Where The Profit Goes

1t costs the American farmer, and
particularly the Southern farmer, too
much to market his crops. The
transportation companies and the
middlemen get too large proportion
of what the consumer pays. This is
n field for most useful and effective
work on the part of governmental
agencies and cooperative farmers
organizations. The work of the Far
mers' Union and other forces has at
last had an apprecintive effect in
starting thought and action towards
improvement in this line; but the
farmer suffers great loss in the mar
keting of his produce with which the
middlemen and transportation com
panies cannot be charged. The farmer
has given little. and too frequentl,
no attention to market conditions OF
demands. He has not given sufficient
attention to putting his products on
the market in an attractive or con-
venient form or package.
The manufacturer and the merchant
study the wants and the fancies of
the consumers or buyers. No wise
merchant buys an article because he
thinks his customers ought to want
it. He seeks to buy what they want
and give it to them the way they
want it. If they buy red apples best,
he gives them red apples, or if the
Southern farmers want one horse
plows. the manufacturer gives them
one horse plows.
Many farmers have insisted on put
ting molasses in jugs, apples in
crates, butter in cloths and numerous
other articles in forms which the
buyer have shown they did not want.
We have also too often been salts
fled with the marketing of low grade
or cheap product. The proportion
taken as their toll by the handlers is
always greater on n cheap product
than on high priced product 1t
cost little more TO transport and sell
pound of good butter put up in II
desirable package than it does II
pound of poor butter tied up in a rag
or packed in Jar. We must give
more heed to what the buyers think
they want and to the marketing OF
our produce in the most convenient
and attractive form. We must put
higher quality products on the mar
ket, strive more to please the con-
sumner and think less of our own con-
venience.
If / hire to "work" for another,
do what he wants me to do and in the
manner he wants it done, just so long
as these are honorable. The grower
of farm products is simply working
for the consumer and he should pro
duce what the consumer wants ant
market it the way he wants it.-Tait
Butler. in the Progressive Farmer.

SOCIALISM GROWING

That Socialism is growing rapidly
was apparent in the recent election.
In 1908 the Socialist vote in this
Country was nearly 435 thousan d..
This year, 1912 it exceeds CTS, 900.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared over and over
again that Rooseveltism was the only
cure for Socialism,, but it is not 'ce-
able that in the strongholds of Roose-
veltism, where his fake cures were
best advertised Socialism made great
gains in Pittsburg, Philadelphia,
Chicago and California. Rooseveltism,
as remedy. eff not worse than the
disease, seems to promote, rather
than hinder its growth.

DIFFERENTIATED

When the Roanoke Times of last
Friday came to this sanctum our at
tention was called to the editorial,
"The Bryan Myth" the editorial
temper began to climb up. The Clinch
Valley News was coming off the press
and could not he stopped, and so we
could do nothing but think, and the
more we thought the hotter we got.
We determined to smizzle the
Roanoke Times and consign MIR.
Williams to that bourne of oblivion
from which the poets say few travel
ers ever return. We knew we could
do it. The oblivion stunt was deferred
to Monday morning to allow our col
lar little time to cool. We watched
the daily papers. Not a one of them
noticed the affront to Mr. Bryan
ignored it, treated it with absolute,
tho not unmeaning, silence. They
were expecting us to- tend to" brother
Williams, and we gladly assumed the
responsibility. On Monday morning
we hustled, in fact, rushed into the
Office earlier than usual, threw off
our coat, dashed our hat down with a

ming like top. The boys began to
move TO the far end of the Office.
They said in whispers, "the boss is
wrong this morning, better look out :"
We were hot in the colar-siZzling
like lard III frying pan over a hot
fire. Grabbing we'll sharpened PEN
Gil, we began, as follows:
'1n the course of human events it
often becomes necessary under con-
ditiuns. to call man a liar, one of
said conditions being that said man
shall be at the far end of the line, !"
when something happened. There was
flash, a sizz-a puff of smoke, and
the electric motor nearby which
drives the typesetting machine, bust

result of heat from the EDITORS desk,
we are unable to say But that end
ed it. New arrangements had to be
made. We trust our loyal con-
temporaries will take up the thread
of our thought where it broke off,
and finish up the job.

The Old Nanny

The chord OF affection between the
black nanny and her white folks has
often been well-nigh as strong as the
feeling between mother and child.
Sometime ago old Aunt Amanda, a
negro nanny, lay dying in New
Orleans hospital. In the old days she
was slave in one of the sugar
parishes of Louisiana. When her be-
loved mistress died, she cared as ten
derby for the children of the dead
woman as she could. The family
scattered, the two daughters making
their homes in Louisiana, and the son
going to Chicago. The news of the
mortal illness of the "Old M ammy"
brought to her bedside ore of her old
mistress's daughters who was weight
ed down down with the RESPONSE
bilites of her own large family. The
other daughter, unable to leave, sent
her friend, Christian minister. to
offer prayer for and to administer the
sacrament to the dying woman. The
son, who lives in Chicago, received
news in Pittsburg of her impe nding
end, while on a bus ness trip, and at
once journeyed to New Orleans to see
his old nanny before she died. This
same son. some years before, re-
linquished his share in his father 8
estate, so that his old nanny might
be cared for in her declining years.
Old nanny went peaceful lily to sleep,
happy in the love of old Nj ISIS 8 chillun.
Hers was the simple faith and hers
the kind heart that memory holds in
honor forever. Times Dispatch.

