WHERE COOPERATION PAYS
Practical Demonstration Given by
New Jersey Association on Mar
keting Of Farm Products.

The South Jersey Farmers Ex-
change has just given a practical DEM
onstration of the business advantages
of cooperative marketing of farm
products and purchasing of farm sup
plies. The exchange has been operat-
ing for five years. Its capital is about
$4,000. This last year it did a busi-
ness Of over 100000 and made a
profit of So per cent. Its stock shares
have doubled in value; its members
not only have received good prices for
their products, but have bought their
supplies of every sort at rock bottom
prices. The 600 men who make up its
membership are prosperous and well
satisfied with their business.
There could be no better refutation
of the widespread idea that farming
Is profitable for the farmer, provided
the farmer is alert enough to resort to
the methods of modern business. This
is one phase of agriculture that the
marketing experts OF the department
of agriculture are trying to teach to
American farmers.

BETTER CREDIT FACILITIES
ing Organized by University Of
California.

The University of California is or
ganizing a new division of rural in
situations. 1t proposes to attack the
farmers problems In a new and far
reaching way. The work of the new
division will aim at securing better
credit facilities by which the farmers
may obtain money with which to i'm
prove their farms. 1t will work to pro-
vide measures for more direct COM
munication between the producer and
consumer, which will increase the
profits Of the farmer and lessen the
prices to residents of cities. Ii will
include organized aid to new settlers
in securing and establishing homes
and making improvements with less
of hardship and less of haphazard
methods. 1t will not deal with rural
economics or farm management, but
will reach out to farm credits, coop
Grafton, drainage, political, social and
religious life. This new division of the
California university assumes to go
farther than other similar departments
OF universities and make the basis OIL
all progress in country and city life to
be the successful family life. The aim
of the new department seems to be to
try to make sure of the conditions for
the successful American home and
family life, divining that national
wealth. prestige and power will be its
logical concomitants, The methods
and policies of the California univer
sity possibly may involve the larger
view. the broader grasp. but We fail
to appreciate the merits of any meth
cd for dealing with the elevation OF
agricultural conditions which do not
also lay down definite advice and rules
how to get tangible results in dollars
and cents, out of the vocation. These
tangible results will also make for the
happy home and the successful family
life.

NOT AN ABSOLUTE BLANK
Eye Retains Impression Of Last-Seen
Spectacle During the Duration
of Wink.

When a person winks his eyes he
momentarily covers the entire eye
balls, and everything therefore should
turn absolutely black and be in total
darkness for the instant. AS a matter
of fact, he certainly is in total dark
ness, but he is unconscious OF the
same. The reason he is unconscious
is that the eye is incapable OF remov-
ing a certain view from itself until an
eighth of a second has elapsed. So the
view seen just before the ball goes in
to eclipse continues to be seen for an
eighth of a second. But as the eye is
not covered by the lid as long as this,
a new view arrives to supplant the
old view before the old one has van
ished. Thus the darkness is not no
ticed, although there is no doubt that
it exists.
This same popularity of the eye
enables moving pictures to have their
being. 1t also is the reason why a
lighted torch whirled rapidly around
shows a path instead OF a sequence OF
torches. Also why rapidly rotating
wheel does not show its spokes If a
snapshot be taken of such wheel il
does show the spokes, however, and
proves the above fact of persistence
Or of the wheel be viewed by a light
ming flash it shows them.
