COUNTY SCHEME MAKING GOOD

ltouch with the good these men are do
aAg and he gave many illustrations of
valuable service given the farmers of
a county by these men. One man
made nearly $500 more per year in
feeding his herd after following the
instructions and practical directions
culturist has eliminated hog cholera
from his county, and thus the farmers
are saved thousands a year. Another
started II cooperative marketing as
sociations. One of these saved its
members over $4,000 a year. No
silos in the state have been built by
county agents. One farmer said: He
would not take $3.50 for the help q
county agent gave him. 1t does not
take long before the news of such
things spread in county and the
county agent rapidly wins the farm
er's confidence because he is practical
Recently Hoard's Dairyman, one of
cru most influential farm papers, gave
the following credit to the county
agent movement: The county agent
is today the most powerful education
al influence that can be employed.
Scores of counties have gone ahead
and made more progress with such
an agent than they would have in 25
years if left to themselves. We have
great hope of this county demonstra-
ton work for the building up of bet :
ter farming and thus leading the farm
er out to comprehend the meaning of
what science can teach him."

Prosperity VIII Follow
Cessation Of Hos
tlIltles
By o. D. SHELTON, Professor OF Eco
nomics at Queens University
Kingston. Canada

THE United States stands to gain
relatively most by the war
Already the tide there seems
to have turned, and when the war
ends it will apparently be launched
once more on period of prosperi-
ty. THAT MEANS MUCH FOR
CANADA, SINCE, FOR VEAL
OR WOE, INDEPENDENTLY OF
ALL TARIFF ARRANGEMENTS
OR POLITICAL SYMPATHIES,
OUR FORTUNES ARE VERY
G Realty AFFECTED BY
THOSE OF OUR G R E A T
NEIGHBOR.
Prosperity south Of forty-nine
will be reflected north of it. After
the war, too, this continent, though
perhaps particularly the United
States, is going to look very good
to war rent Europe.

rich and expensive foods. One of the
valuable discussions was that of the
proper way to make jelly tests. The
use of underripe, acid fruit containing
pectin was insisted upon, and the ex-
act manner in which to test for acid
ity and pectin was explained.
For the country women, Miss Hoover
made some practical recommendations
regarding school lunches. She urged
the free use of sandwiches wrapped
individually in paper; the use of paper
rather than cloth napkins; the gener-
Gus use of milk.
Mr.. Hamilton's talk was much en-
joyed, after which Victrola records
suitable for young children were pre-
sented. AS most homes and school
houses have one of these instruments
it was deemed of some value to illus
trate the types of music which children
should be taught to enjoy.

some profit could be realized annually
from the by-products alone. He sale
that farmers in this vicinity netted
$35 per acre on apples by selling them
to the plant.
Mr.. Stafford was most optimistic
about the fruit market outlook.
President Brannons discussion of
diseases of apples and apple trees
was instructive and proved helpful to
growers.
The best talk on Cooperation in
Agriculture ever given in Moscow
was given last evening by Mr.. H. c..
Sampson, the man who made the North
Pacific Fruit Distributors and who is
of nationwide prominence because of
his knowledge upon this very vital
great interest being taken in cooper
alton in agriculture at the present
time and said that there were nine
basic principles upon which co-opera-
ton must stand. These were:
The producer shall set the price at
which the article shall be sold.
The product shall be sold by sal
aried representatives of the producer.
The producer shall finance them
selves by using the bond system and
getting lower rate of interest.
Business must be conducted on a
big business basis.
The producer must get wide public
ity and information and should know
the whole business.
The basic principle of STANDARDIZED
ton is vitality important in all kinds
of agricultural produce.
The farmers cooperative associa-
tons should have harmonious and in
telligent cooperation with the U. S.
government department of markets.
Each line of business should coop
crate among themselves and have sep
arate wheat growers associations,
dairymen's association and apple as
sociations.
The business should be always gov
erned and owned by producers.
The most outstanding weaknesses
Of cooperative associations are weak
financing and the producers do not
choose the right man to represent
hem. In conclusion, Mr. Sampson
stated that northwest has never sold
ruit; that they have simply accepted
,rders and have never had a con- =
,tructive selling campaign. 1t is of
he greatest Importance that the con- :
umer be considered and the price !
owered for him. 1t is only when the
consumers are organized in some way !
UGH as consumers leagues that the !,
associations can sell di- !
ectly to consumers. !

MANTELu's NoN.slNKAsLE BOAT.