A CONTEST

General Ayers is qouted as saying
that the election of Mr. Slcmp will
be contested upon the charge that
whiskey and money was used in parts
of the district, the fair election COM
pact being violated. AS we under
stand it General Ayers said that the
question of contest would be left
with the committees, but that he felt
it to be his duty to investigate the
charge, and do what he could to bring
the violators to the bar. If nothing
short of Jail sentence or heavy
fines or both. will stop corruption in
elections let them come, thick and
fast.

ABSOLUTELY FREE

There are very few things in this
world that can be had absolutely free.
The most gracious and the freest gift
costs the taking, the acceptance.
Here Is suggestion of a valuab lie
gift almost absolutely free: Send
your name and address on a postal
card to Prof. Fletcher, Blacksburg,
and to Geo. W. Koiner, commissioner
of Agriculture, Richmond, and ask
them to put you on the list for the
bulletins they publish. You will get
regularly valuable papers on farming,
stock raising, etc., information which
every farmer needs and needs badly.
The difference between q successful
and unsuccessful farmer, in the last
analysis after all, is the difference
between what they know. 1t is sur
prsing the amount of information to
be picked up by giving even a little
time to reading agricultural litera-
ture. The long winter evenings are
here. There will be ample time for
reading. The Southern Planter for
50cs, the Progressive Farmer for
$1.0O.SIhe Home and Farm and Far
mers' Digesss Southern RuraIist and
others-all cheap and of the very
highest value ITO the farmers, are
within the Teach of everybody.
Reading makes>a full man." One
man makes SO bushels of corn to the
acre, his neighbor on the same quail
ity of land makes about 20 bushels.
One man knew how. The other did
not. He did his best and deserves
credit. but he is to be pitied-he
doesn't know how, and the worst part
Of, 1t he wont try TO learn.
Keep in touch with the experiment
stations. Read Agricultural papers.
Scientific farming is only common
sense farming, and common sense is
said to be an uncommon thing. The
right way is the beet way and also
the easiest. Try to know. Determine
to know. knowledge first hand i.
within the reach of all, these days.
Write for the bulletins.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

And the women, tool They won
four more States November 9th. viz
Michigan, Arizona. Oregon and Kan
sas. In California, COLORADO, Idaho,
Utah, Washington and Wyoming
female suffrage already existed.
Tuesdays victories give the fair sex
ten States committed to woman
suffrage. The world moves. The re-
suits in these ten States will have a
determining influence upon the future
of the movement. If the women behave
themselves decorously, as they usually
always do, they may finally win out
but many young men will be gray
and bald headed before universal
suffrage wins in this country.

Z No charge Is - be made against
Mrs. George Lander OF Pittsburgh for
bringing Jewels into the country, the
duty on which was $1,000. But 1t Is
understood that Mrs. Lauder will not
attempt to protest against the payment
OF the big duty
Collector Loeb said this morning that
the incident was c'Dsed. 1t had been
. case OF Misunderstanding. not misrep-
resentauon on the part of Mrs. Lauder,
VINO had entered the country several
times before with the same jewels and
had never paid any duty on them. They
are worth about $4,000.
The Ladders arrived on the Baltic
Saturday with Andrew Carnegie,
brother-in-law OF Mr.. Lauder. Mrs.
Lauder wore many Of her jewels and
had others IN her baggage and had
declared none OF them. A deputy sur
veyor Of the port asked her to accom-
pany him to the office OF Surveyor OF
the Port Nelson II. Henry She was sur
prised. but consented to do SO. She said
that she had owned the Jewels for
years-ten years--,and had entered the
country with them on several occasions.
She admitted that no duty had ever
been paid on them and she was told
that there had been an oversight In the
matter which would have to be rem
edied Immediately.
The duty OF $1,000 was levied and
paid and Mrs. Lauder, her husband
,their son and daughter left for Pitts
burgh. Tho only unplel SAINT incident In
the affair for Mrs. Lauder was the fact
that she was III after the voyage and
had little disposition for talking ovei

PORT OF COOS BAY NOT VOTED.

Peoples Choice.

Marshfield, Ore.-The final re-
turns show that the proposed new

ial election Tuesday by a large ma
jority. The vote for the port was

At the same time the voters ex-
pressed their choice for port COM

ing the largest number of votes.
There were II candidates and those
chosen were: l.. P. Simpson, mayor
of North Bend; Peter Loggie, North
