JACK FROST AND SUFFERING.

His Majesty, Jack Frost. paid this
section al unwelcome visit on Tuesday
night of this week. Fortunately all
field and garden products are pretty
much out of danger from his touch,
nevertheless, his presence is and will
be decidedly unwelcome this year be-
cause of the great scarcity of fuel of
all kinds. while the prices asked for
such as may be had are unprecedently
and unreasonably high. This condition
forecasts much shivering and suffering
before the roses bloom again. The
cause is laid at the doors of the coal
barons and railroad moguls per-
haps the insistence for more pay and
shorter hours on the part of the labor
ing forces may have some influence.
But whatever the cause, there is little
possibility of it being backed by good
reason. The spirit of live and let live
seems to have forsaken the American
breast. Until this spirit is reestablished
and that of greed, get-rich-qulck, is
throttled beyond recovery, the country
will remain in a state of chaos, dscon-
tent and more or less unavoidable want
and suffering.
The proper powers can, it is believed,
ferret out the cause, and can by enact
ment of laws that are humane, yea, Di-
vine, put stop to it, and administer
proper punishment and should. There
is no question Of more Importance be-
fore this country today than the need
of annihil1tion of the greedy profiteer

TRADE UNIONS HELD
PARTIALLY TO BLAME
FOR HOUSE SHORTAGE

London, Nov. 2S.-Dr. Christie
pher Addison, minister of health,
blames the trade unions in part
for the shortage of houses in Eng
land. In an article in the Times
he points out that there has been
a great shrinkage of bricklayers,
carpenters, masons and other
branches of the building trades,
and says there are now not enough
men in these trades to do the
work. Yet, he adds, there are
thousands outside of the trades
who are unemployed, but il an at
tempt We're to be made to use
them in building houses 1--WE are
faced with the trade union bar"
The unions contend that if their
numbers are unduly inflated now,
the unemployment among them
will be even greater than ever
when the present demand for
homes has been satisfied. Admit
ting this, DR.. Addison asks;
I'm the face of the national de-
mand for houses, In the face of
the widespread unemployment
among ey-serVice men and others,
can any trade union maintain it's
restrictions? Can one class. one
trade, permanently stand in the
path Of the community and in its
own class interest bar the way to
progress, prosperity, and resettle-
ment? The state which will sub
NIT to such action is saddling it.

COOP BUREAUS
AMONG FARMERS
ARE SUGGEST Ill
Agencies Did More Than
S600,000,000 Worth of
Business In the Last IL
Months, Reports Indicate.
(By The Associated Prsss)

Kansas City, Mo, Nov, 2S,--Co-
operative agencies, selling and pur-
chasing, together with commercial
enterprises conducted by the Ma
tional Farmers union, an organi-
Zation of 5000 members, did an
aggregate business of more than
$500. 900 in the last twelve
months, according to reports sub
mitted at the annual union conven-
ton here.
Strung across more than twenty
states the business activities of the
union have become most important
factors in the farming Industry
and the agency feature presents the
only working cooperative plan to-
day, according to officials.
The agencies are maintained pri-
marily to bring to the members the
highest market prices for what
they produce and to offer them
commodities at the lowest prices.
Under the plan the farmer-mem-
ber ships his produce or livestock
to the nearest selling agency. There
it is taken in charge by men who
have his interests at heart and not
sold until the highest price has
been commanded. For the pur-
chase of commodities he needs, the
member turns to the purchasing
agency, whether he wants calico,
two by fours or steam tractor.
He finds them offered, officials
say, at prices considerably below
those he would have to pay ordi-
narily. This is possible, they eX-
plain, from the fact that the agen-
cy is able to get better prices be-
cause it purchases in carload lots
and the profit of the middle man
is eliminated.
As in the case of the agencies,
the business enterprises of the
union are conducted by men drawn
from the organizations member
ship. In Kansas where that feature
has been given especial attention
more than 700 elevators, stores,
mills. lumber yards, etc, are in op-
Grafton.
The operating expenses of the
selling and purchasing agencies,
officials say, come from money de-
Quoted when sales are made for
members and from margins real
ized from sales of commodities to
the members. In both cases, they
say, the sum realized from the in
diyidual is nominal. II there is a
surplus at the end of the year the
money is pro-rated back among
the members.
