plan Yields all the farmers of the
county together into one compact
/ effective organization for self helm
and self defense. Itcreates resources
sufficient to command the respect of
the business interests. 1t makes it
easy to secure a just and fair recogni-
tlon from the bankers and others who
control capital, and it creates a busi-
ness of such volume that it at once
becomes one of the great resources of
I the county in which it is carried on
with success
Mitchell county farmers are not the
only people who are benefited by the
success of cooperation Every busi-
ness man in the county has more
trade; every banker has more depos-
its; every professional man has more
practice, and the whole body of the
population is more prosperous because
the farmers have made and are able
to spend the large profits at home.
Cooperation is good, not only for the
farmer, but for the merchant, and is
as matter of fact the only agehcy
through which successful war can be
made on mail order concerns that are
threatening to ruin local business in
so many parts OF the country
The prosperity of the home busi-
ness man depends on keeping every
possible dollar of business capital
working at home. All mail order
houses of every description are con-
slant drain. on thu resources of the
rural districts. Ali cooperative bus
iness institutions create profits for
the home folks and keep the money
circulating in local business channels.
The farmers of Mitchell, Osborne,
Ellsworth and other counties have
demonstrated that there is a way to
protect themselves and at the same
time maintain the prosperity of the
business institutions conducted in the
cities. The Farmers Union grocery
store at Beloit has done an immense
business during the past Il months,
but every farmer who has traded at
his own store has also bought other
things of other merchants in Beloit.
and there is no question but that the
total business of that city has be IN
greatly increased as a result of the
successful cooperative enterprises
conducted there.

the farmer but of general business In.

COOPERATION FOR TOWN AND CITY
View Point of Farmers Union Shown
by Clipping From Mitchell
County PAPER

The following article was sent in by
one of our farmer friends who clipped
it from Farmers Union paper. Our
subscriber says in sending it in: ''The
merchants of Wilson are so bitter
against the Union that thought per-
haps it might do them good to see
this in the town paper It is true
that the Farmers Union is getting
the money that formerly went to
Montgomery Ward g. Co."
We agree with the article on the
spirit of cooperation but believe that
there is misunderstanding in the
mind of our correspondent about any
bitterness on the part of our local
merchants. They want friendly rela-
tions with the farmers and more CO.
operation for the common good of the
town and surrounding county.

FOR VARIATION IN THE MENU
There Are Days When Fish Will Be
Appreciated, and Baked Cod Can
Be Recommended.

Here is a good way of baking cod:
Have the fish skinned and backbone
removed. Lay on an earthenware plat
ter, open. Sprinkle with salt and pep
per. dip oysters separately in melted
butter, then in crumbs and lay on one
half Of fish. When covered fold other
side over, brush with beaten egg, mois-
ten the crumbs with the butter. There
will be some oyster liquor in the but
ter from dipping, but use it. Cover
the fish with the crumbs SO prepared.
Do not put any water on the fish. Set
pan of water under the platter to keep
platter from cracking and have oven
hot A four-pound fish will require
one-half pint oysters, one-half pint
crumbs and one-quarter cupful of but
ter. Bake about forty minutes. Serve
on the platter it is baked in If you
wish to bake the fish with the skin
and bone on put plenty of strips of
fat pork over it and haste with the
drippings. Never use water for baked
fish. Do not bake too long. When
the flakes separate it is done. When
baked on platter, without the skin
it requires no basting.

often the fertilizing constituents in the

bered that from 80 to 80 per cent of
this fertilizing value remains in the
manure the opportunities for profit
that it's use offers become even more
obvious. To put the case in another
way: When one includes in his calcu-
lations the enrichment of the land he
finds that feeding cottonseed meal to
cattle costs him only from 10 to 20
per cent of the market price of the
meal.
In view of these facts, specialists
in the department recommend cattle
feeders in all parts of the country to
secure prices on cottonseed by-prod-
ucts and to take advantage of the
cheap foods that they provide. No
other form of concentrated feed, the
specialists say, will prove as profitable
as cottonseed meal this year. In the
South the feeders have an opportun-
ity to get these by-products at lower
prices than at any other time during
the last ten years. Combined with
farm grown feeds. such as corn silage,
they should be able to secure gains
very cheaply, and with the present
high prices for finished cattle, make
good profits. incidentally it may be
said that if such a movement tends
to strengthen and steady the market
for cottonseed by-products, this will in

never produce a browning of the sur

pronounced shrinkage of the tubers,
and never form large, deep, eroded

If affected potatoes are wet and
carefully washed to remove super
f1uous dirt another distinct charac-
teristic can be observed. When wet,
the spots produced by powdery scab
are invariably darker colored than
those of the common type. Common
scab is, as a rule, nothing more than
a surface, ulcer, resulting from the
irritation of the growth Of the seed
