GAINS MADE IN
DIPHTHERIA WAR
CONTINUED from FiySt Pd0Sl
period last year.
Healthier Year

In general, DR.. JOst reported, the
year has been markedly healthier in
this State, with sharp declines in
most of the major classificatiOns of
disease.
Typhoid fever has dropped 81
cases. Diphtheria is also declining.
The scarlet fever figures are espe-
cially heartening. DR.. JOst said
there were only 2O5 cases up to the
end of November, compared with 468
for the whole of last year.
The record is marred by bad
shOwings in the two remaining ma
jOr diseases, whOOping cough and
measles. Last year. there were only
449 cases of measles, but this year
the total is 1886 to date. This is
due to an unusually bad epidemic
of measles in January and Febru-
ary, DR.. JOst said.
Last year at the end of October
there had been 80 cases of whOOp-
ing cough and five deaths. At the
end of the same period this year
there had been 426 cases reported
and 10 deaths.

How Farm COOperatives
Operate

John Jones is a dairy farmer in a
famous dairy state. All the sur
rounding counties are likewise large
ly occupied by dairy farmers.
For years John Jones has sold his
products for whatever he could get
and his bargaining power was
practically nOn-eXistent.
Finally. John Jones and a number
of other farmers got together. They
formed an organization through
which the pOrducts of all of them
would be sold through one central
office. They put up their money to
get the organization going and to
hire a manager.
The result was vast increase in
bargaining power with buyers-and
faiFer prices.
There, in a few words, is the sim
pei story of how most agricultural
selling cOOperatiyes start and Oper-
ate. There's no mystery about them
they simply represent proven bus
mess principles applied to farming.
