THE MACHINERY OF
COOPERATION
By BRUCE LAMPsON

STANDARD Wheat Co." They would
perhaps sell their grain little lower
than the organized farmers, because
they would have to. But these out.
side men wouldn't bother the others
very much as long as the organiza-
tion controlled most Of the wheat. The
man with control of supply is the one
who controls price.
The mills would look with favor on
this imaginary STANDARD Wheat Co."
They would realize that when tn e
price of wheat was set, it would stay
set'sfor a year. The mills wouldn't
have to load up on wheat long time
in advance. Neither would the indi-
vidual stockholder in the wheat com.
pany have to worry about the mar
kets. He would know that whatever
the company was able to get for the
year would be the rate he also would
get.
That is the machinery of big bust
ness. That is the machinery of CO.
operative marketing. Each cooperat-
i've marketing organization is organ
izing along just these lines, and ev-
cry member is stakeholder" Ulti-
mately every farm product in the
United States will be marketed ac-
cording to the plan of this imaginary
Standard Wheat Co."
The basis of the cooperative plan
is absolute control of farm commodi-
ties by the farmer. He doesn't pass
his products along for someone else to
profit. He controls them until they
reach the consumer. He doesn't ask
someone else to take care of his grain
for six or seven months. He himself
takes care of it until the consumer
wants it. He simply is beginning to
use the machinery of big business.

SEDGWICK
FAIRHABIG
SUCCESS
Splendid Display of Ex-
hibits And Much En-
tertainment at Sedg-
wick's First Annual
Community Fair

The people of Sedgwick and COM
munity did things cup brown" on last
Friday, when they staged Communi-
ty Fair at Sedgwick. A splendid dis
play of exhibits greeted the eye in Wis
iting the Odd Fellow hall, where ex-
hibits of various kinds had been ar
tisticly assembled. These exhibits
were unusually good, and great cred
it is due to the people of the Sedgwick
community in the enterprise shown
along this line. These exhibits are
being shown at the Sedgwick County
Fair here this week. q
A splendid program consisting OF
various street sports, music by the
Crock Concert Band. base ball game
between the Crook and Sedgwick
teams, etc. entertained the large crowd
during the day. An added attraction
was an aeroplane which visited Sedg-
wick Friday Afternoon. The ball game
resulted IN victory for esds~sei., the
score being Z to O. In the evening
dance was held at the Davis hall, mu-
sic being furnished by the Crook or
chestra.
The citizens of Sedgwick and com.
munity are to be highly complimented
upon the staging of their first Com
munity Fair, which was big success
in every way and showed the result OF
q lot of hard work upon the part OF
the committee in charge. 1t is plan.
ned to make the Community Fair at
Sedgwick an annual event.

Most people agree with the princi-
Piles behind cooperative marketing, and
the majority seem to approve Of the
general plan under which the coopera-
tive marketing agencies are designed
to operate.
But like the old Dutchman who
"didnt see how the sardines could
swim into their can so systematic y
there are a good many who don't see
how the thing will work out. They
agree with the plan but they say they
are doubtful about the machinery OF
operation.
AS matter of fact, the plan under
which the Colorado Wheat Growers
association and other similar organiza-
tions operate is identical with the
plan used by practically every other
big business in the country. To il
lustrate this, suppose that the big oil
companies traded off their oil wells
for wheat fields, and suddenly went
into the business of selling grain.
The first thing that this. STANDARD
Wheat Co." would insist on would be
profit. The managers would insist
on it and the stockholders would in
sist on it. The directors would get to-
gether and figure out what it costs to
raise the wheat, together with the
handling charges. To this figure they
would add an amount to take care OF
interest on the farm lands and ma
chinery, and the total plus profit,
would be the price they would set for
the selling of their wheat.
In order to get this price they had
set for wheat, they would take two
or three precautions. They would see
to it that none of the individual stock
holders in the company sold any Of the
wheat at lower figure than the one
set by the directors. In other words,
they wouldn't allow any one of their
crowd to compete against the rest.
Then the directors of this "Stand-
ard Wheat Co." would regulate the
amount of wheat they sold each month
of the year to the amount that the
mills wanted. They wouldn't try to
sell all of their grain in two months
or three months. The directors, if
| they were sensible men, would real
ize that if they made someone else
take care of the surplus wheat until
the mills could use it, these people
who held over the wheat for them
would charge a profit. And the di-
rectors, if they were sensible men,
would want this profit for their own
stockholders instead of for someone
else.
OF course there would be outside
sellers who would be bucking tn

