STOCK CO-OPS
SHOW INCREASE
Two Hundred Thirty.five Groups in
State with 10000 Members Mar.
ket S2S,OOO,OOO Worth.

Increased business done by farmers
livestock cOoperatives in Minnesota
during the 1856 marketing season
was 100000 more than that of the
1934-35 season, according to the Farm
Credit Administration of st. Paul.
This was due chiefly to the higher
levels of livestock prices this year
than during the preceding year.
The 235 associations reporting to
the cooperative division of the Farm
Credit Administration in Washington,
showed that their 10000 members in
this state had marketed approximate
ly $2S,OO0,0OO of livestock coopera-
lively during the period compared
with $20,0O0,OOO for the previous per-
iod. Many of the animals handled
by terminal-market cooperatives came
from points without the state.
More than one-half the farmers
marketing their livestock through CO.
Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri,
and Ohio.
COOperatives Handle Half.
Cooperative sales agencies now
handle half the livestock sold on the
terminal market at South St. Paul.
and cOOperatives throughout the
middle west have been consistently
increasing the percentage of live
stock bought and sold during the last
eight years. In 1928 cooperatives sold
II per cent of all animals sold at
public stockyards, and this has in
creased to 21.S per cent in 1884, the
latest year for which such figures are
now available.
COoperatives have increased their
percentage of animals purchased from
6 per cent in 1923 to 1873 per cent
in 1884.

Mrs. Simpson Goes for Ride and Later
Calls on Friends.
CANNES, December 1S P.-Mrs.
Wallis Warfield Simpson, it was indi-
Gated today. has decided that 1t is
about time for her to 60 and come as
she pleases from the villa where she Is
staying and hopes only that the curious
get tired of staring at her.
She gave evidence OF some such de-
cision last night when she went twice
from the villa of Mr.. and Mrs Herman
L. Rogers.
In the cleaning she took a short
drive through the countryside and later
on played few rubbers of bridge with
friends in Cannes.
Her hosts, however, adopted new tao
tics in their efforts to keep crowds from
following their now world-famous
guest.
A lackey, following the Simpson car,
would swing his machine across the
road thus blocking all pursuit until the
car ahead Of him was lost in a swirl OF
dust.
Many rumors, all without founda-
ton, continued making the rounds of
Cannes.
One was that Mrs. Simpson planned
trip to Egypt, but all outward ap-
pearances led to the belief that she was

She feeds and bathes and adores her
two dogs-a Cairn terrier and a small,
comical Dachshund. She took them
with her from Is Cumberland terrace
to Fort Belyedere, but she was unable
to take them with her to France-a
fact that grieved her sorely.
Her likes and dislikes are pro-
nounced. She hates cats and flying
and sham and Winter sports (although
she has tried them in company with
the ex-King). She likes wood fires
and strong winds and the mot Just"
and arguing and candle light.
1t was showing when she made her
statement in Cannes, offering with
drawal from "a situation grown un-
happy and untenable." But under the
white fakes that covered them, the
mimosa and jasmine blossoms still
bloomed. And across the length and
