 "I've been away out west, said he.
 "And where were you?' asked his friend.
 "'1n Syracuse said he. And do you know, that merchant smiled a kind of doubtful, polite smile--the sort of q smile which fig Q tribute to ones business rating, and not to ones humor. He didn't see the point at all. But I thought that he was an exception until walked down town with a friend of mine, who is at the head of big commercial organiza tion in the southwest. He specializes in Navajo blankets, and usually gets s35 to $50 for extra good ones from the jobbers here in the east. He called on the jobbers, to look over their stock of blankets, and finding that the man in charge did not know him, he priced the stock.
 CA good blanket. said the man in charge, Is worth from $250 up.'
 "It surprised my friend, for he knew what he sold those same blan' kets to the same firm for. And he asked ths reason. And that fog brained, varnish-headsd, white-eyed salesman told him this, in all serious. ness, and believing every word he said.

A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DlREC

The southern commercial congress
is only little more than three years
old. but has already done enough
work to show that it is one of the
creates factors in bringing the south
TO know its great agricultural and
commercial strength and to compel
the at ention of the world to its ad-
vantag es.
This body initiated the movement
for a committee of two from each
site of the United States to go
alb. cad in 1913, and study the coop
era i've systems so successful in
chez ply financing the needs of farm
ers and land owners. This commit
tee is now being organized, and has
the sanction of the United States
congress. Moreover, President Taft
has recommended that the United
States government adapt this system
to American farming. and incorpor-
ate it into our laws
Under direction from the presi-
dent, our ambassadors are already
at work, preparing the way for this
committees work, especially in Ger
many and France, which nations
have the best systems Of farm f.
nance. and the highest agricultural
proficiency.
1t is we'll also for each state on its
own account to begin an investigation
along these lines, and boards OF
trade. merchants associations, as
we'll as farmers. should begin the
work by getting legislators to study
the work and reports OF this commit