CORN CROP IS
THE LARGEST
IN HISTORY

1t is undisputed that Sedgwick
county now has the prospect of the
biggest yield Of corn in the history of
the county. Farmers readily agree
that corn generally throughout Sedg-
wick county was never in better con-
dition than it is today. A big corn
crop will do much to neutralize the
wheat situation. However, all other
crops, such as oats, barley, rye, hay
and alfalfa, have made excellent yields
in this section this year. The wheat
acreage being SO large, the reduced
yield. caused by the black rust, was
keenly felt. The harvest of Sedgwick
county's large sugar beet crop COM
menced this week, the various beet
dumps having opened Monday ready
to receive the bects. There IS large
acreage of beets in the county this
year, and all indications point toward
big yields, which will be very crafty
ing to the beet growers in the val
ley.

Good Friday.

The vicar of Blackburn, England,
protested in the Local press against a
Good Friday football match between
the tAyn's leading team and Glasgow,
saying the day should not he used for
amusement. But perversely enough
practically all over Europe Good Fri
day is regarded as a day for holiday
merriment. In Rome shops arN gen.
orally open all day. Monaco is cele-
brated for its Good Friday mystery
play. Of recent years in England the
day has been marked by great outdoor
religious professions. During the last
year of the war, when the Germans
were breaking our Fifth army, all the
Protestant bodies united in a Good Fri
day outdoor procession and service. It
was directed by the bishop of London,
who yielded the principal place to the
Salvation army.-London Mail.

The Poet in the Child.

Nothing is eve so beautiful as the
things which were beautiful when we
were small. We had newly come upon
the world. Every object Interested us
and left a deep impression upon our
minds. Every day new objects now
grown common to us, dawned upon our
consciousness; the edge Of u enjoy
ment OF the visible had not been
dulled by usage, and there was no
whispering crowd ct solicitudes 20 in
terrupt the bright continuity 1t our
day dreams. The bluest skies and the
most silvery stars we know were seen
by us not this year, but many years
ago; brooks and shrubs and insects,
We saw them all magnified and in iso-
lation; every sense was its language.
That keenness of observation, that
freedom Of imaginative adventure, as
well as that leisure a grown medita-
tive man must envy, and no man more
than a poet. The complementary truth
is that most poets deliberately draw
very largely upon their memories Of
childhood for the material of their
verse;. c. Squire. In Books Re

RESCUE'S RECEIPTS
USED FOR SALARIES

Changing the management of the
Rescue-Eula mine at Tonopah brought
forth a revelation that is disturb
ing to the stockholders. The new
president, Samuel Shannon, has made
a report to them setting forth that
with net earnings of $~47,6f6.95 for
the year ending June 1, the old man
agement ran the property at a loss OF
$15,92S.iS, and left on hand only
$500 after the debts were paid.
Mr.. Shannon says the money was
used for alariees to superfluous Of
ficials, and this he will stop forth
with. He has cut off $572.50 n
month in salaries in the Tonopah Of
flee and 800 additional in the San
Francisco Office.
The mine has been worked to a
depth of HOG feet and all the ore
extracted and turned into money, ac-
cording to a statement of Mr.. Shan
non in the Tonopah Times. He sug-
gests now that deeper workings be
reached through either the Buckeye
or Belmont shafts, or both, each of
them being dowG 1900 feet. The
Buckeye shaft is only sixty feet from
the northeast corner of the Eula
claim, and Letson Ballet, of the
Buckeye, has made him a generous
offer for the use of this shaft. He
hopes to make a favorable arrange
ment with the Belmont on similar
lines.
On account of the ore being ex-
hausted and development of more
being imperative an assessment of 9
cents a share has been levied.

