The Farmer Needs Costs Cut.

The tendency to lower prices paid for
farm products, while war prices are
maintained on products the farmer has
to buy, was declared to be the cause of
present dissatisfaction that might lead
to far-reaching economic results by
Dean H. L. Russell of the University
of Wisconsin college of agriculture.
Unless the condition is speedily re-
medied the farmer will be further dis
couraged and will have greater distrust
of the economic system, which permits
this situation to continue, the dean says
His specific proposal as remedy is for
business men in Wisconsin to get into
closer touch with agriculture.
eff we permit agriculture to decline
food costs will of necessity mount, and
our industrial life will be built upon
very shaky foundation" he said.
"Manufacturlng and business ara best
off in areas of food surplus We have
it within our power to keep Wisconsin
out of the food deficit class"
To establish his contention the dean
listed the costs of typical commodities.
Corn, he says, is selling at 1876 per cent
of the prewar level. Oats are somewhat
above the prewar basis, with hogs
reaching 134 per cent.
In contrast, it is pointed out, lumber
is 228 per cent of the prewar cost, pig
iron 324 per cent. crude petroleum $50
per cent, coke $40 per cent and manu-
factured articles holding a level of like
proportion
The program of dean Russell for de-
velopment of Wisconsin agriculture is
threefold: The further cutting out of
waste and disease. Doing away with
unnecessary costs of distribution. Sup
porting production

MRS. MARGARET JAyNES DEAD.
Tho End Came on May 28th, at tho
Home Of w. u. Brewer.
(Farm and Factory, 10th. }

Mrs. Margaret Jaynes died at the
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. P. Brewer
on May %. She was born April 80,
1884, and was SO years Of age at the
time of her death. She had been at
the home of her nephew, w. p.
Brewer, during her illness Of nine
teen weeks. She was patient suf-
ferer, never speaking an unkind
word to those who so kindly cared
for her In her last sickness. She was
a member Of Poplar Springs Baptist
church, having united with that
church when a young girl. She al
ways held her membership with that
church.
During her illness she asked her
niece, Mrs. Brewer, to read some in
the Bible for her. Mrs. Brewer asked
her what passage Of Scripture she
would like best, and she replied,
Read any of the Scripture; it is
all good" Mrs. Brewer opened the
Bible at st. John, 14th chapter, and
read the chapter through. Rev. W.
F. Sinclair called to see her few
days later. She asked him to read
for her. He asked for her special
Scripture, and she again replied that
1t was all good. And he read to her
the 14th chapter Of St. John, not
knowing that it had been read to
her before.
Mrs. Jaynes leaves one son, an
S-year-old child, to mourn her death.
She was sister of the late w. A.
Brewer, Of near Seneca.
Funeral services were held at Pop
lar Springs church, the services be-
ing in charge Of Rev. w. T.. Sinclair,
pastor Of the Jordania Baptist.
church. He used the same Scripture
the 14th chapter Of st. John, the
same he had read to her during he:
illness.
Her remains were laid to rest in
the Poplar Springs cemetery. Many
beautiful flowers were strewn on her
grave as emblems Of love and friend

Nfne-Cent Sugar.
CGreenville Piedmont. }

\.
Nine-cent sugar has arrived-in
Queensland, Australia.
This on the authority Of Edward
C. Theodore, Queensland premier,
now in New York, on his way to
England.
Queensland has most OF the cane
sugar mills which supply Australia.
Their annual output is 100000 tons.
There are 40 cane mills, OF which
are State property
There is a system Of labor courts
to determine a fair living wage for
the employees, both on plantation
and mill. The workers, the farmers
and the government are represented
on these boards.
inen tnere Is fair price court for
each mill. This includes representa-
tlves or the cane growers, the cane
m1llers and the government, with
technical experts as advisers. 1t de-
term1nes fair price for the cane to
be sent 10 each mill.
All the raw sugar is produced by
the State, under the law passed by
the Labor government. The price
paid by the government is the cost
or the cane, plus the cost Of normal
operation, with allowance for inter-
est on the investment. The higher
the efficiency of the mill, the better
price it gets. This puts a premium
on efficient operation The State
owned mills pay better price to
the farmers than the privately owned
mills, because they do not have to
pay profit on their investm ent.
The result-sugar at nine cents
pound to eVorybody.
