between. Is there any reason why
these people should not get in touch
with each other to the advantage of
both?
Suppose the producers organize, and
by the application of good business
methods, guarantee their pack, ship
Ling direct to the farmers union at
Idaho Falls, where the Clearwater
producer, by paying small margin
for cost of handling, could place his
product on the market direct to the
consumer. Would that payP Yes.
It would benefit both producer and
consumer. It is practical. 1t is one
of the coming big issues that will call
for solution. Political parties will
take it up; Consumers Leagues will
organize as will the housewives of
America and the world and work out
solution of this question.
1t is said that today 80 per cent of
the worlds wholesale trade is done
thru samples. The goods are ordered
from samples, usually by wire, and
never in the world has wholesale bus
mess been better performed. And in
the small purchases, especially of
food products, how many housewives
nowadays go to market with market
baskets on their arms and pick out
their own meats and vegetables?
$50 we see, says one writer,
"that the time is here for ordering,
but the true way to order, the most
economic way to order, is from first
hand, and this applies especially to
food products. In the distribution OF
| food products, if the efficient mode OF
selling and buying be in operation, il
gives the equities both to producer and
to consumer. 1t does more; it frees
the farmer from the vexatious and
pernicious laws Of chance, hence from
injustice. With chance and injustice
eliminated from exchange, with the
rule of efficiency and equity in its
place, it will not alone make the
farmer economically stronger but il
will do more-it will make this ma
tion stronger and mightier than mere
fighting ships or soldiers can make it,
although these, too, should be hac
when wanted"

CONSUMER AND PRODUCER.

There is no reason why the man
who consumes should not buy practi-
cally all. if not all he needs, directly
from the producer. Why the neces-
sity Of the middle man, who now
levies tribute from both producer and
consumer?
Why should the apples produced in
Idaho find a market only by passing
thru the hands of commission mer-
chants, with all the risk of our
growers being defrauded, eventually
reaching the consumer at prices which
make them luxury, one that poor
people cannot afford all the year
round!
The producer is solving the problem
so far as it touches grain. Thru the
Farmers Union the man who grows
wheat is selling direct to the millers
and even to foreign consumers. But
why stop with wheat or oats or barley
or corn? Why not butter, eggs,
vegetables, fruits, canned goods, and
even cordwood?
There are many counties in Idaho
that grow no cherries. Bonneville,
for instance, while here in Clearwater
county the finest of cherries are pro-
duced in abundance at four or five
cents pound. When Lambert
cherries were three cents pound in
Orofino in 1918 the writer was in Idaho
Falls where we oaid 20 cents a pound
for cherries from Utah of much
poorer quality than We produce around
Orofino. At 90 cents pound cherries
are luxury, and practically out OF
reach of any but well to do. At the
same time the people are cherry
starved, and would consume tons anG
tons of them at price that would
afford the Orofino grower large,
profit than he has been getting.
Here, then, are two communities,
one producing cherries and the other
needing them. with only few miles

Some weeks ago we called attention
to the fact that some of Nez Perez
Indians are not observing the laws
regarding marriage and divorce. We
are gratified to note that this condi-
tion does not apply to the majority Of
the tribe. 1t is, however, the few
who violate the laws that gives a
whole community a bad name.
The Commissioner of Indian
Affairs has now authorized the
Superintendent to withhold the funds
of Indians who violate the laws rela-
tive to good morals.
This means that the rents and the
proceeds of the sale of land will moi
be paid to those Indians who persist
in living in an unlawful manner. Az
soon as they change their ways and
correct their manner Of life, they may
receive their money in the usual man.

LET THE PEOPLE DO IT

We believe in preparedness. But
we are not one who would pay mill
lions into the treasury of the Reming-
ton Arms Company, the steel trust, or
any other trust for munitions Of war,
including armor plate. But day or
SO ago the Remington Arms Company
declared dividend of 81, 500, 900 on
an investment of 81, 900, 900, the en-
ormous profits growing out of the
manufacture Of war munitions for
European nations. Figures recently
submitted to Congress show that
Uncle Sam, US common people, who
own this government; us people who
are this government, can. by owning
our own munition plants, make these
things at cost, saving millions. And
there is no reason on earth why we
should pay tribute to private corpora
tions, making war veritable harvest
for few, like the Krupps of Germ
any, thus placing premium on
strife. This nation, us people who
are this milton; we of the villages
ana farms and factories; we who must
do the fighting and suffering anG
carry the burdens when war comes,
should see that all cause for melting
war is removed. If we can manufac-
ture our war supplies, at cost, in
government plants, why should this
government not do SO?
Does anyone doubt that back of the
European war was the Krupp mill
ions, corrupting officials, newspapers,
statesmen, Kings. teaching ano
preaching the propaganda of WAR;
When private capital owns munitions
plants private capital has a motive in
war, and private capital can employ
newspapers and speakers and maya

Farmers Will Remember These Figures

Preaching "America First" and
practising Foreigners First" is a
policy that will embarrass the Demo
Gratis when they come to defend their
record next fall. In the ten months
of Democratic Tariff rates preceding
the outbreak of the war, our imports
of meat and dairy products increased
to $40545, 900 as compared with SIP,

farmer is forgetful of some things,
but he will remember these figures
when he makes up his mind how to
vote next November. The figures are
from official reports.

Way to Fight Pellagra.

New York, Nov. 18.-Pellagra,
from which more than 100000 per-
sons in this country are said to be suf-
fering, can be controlled, according
to a report by commission of the
postgraduate medical school and hos
pital of this city made public today.
The commission also announced its
conclusion that the disease is infec-
tious and is not caused by an unbal-
anced or inadequate diet. They
found the disease spreads through
the lack of proper sewerage facilities
and that the most effective methods
of combating it is by the installation
of efficient sewerage systems.
These findings are the result OF an
extensive investigation which the
commission has conducted in Spar
tanburg county, South Carolina.
The commission admitted that 1t
had not discovered the cause of the
disease, but reported it had disprov-
ed the theories that pellagra was due
to the bite of the black fly, that 1t
was caused by the presence of certain
minerals in drinking water, or by
eating too much corn.
To test it's theory, a sewerage sys-
tenn was built in the Spartan mill vii
age described by the commission as
"the worst pellagro foci in South
Carolina"
The result was, said the report,
that only one person living IN the
severed district contracted the dis
ease in the last twelve months.
From the worst type of pellagra TO-
Gus the district has been changed to
a community in which the disease
no longer spreads" the report de-
clared.