Let it be understood that II you ex.
pect to make good big stake out Of
a reasonably small amount Of money
that you must join in with others and
assume a certain amount of risk. Were
the Mantell Non-Sinkable Boat dead
open and sure certain winner you
would not buy $1,000 stock at $500
a share. The price would be way up
and probably out of your reach alto
gether.
The inventor is playing the game
fair and square, putting all his cards
on the table, explaining every move
and showing where and what is to be
done with every dollar invested.
The invention has every appearance
|of a winner, it has been passed on by
competent experts, everything connect
ed with it is practicable and there is
no. doubt but that given fair time
for development that those investing
will make a fine "clean up" on the
deal.
A few dollars is all you need put
into it, not enough to cripple your fl
nances, and help push the invention
to completion. 1t is home product
for that reason it should be encour-
aged all that is possible. Call in at
the Fairmont and see and talk 1t over
with the inventor, Mr.. Mantell.

"ReSu1tS-that'S it"
ARE WE TAX CRAZY?

It is very dangerous proposition to allow men
who have little property other interests to
pile up enormous Indebtedness against City and then
deliberately sit down and naugurate system of tax
alton which amounts practically to confiscation.
The one fragrant sin Of most local administrations
seems to be ineficiency-men elected to offices for
which they are absolutely untitled and incapable of
fitting-sma men in the main trying to fill big mans
position Even when business men are occasionally
elected they seem to throw to the winds the care,
economy and thoroughness which they used in their
own business and their actions would indicate that
what is good business for them is not necessary in
city affairs, and become extravagant and unmindfu
of existing conditions and 60 ahead ping up indebted
regardless of the impending ruin. Inefficiency
trying to make bluff at efficiency is successful
The key to the position is to be found on election
day and many and devious the ways that lead up to
such Misrepresentation
With our city in the condition is is in from
business point of view it would appear that the enor
nous taxes staring in the face means practically
that people will be forced to quit; they will be taxed
beyond their power to pay. Do the authorities stop
ping up the expense on this account? They do not.
Neat s0eek sve sviU try to shoau hoav the repre-
semtatives Of the schiskey traffic are getting IN their
fine svork IN the matters of aratio, so that they uviU
have "come back" and try to sickem the people By
outrageous forms of taratiom, IN the hope that they
may be induced to return to saloon license money!

The water Bond Election.

The citizens Of Aberdeen will be
called upon next Saturday to vote upon
the question of issuing bonds in the
sum Of 100000. with which to build
a new water system, taking the water
from the Falls Of the Wishkah river,
and $4,000 to pay for the West
bridge.
After interviewing quite q number
Of prominent citisens Of the city, the
writer 10 impelled to the belief that
the water project will meet with de-
term'ned opposition. The consensus
Of opinion Of those interviewed ID that
the large vote at the previous election.
1t which 100000 bonds were author.
ICED for the water system, was to a
large extent hysterical and without
due study Of the problems involved.
A feature that caused many to vote
for the bonds was the plea that 1t
would afford work for many Of the
idle men in. the city at that time.
This argument will scarcely hold good
now, as the opening Of the Wilson
mill and several logging camps have
cared for quite a number Of those
men. nor would it be practicable to
begin the work Of actual construction
before next spring. The land at the
source Of supply and the right Of way
for the pipe line is yet to be secured.
in the course Of which litigation may
be encountered, so that it will be i'm
possible to start the work before the
rains Of winter set in. The improv-
ing conditions in the lumber trade
justifies the belief that before next
spring this industry will have regain.
ed it's normal stride.
A number oppose the proposed plan
of building the new system by days
work instead Of on contract, on the
ground that it would add at least Is
per cent to the cost. The superin.
tendent and foremen being appointees
of the city councilmen would feel, pow
erless to discharge inefficient en-
ployes who were recommended by
councilmen and thus demoralize the
entire force.
1t was pointed out that Aberdeen
has now sufficient supply of water,
pronounced pure by the state author.
ities), for a city Of $4,000 people, or
an increase of 1000 or 5000 from the
present population, If proper steps are
taken to utilize it; that with the pur-
chase of the West bridge, that struc-
ture can be used to convey proper
main across tle Lhehalis river, and
that. with such a main, the supply at
Charley creek could ,be used.
Owing to defective mains in the
river. this supply has been Of but
slight service on the north side, but,
it is suggested, that the West bridge
affords the opportunity for guar
anteed main Of sufficient size to carry
all the water Charley creek can sup.
ply, beyond the needs Of South Aber-
deem. Such q main would cost a
small sum compared with the Wish.
kah project, and. with the new reser-
voir and additional storage room to be
obtained at the Stewart creek intake,
Aberdeen would have sufficient water
until its population is large enough
to secure money for new system
by bonding the water system alone,
and not involving the property in the
city.
Stress was laid upon the addition
Of $4,000 a year interest charges at
this time, just as we are facing the
