BOYS AND GIRLS QUIT FARM
Get Ideas Into Their Heads That

Many Of our farm boys and girls
get the idea into their heads that town
life is the ideal life and town society
the only desirable society. Such no
tons cause many farmer boys and
girls to leave the farm for towns and
cities.
Thousands of young people in the
cities are organized into Country

young people in the cities are anxious
to visit the country.

Western farmers have been quite
successful in cooperating In the way
OF manufacturing butter and cheese.
They have found hy experience that
1t Is better to have creamery or a
cheese factory in which the milk can
be worked up into the desired product
comparatively, thus saving labor to
the women folks and paving the way
to a uniform brand of high market
value.
They have been able to cooperate in
the establishment of canning factories
and some up-to-date farmers have
co-operated in selling their eggs,
stamping them with the name of the
farmer and the date, having them
gathered up twice a week. and then
stamped again at the office with the
company brand. They are thus able
to supply strictly fresh eggs to the
grocery or general store in the nearest
town. or for that matter in the dis
tant city. This kind of cooperation
ought to put at least three cents a
dozen on the eggs. perhaps small
matter to the individual farmer. but a
big item t. the community.
The greatest success the farmers
have made in cooperating is in the
marketing of their grain. This is es-
pectally true in the sections largely
given over to grain growing. They
have established cooperative elevators
in great numbers in northern Iowa and
central and southern Illinois. We see
1t reported that at recent meeting of
tia Illinois Farm Elevator association
there were 800 delegates. representing
100 out of the $50 farmers elevators
in the state.
Farmers have not been so success
full in cooperating in buying as in CO
operating In selling, although a num-
Der of the cooperative elevators
buy comparatively such things as salt,
coal. lumber, and in some sections fer
tilizers. In one sense this is a fine
beginning. very large beginning. and
yet after all 1t is only beginning.
The necessities of the farm will COM
pei cooperation to much greater ex-
tent in the future than In the past.
Perhaps nothing but necessity win
drive farmers to 1t. It was necessity
that compelled the western fruit peo-
pie TO cooperate. Otherwise they
were at the mercy of the shipping as
sociations and railroads.
Therefore, we say we are just at
the beginning of cooperation among
farmers; and the sooner it comes, the
better. BY and by we shall learn to
cooperate in buying as well as in SELL
ing, and thus eliminate much of the
cost OF distribution in the cities, which
perhaps does more than anything else
to prevent the farmer from getting a
fair return for his labor.

government activity should be center

that win encourage development
