SEEK REPRESENTATION FROM
ALL FARMERS UNIONS AND
ORANGES OF THE INLAND
EMPIRE AT THE MEET
ING TO BE Held IN
NOVEMBER.
Sunday Spokesman Review

The public meeting of Inland EN-
pire wheat producers held in Judge
Sullivan s courtroom in the Spokane
county courthouse Saturday was at
tended by about 200 farmers, Con
gresham Dill and State Grain In
spector R. d. Jarboe 1t was presided
over by j. 2. Hill, chairman of the
Spokane County Farmers union. Be-
fore adjourning to ge into executive
session as farmers union it passed
resolution calling a meeting of mem
bers of farmers unions and oranges
of the Inland Empire to be held at the
same place November 13 at 10 a. M and
inviting the presence of both United
States senators and all of the congress
men from this state.
Wide Range in Discussion.
The discussion that preceded the
adoption of this resolution covered a
wide range. 1t dealt with wheat con-
dltions in various states, market
prices, ocean freight rates, rural ere
dts, the nonattendance of any of the
state s congressional delegation except
Congressman Dill, the necessity of bet
ter organization of farmers and the un-
reliability of government crop reports
In stating the object of the meeting
R. A. Hutchinson said that from what
he could learn the wheat crops of the
world were not equal to those of last
year, even admitting that there had
been 1,000,OO0,000 bushel crop in this
country, which he seemed disposed to
question.
"In any event. said he, "our crop
this year is only S0,000,000 bushels
larger than last year, when it was all
No. l wheat, which it is not this year.
In the central west much of this year s
crop is not fit for milling
Campaign to Depress Prices.
He said that those interested in se-
curing cheap wheat had flooded the
press of the nation with reports cal
culated to depress the price. Last year
only very few Inland Empire farm
ers got better than rs cents a bushel
for their wheat and it was being at
tempted to bring about similar CON
dition this year, is to keep the price
down until the farmers had practically
all sold. Jim Hill IS prediction of 10
cent wheat had been widely spread with
this object in view. He asserted that
Mr.. Hill was the owner of large ter
minal elevator and that if he could fill
it with wheat at that price he could
make the cost of the elevator this year.
He said the federal government tried
to give the facts about the wheat crop,
but its statisticians were always Civ
en- larger acreage figures by the farm
ers themselves than were actually
cropped, and the yield was also aver
aged to them by the farmers above the
net.

Agricultural Co-Operatfon:
 What IS u? Farmers Answer

Chicago, Nov. 25,--With 1000 dele gates headed for Chicago to attend the third national conference on mar keting and farm credits, where we are told emphasis is to be laid upon the benefits of cooperative market ing, the question naturally arises: What is cooperation?
 Vhe cheese producers of Sheboy- gan county, Wisconsin, have gwen a practical demonstration of the bene- fits of cooperation, both in produc- ing and in marketing. Wisconsin produces more than one-half of the cheese made ill the United States, and Sheboygan is the banner cheese county of the state. The short and simple story of what cooperation has done for the farmers of ShebOygan county explains what cooperation IS.
 The farmers were selling their milk to the cheese factories, but were not getting what they thought was fair price for their product. Some of the cheese factories were operated on the cooperative plan; that is, the farm CTS took their milk to the cheese factory owned by themselves and re- ceived the prevailing market price for it each month, and at the end of tine year the profit on the cheese sold was divided among the farmers on the basis Of the amount of milk de- livered to the factory during the year. These cooperative cheese fac tories were not joint-stock companies, ir which the profits were divided among the stock holders, or in which the stockholders controlled on the basis of the amount of stock they owned. They were organized on the basis of "one man one vote" regard less of how much stock was held by any one person. There had to be some capital stock, to be sure, and there had to be some return upon the stock. But the cooperative cheese factory was not organized to make money on the capital invested in the cheese factory. Rather it was organ ized to pay dividend upon tho mon- ey which the stockholders had in- vested in COWS. Therefore, the divi- dend paid upon the capital stock was confined to per cent. And the sur plus was divided among the farmers on tine basis of the amount of milk delivered In this way, every farmer received the full return upon tile milk he brought to the factory. The man with one share of stock and twenty cows received a much larger return than the man with twenty shares of stock and one COW. That was cooperation. The policy of the cheese factory was decided upon the vote of all the stockholders, 'one
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1915-11-28

vote, and only one, for each man" The man with twenty shares of stock and one COW had no larger voice in the management than the man with one share of stock and twenty cows. l That. too. was cooperation. But, still the farmers of Sheboygan county were not satisfied. They were selling the cheese made in their CO., operative factories to the wholesale dealers in Plymouth, who fixed the price at whatever they saw fit. And the price of cheese as fixed by these dealers was so low that even the CO., operative factories could not pay a fair price for milk.
 So the farmers took another step in cooperation. They organized the Sheboygan County Cheese Producers Federation to market on the cooper ative basis the cheese produced in the cooperative cheese factories. This cooperative selling agency has been doing business for almost two years, and by every standard known to the farmers has proved an unqualified success. The farmers have received from 20 to 30 cents per hundred pounds more for their milk than for merly. Sheboygan county farmers have received about $300000 8 year more for the same quantity of milk than in the days when the cheese was sold to dealers. This is more CO., operation.
 While this is a benefit that anyone can understand, it is not the only benefit that came to Sheboygan coun- ty and to Wisconsin as a whole. Not only did the co-operators get more for their milk. but every farmer in Wisconsin who sold his milk to a cheese factory, whether that factory was cooperative or not, received more for his milk. And every cheese factory, whether cooperative or not, received more for it's output of cheese.
 Wisconsin has, all told. over 25O co-operativc societies organized and doing business on the "one man. one vote" plan. These societies engage in a great variety of undertakings. from operating creameries and cheese factories to shipping fruit and breeding stock.

TINY SMITH FINDS
 CR!ME IS PROFITLESs
After Half a Century of Thieying, Man iu New York Prison Would Like
 to Be Honest. {.

New York, Nov. 26.-This is story of criminal, who, after half a cen tury of thieving, has decided that there is nothing to it.
 Its narrator is Tiny Smith, sometimes known as "Blackie" and much less fseqnently by his real ralrae, William Klinger, now i'll the 'ron1bs. He is 5S years old and has passed tWentv-six of those years in prison.
 When he w+s z he fell in with the Whyo gang in .what was then the "Blocdy Sixth" ward and was taught how to go over a transom and open the door of a store for thieves wait ing outside. &
 Klinger said he was not sure of the total number of times he had been sentenced to prison, but that he thought it was fifteen. The crimes included bank burglary, house bur glary. forgery and pocket picking.
 Most striking of his statement was one that his fifty-one years of crime had netted him total profit of only about $500. The goods he stole were worth many times that amount, but tte "fences" were avaricious.
 Out of a bank robbery many years ago in Harrison, Ne J., he got noth- his confederstes who got several thousand dollars, double crossed" him. ''
