DAUT I'AMTAL J0CBSAL, gAltg, OREGON, MflyPAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1912. FAGS TE2E8 . r. , COOPERATION, AMD Hon. WIHett M. Hays, Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, Says That it Is Necessary for Both Producers and Consumers to Co-Operate "Eminent Examples of Successful Co-Operatlon at Home and Abroad. Tnaavfllt.

He declared that "the Introduction of Effective agricultural cooperation throughout the United States Is of the first importance, and that it would dace the farmers on a level with the organized Interests with which they do business." The whole world is anxiously study ing the problems presented by the present high cost of living. Political Issues have arisen In many countries because of the universal high nrlces for the necessities of life. The ' greatest political and social economists In the world have been giving earnest thought to the solution of these grave problems. In the business and financial world, the situation has caused real appre hension. Note what one of the most conservative editors in Wall Street says of It: High Frlces and Unrest The high cost of living 1b creating great unrest In many countries. Con ditions are becoming especially grave In Germany, AuBf-la-Hungary and France. German officials ara becom ing very anxious for the coming win ter, and especially for the election of the new reichstag which will occur In January. Judging from the by-elec tions recently held, the socialists and radicals will carry everything before them. A wireless message to the New York Times of October 29, says that a vast portion of the Population of Germany Is hungry and that food, already sell ing at unheard of prices. Is growing more and more difficult to obtain. Mass meetings are held to ask for the repeal of duties on food stuffs. Mu nicipalities are establishing fish de pots and railroads are remitting apart ot their rates on food stuffs. In some Instances, companies and large firms, and even the government Itself, have met the Increased requirement of liv ing granting their employes bonuses In the shape of half a month's extra salary. Similar conditions exist In most oth er countries of Europe as well as in our own country. Because of the drought of last summer, that prevailed in this and most European countries, there is a great shortage of vegetable and forage crops and food stuffs are higher than ever before and are ex pected to advance much before next spring. ' It has become evident that there Is a great disparity between the prices re ceived by the producers and those paid by consumers .This means that there are too "many middle-men" too many grocers, butchers, druggists, etc. Too many live In cities and are living with out returning full value to society. The high, cost of living is likely to hasten the evolutionary change In the distribution of products that, appar ently, has been long delayed We ee no change of Improved -Industrial conditions until the prices of foods decline. Co-operation Is the Remedy. High authorities, from President Taft down, have said that to make the cost of living less burdensome the consumer and producer must be brought closer together. Elimination of the middlemen and co-operation among both producers and consumers have been suggested m ways to the end of economical liv ing. In England, the consumers have handed together In great co-operatlive organizations which procure supplies In large quantities, manufacturing nany of them, and retail them to members of the organizations at re duced cost, declaring dividends from the Profits to the stockholders or members. In both Europe and Ameri ca, there are co-operative organiza tions among the producers to secure je more economical marketing of their produce. The assistant secretary of agricul ture, Hon. Wlllett M. Hays, Is an en thusiastic believer in co-operation 1 i 1 V -4 I'.f THE COST OF LIVING among the farmers. With other classes Of Citizens he is tint an mimh , , iuu ,.uui:eiuea He believes in co-operation not onlv laiuiBiu, nut netween the luriuers ana me government. Ho has been worklne and taikw via Lino tlUV for years, and he explained his ideas mme ireoiy, me other day, to the cor- ieBi)uuuen oi mis paper. "The government;1 said Mr. Hays is the biggest cn-nwmHv ' tlon there Is, or that ever was It Is beginning now to lesser units like the state, county and niuuui uiBincc, in oraer to do for the people what they cannot do alono and unaided. "Still further down In iha scale, or in the 'body politic,' Is a se ries of volunteer co-operative units self-formed for thn pllng with the problems of production ana aisiriuution; co-operative cream eries, cheese factories ntnPAa Anapa fa1 by farmers' organizations, and so on. we nave co-operative law in busi ness Jurisprudence which has erown ud around the entttnir-Watho.. business firms, but we have little such jurisprudence. We need a set of laws around co-operation, instead of deci sions. Let the State Help. "The farmer. a!on And llnolrlod " va- sumed the assistant secretary, "cannot sustain himself in competition with an organized business. How can he meet such organized business? Take a creamery In MlnnPHntu nr wi for instance. Let us say that 100 farm ers nave each a 110,000 farm Plant. They build a $10,000 creamery and each one takes a 1100 Interest In it They have combined resources of 11.- 000,000, and they invest 1 per cent of It in business.

"What is the remedy? Let the state help sustain those creameries by giv Ine Instruction In the nrr nf hnrtnr. making and in business management. It has already done so to some extent. In Minnesota the state dairy commis sion will test a sample of butter monthly, and tell the creamery sub mitting It whether It Is fnllnwlntr thA best methods In making butter. Then the government also sends Inspectors around to the creameries and they re port on conditions and give advice." Successful Farmers' Societies. Some of the most marvelous exam ples of co-operation are to be found In the credit societies among the poorer farmers of Europe. A group of the small farmers will pool their credit; that. Is. thnv nlen nn unlimited nntA tn a bank, each Pledging all of his prop erty to tne payment ot tne note, up to the amount of this note the bank will loan money at a low rate of Inter est. When any member of the credit association wants money, he applies to the officers of the association. They appoint two or three members from among his neighbors, as a committee, which arranges with him for a given sum to be loaned not to live on but to be Invested In a productive project. This committee Is charged with keep ing watch of the borrower. If the nrnlott la nnt lwtlno pnrrlari nn nrniwir. ly, the committee is expected to report to me association ouicers, ana pay ment Is demanded of the borrower.

Stone, Salem, Ore, THE RED ROSE AT THE GRID WEOBESDAY JOHV C. FISHER, MANAGER OF "THE RED ROSE", CLAIMS MUCH FOR "MERRY, MERRY." Young girls, pretty girls, girls who can slug and dance, are to play a big part in John C. Fisher's production, "The Red Rose," which comes to the Grand Opera House. Wednesday. February 7, 1912. The chorus has been chosen from more than three hundred applicants, a fact which disproves the oft-repeated statement that there is a dearth of chorus girls. In "The Red Rose" the chor us will play an active part rather than a pictorial background against which is usually painted the slender action of a musical piece. An en deavor has been made to obtain young women with pretty faces, graceful figures, good voices and nimble limbs and at the same time to select those who would best fit the types Intended by the authors of the story. The result Is said to be satisfactory ln the extreme, and when the production comes here it will be found to obtain brand new! faces and a collection of youthful femininity which has not lost its playful enthusiasm. The chorus has been trained by R. H. Burnside, the famous stage director of the New York Hippodrome, Robert Hood Bow- era, the composer, and Jack Mason. The sale opens o Women Avoid Operations. Going through the hospitals in our large cities, one is surprised to find such a large portion of the inmates women, and still further surprised to find that so many of the women are there to undergo operations for fe male Ills. Before submitting to a surgical op eration which may mean death or a lifetime of impaired usefulness, every woman should try Lydla E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, as many grateful letters have been re ceived by the Lydla E. Plnkham Med icine Co., of Lynn, Mass., from wo men who have been restored to health after having been told that a surgical operation was their only chance of recovery. GRAND OPERA HOUSE John C.
