SALES AGENCY SAVES
$4,000 IN 90 DAYS
Farmers Cooperative Firm Marketing
Livestock at Less than Half
E. The Commission Rate Es

Another notwithstanding financial
statement has been issued by the Cen
trail Cooperative Commission associa-
ton. Since January l, it has accum-
ulated profits of more than $4,000
for it's farmer patrons. "
The Central Cooperative Commits
sion association was established on the
South st. Paul market eight months
ago. At the close Of it's first five
months of business, it declared pa
tronage dividend of 25 per cent and
a stock dividend Of eight per cent.
1t paid back to the farmers $19,124.22.
That sum amounted to- $2,349 more
than the total amount paid in By the
farmers for the capital stock of the
cooperative selling agency.
The announcement made today
shows even greater savings for the
first three months Of 1922. !
In January and February, the agen-s
cy showed net surplus of $21, 800.
For March, it's gross profit is $1O,339.
These profits, accumulated to be re-
turned to the patrons of the associa-
ton in dividends, amount to about
60 per cent Of all the money received
by the association in commissions. Iii
other words, the farmers cooperative
mately $3.50 OH every car of stock
it handled in January and February.
1t cost the average private firm
$14.5O a car to handle livestock in
1920, according to figures made public
last week by the National Live Stock
Exchange In January and February
this year, it cost the Central Cooper
alive Commission association $6.8S.
The National Livestock Exchange also
informed the joint congressional COM
mittee investigating agricultural con-
ditions, that the average profit made
by commission men amounted to $1.72
car in 1920. .s
All profits and savings made by the
Central Cooperative association go
back to the farmers in patronage di-
vidends.
In addition to the $4,000 profits for
the first three months of 1922, the
cooperative agency has made an equal

New Appropriate lions
For Ex tension w ork

Several counties make their appro-
.priations for the year beginning Jan.
4 instead OF July 1, as Is customary
in most counties. Itasca county com
missioners have appropriated $1,000
for the year beginning Jan. Il, 1922,
the same as granted the preceding
year. In Carlton county the apprOpri-
alton was increased from $1,000 to
$2,3O0 Ramsey county continues the
same appropriation as granted last
year, $500. In Hennepin county, the
commissioners increased the appropri-
alton from $1,000 to 5000 annually.
In st. Louis county an appropria-
ton Of $14 600 was made. Two agents
are employed, one with headquarters
at Duluth, the other on the range at
Virginia. A home demonstration agent
is employed for the county, and in adj
ditfon an assistant county agent, who
will devote particular attention to the
land clearing project, is being employ
ed this year. 5s 5ss1
Beltrami county has made an APP
preparation for the year beginning
July !, 1922, of $4,000 as against
$1,000 for the preceding year. It is
understood that $1,000 Of this appro-
priation is to be applied to the county
agent work in the southern part OF
the county; that $1,000 is to be used
in cooperation with other agencies in
the employment of land clearing
specialist for part Of the year; $3.50
will be used in the north end Of the
county and $3.50 in the west end, CO.

Radio To, Affect
Life on Farm

4 It is not beyond the range of pos
sibilities that the radio will prove to
be one Of the greatest factors in saw
ing agriculture. The most serious
menace to the country at the present
time is the increasing tendency of
people. to leave the farms and move
to the cities. The social attractions,
the opportunity for enjoying lectures
and music, appeal strongly to a gen
GRAFTON (which thru more liberal edu-
cation has acquired taste for things
that are cultural. IF the radio can
bring the music of the metropolitan
concert hall and the messages from
the metropolitan lecture room to every
farm home, it will largely remove the
incentive for leaving the farm. To
live in the open, away from the con-
fusion of the thickly populated city,
and still enjoy the advantages which
city life confers, would be ideal. And
that is what the radio promises to do
for those who live in rural America.

RURAL ACTIVITIES AND NEWS
OF INTEREST TO THE FARMER

forage is plentiful and making rapid
growth, the amount OF grain per head
may be small, but as dry weather
approaches and feed becomes less
abundant, the grain ration should be
increased. The greatest returns per
acre have been obtained when grain
is fed to the extent Of 2]a to 5 per
cent of the weight OF the hogs. 1t
would seem that q fairly good rule
that could be used as guide, would
be to feed to hogs II turned on pas
ture during May IL pounds Of grain
per head per day.. during June, 2
pounds !; during July, 3 pounds and
during August 4 to pounds. This
method Of feeding will bring the hogs
in the best possible condition to be
finished Tor market during September
and October. .5
III In this section of the state very
little conside rat ton has been given to
the growing Of corn for hogging of.
A few acres of conr grown for this
purpose will be one >of the best pay
ing crops on the farm. Hogs raised
on good pasture that has been supple
mented with grain will be in good
condition to make rapid economical
gains when turned to the corn field

September. The Pearl Flint variety
yields good and is one that without
exception natures in this climate. For
later hogging off, Northwestern Dent
could be used and on the quicker corn
growing soils MINI. No. Is will be
found to produce good results for
hogging off.
In planning the cropping system for
this year more consideration should
be given to the growing Of pasture
crops for hogs and better pasture
crops for other classes of farm ami
mails. Information. on such matters
can be obtained through your county
agent or by writing to the Northwest

COUNTY AGENT WORK GROWS.

County agent work continues to
grow despite occasional differences
emanating in Indifferent or hostile cir
cles that reflections and losses are be-
Ing sustained. Upon inyestigat ion al
most invariably the alleged losses are
found to be over in another county or
IN another state. Inquiry s in the
other county" or the "other state
reveals that conditions are perfectly
normal. there, but that in such and
such state losses, numerically or
otherwise, are reported. IA. .s
How little basis there is for reports
of this character was; shown in a
statement made at recent meeting
Of extension workers at University

sion methods in IL north central
states. Mr.. Gilbertson said there were
800 county agents in these states on
