Commissions On Handling

Thirty to Thirty Five Per Cent Reduction, Amounting to Four

Operative Organization at st. Paul

st. Paul, MINI. "A cut of 80 to IS per cent, amounting to
81 to Sc per car load in love stock commissions has been an
nounced by the Equity Cooperative Exchange, the farmers SELL
ing agency at South st. Paul. It is declared the cut is made in
view Of the present low prices of live stock, Manager r. B. Wood
stating that at present high prices til is unjustifiable to maintain
the commission charges heretofore in effect.
This is the first time in its existence the Equity Cooperative
Exchange has ever "cut prices" it is said, but in this instance
the Equity is the only firm that has recognized conditions and
started back to normally" The Equity is the largest firm in the
yards but one, and is the only firm whose business shows any in
crease over the corresponding six months Of last year. Its bust
ness has increased 80 per cent while the general yard receipts
have fallen off 20 per cent.
Hundreds of shippers in North Dakota, it is said, will vel
come the cut in commission rates by the farmers organization.

THE RED, RED WEST

written by Eugene Field and pub
lished in the Chicago Daily News
over thirty years ago.
I've travelled in heaps of countries
and studied all kinds of art
Till there isn't critic or connoisseur
who's properly deemed so smart
And I'm free to say that the grand re-
suits of my explorations show
That somehow paint gets redder the
further out West you go,
I've slipped the voluptuous sherbert
that the Orientals serve.
And I've felt the glow of red Bordeaux
tingling each separate nerve;
I've sampled your classic Massic I'M
der an arbor green.
And I've reeked with song whole
night long over brown poteen.
The stalwart brew of the land O
cakes. the schnapps of the frugal
Dutch.
The much-praised wine Of The distant
Rhine. and the beer praised over
much,
The ale of dear old London and the
port of southern climes.
All, ad infin., have taken in hun
dred thousand time,.
Yet. as / aforementioned. Il use other
charms are naught
Compared with the paramount gor-
geousness with which the West IS
fraught:
For art and nature are just the same
IN the land where the porker grows,
And the paint keeps eettiag .,ddcr
the further out West ore goes.
Our savants have never discovered
the reason why this is 50,

experienced railroad men had proved
to the satisfaction of Congress that
wages could not stay up or rates go
down. Mr.. Ford proceeded to prove
that both things were possible by vol
unfairly cutting freight tariffs. AS for
the wage situation, after looking 1t
could stay up, but that they could go
up more. Now after two months ex
perience, he has decided that rates
can be reduced an additional 20 per
cent.
Mr.. Fords experience raises a ques-
ton In our minds which affects not
only the railroads, but the entire in
dustrial structure of the United
States. How much of this loudly
heralded inefficiency of labor is due
to inefficiency in management? About
rs per cent says the now famous re-
port of the organized American en-
gineers, recently made to Secretary
Herbert Hoover. a report drawn after
exhaustive study of industrial con
ditions by body which certainly can
not be accused of any prediction for
labor. 1t may be taken for granted
that Mr.. Ford's unique experience Is
due to his manner and not to any
particular difference In the skill of
the men employed upon his railroad.
The term "inefficiency of labor" is
very handy epithet 1t may be a ei-
mary fact in industry. and then again
it may only serve to cloak slack or
careless management A careless
stroe of the sculptor's chisel may
ruin the marble and it is very easy
for him to claim flaw. AS for our
selves. we are becoming somewhat
skeptical and are inclined to ash
whether or not there are not some
careless chisel marks in American
industry.

posite side of the street form the

for the accommodation of several new

cision which must be faced by the
farmers of every section of this broad
land. Shall they join in the move
ment to market their 0crops CO.
operatively. or shall they continue as
at present? 1t is business question
which each individual farmer must
decide for himself, and in order to do
so intelligently he should take ad-
vantage of every opportunity to in
form himself. There are those who
criticize the new plan. The question
raised should not be kept in the dark.
1t should be studied carefully in
making decision. and If the new
plan y sound the sooner the country
finds It out the better. And the way
to find out is to talk with your neigh
Dor and discuss both the weak and
