Lydia absently set Baby Ruthie
down while she stood staring at the
words. Color shot into her cheeks,
light filed her eyes. Alice was wise,
Alice was right. Too much cream! Yes,
that was where the trouble lay. She
had perhaps been little incorporate

more of her.

ran. Baby Ruthie had upset the bowl
OF half-beaten eggs. She was a sight

flushed and angry.

U. S. Again Freed
From Outbreak Of
Hoof, Mouth Ills

The United States is again free
from foot-and-mouth disease and
an official order of the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, effective March
10. removes the quarantine placed
upon the limited affected area in
California. The outbreak was Of
the shortest duration and involved
the smallest number of premises
and animals of any Of the outbreaks
that have occurred. 1t also caused
the least interference with agri-
culture and industry in the sur
rounding territory.
Extensive inspections indicate that
the last cestige of the disease was
destroyed four weeks ago by the
slaughter and burial Of infected
herds and the cleaning and dlsln-
fecting of the premises. But as a
precautionary measure the premises
on which the disease vas found are
being held under veterinary super
vision pending the outcome Of the
customary tests in which numbers
of susceptible livestock are used. AS
a still further safeguard the depart
ment will maintain an adequate
force of trained veterinarians in the
locality to deal promptly with any
recurrence which past experience
has shown to be possible in deal
ing with this treacherouS malady.

COOPERATIVE
BUYING SEEN
Farmers Now Begin to Band
Together For Purchas-
ing Purposes

Agricultural cooperation has come
to be associated in the public mind
with selling operations, but selling is
not the only function undertaken on
a large scale by formers business
associations in the United States.
Many such associations have en-
tered the field of cooperative pur-
chasing of farm supplies, according
to the division Of cooperative a
keting of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
Though cooperative purchasing is
not likely to become so large a fac
tor as cooperative selling in Amer
lean agriculture, it promises never
theless to become extremely import
ant. In 1925, the division of cooper
alive marketing obtained reports
from 10,803 adiSe farmers cooper
alive associations. Nearly half these
associations reported making CO.
operative purchases for their men,
bers. In 1927. farmers associations
comparatively purchased feed, seed,
fertilizers. containers, and other
| supplies valued at more than $780,
600. 900. Two farmers business or
! CARNATIONS in that year each han
died a total cooperative purchasing
business in excess Of $4,000 900, an
other handled approximately $780,
600 Of cooperative purchasing. Half
a dozen or more associations each
cid a cooperative purchasing bust
ness in excess of a million dollars.
Statistical data as to the COM
modities most commonly purchased
have been obtained for 1925. In that
year SO per cent of the reporting
associations bought feeds. At per
cent bought fuel, 80 per cent bought
fertilizers, Is per cent bought build
ing materials. Is per cent bought
fencing, II per cent bought nipple
ments and machinery. 7 per cent
bought hardware, and 30 per cent Of
the associations purchased miscel-
laneouS commodities.
One Of the most recent develop
mentS has been the formation Of
farmers associations handling gas
oline. kerosene, lubricating oil, and
other petroleum products. Many Of
the oil-buying associations have
been extremely successful. Forty
such associations in 1927 made an
average saving Of 1913 per cent Of
sales. according to a study conduct
cd by the University of Minnesota
in cooperation with the division of
cooperative marketing of the de-
partment of agriculture.