PROPERTY ESCAPES TAX
NEVADA GOVERNOR

In reply to appeals for a horizontal
reduction of 5 per cent on state taxes
Governor Scrugham has advised its
proponents that until all property
and interests pay their just share of
taxes he will oppose a reduction. He
further advises the public economy
league, which is urging the reduc-
ton, that no more money will be ex-
pended than provided by the budget.
Mr.. Scrugham is convinced that a
great deal Of property in Nevada is
not paying what it should Pay, that
some is escaping and evading taxa
lion, and other is valued far too low.
He is understood to have some def
mite ideas on the subject. which tends
to a suspicion that he is in harmony
with the legislation that was pro-
posed last winter for the purpose of
fe%rreting out such property. The gov
ernor says he wants lower taxes, but
wants them equaqlized.
A full investigation of this subject
is to be made if the governor has his
way He reminds the league that the
| state tax commission and board of
equalization have the power to inyes-
tigate and he will put the wheels in
motion. The commission cannot
change the levy, which was fixed by
the legislature, but it can alter the
valuation, which he says it will 10

GIRL IS BURNED TO
DEATH At MIDAS

Fatally burned in a fire caused by
pocring kerosene on live Goals, Miss
Vivian Cozart, aged thirteen, died in
agony Tuesday night at Midas, in the
Gold Circle district. E.. Prebstol, in
the same fire, was seriously burned,
but is alive. News of tie tragedy has
reached here through the Humboldt
Star.
The girl was building a fire in a
cook stove about 8 o'clock in the aft
ernoon, and to hasten the blaze she
poured the liquid on Goals that had
been left by the noon fire. An ex-
plosion followed and she threw n
quilt over the stove, but her dress
caught fire and she tried to wrap
herself in a blanket. This failed and
she opened a door, running into an
other room. This famed the flame.
Prebstol's clothing caught as he was
trying to rescue the girl, meanwhile
she ran outside and rolled in the
sand.
The girl arrived a few weels ago
from Los Angeles, coming to her
father, Wylie Cozart, who is employ
ed at the Red Hill-Florence mine as
a blacksmith. Her mother died a
few weeks ago.

RANGE CATTLE NOW
ROLLING IN TALLOW

Range cattle throughout eastern
Nevada are rolling in tat, and proba-
bly, in years never looked better at
this time OF the season. They may
be seer by the roadsides in the va
rious highways leading out of Ely.
Their excellent condition is due to
the unusual amount of grass that has
grown this year. The heavy snow
of the late winter, together with
much rain that followed in its wake,
also the rains that have come in
July and August, have conspired to-
gether to help cattle put on this
abundance of tallow.
Sheep are in like condition, espe-
cially lambs which are soon to GO
TO market in a better average shape
than during the past several years.
This region is more of a winter than
summer range for sheep. The Utah
and Idaho sheep that winter herea.
bouts are on their summer ranges in
Idaho, Wyoming and northeastern
Utah, where they have been since
June. Private letters received from
the Wyoming and northeastern Utah
country by the White Pine News say
both sheep and lambs are doing
nicely.

One of the rarest engraved portraits
Of Queen Elizabeth has just been &C.
CURED by the trustees of the British
museum. This is the portrait by Will
liam Rogers, the earliest native
portrait engraver, bearing the title,
ARosa Electa." Till recently only one
Impression of this engraving was
known to exist, in the Sunderland col
lection In the Bodleian library at Ok
ford. The second, now in the British
museum, is derived from the Salt
library at Stafford, which possessed a
collection of engraved portraits, now
dispersed by order Of the trustees Of
that library. The British museum now
possesses all three portraits Of Queen
Elizabeth engraved by Rogers.
