1t was 2.S97,391 at the regular insti-
tutes. The increase in attendance at
each session was 40 per cent, or from
an average of 94.53 to 141. The ap-
preparations increased from s1S7.226
to $510,7S4
During the past year, notwithstand-

Farmers Educational

A good read shortens the distance
to market.
Good hired men are hard to get,
and still harder to keep year after
year.
True cooperation is method of di-
viding profits of industry-labor or
patronage-rather than to capital.
Spending a half a day making fifty
cents worth of repairs is not always
the best way to make money.
The farmer does some of his work
go cheerfully and so we'll that it looks

On some farms everybody works
Tor their board and clothes and a

Keep record of your expenses.
Inc money may go, anyhow, but
knowing Where it has gone will be a
satisfaction.
There are three kinds of trouble
and three kinds of joy-what we have
on hand, what we have had, and what
we may have.
The fact that pork is eight and ten
cents per pound on foot, may explain
why a lot of folks always make hogs
OF themselves.
In nowadays farming more than
legs and arms are necessary. You
must have head with something in
1t and use it all the time.
The fact that your neighbor tests
his seed carefully before planting. is
pretty conclusive evidence that he did
not get his wealth by accident.

Avoid the Middleman.

A remarkable use has been discov-
cred for the parcel post by Northern
Alaska Eskimos, who have found that
instead of selling white fox skins to
traders on the spot at two dollars
apiece, they can mail them to dealers
in this country and avoid the middle
man. On account of this discovery. it
is said, the price of white fox skins
has risen in Alaska during the past
summer to twenty dollars apiece Who
would have thought, when it was es-

COOPERATIVE PLAN Is GOOD
Lamb Club Organized Thirty Years.
Ago In Tennessee Has Proven Of
Benefits to Members.

In view or the wide discussion OF
the effects Of cooperation among farm.
ers In marketing their products, the
work of the Goodlettsville, Tenn,
Lamb club. organized in 1928, and
now In existence for thirty years is OF
timely interest. The club was organi.
zed because the sheep raisers in the
vicinity Of Goodlettsville found that
by banding together they could make
larger offerings Of more uniform
lambs, utilize car space to better ad,
vantage, and by making available a
larger number Of good lambs ready for
Shipment on single day secure great
er competition among the buyers. The
Following facts are the result of a
study of this club and other lamb clubs
In Tennessee recently made by the
Bureau Of Animal Industry.
The Goodlettsville Lamb club origi-
nally consisted of about one dozen
farmers and its membership has in
creased until at one time it numbered
so members. Ii has as officers a pres
ldent and a secretary, and an execu-
i've committee Of three members, of
which the secretary is a member ex
ofhcio The club is not a chartered
institution and is more in the nature
or partnership. Its members agree
TO abide by its rules and constitution,
although the organization is not espe-
cially binding. The president calls a

meeting its members have the privi-
lege of selling lambs and wool at pri-
vate sale. At the meeting. however,
each member reports the number of
lambs and the amount Of wool he will
have to sell through the club and there
after can no longer sell individually.
After the report the executive commit
tee has unlimited power.
This committee then determines the
total number of lambs and date or
dates for shipment. Ordinarily, one
shipment is made in the early part of
June and another Is scheduled for the
early part of July. This years sales
were dated June 10th and July 18th.
The first delivery is made up almost
entirely of "firsts." The second de-
livery which contains those that are
too small for the first sale, is as a
rule poorer quality, as the old lambs
do not make as great or satisfactory
gains as the early ones.
There is little uniformity as to
methods Of sale. This year, as is oft
en- the rule, the wool was sold to a
local wooden mill. 1t was sold for 23k,
2Ok and II cents per pound, respect
lively. These prices average better
than those paid by local buyers, but
because the other wool sold to these
buyers is ungraded 1t is difficult to
compute the exact monetary advan-
tage to the club members.
The safe of lambs through the club
may be announced through the local
papers, by means of posters or post
cards, or by word of mouth. This an
nouncement varies with the locality,
and the club may change it's methods
from year to year.
Following is a typical advertisement
OF such sale by Tennessee club:
