HE ALWAYS MAKES GOOD.

Rooseyelt's confession OF faith
which was made in his speech on last
Tuesday at the progressive conyen-
ton has attracted general attention
In all parts of the country. The peo-
PIE know and feel that the ex-presi-
dent means just what he says. They
have an all-abiding faith in his
promises and in the integrity of his
character. AS a result they will
stand by him in this political crisis.
for they know him as he is-the
man who will guide the ship of state
out of the stormy sea of adversely
back to the harbor OF prosperity
Colonel Roosevelt has only one
class OF enemies, and they are the
politicians who hope to gain by hav-
ing their man elected, but the rank
and file are with the progressive
candidate-the man of the hour,
who has promised relief from the in
tolerable conditions which surround
us at the present time. 1t must be
admitted that the ex-president is the
strongest character in public life in
this country at the present time. The
people know him to be true and hon
orable in all things; they have good
reasons for such an opinion as they
Judge the future by the past.
As police commissioner in New
York Roosevelt made good Again
he made good as he in person led
the storming party up San Juan Hill.
When he returned to New York he
once more made good by riding the
Tammany Tiger and capturing the
goyernorship Of the state. In the
presidential campaign of 1900 he
again made good, in 1904, he once
more made good by leading the re-
publican host to victory. Can any
body doubt his ability to once more
make good by leading the people
against the bosses in the campaign
of 1912?

thousands Of dollars worth OF 1t to

ods.
It hardly seems creditable that
farmers otherwise bright and intel
ligent, will persist in following the
old ruts year after year. They do not
seem to realize that the methods used
by our forefathers, in the care OF
manure were costly, and that by a
small investment of time and money
SHELTER can be provided for the stock
and the manure pile. which will save
the hundreds OF dollars they are now
losing.
Experts figure that cattle manure
is worth s2.02; horse manure, s2.21;
hog manure, 1929; sheep manure,
$3.50; liquid manure, 81, and chick
en- manure. s7.O7 per ton, aside from
the humus in them. In year a horse
produces s27, COW $40, a hog s12
and a sheep 81 worth OF manure.

STOCK GROWING PROFITABLE.

Stock growing will become a popu-
lar business in Josephine county in
the near future. With plenty of alfalfa
and other forage the business will in .
crease from year to year, and the up
ward tendency Of meat prices will
make the business highly profitable
The price Of meat is rapidly ad-
vanclng in all the cities, both east
and west, and as long as this state
OF affairs exists stock raising will be
a highly profitable occupation in this
part OF the Rogue River valley. The
scarcity OF cattle and the increasing
population are said to be responsible
for the high prices which prevail.
James A. Patten, a prominent fig
ure In the Chicago Board OF Trade,
states that two successive bumper
crops are necessary before there can
be a material change in meat prices.
He declares that It must be so plen-
tiful as to be fed to stock to sell at
profit. Mr.. Patten's opinion would
be worth something If he had taken
Into consideration the constant in
crease in population. What is need
ed is more stock farms and stock
growers and also bumper crops and
until We get them meat products will
be high priced.

that is the price which the different
grades will bring, as that is not yet
determined. But the quality is such
that will cause the crop 10 command
the highest price the market affords.
Mr.. Burke says that pears will. be
picked next week, but just what day
the first carload will be shipped has
not yet been learned Talking Of the
fruit question the inspector SAYS that
our several thousand acres Of new or
chards will come into bearing next
year, and that two years from now
these will produce an additional fifty
two thousand boxes. The grape
vineyards viii also come into bearing
next year and for years to come will
continue TO produce increasing crops.
All things considered, he is Of the
opinion that the fruit outlook for the
county Is very promising, but he SAYS
much depends on cultivation and

