The big obvious need Of this couh-

position to go ahead. We have
here a vast ability to produce, and
a vast ability to consume the
products Of industry. Potentially,
Supply and Demand are pretty
well matched. The main trouble
is that people don't demand
enough things to justify industry
in doing its utmost to produce.
The result Is that a great
amount of energy Is being spent
on trying to get a lions share Of
the existing demand, and not
enough is spent on trying to ere
ate the demand so there will be
enough to keep everybody busy
supplying it.
This brings about a period Of
keen competition. It means that
everybody must work harder and
accept less in order to overcome
the sales resistance of a curtailed
demand.
Demand is largely a created
thing. The actual needs of hui

After using it for that pur- pose the thief returned the horse and harness to the barn and left the buggy a short distance down the road.

DAIRYMEN SAVE
BUTTER MARKET .
FROM MONOPOLY
Farmers Themselves Can Set Price
Of Butterfat, Says Creameries
Association.

(By A. J. Mcguire, Manager
Minnesota Cooperative Creameries
Association
There is no other farm product in
Minnesota whose price the farmers
can influence as much as they can
influence the price of cream and but
terfat.
The price of butterfat is the only
price on farm products that has not
fallen below the cost of production
during the past two years.
This is largely due to the fact that
there are 900 cooperative creameries
in Minnesota that have been a
mighty factor in influencing the
price of butter, and the price paid to
the farmer for cream
The cooperative creameries have
not only given the farmers the manu-
facturer's profits, but prevented a
monopoly of the butter market.
Every farmer should know the i'm
portance of the cooperative cream
cry to his business. The farmers who
take their cream to cream stations
do not realize they are helping to
undermine the best market the farm
ers of the state have ever had. Farm
ers in Minnesota have received an
average of 10 cents a pound more for
their butterfat during the past sew
eral years than farmers have re-
ceived in states that lack cooperative
creameries.
While cooperative creameries are
not all first class by any means, they
can be made first class. They are the
one market that the farmer can con-
troll at the present moment if he will.
The first thing that must be done is
! to get the creamery all the cream
| that is produced in the community.
1t is a shame to a farming communi-
ty to have cream stations in the
same town with a farmers co-opera-
tive creamery. The second thing to
be done is to have the cream deliv-
cred to the creamery in such a con-
butter.
= Cream is often spoiled through age
and improper care before it leaves
the farm. Cream should be cooled
in cold water Immediately after it
is separated and kept cool until
j delivered. Every farmer should
have cream cooling tank. The well
! water can be made to cool the cream
on the way to the stock tank. Cream
! should be delivered to the creamery
while it is sufficiently sweet to use on
the table when there is company fol
Sunday dinner. In the most success.
full creameries, the farmers cooper
ate in handling the cream, and get
all the cream to the creamery while
it is still fresh and sweet.

class cooperative creamery is gooC

IN STEP WITH PROGRESS
Lee Brothers Going in for Hogs and
Chickens.

Seven pure bred Duroc Jersey sows
have raised 81 pigs this spring on
the farm of G. E and H. c. Lee, one
and one-half miles northeast of Nor
ris, an average of nine and four-sev-
enths to the litter. G. E. Lee, who
is specializing in hogs, figures that
with better Accommodations he could
have brought more of the go through
the uncertain period of their lives.
While the Duroc Jerseys form an
important part of the livestock on
the 22O of the Lee brothers, H. c.
Lee, who until this winter was en-
ployed at the Morris Auto company,
has what may be called a very inter
esting flock of 125 pure bred An
coma chickens that will give the hogs
a good run for first place on the farm.
G. E. is interested in hogs princi-
palIy while H. C. is kept busy with
gathering eggs, tending to some 900
spring chicks and two incubators
that are constantly in operation be-
sides trying to keep up to his orders
for settings. At present he is selling
80 eggs per day for matching pur-
poses. G.. E. also takes care of the
other farm work when not chOring
around with his hogs.
G.. E. has been raising pure bred
Duroc Jerseys for the past four years
but not until the past year has he
felt that he was making marked
Roadway following the purchase of
a fine SOW from Emil Mecklenburg
a year ago last winter and also a SOW
from L. Reihsen of Benson last win
ter, the animal being out of the boar
that was Grand Champion at the
Minnesota State fair in 1920 and
bred to the 1921 champion Last fall
he got boar from Reihsen, broth
er to Reihsen's herd boar, which has
proven an asset to his herd. This
summer he plans to build fine hog
house and next fall expects to hold
a boar and gilt sale at which will be
offered some choice animals.
H. C. Lee, for the past few weeks,
has been one of the businest men in
the county with his hatchings, his
spring chicks and his layers. During
the winter the laying abilities of his
pure breds ran between so and 80
per cent and these days they are do
ing better than 80 per cent, but not
enough to keep his orders for set
tings. However, he soon figures on
getting caught up and after that will
proceed to the business of raising
some 500 hens for next winter. With
the recent completion of two more
chick houses he can now handle some
1900 chicks and does not expect to
waste any space during the coming
months. From a recent setting of
$50 eggs he now has 312 chicks
scratching for themselves.
