Marketing.

According to recent book
published by the Department o
Agriculture, Co. operation is th'
only salvation of the farmer, es
pecially so in marketing his pro-
ducts. Nothing less than conccr
ted action will bring results.
There must be organization O
the farmers in their selling. In
dividual farmers have neithel
adequate information nor. ttnl
facilities for marketing properly
This organizati ton should be for
facilitating standardization and
preparation for market, and then
study of markets and their
requirements. Marketing is as
important as production. The
farmers need expert direction in
this matter.
1t urges every farmer to join
such an organization, as 1t is for
the mutual benefit of all. We are
glad that we have such an organ
lzation III our midst, and which
has helped the farmers very mat
erially III the marketing of their
products. and all those who are
not already affiliated with this
organization should become Sc
once.

Anarchy in
Mexico.

Mexican affairs are at des
perate pass. All hope for Mexico
is that Intervention may be bro
ught about from the outside.
Mexico herself cannot bring
about peace within her borders.
There are too many factions. and
too divergent views for any con-
certed action. Anarchy is ramp.
ant, and affairs were never in a
worse condition. There is no or
ganized government. Foreigners
aud foreign interests have no
sembiance of protection. There
is a great anlmus against Amer.
icans in Mexico, and our govern
ment seems powerless to afford
them any protection. The rapid
trend of events there is exciting
great apprehension. both here
and IN Europe, and there is talk
OF an expedition to Mexico City
analogous to the expedition ag-
alnst Bexeis in China.

hopes that it may convert voters
