County Elevators to
Back Cooperative
Fergus Falls Farmers Pleased With
Grain Grower Firms Sale
Service

Country elevators of Minnesota
are rallying to the support of the U
S. Grain Growers Sales Company OF
Minneapolis, according to T. H. Ha,
gen, manager of the Farm Bureaus
agency on that market. A recent
announcement of the fact that the
company had completed an arrange
ment with the Intermediate Credit
Bank for the financing of country
elevators has given cooperative
grain marketing wonderful impet-
us, Mr.. Hagen says.
Among the country elevators that
are patronizing the farmers concer;
is one owned by growers in the vi.
cinity of Fergus Falls. That ele-
vator has consigned all it's grain to
the U. S. Grain Growers Sales
company and its manager says that
he is more than pleased with prices
and service obtained.
1t is apparent, Mr.. Hagen says,
"that the fate of cooperative grain
marketing on the terminal markets
rests with the farmers who own
country elevators. Grain farmers
who want to expand cooperation
beyond local elevators now have an
excellent opportunity for demanding
of their directors and managers that
their gran be consigned to co-opera-
tive channels at Minneapolis"
Directors of the Minnesota Farm
Bureau Federation, in session last
month passed resolutions requesting
farmers and officers of farmers ele-
vators to get solidly back of the U.
S. Grain Growers Sales Company.
The firm was established a little more
than a year ago with Farm Bureau
funds.

brought out the fact that if the roads
had been permitted rates which would
earn a fair return on the value OF
$4,000, 100000 which Senator Bro
okhart claims the market prices in
dicate the roads are worth, they
would have had very much higher
rates than has been the case. Because
the net earnings that they have had
have fallen $1,25O, 100000 short of
fair return upon the value fixed by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and would be nearly $1,000,000,00O
short of making a fair return even
on the reduced valuation Senator
Brookhart contends for, so it cannot
be said that high values or watered
stock have in any way affected rates.
Mr.. Budd paid tribute to the
loyal railroad employees; he said:
''The greatest asset railroad
company can have today is loyal
and efficient corps of employees, and
the continual agitation for change
in the Transportation Act, which is
advocated by the radical element in
the hope of breaking down the rail-
roads so that Government control will
be forced upon the country, is in
furious to the employees because it
makes for unrest and unhappiness,
and what affects adversely the en-
ployer cannot but help affecting adj
versely the employee as well. He re-
ferred to the enlightened view and
courageous stand taken by Vice-Pres-
ident Doak of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen when in a recent
address in New York Mr.. Doak said:
"Labor's interest in adequate fin
ancial support for the railroads must
be apparent to all. Too often, how
ever, labor is placed in an awkard
position on this subject and frequent
ly misunderstood, in general being
misunderstood and misrepresented
many times both by those within and
without the labor movement. What
could be more important to a work
ing man than to know that his wages
will be promptly and properly paid
when due for services rendered? What
of more interest to him than to know
he is secure in his employment, that
his wages will be fair, his conditions
of employment good and wholesome,
secure in his opportunity to lay away
something for old age for sickness
and assured of good treatment in his
work? Added thereto is the pride
that comes to every loyal employee
in knowing that his employing COM
pany is prosperous. His interests
are subordinate to none.
"Upon the financial stability of the
railroad depends all of these desir-
able conditions. Evade it as you may,
eventually the day of accounting
comes when the finances of the line
will be the determining factor. The
man who believes that the railroad
employees are in any large number
unmindful of the difficulties of rail-
road operation is either misinformed
or fails to understand human nature.
The few railroad employees who are
not interested in the welfare of the
property on which they are employed
should seek other fields of endeavor.
The representative of railroad labor
who seeks to wreck the railroads
financially or otherwise is not re-
preventative of the rank and file of
labor and should be retired"

