(WlliC! Is not eNDerSiVe) and salt,
which also costs but little, in
oreases the sales value of that but
terfal by at least 20 per cent.
Do not understand that this in
crease is an illegitimate one it is
entirely proper, and butter could
not be made without the addition
of water and salt-but here's the
point: When butter is made in your
own cooperative creamery you get
that twenty per cent. When you
ship your butterfat away the other
fellow gets it. On this one item of
loss alone the shipping farmers of
North Dakota are losing hundreds
of thousands of dollars annually.
Hadn't you better follow the ex-
ample of your farmer neighbors
down in Todd county, and put a
stop to that loss T? The co-opera-
tive creamery also effects large saw
ings in the marketing of butter.
The weekly product of one or two
creameries shipped together fills
car, which because it is filled can
be sent right through to New York
direct, in a short time and at
minimum cost. Arriving in New
York, it can be sold direct to the
dealers, and because the shipment
can be depended on every week,
the very best and most advantage
Gus sales relation can be made.
This means that the farmers of the
creamery not only save for them
selves all the profit there is to be
made in manufacturing, but they
sell their product at the highest
price with the very lowest price for
making the sale.
Thus it is that the cooperative
creamery, working as it does to
return to the farmer every dollar
of profit there is legitimately in the
butter business, is the agency
which encourages dairying, argues
the farmer into dairying and then
keeps him there after he embarks
in the business.
COOPERATIVE CREAMERY sTIMU-
LATES DAIRYING
And now, my friends, my part
ing advice to you is that if you
want to do something really worth
while for the dairy business in
North Dakota, that you go home
and boost for the cooperative
creamery.
Your dairy industry will never
get on to the right basis until you
have the help which the CO. opera
tive creamery can give you.
Cooperative creamery associa-
tions are not hard to organize.
They have been an immense sue
cess in Minnesota over long per-
iod of years. This will answer the
argument that the cooperative
creamery is an experiment. The
cooperative creamery, in fact, has
been so successful in my state
that it has been the means of
teaching the farmers to work to-
gether in other ways. It has been
the breeder of the cooperative
spirit t-co-operative sentiment. and
so it has not only brought prosper
ity to our communities, but it has
been the agency for the promotion
of good neighborhood- the bring
ing of men closer together. 1t will
do the same for you and your COM
munity. BY all means, if you want
to make your dairy future certain,
boost for the cooperative cream

two thousand or three thousand year,

visible ruins of others. when may

Woodrow Wilson's
Appeal to America
MAGMA Charter Of the World Liberia
ting Great Peoples Of Earth is
Worthy Of Endorsement.

Washington, June 28.-Pres-
ident Wilson in an address to the
American people, on the occasion
of the signing of the peace
treaty made a plea for the ac-
ceptance of the league OF nations
without change or reservation.
His message, as given out here
by Secretary Tumulty, said:
1.-The treaty of peace has been
signed. If it is ratified and act
ed upon in full and sincere ex-
ecution of its terms, it will furn-
| ish the charter for a new order
of affairs in the world. 1t is a
severe treaty in the duties and
penalties it imposed upon Ger
many, it is severe only because
the great wrongs done by Ger
many are to be repaired; it inn
poses nothing that Germany can
mot do; and she can regain her
rightful standing in the world
by the prompt and honorable
| fulfillment of its terms.
And it is much more than a
treaty of peace with Germany.
LII liberates great peoples who
!, have never before been able to
+ find the way to liberty. 1t ends
once for all an old and intoler-
E able order under which small
Il groups of selfish men could ust

Meats in Storage

Every working day of the year
75,OOO 600 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept in mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau OF
Markets report that on June !, 1919, :
there were l,348,OOO. 900 pounds of
meats in cold storage. If the meat in
storage was placed on the market it (
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not arti6cially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of 4
IS per cent (approximate) hams, bacon. ETC.,
in process Of curing. 1t takes 80 to 80
days in pickle or salt to complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured
later in the year.
per cent is lard. This is only,four-6ft
Of pound per capita, and much Of 1t wall

70 per cent is frozen beef and lamb, part Of !
which 10 owned by the Government and
was intended chiefly for oversees ship:
ment. If this were all divertedSto domes-
tic trade channels, it would be only

From this il will be seertthat "ineats
