PROHIBITION HIT
BOTTLE MAKERS
Cut Off 20 Per Cent of Their
Business at One Fell
SwoOp.

ATLANTIC CITY, July 30.-Pro-
hibition, at one fell swoop, cut of
fully 20 per cent of the business
of the bottle manufacturers of this
country, declared W. E. Gundling, of
Wheeling, w. Va, secretary of the
National Bottle Manufacturers As
sociation, which held a conference
here last week on business prob
lens.
The increase in the soft drinks
trades business has made up a part
of this, Mr.. Gundling stated, but
the most enthusiastic estimate
would not place this increase, at
more than 10 per cent, SO that busi-
ness amounting in the millions an
nually is still lost to the bottle
men. The consequence has been. ii
was stated by Mr.. Gundling and
others attending the executive ses-
sions of the conference, that the
business outlook as seen by the va
rious speakers is clouded with
gloom.
1t was predicted, however, that
cheaper labor and cheaper raw ma
terials will soon come to the rescue
of the bottle industry, and this may
serve to help business, which is at
the present time stagnant.
1t was announced that more than
a half hundred manufacturers in this
country and parts of Canada are
represented at the conference. Next
Monday wage conferences open be-
tween the manufacturers, with
George w. Yost, Bellaire, Ohio, pre-
siding, AMI the Glass Bottle Blow
ers' Association, with John H. Voll
of Philadelphia, president, and
James Maloney, Of Scranton, Pa,
vice president, leading the discus
sion. 1t was predicted today that
a wage reduction would come out
of the conference.

HELPING OURSELVES.

"The law of worthy life is funda-
mentally the law of strife. 1t is only
through labor and painful effort; by
grim energy and resolute courage,
chat we move on to better things"
Theodore Roosevelt.
ANY kind of success worth hav-
ing never arrives unexpectedly" and
so it is in our Farm Bureau work.
Practically every farmer admits that
it is only through comparatively
marketing our crops and purchasing
our supplies, that he will receive full
value. "He has discovered that his
problem can only be solved finally by
himself, the problem being how to
get his wheat, corn, potatoes, beans,
apples and such to the American
housewife without allowing too many
volunteers to assist him."
The idea of cooperation has taken
hold all over the country. With the
average farmer it is becoming a ques-
ton of not whether he shall coop
crate, but how. And right here is
where some men are not big enough
to take the word of the majority, but
if they "can't have their way, they
won't play" How true the saying is,
"a little man never admits a mis-
take,-a big man does"
Well friends, whether we like the
way the business is handled or not,
cooperative marketing is coming as
sure as fate, and the best way for
you to have your say is to get in on
the ground floor and back your To-
cal marketing proposition to the
limit. 1t is only by having local mar
keting organizations that the full
benefits of the great Elevator Ex-
change, the Purchasing Department,
the Seed Department, and in fact the
whole State Farm Bureau, will be re-
ceived. AS we have said before,
every cooperative elevator in the
county should be linked up with the
State Farm Bureau. To this end let
every Farm Bureau member use his
influence in getting these elevators
into the exchange, so that a place of
business will be established in each
community, and every community
may receive all the benefits of the
Farm Bureau.
Did you read the poem in the March
issue, "The Fellow Who Sticks?
We have a lot Of fellows who stick,
and they are going to be the ones who
will stay with this proposition until it
is firmly established. Then every
body will want to get in.

The following articles are from the
Shiswsssee County Farm Bureau News:
Increased Crop Yields
From Registered Guaranteed Seeds.

From Registered Guaranteed Seeds.
"Blood tells" not only in livestock
or poultry, but in seeds as we'll.
whatsoever We SOW, that shall We
also reap" is still very true as regards
farm seeds as we'll as our personal
lives. No matter how rich the soil
or how we'll prepared the seed bed,
if the seed used has not been selected
for purity, high yielding qualities,
adaptability and freedom from dis
ease, we have no assurance of good
crop. On the other hand, we know
that in a pure strain of wheat, oats,
clover or potatoes, that "like pro-
duces like" as is the case in pure
lines of livestock. Knowing these
facts, is it not as important to use
seeds of known quality and pureness,
as it is to properly fit the seed bed?
Poor seed, of doubtful origin, is bet
ter out of the ground than in it. 1t
is easy for us to get into a rut and
because our fathers have made liv-
ing without paying much attention to
the seed used, we sometimes say that
what was good enough for father is
good enough for me. However, the
world moves on, and if we keep pace
and keep our children contented on
the farm, our acres must continue to
Weld more with as little or less effort
than heretofore.
One of the easiest ways to increase
our yields with no increased labor, is
by the use of bodybuilding "Regis-
tered" seeds. By Registered" we
mean seeds passing inspections in the
field as to purity, quality, and pro-
duction, and when this seed produced
is found to be free from disease, it is
Registered" by the Michigan Crop
Improvement association.
Judged from a business standpoint
it is good business policy to invest
our money where it will yield the
best returns. If by using these
Registered" seeds, we increase our
Yields; produce a more uniform crop,
which sells more readily than a mixed
crop, and brings more money, is not
this the best kind of investment?
There should not be a spear of COM
mon rye growing in Shiawassee
County or the State of Michigan
when Rosen Rye is so much superior.
The varieties of oats, barley, beans,
soybeans and corn Registered" by
the Crop Improvement association,
were developed at our own Michigan
Agricultural College, by our own
plant breeders, and in extensive tests
they have proved their superiority
to the strains commonly used. We
do not wish to say there are not other
valuable varieties, because there are;
but as a rule they are not kept pure
and free from disease.
Shiawassee County should produce
as good corn, wheat, oats, rye, barley
or potatoes as can be grown in the
State, and it is our desire to see ex-
hibits from this County at the State
show next winter. AND WE WANT
TO SEE THEM WIN.
A County corn and grain show is
being planned and will be held some
where in the county next fall. Get
ready now. Call up the Farm Bu-
reau office for prices on any of these
Registered" seeds.

COOPERATION.

This word is exactly the opposite
of socialism and paterna1ism. Co
operation does not depend on state
laws and state taxes to support what
it undertakes. 1t recognizes the
necessity of brains, experience and
industry and does not try to get
along without capital. 1t divides
profits in proportion to the service
rendered in producing 1t.

REORGANIZATION.

The way to Americanize is to be-
gin with yourself. Go to work at
some honest job. Save some of
your earnings. Pay for what you
get. Do not unload yourself on
our fellow citizens in some public
job for which you have no prepara-
tion or ability. Be modest and
courteous.
