Napoleon at Elba.

Of Elba, of which he had been made
sovereign by the allies. He was re-

the sovereign whom the chances OF
fortune had just thrown upon their
shores. The former dictator OF Eu-
rope proceeded to organize his little
island realm with the same care and.

Of ACKNOWLEDGMENT he had bestowed

SEE LACK OF COOPERATION
Farmer, Of Southern States Lose $6,-
49,, 000,0 900 Every Year for Want
Of Organization.

Perhaps no one could possibly esti-
mate or approximate In figures the
enormous annual loss to the people
of the United States through the lack
or organization and cooperation. In
q statement recently issued by the
press it Is said that Of the $2,5OO,OOO'
900 spent by southern farmers Tor
farm supplies, food, clothing, etc., 81
O00, 700, 900 of this goes each year In
to the hands of all classes Of middle
men, and that, all told, these farmers
are out $6,163, 900. 900 year, much OF
which they might get II they con-
trolled their own systems of credit,
marketing and buying. These figures
are furnished by Prof. John Lee Coul-
ter, expert special agent for agricul-
ture in the census bureau.
The remedy proposed for most OF
the farmers ills is organization, edu-
cation and cooperation, writes E. M.
Tousley in the Orange Judd Farmer
1t is proposed that he market his crops
comparatively, buy his goods in the
same manner, and borrow his money
from his own cooperative societies.
Such a plan. it is contended, would
harm no one, and in the long run
would benefit all classes. BY thus add
ing to the farmers income. he will be
able to spend more on the pleasant.
as well as on the useful things Of life;
to build better roads; double the mar
ket for manufactured goods, adding
materially to the income Of employees
of city factories; and to maintain bet
ter schools and make country living
generally pleasanter and more profit
| able.
II this estimated loss of Sc, 163, OOO,.
900 a year to the farmers Of the South
alone is anywhere near accurate, what
would the figure be, could we have
a similar estimate of the aggregate loss
to all American farmers and to city
consumers as well through the lack Of
organization, education and co-opera
ton, and just and economic methods
of distribution?
Thinking men everywhere are be
ginning to seriously consider the prob
lem of food distribution by reason o.
the trend Of population to the large
cities In recent years. City people
are apt to think only Of their owl
ills In relation to the high cost OF liv
ing. without taking into proper con
sideration the causes of these ills. Tn
problem of economic living in cite
is irrevocably tied up with better farm
ing, better rural conditions general,
J and proper and efficient systems

The question divides itself into fou
general heads: First, marketing Q
agricultural products at primar
points; second, transportation; third
: wholesaling; fourth, retailing. Thes

BIG HELP OF COOPERATION
Services OF Those Who Did Farmers
Business Dispensed With by Or
oanizatlon Of Producers.

Though the recent sessions in Chi
cago held by the national conference
on marketing and farm credits were
not precisely harmonious at all points,
the primary purpose of the organiza-
ton was we'll reflected. 1t has helped
to make clear how cooperation can
reduce wastes of production and dis
tribution. thus aiding in reducing
prices.
Americans need to be taught how
great these wastes have been. They
need to know that q fair estimate OF
the food products annually wasted In
this country is 40 per cent Of the
whole amount. This Is due to the fact
that the small producer has not been
trained in the art of raising what will
sell best and at the time when 1t is
most needed. Cooperation Is potent
in overcoming this ignorance of mar
keting. Through organization Of the
producers, the services of those who
have done the farmers business are
dispensed with. Dealing is direct with
the consumer and 1t has been shown
that 1000 employees Of one concern in
Chicago have obtained their farm prod
uce at a saving of from 10 to 20 pei
cent by this effective means.
Sir Horace Plunkett Of cooperative
fame attained In Ireland, recently SAID
that not more than 1 per cent OF the
agricultural business of the United
States is done by true cooperation
but that II farmers organizations viii
get things started" in ten years a
least 60 per cent Of the nations agri
cultural business would be done II
this manner.
