About all trouble with the unions is
derived from the unions efforts to be
actual buyers or sellers, or both.
1t is difficult to state briefly the need
ed and proper business of union and
some sharp controversies still exist on
these points. The successful trades
unions are all helpers, and no, custom
ers, for their members, and farmers can
learn something from them. On our
own account we farmers know some of
the practical demands for a union. Few
farmers can haul carload to the station
in one day; hence some union storehouse
accommodations are helpful. Skilled
hands to sort, PACK, brand, ship and
make collections can best be furnished
by union. Running down swindIers and
keeping record of them is best and
cheapest when done by union. To re-
ceive all bids and get them before the
farmers is best done by union.
Publishing from day to day farmers
offerings and prices is the proper bust

COLD WEATHER RHEUMATISM

Why should rheumatism, a disease of
the blood, be worse in cold weather than
in summer?
The rheumatic poison in the blood is
the predisposing cause of the disease. If
gu have the faint in your blood you may
ave rheumatism whenever the exciting
;ause stirs it to action. Cold weather
and dampness are exciting causes of
rheumatism. They excite to action some
thing already in the blood, something
that you must get rid Of if you would be
free from rheumatism.
What this something is, nobody knows.
Not very long ago it was thought to be
uric acid. Many doctors now think it 8
microscopic organism or specific bacil-
lus, but they cannot find the bacillus.
1t is known fact that in rheumatism
the blood becomes thin rapidly, that
building up the blood relieves the rheu-
matism and that there will be no return
of the rheumatism as long as the condi-
ton of the blood is maintained. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are recommended
for rheumatism because they keep tie
blood rich and red and free from rheu-
matte poisons.
The free book, Building Up the Blood'
tells all about the treatment. Send for a
copy today to the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your own

ness of union. Agreements between
buyers and seller as to what shall con-
stitute brands, grades, proper packages,
and the like can best be determined be-
tween Produce Exchanges and Farmers
Unions; in other words, between the
union buyers and the union sellers. The
singlehanded farmer can do practically
nothing with any of these conditions.
Sending messages back and forth as to
prices offered, goods offered, dates for
shipment, customers addressed and all
else in this general line, is best done by a
uni on at union expense.
ALI controversies between buyers and
sellers, the establishment of mutual con-
veniences, and the introduction of new
ideas are best dealt with between unions.
The buyers are, and for long time
have been, pretty we'll united through
their produce exchange. The farmers
union is coming slowly, but we all need
more light upon the proper business and
proper limit of farmers union.
