The value Of roads to a rural district
is becoming more and more apparent.
The modern problem in road work Is
not to show the need of good roads or
to raise money. The greater problem
before the whole country is to organ
lie so the funds in sight can be prop.

Use for Old Batteries.

In open fireplaces, especially where
wood is used for fuel, a gorgeous col
ored-fire effect may be produced, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, by
placing one or two old dry cells among
the hot Goals. The substance with
which the top of the battery is sealed
soon burns away, and the heat sets
up chemical action. producing a gas
which burns with a flame of vivid
blue, purple and green. One old dry
cell will continue the spectacle for
from half to three-quarters of an hour,
depending upon the heat of the fire
in which it is placed. No danger at
taches to this production of colored
fire. 1t costs nothing, inasmuch as old
dry batteries are ordinarily worthless,
but it will provide both pleasure and
amusement at fireside gatherings.

producer plus the transportation and
carriage charges and payment for the
time given by the committee. The
only particular in which further safe
guarding is suggested is to make sure
that the product purchased is of good
and uniform grade or quality.
The outstanding advantage is that
the individual member takes part in
the purchase of a particular carload
shipment and when this has been de-
livered and paid for the responsibility
of the individual ceases. He is then
free to choose whether or not he de-
sires to participate in any other pur-
chase. Any change in price that may
occur during the period of delivery
must be borne by the members partici-
pating in the purchase rather than
by the association as whole. The in
dividuals directly associated in the par
ticular purchase become responsible
for whatever speculative feature may
be involved and the association as an
association is not entangled In the
event of decline. If the lot were

If the association purchases for re-

the whole, has not been successful in

The conclusion is reached that the |
principle is that all CO.
operative buying and selling, like all |
other buying and selling, is essentially |
a business enterprise which, if it is to |
succeed, must be grounded on business
principles, must be organized in recog-
milton of the fact that every service to
be secured by the members must be
paid for, and that, therefore, the prin-
cipal way to reduce costs is to reduce
the services required.

Cooperative buying is profitable to
consumers only when fewer services
are required by the cooperative meth
cd than would be required by the old
trade channel methods. In other words,
the economies secured by consumers
through cooperative buying are eff
fected for the most part by dispensing
with certain services that they have
been in the habit of receiving, and pay
ing for, under the old system. Every
service rendered in cooperative buy
ing must be paid for by the consumer
just as under the established middle
man system. 1t follows, therefore,
that the principal way to reduce costs
is to reduce the services required.
This is the gist of the views held
and expressed by the United States
department of agriculture through it's
cooperative experts in the bureau of
markets. One of these experts recent
ly detailed some experiences to show
that the organization of the village
community for cooperative buying and
selling may be made relatively simple.
In suburb of an eastern city, he said,
a plan has been adopted for the pur-
chase of CARROTS of certain commodi-
ties under which a community commit
tee undertakes to contract for the
purchase of carlot of potatoes, say,
direct from a producers association,
and to deliver them direct from the
car TO the homes of the consumers
who have placed orders for portions
of the lot. The car is placed on sid
ing in the suburb, a drayage concern
Is employed to deliver the potatoes to
the homes of the contracting consum-
ers who pay cash at the time of de-
livery TO the committee, which, in
turn, settles with the growers assOcf-
ton.
Advantages of Simple System.
This is pointed out as simple sys-
tenn with these advantageous features:
Each purchase is confined to a sim
gle commodity at a specific time. The
commodity is purchased direct from an
association of producers. The entire
transaction is handled by a committee |
which is paid simply for the time ac-
tually devoted to the work. No out !
lay is involved for storage or ware
house facilities because the commOd- |
ity is taken directly from the car to the
homes. Even the carriage expenses are
considerably reduced by contract ar
rangement for delivery of the entire
carload. The total costs paid by the |
consumer are the price paid to the
