RuiIt Shlps In the Woods.

In Colonial days the shipping for
our homo trade and for sale abroad
was built chiefly In the. district of
Maine and in New Hampshire. These
two colonies built rather more than
one-half the entire American tonnage
in the days Immediately preceding
the Revolution. The older ports
could not compete with the new set
Elements amid the timber.
When the great trees had been ex-
hausted on the river banks, gangs
of shipwrights went mile or two
into the forests, and here on the up
lands they would build a vessel of
100 tons or more, mount her on strong
,sledges of timber, hitch on a team
of 200 oxen and drag it In one steady
pull over the snow to the frozen sur
face of a navigable stream.
Such a team of oxen would be a
quarter Of mile long, and 1t took
the teamstership of a major general
to start them all at once. 1t was
called raising them" and this work
once done nothing must stop them till
the ship rested on the Ice.

FAILURES OF MANY FARMERS
Trouble May Easily Be Traced Back
to Poor Management and tho
Lack Of Cooperation.

We're we to sum up the failures OF
many of our farmers elevators we
could easily trace the trouble back to
poor management and lack Of har-
mony on the part of the shareholders,
writes G.. Bolles in the Farm, Stock
and Home. Quite often all goes well
until a competing elevator raises the
price and then many give their own
elevator the go by in order to grab the
unwarranted raise. Another potent
factor is trying to work on too close
a margin instead OF taking good
margin and giving 1t back in larger
dividends. No one ever made any
thing in cutting prices-at least not
in the elevator business.
Actual cases in our section serve
to illustrate these points. One asso-
citation used n four per cent margin
and shipped out the grain as soon as
possible. We're stockholder to ship
on his own hook he'd pay a cent and
half elevator charges while an outsid-
er paid three cents for the Same priv
ilege. Although at times there were
variances in the prices of this and
the old elevator yet the farmers took
only their accustomed margin and
stopped at that. In addition to han
ding grain this elevator also ran side
lines OF hardware mad lumber. There
We're cases where farmers saved FIVE
dollars on n thirty-five dollar imple-
ment and twenty-five dollars on a one
hundred and fifty dollar building. This
elevator ran for several years and
paid from three to twenty-three per
cent. dividends, but in the end it came
to grief through poor management
and trouble among the shareholders.
The adjoining town had $4,000 paid
in and then borrowed enough to build
$4,000 elevator and have a bit to
start on. After running four years
this farmers elevator had accumu-
lated $4,000 worth of debts and a heap
of Indifference among the sharehold-
ers. The result was that the building
was sold for the Indebtedness. This
failure could be traced to very poor
management guessing at the weight
of each car shipped out using too
distant markets. dabbling on the
street" and buCking an old time ele-
vator, its competitor.
One significant fact was brought ont
in this case. AS soon as the elevator
changed hands the new owners broad
ened his grain margin by five cents
and enough on live stock to make him
decidedly safe.
A neighboring village TO these two
mentioned, ushered in a farmers ele-
vator under almost the Identical con-
ditions as given In the last instance.
Yet In this case they have had good
managers and shareholders who have
stuck together, They have paid dIvi-
dends, often reaching seventeen per
cent and have brought grain and pro-
vision values to where they should
be. In addition to grain this farmers
elevator also handles fruits, vegeta-
bles and live stock.

WHAT ALL STATES REQUIRE
Citizens Of Every Commonwealth
Should Read Carefully and Heed
Advice Of Professor Holden.

Professor Holden of Iowa Is quoted
as saying to an Iowa farmers meet
ing:
But why direct our energy In a
warfare out of which can come no
good Let all stand for a bigger,
greater Iowa. We need to be up and
making Iowa sentiment. That is
what is most needed now. California
would almost die were it not for senti-
ment. We need Iowa sentiment. We
should sing 1t. preach 1t, teach It,
write 1t. We want to use Iowamade
goods and eat Iowa grown products.
You understand that when We buy I'LL
nois-made goods, then Illinois has the
money and we have only the goods. II
we buy Iowa-made goods, then Iowa
has both the money and the goods.
As Iowa becomes a great agricultural
state. it will become, II the proper SEN
timent is built up, a great manufactur-
ing state. We want the men here
making goods and eating our products.
We need to build up our social sentl-
ment in every neIghborhood. Iowa
must be more social In Michigan
there is an average of thirty-ave So
cial and educational clubs in every
county, and we don't hear of farmers
moving out of Michigan very much,
and you don't see the farmers chill
dren moving into cities and towns.
Sentiment, social and educational life,
need our attention more than Jealous
pickering"
Every citizen In every state should
carefully read and heed the advice
given by Professor Holden.

| II Union of America
Matters Of Especial Moment to
J the Progressive Agriculturist

Have something to work for-and
then work for 1t.
Age gives good advice when 1t is no
longer able to give bad example.
A well-fixed farmer is usually a good
one-well-hxed because he is good.
1t doesn't pay to make slave OF
yourself. no matter how good the pay
Is.
Nobody ever fixed up dring for
hot weather that beat pure cold water
and no one ever will.
Don't swallow financial news or
stock quotations as they are fed to
you In the newspapers.
There are few people who never
wear out; bat there are plenty of them
who rust and rot out.
One of the first things man who
intends to be popular must learn is
to play to the gallery.
Mine persons out 70 a possible ten
are dissatisfied either with what they
have or with what they haven't"
Take an invoice OF your property
once year, so you will know what
you are worth in dollars and cents.
Give the boys chance to make
good on the farm before they have a
chance to make bad somewhere else
No matter how accommodating a
neighbor may be IL he is careless
about his livestock you wish for more
distance between you.
The man with clear conscience
and patches on his trousers gets more
out of this world than the man who
goes beyond his means to be fashion
able.
The only kind of grating the coun-
try will stand for, Is that practiced
by farmers In their orchards in the
spring. and 1t is the only kind that
pays.
The world has for US Just what we
have for 1t. 1t Is a great whispering
gallery which filings back the echo OF
our voices. II we laugh. 1t laughs
back: II we curse It curses back.
Don't stick at home every day all
through the summer. The wife and
the boys and girls will be brighter
and fresher for good work II they get
fine ride or nice little trip occa-
sionally.

TO THE INEXPERIENCED GROWER
The Publisher Of This Paper Wants
the Farmer to Get the
Best Results.

Never bale crooked with your
straight broom corn; separate it when
seeding or baling. Black or badly off
color or damaged should always be
baled in bales by itself Growers who
do not follow above instructions are
always the losers. To fill bales or
stuff them with scrapings from the
seed piles or with seed. is a
fraudulent act. and subject to penalty.
Growers should place tags under
the wires of each bale, giving their
name and address in full.
We sincerely trust broom corn grow
ers who are subscribers to our paper
Will find the broom corn harvesting
and handling instructions of suffic.
tent value and Importance to give the
matter serious consideration, as we
are truly interested in seeing our
farmers get all possible there is in
their farm products.
