checked up that the hogs sold by
Central brought more than the aver
age of all the commission firms at
that market In four days out of the
fourteen Central was slightly lower
in price but the hogs handled aver
aged quite a bit more in weight.
Besides rendering the farmers and
shippers the best of service their CO.
operative sales agency has in ten
months saved them over $4,000 in
the cost of handling their stock at
the South st. Paul market, all of
which is refunded to the shippers.
Did the local buyer refund to you
any profit he made in marketing your
livestock? Did the Independent COM
mission firm ever refund any of the
profits they made to you or to any
of the farmers? No, they were and
are in business to make as great a
profit possible which means charging
the farmers all the traffic will bear.
All sound cooperative movements
are built from the bottom up, hence
the local cooperative shipping asso-
Citations were organized first and
local cooperative effort was firmly es-
tablished This meant that the local
buyer was first put out of business.
Now the local cooperative associa-
tions are organized into central CO.
operative organization to handle their
business in a collective manner at
the central market, thereby causing
less competition among us as farmer
sellers and stimulating more competi-
ton among those who buy our prod
ucts. In view of these facts, Mr..
Anderson, hasn't the cooperative
marketing of livestock been worth
while?

to clean up 500 or more on a car

where a buyer has made as much as
S25 per head on COWS bought locally

recently a buyer made a net profit of

Why should the farmers product

the market value of the stock.
AS for the competition at the ST..
Paul Stockyards, want to state that
the farmers are getting better service
and better prices at that market than
ever before due in large measure
to the fact that they now have their
own selling agency, The Central Co
operative Commission Association on
that market This association is
owned and controlled by the local CO.
operative shipping associations of
the northwest and is organized to sell
their stock and handle their business
at cost. Since it started last August
it has first of all charged a lower
commission than was and is being
charged by the independent COM
mission firms; it's plan of organiza-
ton allows the farmer to buy his
stockers and feeders direct from the
shipper without a commission, being

Cooperation VS.. Competition in Our
Marketing System

Marketing System
Editor Norris Tribune:
In your issue of week before last
M. Anderson asks for information
concerning the value of cooperative
marketing. 1 am glad to have the
chance of presenting a few facts in
answer to this inquiry.
NJ. Anderson's first question is
"Was it a wise move of organizing
those shipping organizations through
the country?" Yes, it was decidedly
a wise move. A cooperative shipping
association can market livestock at a
smaller expense than can be done by
a stock buyer. The buyer must travel
through the country from farm to
farm in buying this stock, thereby
mourning more expense than is in
Cured by the manager of your truly
cooperative livestock shipping assO-
citation. Naturally the buyer has to
have bigger margin in handling the
stock than is required by your asso-
citation. Not all farmers know the
market value of their livestock so
consequently the buyer can many
times purchase the stock below it's
true value. Who profits in this case?
I know of several instances where
buyers have bought stock locally at
such a figure that it enabled them

My attention has been called to
the fact that story has been cir
culated throughout the County to the
effect that do not like Stanley Ryan

paid his filing fees.
There is absolutely no truth in

toward his filing or campaign ex-

My purpose in publishing this

no truth in the above story and also
to undo the injustice that may have
been done Henry Gaffney through
the circulation of this story.

all fair minded people of this County
to resent this attempt to draw me in
to this Campaign.

conclusion that the American people must

OUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT. =

Daily the Superintendent of Health and the health board go about their work of taking care that healthful conditions prevail in the city and that conditions making for ill health are repaired, with little comment. When notoriety is given to some case where it appears that the health de- partment has been negligent many people know about it imme ediately; complaints are made and things be- come unpleasant for those connected in any way with that branch of the city government.
 News came the other day of an in- vestigation by the Superintendent of Health of the city Dr. Fred Lee, which resulted in the posting as dan gerous" of a spring from which some half dozen New Britain people had been drinking. Sickness had result ed and although the spring is located in West Hartford 1t is due to the ef- forts of Dr. Lee that no more bad ef- fleets will come from that water. New New Britain men working near the spring will be warned, N well as

trafic rules whereupon they are ad-
 dressed with caustic words by the
 guardians of the law
 One way of eliminating this con
 fusion would be to have mounted on
 trafiic signal posts sign requesting
 the man at the wheel when making a
 turn to pass In front of or behind the
 policeman, as the rules may require.
 When no police are on duty the sign
 could be removed and automobilists
 would then be required to follow the standard directions usually in view:
 Keep to the right" Such an ar
 engagement might not be acceptable to all communities; there are conditions peculiar even to some localities but where 1t Is applicable 1t could be in- augurated with benefit to all con- cerned.
 A few weeks ago the Observer call ed attention to the use of rubber as locomotive fuel in the East Indies. Now comes word of another peculiar use to which 1t is being put, as road surface dressing. It is said to give ex- cellent service and to last longer than tar dressing.
 The formula Is secret although 1t Is known that the solution is made from pure bark and scrap rubber, a combination easier to handle than tar.
 In the past the use of rubber for roadways was confined almost exclu- sively to rubber blocks, the cost of which was very high. The cost of the new rubber dressing is likewise very high and 1t Is doubtful whether 1t will be acceptable for general con- mercial use unless means are found for reducing the expense of produc- tion. Supporters of the rubber dress ing say that while the original cost of the product is high. the labor cost for applying 1t is very low
 When we think of a city we get a mental picture of streets, buildings schools, people, trolley cars and a few other things. We do not stop to con- slider the demands of the people on other people throughout every state of the Union, as reflected by the needs of daily living. Congressman Clyde Kelly has written an interesting book called The Community Capital" in which he supplies data on many inter- esting points, not the least of which concerns the food demands of the population and how those demands affect others living thousands of miles away.
 For example a community of 2,5oo population within the city consumes each week 4s,ooO pounds of foodstu.fs and patronizes a weekly retail busi- ness of S7,50o. On the basis of actual yield per acre the cultivated land re. quired to supply a community of D. 500 persons Is 11;560 acres, which, with an additional IS per cent for permanent woodland, would make total of 1S,600 acres. This area would | be divided into 1o5 acres for potatoes, ss5 acres for wheat, SSO acres for rye, barley etc. 2,36o acres for corn, 1890 acres for oats, 1860 acres for nay, 2,560 acres for fruits and small and 2,220 acres for pastur- lge.

THE TURKS

Europe is watching disaster and catastrophe following in the wafe of the victorious Turk. It is but an- other case of the repeating of history. Smyrna is in flames; Christians are dying; the Turks are at the threshold of Constantinople which was never to be theirs again according to the set tlement following the great war.
 Today's news tells of England's de- termination to oppose the entrance of the Turks from Asia Minor into Eur ope. Italy and France join Britain in warning Kemal that until perman- ent settlement is made the neutral zones must be respected. At the same item comes news that Russia. with the prospect of freedom of action in the Black Sea as the prize, is ready to aid Renal Pasha if an advance upon Constantinople is made.
 With the history of the victorious Turks in mind there would be no ques- tion in Europe as to the necessity for stopping his advance were it not for the interests which might be jeopardized if the Turks were oppos- ed and should eventually triumph It would seem that all Europe would rebel at the thought of the Turks again gaining and holding the power that has brought such misery and horror to the world. But politics and 1ho guarding of natlenal interests for
