ment for the development Of the
country's resources. If we had men
in public life who would take the
same interest in working out these

"The most important force for the
welfare of the nation will come when
the land owners of America are or
ganized," said Mr.. Yoakum. This
organization is important not only
for the benefits which will come to
the farmers but on account of mon
ey which will be saved by the con-
sumers. 1t is not prices received
by farmers which make living ex-
penses high, but the profits of the
dealers handling the foods between
the farmer and consumer.

being driven In the center Of the min
