While popular faith among farmers
In cooperation as means of imprOv-
ing marketing methods has been
strong In recent years and has brought
about the formation of n large number
of associations, the term cooperation
has been employed in such way that
many people have come to believe that
cooperative organization offers q
solution for almost all difficulties en-
countered in the marketing of farm
products. A great deal may be accom-
plished through organized effort when
it is properly applied and correctly
employed, but too much emphasis. say
marketing specialists of the United
States department Of agriculture, can
not be placed on the fact that cooper
alton Is not automatic and is not a
solution for all marketing ills. Faith
in the possibilities of cooperation is
essential to it's success, but this faith
must be expressed in deeds as well as
words.

impossible for me to attempt any re-

had doubtless long ago scuttled it.
They would suddenly find themselves
leaderless, unguided. Would that suf-

cry of his body halt his followers and
send them rushing back to their boat,
eager to get safely away? This did
not seem likely. Estada knew Of my

my being ashore with the killing of
Sanchez. This would satisfy him
there was no further danger. Besides,
these were not men to flee in panic.

that fifty thousand pounds was yonder

to protect the treasure but two old
men asleep, and the women. The

CORN WEEvIL MENACE
TO GRAIN SHIPPERS
Can Use Only Precautionary
Measures in Elevators.
Aim Should Be to Destroy Insects Be-
fore Grain Is Shipped-Estimated
Loss Of 10 Per Cent in
Southern States.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
The grain shipper In the Southern
states has to contend with one prob
lem peculiar to that region which is be-
yond his control. Yet he can Indirect
ly exert an influence toward its eradi-
cation. The problem is weevils in corn.
While the matter rests primarily with
the farmer, and while he Is heavier
loser than the shipper, the business Of
the latter is handicapped.
Against the increase of live weevils
in corn the shipper can use only pre-
cautionary measures while the grain is
in his elevator or in transit after ship
ment. The aim should be to destroy
them before the grain is shipped.
When this Is not done the weevils may
increase enormously in hot weather,
should the car be delayed in transit or
not be unloaded promptly on its ar
rival at the terminal markets
If the grain, when inspected at the
terminal market, Is found to be sim
tested with live weevils or other in
sects injurious to stored grain" 1t will
be graded sample grade under the ap.
plication of the federal grades. Corn
shipped as No. 3, for instance, might
easily fall to sample grade because Of
It's being infested with live weevils.
A point that the grain shipper must
consider is that the corn may go into
storage on It's arrival at terminal
market. No terminal elevator COM
pany will put corn containing live
weevils into it's bins unless intending
to treat the grain at once in order to
kill the weevils.
While the grain dealer can destroy
the weevils in his elevator or ware
house, this does not affect the source
of supply which is on the farm.
1t has been estimated that weevils
cause an average annual loss Of 10 per
cent of the corn crop i'm the Southern
states. This loss, can be prevented
The control of weevils, it is said, is
simple. 1t is discussed at length In

Every grain dealer should send for q
copy.
1t is obvious that the grain dealers
interests are identical with the farm
er's in the matter of the eradication OF
the weevil. Therefore, the grain
dealer should join the farmer in 9

Although soy beans and cOwpeas

time of planting depends largely on the
latitude and the use to be made Of
the crop. AS main grain or hay crop
the best time for planting Is about the
same as for corn, or when the ground
has become thoroughly warm. The
plants will then start quickly and
make a rapid growth. The plants
grow slowly in cool weather, and or

planting earlier than corn. Expert
