FEELING STRENGTH OF UNION
Various Ways In Which Term "co-
operation" Can Be Applied and
What Il Means.

Applied to organizations, this term
Cooperation" which we so often use,
frequently comes to have a limited
meaning. Broadly speaking, to coop
crate signifies to work together; but
very often when cooperative organ.
ization' or cooperative movement"
is spoken Of, only financial co-opera-
tion is thought of, that is, buying and
selling in a kind Of partnership. This
places a restriction upon a word which
admits of a much more generous in
depreciation, writes Jennie Buell. in
the Michigan Farmer.
Suppose the original intent of the
organization was to promote financial
profits. Despite this possibility, in
most cases, larger and more desirable
objects still will result as they must
result whenever men and women work
together for worthy cause. Cooper
alton for money profit, If entered into
upon a basis OF obtaining justice for
all, demands that the co-operators
shall respect one another's rights and
privileges. There soon develops
recognition of dependence upon one
another. Respect for differences of
opinion follow and the value of uniting
forces on broader grounds than here
tofore is soon approached. Even
when the incentive to combine efforts
Is an entirely selfish motive, this very
means may grow into a conviction
that the cooperation of mind with
mind is something of more value than
that of muscle with muscle, or dollar
with dollar; and that ballot co-operat-
ing with other ballots will achieve
more than the loudest shoutings of one
voice alone.
After working together with others
for a common purpose 1t becomes ap-
parent that to cooperate" may mean
buying and selling together, working
together In the bayfield, or In a lodge
room, in a home or in a community;
1t may mean mingling together for
recreation, or even for thinking to-
gether II means that when women
get up a sumptuous Grange feast, they
cooperate" in doing so quite as much
and as surely as do their husbands
when they buy a car of coal or sell
stock together. In any and all of
these lines of cooperation people feel
the strength of union, Of harmony, of
effort, and the strong bond that comes
with service in common. Separate
from others, our lives run to waste,
but we we're made to combine with
others and to find scope for our pow
ers in administering to their well-be-
ing"

Advertise Your Town

The trade territory of a town is
not all dependent upon the distance
to neighboring trading points. The
trade territory depends upon the
enterprise of the merchants Of the
town. If a town does not reach
after the trade it will come only as
fast as it has to, and it will grow as
it is forced to. But if the .mer-
chants go after business in the sur
rounding country, advertising in
every way possible, and making
good every word of their advertis-
ing, trade will come from an ever
increasing radius, the town will
gam a reputation for being awake
and it will forge to the front. 1t
is the men living within a certain
number of miles from 1t that makes
the town.

DUTY RESTING UPON FARMER
Soil, Which Yields Subsistence TO
Mankind, Should Be Conserved
and Not impoverished.

There is one duty that rests upon
the farmer, and that is, he should
protect the soil. That which yields
the means of subsistence to mankind
should be conserved and not impov-
erished, as unfortunately is true to
large extent. Nature is generous,
and should we prove ungrateful? Not
only all existence depends upon the
soil, but the life of future genera
tions as well. The law, by heavy
penalty prevents our taking anything
which belongs to another, without his
consent, II living. Shall we rob our
children and our childrens children
by taxing the substance from the soil,
leaving to them a legacy of impover-
ished land?
It has been argued that the farmer
will river organize and work in har-
Rbnw believe he will Our school
system is getting away from the dead
languages to living problems. Reason
is asserting itself over matters of au-
thority. Educataen will in the future
be the useful. Nrming is a science,
and the day will come when a knowl-
edge of the soil and its products will
command more respect than a knowl-
edge of Greek and Latin, and skull
full Of classical learning, memorized
from the ancient order, writes Frank
A. Collins in the Groesbeck (Texas)
Journal. The march of science is

Piled to the soil 1t will bring about
organization, not ruled by prejudice.

tor, for it cannot be muzzled A col

there should be warfare between the

COOPERATION ON THE COAST
Ter Farmers in California, Owning
1000 Acres Of Land, Merge Hold
ings Into One Farm.

The spirit of cooperation has al,
ways been an element in the upbuild'
Ing OF California where everybody be-
heVes in putting together instead Of
working criss-cross as they do in this
country. Ten farmers in the San Joa-
Quin valley owning 1900 acres have
thrown their holdings into one big
farm as a matter of economy in the
cost of operation. Instead of having
ten farms, therefore, each with a com
plement of teams and men with a lot
Of expensive machinery, the big ranch
has been put under one overseer, and
the saving in machinery, horses and
other incidentals is a big item. A
huge gasoline tractor was put to
work and the land was plowed and
leTeled. In the almost exact middle
Of the big alfalfa tract, at a point suf-
iciently elevated, half-acre concrete
lined reservoir was built and from
this leads one of the best and most
eIaVorate concrete pipe systems Of ir-
rigauon. Water can be turned on at
almost any desired spot of the land
through a perfect maze of gates, and
The nVe pumps, working all at once,
VIII furnish over 1000 gallons of wa
ter minute. The system of consoli.
dauon has proven an immense sue
cess and in the work which has been
done thus far of leveling and seed
ing Ihe tract, the saving has been
several thousand dollars. The scheme
has Lhe advantage of both large and
small farming.

DAIRY cow IN THE SUMMER
Fly Pests and Drought-strlcken Pas.

Animals Comfortable.
CBy r.. G. wEATHERsToNEJ

Wy ~ W. w bA CANHNsJ
The late summer months are the
most critical time of the year for the
dairy cows and the most trying time
for their owner. Fly pests and
drought-stricken pastures are dlscdur-
aging to a dairyman. Everything pos.
sible should be done to reduce the
loss and suffering of the cattle during
this period. find that 1t pays to keep
the cows inside during the heat OF
the day and feed supplemental forage
crops and little grain feed.
The sight of herd of cattle stamp
ing flies in a drought-stricken pasture
does not speak favorably of profits
and comfort have never been in
favor of growing acres of forage crops
and catch crops for soiling purposes,
for on the average farm 1t is not nee.
essary.
However, It does pay to hold over
an abundance of ensilage and cut
either alfalfa, clover or corn to feed
the cows when the pastures are fail
ing. No catch crop exceeds these reg.
ular crops in the amount or quality
of forage yielded per acre and when
they are harvested in the ordinary
way they will furnish the best feed for
the herd during the winter.
In trying to save tons of hay and
bushels of grain for winter feeding
many men allow dollars of immediate
profit to slip through their fingers, by
holding back these crops for winter
feeding when their animals are suf-
fering and falling away in flesh con-
dition
II is far more sensible to cut and
feed a portion of the green feed than
it is to take the land out of the regu.
lar rotation and grow supplemental
crops that are less desirable for soil
ing purposes. II seems difficult to
impress It upon the average mans
mind that the best winter feeding
crops are the best selling crops.
