COOPERATION in BREEDING

Among the rural cooperative concerns in Ohio
the Portage County Improvement association is
the largest organization in the county, and, of
its kind. the largest in the state says the North
western Stockman and Farmer. One of It's pur-
poses is the Improvement Of live stock through
community ownership Of breeders. II issues no
capital stock, the company being run on the money
paid in by membership dues, which are $40 per
year. At present there are about 200 members.
Up to the present time this company has pur-
chased six stations and 33 bulls. These are dis
tributed throughout the county and services are
given free Of charge to Members. No member may
breed more than two horses or five cows. This
provision is causing some trouble and a move
ment is on foot to correct this defect. The cor,ec-
ton proposed is for a membership fee to be paid
and then an additional sum for each animal that
is kept for breeding purposes. No profits are to
be paid on the organization, the sole purpose being
the Improvement Of the stock of the community
through a concerted action. The county is al
ready establishing a worldwide reputation for the
quality of its stock. Farmers all over the state
are going to Portage county in order to stock their
farms with Holstein Friesian cattle. Recently a
large number of cows of this breed were sold to
the Cuban government and the farmers of the
association are now prepared to fill a large order
from South America.

AN EDUCATIONAL GOLD BRICK

We suppose there is no community in the
United States that would not look with powerful
displeasure on a man who was known to be in
the habit of swindling children out of their PEN
MES; but hundreds of communities In the United
States swindle children out Of something much
more precious than pennies, with never a blush.
The educational gold brick, which our fathers
celebrated, is palmed off year after year on q
great number Of country boys and girls.
Not that our fathers celebration was unjustified.
A little. ill-equipped, one-teacher country school
is much better than no school at all; but It re-
mains today in many a rural community where It
has no more business than an oxcart would have
as a pleasure vehicle. A string Of little old fash
toned one teacher country school, with a course
of studies not at all related to country life, In a
rural district where many farmers own auto
mobiles is a scandalous fraud on country youth.
The consolidated country school, graded. well
housed, well equipped. with adequately paid teach
es and a course Of study knit up to country life,
is the farmers best asset.-Saturday Evening
