"Our prairies, our valleys and our up
lands are becoming more and more pro.
dnctive, owing to the scientific methods
that are being introduced, the study of the
SOIL and intensive cultivation. Yet of
what value is intensive farming if markets
are not available? Of what value is inten-
sive farming if, with markets available,
they are of such a character only at price
that they yield u o profit to the producer"
awe believe in organization; we believe
in the organization of the farmer. We have
heard much in years gone by to the effect
that the farmer did not have fair show in
the race for life; and many of us who have
labored long and diligently on the farm,
have seen others outstrip us in the financial
world, may believe that there is some rea-
son for this.
"The trouble so far as it has been ex-
planned by those who have studied this
question closely, is that the line between
the consumer and the producer is too long"
''From the best information that it has
been possible to obtain we are confident, in
fact, we are sure, that more than 900
carloads of produce went to waste, or rotted
in the fields last year. We do not believe
that this was because of over production,
but we believe it was for lack of proper dis
tribution and marketing facilities"
"Last autumn gentleman shipped car
load of apples from Missouri to Madison,
Wisconsin, which he sold to the wholesaler
at 81 per hundredweight, or so cents
hushel The wholesaler to whom he dis
posed of the apples sold them at rs cents a
bushel and the retailer sold them at sl.25a
busbel The amount which the wholesaler
and retailer took at Madison was, therefore,
rs cents per bushel, or $50 per cent above
the amount which the producer received
for raising the crop and transporting same
to Madison"
'Of the two billion five hundred million
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-01-01

"The farmers union has undertaken
big task, to set the price. If had time,
could show you here tonight what cotton Is
worth and that price would be set according
to Gods law, according to the well settled
demand that every man who does some
thing for the country's good gets pay in
proportion to the service rendered"
General decrease in the cost of market
ing would first benefit the farmer by in
creasing his profit. This would stimulate
increased production, which in turn would
result in falling prices, so that ultimately
the consumer would get the full benefit of
the saving effected in marketing"

of which they might
get if they controlled
their own system of
credit, marketing and
buying"
"I look upon the
movement to get a
more direct route be-
tween the producer
and the consumer as
the most vital thing
to be done. l think
the time has come
when every unneces-
sary middleman must
be eliminated. l think
the time has come
when every exorbitant
profit must be elimin-
ated."

n. D. B. Social Well Attended

About one hundred and fifty turned
out to enjoy the old fashioned social
Tuesday evening. After several tests
of intelligence, the guests were re-
Quested to take seats. A we'll chosen
program was then given. The little
Jessens, friedrich and Thora, again cap
tivated the audience with a piano and
violin duet. The next number was
vocal solo, ''Slumber Boat by Mrs.
Arthur Clark. This was the. first op-
portunity that many have had to hear
her and il is needles to say that all
were more than pleased with her sweet
voice. Mrs. J. e. freeman, the only
reader Of the evening, gave Luke
and pleased her audience as greatly as
ever. Mrs. S. M. Ferris, dressed as a
manageable spinster, sang THE Old
Maids Lament Mrs. Ferris most
ably handled this comical song in her
clear sweet voice. This was one OF the
big hits Of the evening. Miss Myra D.
Wiley then, in a pleasing manner rem
dered piano solo ''Roguish Eyes,
With clear strong voice Mrs. Arthur
Tollefson then sang Yesterday and To-
day. She was especially good on the
high notes. coming out with strong. full
voice. Miss Thora Jessen then appeared
as a piano soloist. Miss Thora is GER
tainly a great little musician. and is
gifted with great talent. The final
number was the song Of the Band ''The
Great H. u. B. The words were
