Difficult Commission.

Il kinda hate to do errands for the
home folks when l go to Kansas City,"
confessed a citizen of Petunia. The
ether day, after l had taken my seat
in the train, neighbor came tearing
to the depot and hollered at me till
opened the car window. He wanted
me to fetch back half a dozen small
china nest eggs for the use of his
hens and half dozen big china eggs
for his geese. He had forgotten to
bring samples with him, but held up
his hands as the train started and
yelled to me that the little ones were
about this long-spreading the thumb
and forefinger of his left hand apart
and the big ones this size-spread-
ing the same two fingers on his right
hand-anC shouted that IL I'd hold my
hands that way until got the eggs
couldn't make mistake. Now, let mo
ask you, how would l have looked
hunting all over Kansas City for an
artificial egg store with my hands held
out in front of me in that style, espe-
cially AZ l had a sore thumb and .
suitcase to carry?'-Kansas City Star.

FAIR PROFIT FOR PRODUCER
No Easy Task to Successfully Organize
and Manage Selling Assoeia-
tions Among Farmers.

Organized marketing must take the
place of unwise and suicidal competi-
tive individual selling on congested
local markets before we can reason
ably hope to obtain q fair share of the
wealth which we are creating on our
farms. It IL folly to contend that CO.
operative marketing Is impracticable
in the face of the many living exam
pies in localities where marketing as
sociations are doubling the profits of
cooperative members. II is true that
It Is no easy task to successfully or
ganize and manage a selling associa-
ton. but the very fact that 1t requires
patient and persistent effort makes It
all the more profitable for those who
stay by It during the formative and
experimental period of its existence.
In this connection. let us again
sound warning against big schemes
Of cooperation in which It is proposed
to include every farmer in the whole
neighborhood or county. Successful CO.
operation never begins that way.
DuuuiuS tuc COOpcIdtlVo StIuCture on
the presumption or theory that 500
farmers. even 100 farmers. are surely
going to fall right in line as loyal CO.
operators Is like counting chickens
before they are Matched. II is this
unwise presumption that dooms many
cooperative ventures to disappoint-
ment and failure.
The best cooperative marketing as
sociations have started With small
groups of men and have gradually en-
larged the flelu of operation as the
men in charge acquired experience and
became worthy of confidence. In view
Of this condition. why lose time dream
ing Of some Dig cooperative scheme?
II you can't cooperate first with a
small group Of farmers in your own
neighborhood with whom you are Der.
sonally acquainted. how can you ex-
pect to coop Jrate. in q big scheme,
with farmers that you do not know!-

COSTLY CLOSING OF CANALS
How Freight Rates Have Been In.
creased BY Interruption Of
World Traffic.

Trade is suffering severely from the
closing Of the canal, and the shippers
who made use Of 1t during the months
1t was in operation now realize wildly
what the interoceanic waterway
means to them. One western firm is
sending two freight boats from the
Pacific to the Atlantic, where char.
ters are highly profitable, and finds
that 1t will cost $4,000 more for the
trip around the Horn than 1t would
through the canal. Freight rates
from the eastern to the western sea-
board have about trebled. The effect
OF the stoppage Of the canal is re-
Elected in the greatly increased earn
ings Of the transcontinental railroads.
Just now there is a great deal of ap.
prehension in shipping circles lest the
Suez canal be temporarily destroyed
by an act Of war. says Leslie's. This
would mean that the shipping from
the Atlantic ports of the United States
and Europe to the East Indies would
have to double the Cape of Good Hope.
With shipping as scarce as it is now
this would be q heavy blow to q COM
mercial world already badly upset.

farmer SHOULD KEEP BOOKS
Few Of Them Know Whether They Are
Producing Milk or Fruit or veee-
tables at q Loss or at q Profit.

Business men of today keep very
close tabs on the various costs en-
tering into the production and market
ing of their products. When It IL
found that the costs exceed the COM
pensation received, the manufacturer
turns his attention to some other form
of production.
Why should not the farmer do like
wise! Why produce milk or fruit or
vegetables at a loss? Few farmers
would think Of such a thing. Yet.
they are doing 1t every day. They
don't know that they are doing 1t.
They have no means of knowing
What few records they may keep are
entirely inadequate.