Blue Valley Bulletin-No. 2
Market Your
Cold Water

There's money in your we'll.
Your cold water has a big market
value, when you use plenty of it to
cool the cream you sell to the Blue
Valley Sweet Cream Creamery in
Sauk Centre.
The special high price Blue Valley
pays for Special Sweet Cream is pret-
ty big pay for your cold water-and
then you can use the same water for
the stock after it has increased the
sales price of your cream.
AS business farmer, can you af-
ford to overlook this opportunity, now
Blue Valley offers you market? If
you had a gold mine on your farm
you would get out the gold. Your
well is little gold mine, and the gold
is to be had for the pumping. Blue
Valley is only the mint that turns
the gold into dollars for you.
The mint always pays full value.
You lose every day you don't work
your mine. Nobody pays you for
that loss. Right now every farmer
needs more money. Don't overlook
the money in your well.
{. c. c.
The three C's stand for all that is
needed to produce Special Sweet
Cream, and you have plenty of all
three right on the farm:
Cold, cleanliness and care.
Use plenty of cold water for cool
ing the cream quickly and keeping it
cold.
Use the same high standard of
cleanliness in washing your separator
and other dairy utensils as your wife
uses in her kitchen, only use brush
where she uses dish rag. Don't
bother about the cream can. Blue
Valley washes it for you.
Use care. Never mix warm and
cold cream. Never leave the cream
in the sun or near stable or any.
where else where bad odors can get
at it. See to it that your separator
skins at least 80 per cent cream,
which gives you more skim milk and
cream that is easier to keep sweet.
And haul your cream often, so it will
never be over 48 hours old when it
leaves your farm. If that means too
much time on the road, club with
your neighbors and take turns haul
ing.
Sell Your Sweet Cream Separately
If you can't get to town often
enough to sell all your cream for the
price of Special Sweet Cream, sell all
you can that way.
Keep the cream from your last four
skimmings before you go to town in
a separate can and perfectly sweet i.
Sell it separately to Blue Valley. The
extra high price for your Special
Sweet Cream will pay the cost of the
trip several times over, and in addi-
ton you will get high price for your
| other cream.
Cash for Your Cream
You get cash for all the cream you
sell to Blue Valley. You know our
price before you sell.
No waiting and wondering what
the price will be. You take no

Official Explains Causes Of
r. R. Transportation Cost
Ralph Budd Tells Professional Mems
Club Why Rates are Higher Than
Before the War

st. Paul, Minn.-In an address be-
fore the Professional Mems Club re-
Gently, Ralph Budd, president of the
Great Northern Railway, discussed
the reasons why railroad rates are
higher than before the war and said
that it should be no mystery to any
one who buys the necessities of life
today because the railroads, like
everyone else, have to pay the going
prices for labor and material they
use to produce transportation, and
that their taxes have increased as
much as those of others. He pointed
out that but for the fact that the
owners of the railroads-those,w who
have invested their money in the pro-
perties-are obtaining very much less
than fair return upon the value of
the properties devoted to transpor-
tation purposes, the rates would have
to be higher than they are now. The
Interstate Commerce Commission ex-
pressed this same idea when in a re-
cent opinion it said:
''The transportation machine of the
country is being used for the benefit
of the shippers and railway en-
ployees, and the owners of the ma
chine are receiving much less for its
use than the law says they are en-
titled to-"
Mr.. Budd said that the present
high rates cannot justly be. charged
against the Transportation Act; that
it is not responsible, and that without
it both railroad rates and costs of
producing transportation would have
been as high as they are now. He

How Long Will Concrete Last

The Iowa Highway Bulletin asks
this question and then answers it by
citing the case of an arch bridge in
the south of France which is over
1000 years old, having been built
in Sc B. C. Concrete was in frequent
use all through the Middle Ages.
Many writer's go into minute details
describing how the "ancients" as they
were called even then, 'laid boards
on edges filled the spaces between
them with cement and all sorts of
large and small stones mingled to-
gether." The state Of preservation
of many examples of ancient concrete
work should be enough to reassure
anyone who has doubts about the
lasting quality of concrete.-Ex.,

Value for the quality of YOUR
cream, regardless of the quality of
all the other cream. The grades.
each one of which has it's own price,
are:
SPECIAL SWEET CREAM
Cream that arrives at the cream
cry perfectly sweet to the taste,
free from all off-fiavors, testing
not less than 80 per cent but
terfat and which is not over 4S
hours old when it leaves the
farm.
NO. 1 CREAM-Cream that
is sweet or slightly sour to the
taste, free from all off-flavors.
NO. 2 CREAM-Cream that
will not grade Special or No. 1,
but is of quality that will
make butter scoring not less
than 80 points.
A Business Proposition
Your investment in land and cows
is the same wherever you sell the
cream. The expense and labor of
feeding and milking is the same.
But the size of your cream checks
depends entirely on the creamery
you sell to. So does the service you
get.
Due to our better equipment, our
great volume of business and our
own direct butter marketing system,
we can always pay you a high price
for either grade. of cream. Com
pare our prices with those paid by
any other creamery system, based on
the same correct weights and tests
and, week in and week out, yea. f.
ter year, you will find our p.lces
higher for the same grade of G. cam.
Our price for Special Sweet Crea IN
is especially high and makes Little
gold mine of the cold water On your
farm. AS business proposition it
should appeal to you as a thrifty bus
mess farmer. 1t means more money
to you and to the community, and
more money for dairy products builds
up the dairy industry faster than
anything else.
Market the cold water on your
farm.
Our number of customers is in
creasing steadily. Join them before
