DO THE FARMERS WANT
COOPERATION

one OF the Oft repeated phases al
almost any gathering OF men. be
they farmers or business men, is;
This Is day Of cooperation" Is
it? Sometimes we are prones Ia
think that Il is not--but Is should
be.
For years there has been evident
cooperation In business. Business
has not stopped at cooperation but
has developed corporations. ANAL
carnations and associations OF cor
porations OF such gigantic proper.
tions that the ordinary mind cannot
follow the lines OF corporate effort
into the many ramifIcations OF its
multifarious activity.
but whom business men in a small
town talk ABOUT cooperating. even
In a small and simple manner with
their farmer friends. their neighbora
and business customers. there are
those In every community who will
rise and say;
THE, farmer does not want, TO
cooperate with the business man.
Their interests are not In harmony.
The farmer wants TO run his own
business and not be dictated TO by
the merchants" All OF which II
moro OF less true, but not entirely
so.
The farmer must realize that
there ls change taking place among
the business mon OF most small
towns. That change In attitude Is
the basis upon which real benefic-
ial cooperation can he started.
The business man realizes now.
as never before, that his prosperity
ia dependent upon the prosperity OF
his customers, his farmer friends.
Their interests are mutual.
Starting from that premise there
is room for hope that real CO.
operative effort between the bust
ness man and the farmer. Proof OF
this statement is evident In the sue
cessful effort made In organizing
the poultry producers in Canyon

county, Idaho. There under the
impetus given by the leadership
OF the business men, co-operat-
ing With the farm bureau, 55,-
600 chickens we're added to the
number producing eggs to be sold
through the agency of the oregon
Poultry Producers association.
The farm bureau through its mar
keting committee made an effort to
do this work, and had secured a
start. but the farmers we're busy.
Every farmer had his own ranch TO
care for and could not give the time.
but the business men took the time
from their business and by co-opera-
tive effort put II over. They them
selves have nothing to do with the
association. They merely furnish
ed the selling agency for the idea,
the ranchers do the rest.
There is rerfect example OF
cooperative effort. The plan was
worked out, the business men gave
their time to aid the farmers, the
farmers thru the added prosperity
which the work OF the association,
will bring TO them will return bus
mess TO the city of Caldwell which
will recompense the business men
for their effort. Alone the farmers
had not succeeded alone the busi-
ness men would not have succeeded,
united they won.
what is true OF the situation in
Canyon county is true here. Tho
success that was made in Canyon
county can be made here. II is up
TO the business men OF Ontario to
prove to the farmers OF this section
that they are as deeply interested
In their success as the business men
OF Caldwell are Interested in the
success OF their neighbors. The
Argus knows that the business men
are 80 Interested. and we believe
that many OF the rancher know &C.
Others ought TO know Il and they
will. The effort should be made
now to demonstrate this fact In
disputably.

WHAT TAXES PAY ToR

While some OF the men who. like
the editor of the Oregon Voter. are
spending hours OF time and reams
of paper presenting statistics on the
per capita of taxes In various com.
munities. It might be useful for
them to present some figures on
what the taxes pay for.
For example at S45.GO per head,
on an average for all the cities in
Oregon the taxpayer secures:
Police protection, fire protection.
health protection. education for his
children, including instruction from
the primary schools through the
institutions of higher learning; the
farmer receives information and
guidance through the farm bureau
and the extension service In both
farming and marketing.
Nor are these all the things which
out tax money provides. there are
many others which perhaps are not
10 direct. and not 80 much appre-
ciated. for example we have the
scales In stores tested the gasoline
pumps measured. have our electric
fixtures judged. and the machinery
In our manufacturing plants inspect
ed for safe guards etc
The general taxpayer does not
realize the benefits OF many OF
those, and 10 him they do not seem
necessary. In fact they are not noe
ossary. or rather would not be nee
esaary n employers and merchants
were as thoughtful M they ought
20 be.
Then we have for our tax money
services OF state engineers 20 pass
upon irrigation projects and the like,
an office which perhaps the tax
payer In Portland may deem un-
necessary. Tho same n true OF
many other departments whose ac-
tlvlties are confined to particular

VIRTUE THE REWARD

q was always a dreamer. I used to think I would adore forever the woman who married me. I am sure a man has a right to demand virtue in the mother of his children. My wife's attitude toward men is above reproach and always has been. But she never pays any attention to my plea to teach our boy to tell the truth. She says I've no right to find fault, if she flirted as some of her friends do. might object to her little defects"
 In short, virtue is the only reward to be exacted from it, according to the theory of the pretty wife whose husband complains so bitterly.
 The ideas of the psychologists might help her. They say that lying often results from fear. The whipped child forms the lying habit.
 Lying may be overcome. but in the adult, the first step to reform is by way of q confession or acknowledg- ment of error.
 To reform fault in character. one first must admit that the flaw ex- ists.

Around the World in an Open Boat

"Rough seas are an old story to me-" said
Capt Tonning. Il was born In Christiana
and have sailed small craft since l was a
boy, besides serving in the merchant marine.
I've had plenty experiences on fishing boats
in storms. but they are nothing to tell about.
Such things are commonplace TO everybody
in Norway"
shipmates are both 25 When Peterson was
asked If he expected the proposed trip would
run him into greater dangers than he has
ever met on the sea- he merely replied that
he, too. was born in Christiana. Westerling
is native of Chicago. although of Nor
wegian parentage and born sailor.
Their boat is double diagonal built oak
lifeboat 80 feet long, with foot beam. con-
structed by the Atlantic Lifeboat Company.
II has content Of 500 cubic feet about
10 per cent. of which is taken up by air
tanks, designed to keep the craft afioat
whatever happens. As an additional safe
guard there is a cork fender which goes
completely around the boat along the rail
And II all else fails each man has a life
preserving suit which will keep him afloat
until help comes he starves to death
These rubber suits will keep the body at
normal temperature for eight days, even IL
the water be icy cold.
All three of the sailors are expert in the
international and Morse signalling codes
and full equipment of flags and lanterns
has been donated for their use on the trip.
Capt. Tonning said they were somewhat
disappointed at not being able to get an
earlier start. but he figures they still will
be able to get under way in time to take
advantage OF most Of the fair weather sea-
son, thanks to the many donors who are
coming to their aid.
At the clubrooms OF the Norwegian Mas
ters and Mates Association, where the pro-
posed cruise overshadows even the slump in
shipping a topic of discussion, the route
around the world roughly outlined has
been drawn on a large chart that adorns one
OF the walls.
Capt. Tonnng figures they will reach the
Azores in a month from the day they start
n all goes well, and in six weeks at the
longest. The entire voyage he expects io
take sixteen or eighteen months.
