| TO START SWEET POTATOES
Tubers Are Propagated From Sets or

Hotbed

Sweet potatoes are propagated from
sets of shoots which spring from the
tubers, when they are planted and
form the tips of the runners. The
sets are obtained by planting the pota-
toes in a hotbed. The roots should be
bedded five or six weeks before the
sets are wanted for planting out. The
sets are broken from the potatoes for
transplanting when they are three or
four inches high and others form in
their place, so that in all two to four
crops are obtained.

COOPERATION IS BEST PLAN
Latest Report of Success Comes From
Wheat Belt of kansas-Farmers
Organize Company.

CBy JAMES PIERCE. in Iowa Home
steady
am a firm believer in cooperation
among farmers. Ends can be attained
by organized effort which are abso-
lutely impossible by individual and
spasmodic effort Therefore. whenever
! see notable examples of cooperative
success | propose to tell you about
them. That / will have ready hearers
| do not doubt, for nowhere has the
cooperative movement made greater
Roadway than here in the grain belt.
Wisconsin has the honor to lead all
the states in the number and strength
of its cooperative activities, furnish
ing an example which other states
might we'll afford to follow.
The latest report of cooperative
success comes from the heart OF the
wheat belt in Kansas, where farmers
who have organized a stock and grain
company have not only realized 10 per
cent on their investment, but the prof,
its have been sufficiently large to en-
able them to declare a dividend OF
one cent bushel on all the grain ham
died in the last year. The fact that
since June, 1915, the company has
handled more than los, 900 bushels OF
corn and wheat and "a carloads OF
stock shows the extensiveness Of the
operations. The greater part of this
| los 900 bushels of grain handled was
sold by farmers who were not stock
holders of the company. Many of them
came for long distances, even pass
ing other elevators on the way. Here
is splendid refutation of the charge
sometimes made that farmers cannot
and will not hold together in an or
ganization such as this.
The farmers organization thus 81
signally successful was formed eigh
years ago to buck one Of the old-lin'
elevator concerns. and 1t was only I
few years until the old-line compan!
was glad to sell out and leave thu
farmers in complete control Orig
nally the concern was capitalized
$4,000, but last June the capital stocl
was doubled, the membership beinI
increased to 80. In 1914 the compan,
had 243 grain customers and last yea
"a more were added.
To me, there is something really II
spring about such story, proving tn
farmers capacity for extensive bus
ness effort. / have attended CONVEX
tons of farmers and farm student
and heard the argument repeatedl
made that farmers would not hold t
their agreements. l have always d.
MED these assertions. but my oppt
nents have demanded facts, rathe
than opinions. l am now well arme
for them, for the facts which l hav
set forth here are indisputable.
