QUALITY SELLS EVERY TIME
Farmer That Produces First Class AT
tcle Has Least Fault to Ftno
With Market Price.

We hear great deal nowadays
about the necessity of organization
among producers in order to secure
market Societies Of Equity anu
Farmers Alliances are forming ali
over the country with the centrai
thought of holding produce, and mus
forcing a market by creating snort
age Now, | am firm believer in or
ganization among producers In order
to help individual members, yet | hoid
that the real benefit to be derived from
such organization lies, not in the pow
er that may come from combination, as
against the middlemen and ultimately
against the consumer, but in the ed
ucation and personal assistance the
organization may render its members
in producing a superior article ana III
structing them along the lines OF eco
nomical production and final market
ing of their produce, writes w y. SUD

ing.
Quality Will always command mar
ket and other things being equal. Will
sell first as against quantity. Ii mas
always been first thought In my
life, how to produce first class ar
ticie," no matter what, because | have
found that when | succeed in doing
so had no difficulty in finding a buy
er. Buyers are always on the qul
vive for quality. My good father used
to say that "he was farthest from
market who had nothing to sell that
the other fellow wanted" In these
days of rapid transportation buyers are
securing the earth for quality, and are
paying the top of the market for II
when they find it. All the producer
has to do Is to grow the quality and
let 1t be known that he really has the
goods, and he will be sold out even
before the stuff is matured.
The central idea in the potato bake
We pulled off during the Dry Farming
Congress was to show that our local
products were the best that could be
produced We served 5000 free
lunches, and the constant remark |
heard while attending the shows east
this fall was: Those spuds were sure
good" That Billings Creamery but
ter is all right" Those weiners were
fine" and Montana cider is most as
good as champagne"
That's the way TO get people to talk
ing, and they will buy the goods and
pay top prices for them.
We hear a great deal of criticism of
the middlemen which is wholly I'm.
just in many cases have found that
this dissatisfaction was generally due
to a misunderstanding of the situation.
The middleman cannot create mar
ket, he simply supplies the demand,
and no matter how much he may adj
vertise his wares, If they have not
quality he will find them a drug on
the market. It's quality that sells all
the time, and this phase of the ques-
ton lies with the producer and not
with the middleman. The farmer that
produces a first class article has the
least fault to find with the market.
His greatest complaint is that he can
not raise enough to supply the de-
mand.

RAILROAD DEATHS
ON THE INCREASE
According to Figures, Safety
Devices Fail to Stop
Casualties.

The railroads of the country killed
1854 persons last year and manned and
otherwise injured S2,374 more. There
was an increase in the number of both
the killed and injured.
At the same time the above figures
were given out by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, the figures showing
the number of accidents on the various
roads and the amount Of damage done
TO the physical property OF the car
riers We're made public.
Instead Of the death rate decreasing
on the railroads through the use OF
more steel passenger coaches and other
safety devices. as confidently expected,
the casualty total has seriously in
creased in the past year
In the year 1903, 2,19I people were
killed by the transportation companies
and $500 people injured This shows
that the past year developed an increase
in the dead Of lob and in the injured
Of 1854. In no past year has the in
crease over the year preceding Il been
so great as that Of 1910 over 1909.
During the past year there We're 1851

the casualty reports made by the roads

of 433 persons and iniuring 776J with a
damage to the property OF the railroads
Of A629,ZIs. This Is an Increase Of !, 40

In the same period there were 5.elS
derailments, or an increase over the
preceding year Of $50 There were $40
people killed In derailments and ASA
injured, an increase Of 70 in the number
killed and 673 in the number injured.
The figures given out by the COM
mission include in the total persons kill

rious roads. Casualties among this
class form very large percentage of
the whole.
