SUGAR REACHES GOLDFIELD

That the residents of Goldfield be-
lieve in patronizing home industry

the initial shipment of the sugar to
reach Goldfield. Cremer and Erick-
son state tnat local merchants are

WHAT ADVERTISING DOES.

There il a tendency on the part of

the magazines. newspapers or posters.

The representative for an advertised

the basic emoluments of the former
are usually less than those of the lat

that the speciality salesman always
makes less money. As his line IL easier

White Crows and Good Arguers.
The other day I overheard a woman
correcting her children. Don't argue,
she said. Its vulgar and disagree
able.''
The children had been discussing
some point with a loudness OF tone
and an irritabil:ty Of manner that was
vulgar and disagreeable, but that did
not make the act of arguing wrong in
itself On the contrary, to argue is
healthy for the mind. 1t is to the
mental powers what exercise is to the
physical.
And yet find this prejudice against
arguing IS very common.
Why is it? Perhaps because SO few
people can argue without getting noisy
and excited.
Indeed a man or woman VINO can
argue sancly, courteously, quietly and
intelligently is one Of the greatest rari-
ties in the world.
A sheer is not an argument. Yet
how many people use it as such, and
think because their antagonist natural
ly winces before this poisoned thrust
they have scored a point. I overheard
two people arguing the other day in
regard to a fault of which one was
supposed to be guilty. The one who
was criticized accused his critic OF nav
ing done the same thing. The critic
fairly and squarely freed himself from
the charge, whcreupon his antagonist
foiled Of any fair argument. came back

the critic blushed and became con-
fused and his antagonist looked tri-
umphant. Yet far from tustifyine
himself he had proved himself to my
mind a coward for it is only coward
that is ready to snatch at any weapon
rather than stard up and acknowledge
q defeat, who will use sheer for an
argument.
Another favcrite method is to try to
prove that q thing is SO by proving
| that the opposite IL not SO. When
was a child would sometimes say OF
some alleged misdoing, THAT didn't dc
any harm" Whereupon my grown-uE

HOW CANADIANS WIN OUT.


Proper attention on the part OF the
essential condition Of agricultural sue
cess. He IL. therefore. q trader as well
as q producer. Like the trader OF the
city or the town he must offer his goods
in the most attractive form. In the case
of the farmer it Is necessary to prolong
the existence of perishabN products ny
keeping them In cold storage until the
arrival of the most opportune time TOT
disposing Of them. He neglects his IN
terests II he does not struggle to reah1e
the highest market prices ana the
largest possible measure Of profit. Thus
writes G. A. Gigault. Of the American
Association of Farmers Institute Work
ers, in a bulletin issued by the American
Society for Thrift; and he continues:
To be able to sell to the s. catest ao-
vantage it IL essential that he belong 70
a cooperative association, which is able
to place a refrigerating establishment
at his disposal. as well as the services
of the best experts for the preparat'on'
the conservation and the sale OF MS
products.
Cooperation in Quebec has already
completely transformed the character OF
the dairy industry. So long as butter
and cheese were made at home by the
farmers. the quality of these products
left much to be desired. and they had
to be disposed Of at extremely low
prices. They lacked uniformity ana
could not possibly be utilized in the ex-
port trade. The establishment OF rae
tories operated by capable men anu
utilizing the milk Of several farms mas
resulted in 20 great an Improvement In
the quality of dairy products that they
have become a considerable article OF
commerce.
In the province Of Quebec agricultural
co. operation becomes more and more
popular. Each year at the meetings OF
the dairymen's association the best
cheese makers. as well as their patrons.
reproached the dealers for buying
cheese en- bloc without regard to quail
ity. This system Of buying at an aver
age price paralyzed the teachings Of the
lecturers and professors and delayed
in the quality of dairy
produce. The result was the de-
probation in value Of Quebec cheese,
which sold at price inferior to that of
the Ontario article. 1t was useless for
a manufacturer to improve the quality
Of his cheese, since he could obtain as
high a price for the inferior quality az
for the good grade.
Later a cooperative association was
duly formed. This system has pro-
duced good results. Improvement in
quality always means an increased pro-
duction. Both traders and producers
will benefit, and consumers will have
upon their tables products Of a superior
quality.
