J. Hill for whom they are building the Deschutes line and Eastern Oregon extensions. The Spokane story comes from an authen tic source, it is understood, but it is senger between those points. The auto owners claim that the machines 1 cannot carry people for less than that amount owing to the heavy expense for repairs.

BEST DRUGS, BEST SERVICE IT'S NOT ALWAYS THE MOST CONVENIENTLY, LO CATED DRUG STORE THAT GIVES YOU THE BEST DRUGS AND SERVICE. WE HAVE A GREAT MANY PATRONS WHO .

TRY US THE NEXT TIME YOU ARE IN NEED OF ANYTHING FROM THE DRUG STORE, AND YOU'LL UN DERSTAND. TELEPHONE ORDERS GIVEN PROMPT ATTENTION AND GOODS DELIVERED TO ANY PART OF THE CITY. BROWN DRUG CO. (Continued from page 1.) shipped in from California, which cost him about one and three-qunr,ters cents, plus freight Inferior obvious ly to the local produce. This choice Instance we will mark "Exhibit B" a desultory, unannounced delivery up on an already stocked market. Now then, here Is the hardest nut to crack of all. By some sort of telepathic (7) understanding (maybe) the retail stores sell an article of green produce at 5c. each for which they uniformly pay 40c. per dozen "In trade" or 30c. cash. Here Is an article In great de mand entailing upon the retailer prac tically no risk, and always sold out the day received or within two days thereafter. Upon a cash basis, this Is one hundred per cent profit to the deuier, who merely distributes the product, whereas, at a producing cost of between 22c. and 23c. the farmer receives about 30 per cent profit gross, with ALL the risk attac'hed to growing, and freight or carriage to come out 'Of that. I could cite many other ' examples of this latter phase of the local produce market, but the above instances will serve to show omo of the drawbacks to agricultural or produce farming hero on Coos Bay. Now, the above is all too sadly familiar to every farmer who plows, harrows, clod-mashes, seeds, cultivates and cultivates and CULTIVATES, digs, picks, packs, freights nnd delivers his produce to the distributors the stores. In the cases of "Exhibits A and B," the farmer has only himself to blame. The merchant Is conducting an or ganized business, whereas the far mer, through lack of organization, enjoys none of the benefits of or ganized business methods. He can not blame the merchant because he, the farmer, Is not a recognized and dependable source of supply. The merchant, already stocked up to the needs of his trade, takes the unor ganized farmers' produco largely as an accommodation or a plain volun tary favor, and Inasmuch as this act overstocks him, he, of course, dis counts the prlco to cover his risk thus entailed. But the last instance cited Is not In this category. That Is an extortion puro and simple. A practice highly pernicious In Its In fluence upon produce fnrmlng. Now for the remedy. Farmers In other sections of the country have organ ized upon a commercial basis, estab lished depots for receipt and distribu tion of their produce, made their lands yield from $125 to $700 per acre per annum according to crop, as against from $15 to $20 per acre that they had been accustomed to realize. The organization of these farmers has in latter years assumed NATIONAL proportions, until on January 1st of this year over seven million farmers had enrolled In the Farmers' Educational and Co-Opera-tlvo Union of America. An organi zation ducatlonal In that It teaches the farmer how to got more out of his lands per acre, and co-operative In that It points tho way to the far mer's joining hands upon a strictly business basis, and becoming, through establishment of their depots, recognized and dependable sources of supply of farm products. A local instance of tho benefits of farmers organization Is tho co-operative creamery.
