provisions of the state laws in tehir
methods of handling products, the in
speCtors declare.
Fines aggregatng a total of little
less than $1,000 have been assessed
against Cmatilla county men during
the period that the inspectors have
been here.

amendments have been introduced into

hope Of widening the scope Of the law.

operate the business for their service.

GRAIN DEALERS MUST
LEARN THEIR LESSON

We want to call special attention to
the address of D. E. Lyday, present
Commissioner of Warehouses and Mar
kets, delivered before the Texas Grain
Dealers Association at Galveston, re-
Gently. 1t is worth a careful reading.
The fight is on. Nor is it confined
to Texas or to grain. There is no
doubt, can be no doubt. as to who will
win, The agrarian movement is un-
der full Roadway. Nothing can stop
it.
The grain spectators, cotton specu-
lators, and every other class Of unnec-
essary middlemen, rendering no ade-
quate return for the money they make
under present conditions, must find
something else to do. Their parisitism
will be tolerated only so much longer
as may be necessary to set up new and
better ways of doing business.
The farmers have very distinct
idea that they know how to set up and
maintain better ways of doing, and
they have the power and the resources

WHAT is EDUCATION?

They are at it again, trying to de-
termine when a man is educated. A
man is educated when he knows how
to do what he can do, and extract from
his performance a sufficient economic.
intellectual, and spiritual satisfaction.
A man who cannot do that is not ed
ucated. no matter what his knowledge
of books may be. That man is best
educated who knows the greatest NUM-
Der of things that are so. and who can
do the greatest number Of things to
help and heal the world. Schools are
useful only as they put men in posses
sion of their own powers; and they
cannot do this without the earnest de-
sire of their students to be so helped.
Any man can learn anything he will
but no man can teach except to those
who want to learn, Education is pre-
eminently a matter of quality, not
amount.-Henry Ford.
Vernon Parish Democrat. (Leesville, La.) 1917-193?, 1921-07-14

The Pacific Cooperative League,
one Of the largest and oldest consum-
ers cooperative organizations in the
United States, has found it necessary
to incorporate a companion organiza-
tion-a 100000 corporation. Cir
cumstances, it is explained, over which
it has no control, have forced the
adoption of this plan.
Under the State Cooperative Law
of California, " says the consulting at
torney for the Pacificc Cooperative
League, the League has been financ-
ed by varying amounts from its mem
bers, such sums having been received
as loan capita. This plan was used
in order to secure democratic control
and to limit membership liability. 1t
has recently been suggested by prom
inent credit men, however, that in such
a case the loan capital puts the mem
ber-creditors on a par with merchan-
disc creditors. That is not the case,
as the bylaws of the League specifi-
cally state the contrary. The agree
ment is with the members, also, that
Withdrawals of capital shall not be per-
mitted, and that the membership funds
paid in shall have no claim in case of
liquidation until all merchandise cred
itors are paid. The impression, how
ever, has been allowed to spread err
roneously that the League has no cap
ital and, consequently, no fixed assets
end therefore no credit rating.
This entirely erroneous impression
has practically stopped the credit Of
the League and forced this incorpora-
ton Of new company under which
the loan capital subscribed by the
members may be taken up and con-
verted into capital stock of regu.
lar type easily understood in the bus
mess world.
The Pacific Cooperative League
embraces some $1,000 members anc
was originally incorporated under the
California Cooperative Law, in 1913
1t operates fifty stores at present ii

and the business sense to set them up.
They are setting them up right now,
and at really marvellous rate, consid-
ering the magnitude of the undertake
ing.
Every day of the past eight months
has emphasized the need of the farm
ers entering into business, and politics,
too, for themselves, and their minds
are made up. They are prepared to
go all the way. They have learned
few things, many things, about the
way other big businesses are run, and
they, through their own spokesman
and through their own representatives.
are prepared to match wits and sound
business principles and economics with
any class of people in the United
States or elsewhere.
Grain dealers and others of their ilk
may as well prepare to square their
businesses with the new day in farm
ers' business that is coming, else they
may find it too late.
A mere handful, in number. of far
mers who make hay in half dozen
South Texas counties have measured
swords with the hay dealers already
and have completely routed them.
