Keep your eye on the farm coopera-
tives.
They're ready for recovery. They've
had an important hand in legislation de-
signed to bring it about. And they're all
set to go now that it is coming.
They've come through ten years OF
depression--yes. the farmer has had it for
that time, as compared with three years for
the rest of us--with flying colors. They've
labored nightly in the face of obstacles,
and they've produced results. More far
mers are organized--lnore farmers know
what the cooperative plan is-nore far
mers are enthusiastic about it's possibilities
than ever before.
The groundwork has been done. And
the job now is to build stable structure on
top OF it.
The average farmer has at last learn
ed that incorporation is another word
fer sheriff's sale. He must sell his products
in highly or~nrized distributive channels
The buyer is going to buy at the lowest pos
sibie price-the unorganized farmer takes
what is offered or goes without sale.
fair prices are possible only when the sell
ing and buying groups, meet on equal
grcunds-when the cooperatives face the
middlemen.
Industry's plans for recovery are all
wisely based on cooperation--on enlight-
ened seli-interest And the farmer is in
exactly the same position.

OF all nations, the United States and
Germany are the only ones to continue
building monster dirigibles i'm recent years.
About the only dirigibles to survive for any
considerable length of time are the Los

having been remarkable. How long it
would last in war is question.

find way to build more dependable ones

APPEALS FOR FUNDS TO
FINANCE DIAMONDBALL

The writer of this communica-
ton has been advised by one who
is doing his best to keep the dia-
mondball games going that unless
financial help is secured from
some source that the tri-weekly
games will have to be discon-
tinued.
The collections from the grand
stand and from the spectators
around the park is not sufficient
to cover the small expense of the
games, it is said.
When we consider the fact that
the diamondball games is a source
of amusement to thousands of our
people that cannot afford to pay
for it these hard times, and that
it affords innocent and wholesome
amusement to the young people of
Key West who might be otherwise
engaged, we should do something
about it. The expense of the
games have been cut down to a
minimum-$6.00 per night cover
ing the cost.
The writer knows that the city
government is hard pressed, and
have a hard time meeting their
bills, yet when we consider that
they can maintain and keep up the
golf course, that affords amuse-
ment to less than hundred peo-
pie, that they might see their way
clear to at least furnish the lights
required for lighting the ball
grounds in the city park three
times per week, and add this to
their regular street and park
lighting bill. am advised that
the cost of the lights is only $500
per night.
The person referred to in the
beginning of this communication
said that if the city would pay the
light bill, that the collections
would easily take care of the 9TH
er expenses incidental to the
games. The writer feels conf
dent that our progressive city
council will take care of this mat
ter.
Should the collection from the
games at any time go beyond the
cost, the hard worked ball players
who are willingly donating their
services for the amusement of the
! people, might receive a little to
at least clean and press their uni.
forms.
