WHAT ABOUT THE TURKEYS?

Now that it is November and most
of US have begun to think of turkey,
how plentiful is the bird this year
And will the high cost OF living keep
many of us from eating the Thanks
giving delicacy?
1t is almost time for the poultry
dealers to give out the unwelcome re-
port that turkeys are scarcer and
will be even higher in price than last
year" Could it by any chance be pos
sible that this year we will be told
that the markets are so overrun with
turkeys that they will be much cheap
er than usual?

VIEWPOINTS
Cheaper Living in Columbia.

Editor the Missourian: = Why
couldn't the College of Agriculture of
the University sell its products at cost
to the students and boarding houses
to the University students? At pres
ent the products are sold at market
prices to whomever wishes to buy
them. Part of the product is shipped
out of the city. Not everything could
be sold to students or student board
ing houses, but why not sell to them
as much as they could buy?
One of the complaints against the
present economic organization of So
ciety is that it is more complex than
it need be, that prices are high be-
cause goods go through too many
hands. There are too many middle
men making big profit on our goods.
Here the University has a splendid
chance to eliminate the middleman's
profits to the great advantage of stu
dents.
We do not make these assertions
with dogmatic authority but rather
as a suggestion that looks practicable
Our economics department will find
here very immediate and practical
field for investigation. Perhaps this
can give us some help on
this problem. W. N.

A CORDIAL WELCOME.

Before long Missouri will enter
tain Kansas. The Tigers have been
making preparations to entertain the
Jayhawkers on Rollins Field for sew
eral weeks. But the rest of the stu
dents should take upon themselves the
entertainment of the crowds of Kansas
students and visiting alumni.
Columbia and the University are
noted for hospitality. Hospitality is
only real when all take a part in it.
Would it not be a good plan, worthy
of the county and sectional clubs of
the University, to take upon them
selves, through the Ad Club, the en-
tertainment of our guests?

A CENTRAL AMERICAN UNION.

The United States of Central Amer
lea may some day be the name of new
nation The five Central American re-
publics-Guatemala Honduras, San
Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica-
will in all probability finally unite un-
der single ruler. Plans looking to
this end have recently been taken up
by the diplomatic representatives of
the countries in Washington, with the
United States Government acting as
an intermediary.
The plan is not of recent origin
Some thirty years ago, while James
G. Blaine was Secretary of State, the
confederation now suggested was on
the point of adoption Probably the
only thing that prevented it was the
death of President Barrios of Guate-
mala, the leader of the movement.
The combined area of the five coun-
tries is about equal to that of Cali
fornia and they contain about twice
as many people. A union would be of
distinct advantage by giving them
standing among the nations of the
world and making possible greater
economy of governmental administra-
ton. They have much in common in
history and their people are of the
same races. Petty jealousies and a
keen rivalry among the various cities
for the location of the capitol seems
to be the only thing in the way. If
these differences could be adjusted
union ought not to be difficult.

her. 1t has already been demonstra-
ted that scientific methods can be used
to as much advantage on the farm as
in the city shops 1t now remains for
those methods to be applied to house
work The cooperative laundry plan is
a step in that direction and by cutting
down the hours of toll in the home will
make much easier the problem of keep
ing the girls on the farm.
University Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1908-1916, 1913-11-07
COOPERATION IN HOUSEWORK.

Cooperation and efficiency are the
keywords in modern business. They
are as necessary for the housewife as
for the manufacturer or tradesman.
In recent years the farmer has taken
the lead in the application of these
methods to his work, but the wives
of the farmers near Chatfeld, Mimi,
are the lirst to apply them to house
work.
The women of this locality have Or
ganized cooperative laundry plant by
subscription and the laundry work of
the entire neighborhood is now done
at an average cost of 4S cents for
each family. This includes ironing.
Two days of drudgery are thus saved
the women and girls on these farms
by the cooperative method.
Anything which eliminates even a
small part of the routine and drudgery
which the housewife in the rural COM
munity is forced to undergo, helps to
relieve the monotony of her life and
makes farm life more attractive for

Evidence of the Wets Friendship for
the Women Voters

We are reprinting this pho
tographic copy of a letter sent
to the members OF the Forty
seventh general assembly Of
Illinois by the United Societies
Of Chicago, because it reveals
the real attitude of the liquor
interests toward woman sui
frage and is worthy OF a re-
reading in connection with the
letter that appears on the
cover page of this issue. The
United Societies and the Man
ufacturers' and Dealers Asso-
citation are fighting for exactly
the same thing, the perpetual
ton of the saloon business III
the state of Illinois. This let
ter. as will be noted, calls upon
the members of the assembly
to kill certain pending legisla-
ton. The first bill mentioned
as marked for death is House
Bill No. 90. House Bill No.
90 was the woman's suffrage
bill. This letter, considered
with the following excerpt
from the manufacturers and
dealers letter which appears
on the first page of the Issue,
is interesting: 1--WE are going
into the edition to prove that
we are their friends and that
they are ours, &" referring to the
