S0TNHE trouble with the villain OF your
later fiction is that he does not
know that he is villain. On the con-
trary he usually holds himself to be an
estimable and deserving member of So
ciety, and outside of his strictly business
hours of villainy is fervid urger of
reform-for somebody else There was
no compromise about the old type viii
lain. He tried to hide his raseality from
the world, but in his heart of hearts he
chuckled over it, Fieldings Blifil of

appraisement."
"EyEN where the modern novelist
starts out to construct a villain
he usually turns out merely a bad
man. which is something very different.
Our fiction of the West has plenty OF
bad men. There was an excellent
bad man in Owen Wister's The vir-
ginian. and any number of them in the
western stories of Stewart Edward White
and o. Henry and in the sea tales of Jack
London But the Sea Wolf, for example
was not a villain. You may cite Pro-
fessor Moriarty, who has been the evil
genius of all of Conan Doyle's Sherlock
Holmes stories since The Adventure of

Perry H. Crane, state secretary or
the farm bureau, tells the Indianapolis
News that: 1.-The Indianapolis pro-
ducers' offices will be ready for busl-
ness as soon as a board of directors
is elected and offices and sales forces
can be established. We cannot say
inst how soon that will be, but it Will
not be more than three weeks, we be-
lieve," said Mr.. Crane. John U.
Brown, president of the national as
sociation. confirmed this statement to
the News reporter. Mr.. Brown is
doubtless anxious to see the "produc-
ers' non-profit' Office in action, as he
stated several weeks ago, as we
printed at that time, that he expected
to see the Indianapolis sales office
opened by April 1.
We presume that Wayne county
will be represented in this directory,
the county having paid in $4OO last
week on a call from Indianapolis for
funds.
The plan of action provides for con-
siderable machinery, taking the al
fair from national standpoint. AT
best, however, but comparatively few
offices can possibly be established,
because important live stock terminal
markets are few and far between.
The Plan of Action
Let us again quote Mr.. Cranes
statement in the News. So many oil
our readers are vitality interested in
the success of, and in the saving to
be effected to them as shippers, thai
the information given out by Mr.
Crane is most timely. He told the
News reporter that:
1.-THE national plan provides that the
membership in the various terminal
markets shall be made up of shipping
associations and individual members
The membership fee for shipping asso
