tarm products comparatively is and has been the
salvation of the producer An official bulletin has
.ust been issued by the United States Census de-
partment which gives side lights on the value
OF cooperative marketing to counties In review
ing the Census report of the fifty most prosperous
counties in the United States, as published by the
Census, the Progressive Farmer saws:
Were any of the richest farming counties in
California?
! he very first or richest one OF all was one of
the California cooperative marketing counties.
50 was the second richest
The fourth, seventh and eighth richest were
also California cooperative marketing counties
In other words, of the eight richest farmino
counties in America, five were from California;
cooperative marketing counties And of the entire
list OF the fifty richest counties in America. thir
teen from California.
No wonder the California Bankers Association
at ITS recent meeting recognizing how greatly co.
operation had increased the farmers bank demos
its, officially declared through it's agricultural
committee:
cooperative marketing of farm products Of all
kinds is undoubtedly the ideal method. Banks can
well afford to encourage any organization created
Tor this purpose. Any banker who is against COON

HOW JAPAN GREETS new YEAR
Custom of Oriental Countries Is to
Give Special Performances in
the Play Houses.

THE Oriental methods Of greeting
= the New Year differ greatly from
ours. In Japan, as we'll as in other
Oriental countries, special perform
ances are given in the theaters.
!: In the temples and shrines priests
and attendants entertain the people
with special dances. The Kagura, or
Sacred Dance With Music, is the ia.
vorite, for while it is being given
prayers are offered for the continued
happiness Of the nation during the
coming year. This very old dance is
performed by young girls, while the
priests are the musicians. All are in
appropriate costume.
Another ceremonial, which has been
handed down for centuries, is the Shu-
Sal, or Dance of the Ancestral Sane
uary. This is given within the palace
ny the imperial family on January 8,
and it celebrates the founding Of the
imperial house, centuries ago.

We have all been brought up on the
axiom that whatever a woman does
gentleman may retallate only verbal

Changing. At least, there is docu-

according to standards prevailing in
the magazines. a man may retaliate
physically in one particular case. #
bhe bites, that is. She may still, I
suppose, throw plate at him or
threaten him with a pistol, and his
only reply must be sorrowful word
Of reproach. But If she bites he may
hit her. Whether this has become to
any extent a convention in life I do
not know. We will hope that, in life,
ladies who are beautiful as the dawn
and wear clothes to match their beau-
ty, whose lives have been sheltered"
and whose mammas are the mold Of
form, do not bite, even when they are
iritated by their husbands. The ex-
traordinary thing is that they should
be biting in contemporary fiction. In
all Kipling recall only one lady who
bit her husband, and she was a ma

CHANGES IN ARCTIC OCEAN
Seals Said to Be Finding Temperature
Little Too High, and Ice Is
Less Plentiful.

The Arctic ocean is warming up, ice
bergs are growing scarce and in some
places the seals are finding the water
too hot, according to a report to the
Commerce department from Consul
lift at Bergen.
Reports from fishermen, seal hunt
ers and explorers all point to a radical
change in climatic conditions and hith-
erto unheard of temperatures in the
Arctic zone, exploration expeditions re-
porting that scarcely any ice has been
encountered as far north as 81 degrees
20 minutes. Soundings to q depth Of
3,100 meters showed the Gulf stream
still warm.
Great masses of ice have been re.
placed by moraines of earth and
stones, while at many points we'll
known glaciers have disappeared.
Very few seals and no white fish are
being found in the eastern Arctic
while vast shoals of herring and
smelts, which never before have ven.
tured so far north, are being encoun-
