SHIPPING ASSOCIATION ORGANIC.
FD

Fifty Hand County citizens met in
the Opera House, Friday, July 23rd.,
In response to the call of the Farm
Bureau to organize a Hand Co. Co
operative Live Stock Shipping Asso-
citation. The gathering made up in
enthusiasm what it lacked in numbers.
II. K. Conkey of Sioux Falls made a
splendid address on cooperative mar
kcting of live stock Some remark
able figures were given to show the
development of direct marketing by
farmers. Mr.. Conkey stated that S5
per cent of the livestock received on
the st. Paul marketed through Co
operative Shipping Associations. In
Sioux City As per cent, Sioux Falls So
er cent and Chicago So per cent of all
I've stock received Is marketed direct
by farmers through their own asso-
Citations. Instead of $50 Cooperative
Associations in the Country as prev
iOusly stated, there are over 5000 and
this number is being increased rapid
ly. Cooperative marketings no long
er ia-the experimental stage This
rapid growth is due to the success
Ok this method of marketing. The
first cooperative marketing associa-
ton was begun in Minnesota eleven
years ago.. From the success of that
venture has come the large number
Of associations of today.
The Hand County Association adopt
cd a Constitution and Bylaws, Fri
day and voted to affiliate with the

PERSONAL PREJUDICES.

I never censure a man who does not
agree with my philosophy. I only
pity him.
1. don't know why some musical
comedies are advertised under the
head OF "Amusements."
I do not fear a reactionary presi-
dent. In fact I rather favor n just
now. I believe we have had enough
bunk. y.
don't like near-beer and I don't
care how far away it gets.
1 think Fred. Stone is the best aero
batic dancer in the world and Fatty
Arbuckle the heaviest screen star.
I DOM: believe in the ouita board or
in those who believe in it.
I would like Lloyd George much
better If he would have his hair cut.
I dislike men who relate their ex-
periences with women, because most
Of the experiences are not true.
I will never write a drama because
I know it wouldn't be any good it. I,
and I have sat through too many.
L always enjoy reading dramatic
I believe a dramatic criti-
cfsm expresses one mans opinion
