Sure enough, the horseman turned
into the road some distance ahead Of

day human relationship, Joseph Pas
sonneau. state director of markets,
addressed the students of the Colora-
do Agricultural college in Ft. Collins
Monday night ON the necessity of
these qualities to the endurance of
the movement.
Mr.. Passonneau pointed out that
the co-operatives must at all times be
able to meet the tests Of cooperation
by counting ON the confidence and
loyalty of members. The support OF
the membership depends wholly on
intelligent administration and the
highest degree OF honesty and integ4
rity on the part of their officials.
"A private concern can sometimes
succeed from financial Standpoint
from standpoint of continued BUSH
ness-even though its officers and di-
rectors are without neal honesty and
social integrity" said Mr.. Passonneau.
That is not true of a cooperative
marketing association. There is no
line of human activity, whether So
cial, political or economic, which de-
mands more honest human relation
ship than does cooperative market
ing Honesty, in its most complete
application, is necessary If coopera-
tive marketing is to endure.
The development of cooperative
marketing should be parafleled by
constant preachment to the thought
of keeping the movement clean I
believe this is more fundamental to
success than any other element which
must enter into it If ever there was
time in the history OF agriculture
when a true unadulterated applica-
tion of Christs teachings were neces-
sary, it is in cooperative marketing"

POWER FOR CONGRESS.

There is not particle of doubt IN
the mind of any thinking person
that the candidate for Congress- in
the Eighth District who should re-
ceive the unanimous support of the
citizens is Victor l.. Power of HlD-
bling. The mere fact of his being
a range man should be paramount to
unanimous support and coupled with
his ability and the general insight
into affairs pertaining to this dis
trict, it shouIu be plain to every
resident, man or woman, that Vic
Power is he man for the place.
The Eighth District is by far the
most imortant in the state with its
varied industries, mining, numbering
and farming. This district pays in
to the funds of the state and nation
immense sums of money yearly and
according to population several
times as much as any other district
in the state A district of this kind
needs a man of Mr.. Powers vitality
and judgment to represent it in Con-
gress.
1t is unnecessary to go into details
regarding matters of Importance
with which he has been connected
and the interest shown by him for
the people of the iron ranges and
the state in general, but we will say
that with "Vic" Power in Congress
this district will be heard from and
receive its just dues at the hands
of the balance of the country. He
is well known throughout the length
and breadth of the land. His word
with colleagues will be of weight

Canada business men seem to be
getting worried over their country's
burden of public debt. That is q
fair inference from a circular issued
by the Council of the Montreal
Board of Trade and addressed to
citizens generally. After asserting
that the present per capita debt OF
the Dominion is 1912, the circular
continues:
"Part of every dollar you spend
goes to pay interest on the public
debt, and the bigger the debt grows
the more of your money it will take
away from you.
"These large debts are the result
of years of public spending beyond
our means and borrowing money tc
do it. We could not help that dur.
ing the war, but the war was ended
more than five years ago and we
are still doing it.
"The governments and the mum
icipal councils do the borrowing anc
the spending, and often get poor
value for the money, but the people
do the paying back, and you will
have to do your share.
Sooner or later this reckless Dor
rowing and spending must end, anc
the sooner the better, but only the
elector can stop it.
IF you want your public affair:
managed as sensible men handle
their private affairs, getting gooc
value for what they spend and do
without things they cannot afford
if you want the cost of living t.
come down, so that you will have
for yourself more of what you earn
the remedy is in your hands. Al
Decentralization, Provincial and
Munlclpal-see to it that the men
you vote for understand what YOU
want and make sure that they will
support the policy of reducing the
public debt"
What is wrong with this warning
for the average American city,
county and state?

apparently that the danger is In the
arlver rather than in the crossing, Oh
chat the pubhc's share of the ex-
pense of such grade changes WOULD
be large and burdensome at best.
Carefully computed cost of chang
ing a grade crossing shows it to be
from S6O,O00 to $8O,U00 and in
some instances as much as $500, 00U
or 100000, contingent upon the
location and surroundings. In APP
portioning this cost it is customary
tor the railroad and the public to
bear the expense jointly.
There are 256,O00 grade crossings
in the United States which to change
at 100000 each would entail an ex-
pense of $15,S6O,OOO,OOO
Isn't this pretty heavy burden
to impose on the public? For what
the railroads pay directly must be
repaid to the railroads by the pub

A law compelling vehicles to stop
at railroad crossings would be no
expense to taxpayers, and fines for
disobedience would enrich the pub
lie treasury.

Highway construction is not keep
ing pace with motor vehicle produc
ton, says the Kentucky Road Build
er. The automobile has outgrowr
the road.
While motor vehicle registration
has increased $500 per cent in
twelve years, as shown by the
actual figures, expenditures for high
way construction have increased
only little over 500 per cent.
The situation is causing much
concern not only to manufacturers
of motor vehicles, but to public Off
Gals and commercial organizations
who fear that unless more improved
roads are provided the highways will
become far more seriously congest-
ed, impeding traffic and making
travel more dangerous. Now from
500 to 1000 machines pass over a
road that formerly Accommodated only
fifty in a days time. Road rev.
enues in one state ten years ago
averaged 1852 per vehicle Today
they average SIS per vehicle.
The motor vehicle is no longer
looked upon as a luxury or as a
mere pleasure car, it has become a
necessity. The pleasure that a
farmer gets from his automobile is
very small in comparison with the
service it renders him in his bust
ness. More than 80 per cent of
the cars in this country, about one
third of the total number of cars,
are owned by farmers and persons
living in the country Or towns of
fewer than 1000 inhabitants.
Approximately 100000 auto
mobiles and motor trucks were made
last year, adds the highway trans
portation journal, and a very large
per cent of this production was Of
the types usually purchased by
farmers.

And now comes an official of the
Beauty Trade Association with the
statement that if women persist in
bobbing their hair for several gen
erations, they will grow boards,
since if hair is not permitted to
grow on the head, it will grow on

alarm need be felt. Nature is not
