Each concern doing business is de-
veloped to size and an efficiency that
enables it TO render essential market
ing services at minimum cost and
hence handle products for a smaller
portion of the consumers dollar.
Local units are enabled by federated
organization to gain benefits because
the system thus made is large enough
to feed markets and stabilize price, so
far as this is economically and compe-
titively possible, by:
Building up adequate financing ar
engagements;
Storing seasonal surplus for sale in
deficit producing periods.
Obtaining adequate supply and de-
mand facts concerning markets the
country over;
Providing necessary and adequate
connections, through which products
may be sold constantly.
Advertising to expand markets and
to create or engage the stable con-
sumner demand;
Placing adequate premiums upon
EQUALITY production to guarantee con-
sumers supply of what they want,
turns for their efforts.
While many important benefits may
be derived from efficient marketing
4 organization it should be fully realiz-
/ ed that organization can accomplish
some things and not others. Some
farmers hold that because it costs
them a certain figure to produce CIV
en- product, prices should therefore be
high enough at least to cover this cost
with a profit besides if possible. 9th
ers, such as the members of farmers
marketing declarations in California,
have learned by experience that it is
more practical to go after the highest
stabilized prices that the markets will
afford. Then, when the best prices
obtainable are too low to cover costs
and provide a profit, they change pro
duction to other lines where prices are
remunerative.
/ Farmers, therefore, should devote
their energies to creating actual organ
izations that will distribute products
stabilize prices, and offer goods anc
services to consumers under improved
conditions. IN this way Wisconsin
farmers can actually stabilize prices
and secure higher proportion of what
the consumer pays.

SAVE enough
SEED T0LAST
TWO YEARS

Wisconsin is having one Of the best
corn years in history. A favorable
season is fastening the ripening of the
crop, and there is every indication that
there will be plenty of seed corn for
next spring.
But despite these favorable pros
poets E. D. Holden of the agronomy de
partment of the University of Wis
consin, is urging the farmers of the
state to clay by" liberal stock of
seed. Wisconsin has had some severe
lessons in the past few years on the
subject of seed corn shortage.
eve will have only ourselves to
blame if bad season next year leaves
us without seed for the following
spring and forces us into mad scram-
BILE to secure anything in the way of
seed corn which can be dug up from
the feeding cribs of the neighboring
states" declares Mr.. Holden. "This
has happened in the past; let us see
that it does not happen again. Save
seed corn enough for two years."
Mr.. Holden is asking the growers to
take extra care in selecting and stor-
ing the seed ears this fall in order to
Increase the vigor and stand of the
crop next summer. By going through
the field before the crop is harvested
and picking good-looking typical ears
from large, healthy, leafy stalks, seed
of strong character can be secured
"The greatest cause of uneven stand
and missing hills is poorly cured seed"
says Mr.. Holden. "In order to be sure
of strong viable seed, it is essential
that the selected ears be taken indoors
and hung up to dry where there is
good circulation of air, and in freez-
ing weather, heat from stove or fur
mace. After the seed corn is thorough
ly dried, it may be stored in any con-
venient place where it will remain dry,
and where the mice cannot get at it.
Well-cured seed corn will stand freez-
ing temperature without injury, and |
assures good start toward a full |
stand of vigorous plants next year"
