WATCH THE COMMISSION MEN
Middleman Has Dodeed Questions Of
Farmers for Years-Many Evils
Neglected Too Long.

The perennial question OF making
commission men toe the mark must
be tackled in earnest. While it is
folly to lay all the blame for discrep-
ancy between what the producer re-
ceiyes and the consumer pays at the
door Of the commission merchant. the
last named has things to answer for.
He has lodged the questions of farm
ers for years, and it Is time for legis-
lation that will hold him responsible.
New York's new law is being
watched with great interest. II states
that no one can deal in produce on
commission In the state without first
giving bond TO the state for $4,000. II
the commission merchant deals un'
Justly with any shipper whose goods
are consigned to him II is only neces,
sary for said shipper to complain In
writing to the department Of agricul'
ture at Albany, n. Y. The state au-
thorties will investigate, and II 1t ap-
pears the commission man did wrong.
he may be compelled to forfeit his
bond, give up his license and 60 out
OF business. To profit by this new law
farmers must mark shipments with
to be sold on commission Each
shipment should also bear the full
name and address of shipper and be
accompanied by letter of advice to
the commission merchant.
While the law is not perfect. 1t Is
fine start, and is as much to the ad-
vantage to the honest commission
merchant as ii is to the farmer. Hun
dreds of commission men have al
ready complied to the New York law
by taking out licenses and giving
bonds. Farmers will not expect by the
new regulations to receive first-class
prices for second-elass produce, but
they do expect square deal
Now, with the New York law as a
basis let each state In the central west
get busy and give our farmers the
much-needed protection The evils
attending commission sales of farm
produce have been neglected too long.

COULDN'T STAND FOR DEFEAT
According to London Newspaper, Col.
ored Opponent Of lrishman Had
Little Chance.

A brawny son of Erin was acting as
time keeper in a ough-andready fight
between his mate and negro in South
America. In the course of the fight a
well-planted blow sent the lrishman
earthwards.
"One!' cried the time keeper, in a
tense voice, watch in hand.
Two" he murmured hoarsely. Pat
ye fool, git up! There's only eight sec
onds left"
The inert mass never moved.
"Three." shouted the time keeper
desperately Think of yer old mother
Pat! What's 1t she'd be saying to ye
Bate the niggern"
Slowly he called up to eight, buck
ing up his mate with patriotic ejaeula
tions between each long second When
eight had been called Pat slowly stag
gered to his feet, and by mighty
lunge succeeded in knocking down his
black opponent.
Desperately fearing lest he should
revive in time, the time keeper set of
at top speed:
"One, two, three, four, five, ant
fve's ten! Ye're out, ye black yllain.'

WHAT ORGANIZATION MAY DO
There Are Other Things Besides Mar.
keting of Fruit Crops Which May
Be Taken Up to Advantage.

While cooperative organizations
among fruit growers have as their
principal purpose the marketing of the
fruit crop, there are other things
which may be taken up to advantage,
one of which is that Of deciding upon
certain definite varieties of each crop
that is grown by the members of the
organization. 1t is considered an ad-
vantage In marketing a crop to have
enough Of kind to make a carload.
Another feature which can be taken
up TO advantage is that of maintaining
one kind or breed of cattle. Live
stock of some kind is more or less
plentiful in every fruit-growing COM
munity, and where all of the animals
are of one or two breeds 1t is then
possible for the organization to buy
pure-bred sires to the advantage of
everyone.

MECKWEAR for spring is not
N marked by the introduction of
many novelties but in novel treatment
Of pieces with which we are already
familiar. Like almost all other ap-
parel, 1t tends to sheerness in mate
rials and vividness as to color. Pieces
are small, as rule.
The standing ruff, supported by
small wires. leads in popularity among
the novelties. 1t is shown in great
variety. made Of lace or net with a
pllar attached or with fchu or a
krill to lie against the bodice or coat.
lGpe Of the newest and simplest is
e.Aown here. 1t is made of fine plated
net. This may be had at the stores
or other plating Of lace or chiffon, all
ready to use.
The bound edges OF the net latter
the length of the run has been decided
upon and cut on are sewed together.
Three very small wires are tackled In
at the back, one on each side and one
at the center. The run Is finished
with narrow silk or velvet ribbon, as
shown In the picture. The shaded rib
bons are liked for this purpose.
Just below the ruff a pretty orna-
ment is shown which consists of a
small bow of velvet with little flower
J forms Of silk braid pendant from 1t.
The velvet is in vivid color. as cerise
or emerald green, and the flowers in
pure white silk with plush centers
like the velvet In color. 1t is easy to
make this little ornamental bow of
silk coronation braid and small bits
OF velvet.

Farmers are to be urged by the Ma

a plan for reducing the cost OF
living by purchasing their supplies
and marketing their products on the
cooperative system. As the first step
In the campaign. Seth Low, president
of the federation, was elected chair
man of department on agricultural
conditions and rural betterment, and
authorized to appoint committee on
plan and scope.
Men and women OF prominence from

Mr.. Carnegie, who pointed TO Den

ardization and marketing of farm prod
ucts. New York state. he said, is
three times the size of Denmark, and
he referred to the great opportunities
which are being overlooked by the
farmers Of this state.
I'VE have made great progress in
the West in farming. especially In Cal
ifornia,r said Mr.. Carnegie. "Organi-
zation is the one thing needful In
farming. and In California you find
water rights purchased by one cor
poration. and each little piece of
ground sold carries with 1t right and
title to so much water, and this is a
part of the property; It cannot be
sold separately. They buy all that
they use from one agency and main
tain their own stores. They bring
their products to one combined ware
house and sell at wholesale"
Strongly advocating the adoption of
the California plan. Mr.. Carnegie an
nounced that one Of the Carnegie foun-
dations has taken up the question of
agricuturist betterment in Vermont.
He said financial assistance win be
given TO put into effect the recon-
mendations of experts.
