 "The farmers wife knows more about her husf and's business than any other mans wife knows about his. She has fairer, clearer, and more helpful understanding of it than the average lawer's, doctors or merchants wife can possibly have about he" husbands business, for she lives and works with her husband on their plant The farmers wife is the farmers partner in more senses than one. In the ma jority of cases she actually operates certain departments of the business.
 Most wives have genuine interest and some information about their hus- bands business, but the farmers wife living with her partner on their plant, occupies unique position among all wives. With this greater oportunity for helpfulness than her city sisters, her responsibilities have increased proportionately. All honor and res pect to her who carries this heavier burden"

WHO'S GOING TO THRESH YOUR
 GRAIN?

This section will have the biggest crop of grain-oats and wheat-to harvest this year, perhaps, that it has ever had in all it's history. What are you going to do about the threshing problem Threshing machines in this country are very few-so few, in fact that they will probably be entirely in- adequate to the handling of the crop the farmers have on hand. Much of the oats perhaps the entire crop, can be fed to stock, it is true, thus dis posing of that crop economically with out the need of threshing; but that is not the case with the wheat The wheat crop must be threshed
 And then, there is the peas-an- other crop that ought to be threshed. An ample supply of seed peas for next years planting ought to be saved this season, instead of paying $2.00 to $500 a bushel for them next spring; and the only practicable way of say ing so large quantity is the use of threshing machine that will thresh the peas on the vine. Picking peas by hand and beating them out with a stick is entirely too slow for the aver age man. The result is that the pea crop every year is less than half as large as it ought to be.
 There are combination threshers on the market that will thresh both grain and peas, even peanuts, and, between these different crops there will be plenty of work for such machine to do.
 This is a question that calls for serious thought. The average small farmer cannot afford to buy thresh- CT for the small amount of grain and peas he will have to handle; yet, he must have some way to get the threshing done. What is the solution? We believe it is the partnership, or cooperative purchase and use of thresher. Let half dozen or a dozen farmers go in together and buy thresher and use it time about. This would be cooperation, substantial, practical cooperation-th thing that is most needed in farm affairs today.
 We would suggest that this matter be taken up without delay. The har- vest is practically upon us now; and the grain, after being cut, ought not to be allowed to lie in the field ex- posed to the weather till public thresher can be found. Get together and arrange to buy thresher without delay. It will not only solve the pres ent problem, but it will also be the means of causing more grain and peas to be grown in future years. Unless some such step is taken there is a grave possibility that many grain growers will sustain heavy loss.

 Extension Agent.
