For Cooperative Associations.

Nearly every farmer who mas sought
to market his products through COM
mission house, has found the check he
received much smaller than the check
he expected. If the farmer believes all
of the letter which accompanies the
check. he will be convinced that the
consignment of produce he shipped
was not only left in the open to freeze,
but that it also passed through at least
three railroad wrecks and a fire and
possibly fell off the commission house
dray beside The bill OF particulars
which accompanies these short checks
would bring a smile to the face of a
craven image were it not for the fact
that they are fraught with such seri-
Gus consequences for the farmer.
OF course there are honest houses.
brt thew are at a disadvantage in the
connection with the dishonest dealers,
because the farmers do not know them
and The retailer is not concerned with
the question of whether or not the
commission merchant paid for all that
he sells him or paid for a part of them
and stole the rest.
Assistant Secretary w. NJ. Hays Of
the United States department of agri-
culture is q firm believer in the estab-
Iishment OF cooperative associations to
solve the problem of marketing condi-
tons for the farm products of New
England, a problem which apparently
has reached the acute stage" says
New England Farms.
1t seems positive that agriculture in
this section can develop only slowly
and uncertainty under the present
commission house system. This is
not because there are not honest coGn-
mission houses, but because so many
dishonest ones exist. Yet d Few pro-
ducers speak in the highest terms of
some of the concerns. one does 1t
this way: That is the only house l
know where you can ship live poultry
and get satisfactory check the second
time. Most of them send full ac-
counting for the first shipment but, at
ter that, there are reports of numer-
Gus dead fowl, injured legs, frozen
pullcts, and what not, all of which
in, hn
due and unfair payment for the lot
THE one honest concern to which
chance to prove its reliability in the
face of the record Of dishonest con-
Germs. 1t will take a long time for
many Of the farmers to learn that
there is one particularly honest deal
er SO that one must suffer for the
sins of the others. A system should
be devised whereby all the commission
dealers must declare their integrity,
and then the farmers should endeaVor
to do as they would be done by.
EITHER that, or cooperative scheme
established, whereby all the shipping
and marketing shall be done under as
ISOLATION direction and each producer
ass lred of an absolutely fair deal.
Such a method would not be expensive,
and the cause of New England agri-
culture would be immeasureably bene-
fted.''

BagWell had not from the letter he

Cornett, l myself have caught him
with the goods. AS you will see,
where they were best known, that
Whitewashed denial had but little
effect, for those districts went for

districts was Cornett's present home,

district also, and that district is Law