POPULAR METHODS OF TRAVEL

POPULAR METHODS OF TRAVEL.
1t is often remarked of late that
there is an unusual number of can
yassed covered wagons passing
through the city this summer. Every
day some few arrive and depart going
either east or west and some days a
dozen or more can be counted. These
rigs contain as a rule, whole families
and are loaded with camp equipage
and forage for teams There is GER
tainly double the number passing
this year that there was last. When
we add to this class of transporta-
ton the hundreds OF automobiles go
ing through every month It proves
that this is an unusual summer for
travel OF this Kind. II Is said that
those going by teams are searching
for locations, while the automobile
traveller is pleasure bound The
former purchase many articles from
our stores. while the latter largely
patronize the hotels Both OF these
classes Of travellers appear to take
/ pleasure in being Independent of the
railroads

NEWS FROM THE POLITICAL
CENTER.

News from the political center in
Washington indicates that no big
guns will be fired until some weeks
later possibly not until the first OF
October In republican quarters
there is much speculation as to the
probable strength of the bull moose
movement. 1t is said that republi-
cans in every direction are awaiting
developments OF the Roosevelt party
before declaring their course as vot-
ers. Bourke Cochran, the most elo-
Quent political orator OF the country,
has announced that he will support
Colonel Roosevelt. He will do spec
ial work and will attack Wilson and
raft on every occasion, when cir
cumstances are favorable.

Ms Mr.. Aver treats the subjeeI |
fully. but the Courier only desires 10
give one phase of this communica-
tion and that is the cooperation oil
producers, which has resulted in max
ing the business not only reliable
and profitable to the producers but
also TO dealers and consumers. The
method employed is what is known
as the Dassel Cooperative Egg Pro-
ducing association, at Dassel, Mime
sofa. a group OF farmers organized
with the sole object, Mr.. Aver says
of putting eggs OF better quality on
the market in better and more
profitable manner.
Quoting from the communication
we find the method explained as fol-
lows:
They have been most successful
| in their undertaking. This associa-
ton is strickly cooperative; its oo-
ject is to place a product on the
market guaranteed to be strictly
fresh. uniform in color, shape and
size. and thereby to secure higher
prices for a better product.
Each member of the association
signs a contract and agrees to fol-
low the requirements of the associa-
tion, which are;
First, to gather eggs daily, to
pack all eggs in cartons (paper boxes
holding one dozen each), to put in
each carton only clean fresh eggs Of
uniform color, shape and size.
Second, to stamp each egg with
the association brand and his own
number and to deliver same for ship
ment at specified dates. This method
enables the association to- guarantee
their eggs, and if any are found in
any carton that are not up to the
grade, the numbers and brand on the
egg identify 1t and enable the associ-
alton to place the blame on the pro-
ducer responsible for it.
During the first eight months of
the existence Of this association its
members increased from sixty to
eighty.
twenty-five thousand dozen of
eggs were handled, which brought its
mcmbers $4,S40, or twenty-five cents
per dozen, while the same eggs, If
sold in the old way would have
brought but $3,740, or seventeen
cents per dozen, making a difference
of $1,1OO, or $1j.71 for each day
of the seventy members. This addi
tional amount of 50 per month per
member was secured simply by plac-
ing clean, fresh eggs on the market,
instead of marketing them in the old
careless way.
"The same method of marketing
is now practised in several places in
Minnesota in connection with the co.
operative creameries and is bringing
equally satisfactory results.
Such cooperative effort opens up
many possibilities to the commun-
tiles embracing its opportunities.
Clocks may be unified and bred up
SO that the eggs from that commun-
ity will be uniform in color, size,
shape, ETC. and in accordance with
the demands of the markets
Most of the waste and dissatisfac-
tion in handling between the pro-
ducer and consumer can be elimin-
ated and the farmer enabled to get a
better price for his product and the
consumer valued received for his
money"

its purity depends the purity Of the ma

has served to make Calumet Baking
Powder so much Of a favorite with the
critical cooks of the country, Is the fact
that Calumet is pure from stare to finish
You can rely on Calumets parity for

the fact that Calumet never falls. Every
