to make a decent living out of his
labor. Competition is said to be
the life Of trade but "cutthroat" COM
petition is frequently SO wasteful
that it kills trade. Cooperative
business has become accepted for tho
farmer, and, he said, 1T Is the sal
walton Of the future" The farm
bureau is taking the lead in the
movement to make cooperative mar
keting associations in interstate COM
merce legal in the United States.
The farmer is invariably q seeker
after the square DEAL, Dr.. Nader
stated, and the reason he has not
been uniformly successful in his bust
ness is because he has been lost In
tle economic word. When a man
Is lost 1t is not because he does not
know where he himself is, but be-
cause he does not know where the
other fellow stands. The farm bureau
aims to give the farmers business
contact with each other.
Cooperation between the dairyman
the beekeeper. the berry grower, and
other agricultural interests is sought
by the farm bureau as the founda-
ton OF successful food production,
and it is the first agency to success
fully bring the different agricultural
! organizations. 1t does not seek to
displace any Of the existing organi-
cations, but to build them up and
enable to serve common purpose.
The state college is trying to serve
the whole people. and through the
farm bureau aims to reach the
farmers.
! Rural Minds Greatest.
George J. Cannon of Spokane
county. who spoke in the absence of
w. w. Underwood, stated that the
farm bureau gave him great hope
of social and cultural progress in the
life of the farmer. In his study OF
history. Mr.. Cannon said that he had
been impressed with the fact that
rural minds are the greatest He
had seen many movements for the
relief of the economic burden of the
farmer rise and fall until he had
almost given up hope. But the farm
bureau had renewed his hope because
1t aims to bring the producer and
the consumer into direct relation
ship. He had repeatedly been
alarmed by the signs Of Industrial
unrest. but now he had been con.
WINGED that there need be no violent
revolution because the means of bust
ness organization are within the
reach of the farmer. After three gen.
erations of sleep he has begun to wax
up to his opportunity. He hoped that
every farmer would support the cause
of the Farm Bureau and take advan-
tage of its economic, educational,
and social opportunities.

that Yelm alone had ordered 33 tons

farm in the county having 1900

SINK OR SWIM TOGETHER.

Labor is useless without
management. Capital is use
less without management,
Management must pay market
rates of wages both to labor
and capital to obtain their
services. The wages of labor
are in proportion to efficiency.
If management fails, labor
loses its job and part of its
market, capital loses its wages
and part or all of itself. If
management succeeds, it takes
its profit, part of which it may
re-invest as its own capital,
thus charging its business
and adding to the market for
labor. Recognition of these
elemental facts of business
would add much to an Under
standing of the relations
bet ween labor and capital. -
