There is being launched a Fanners' Finance Corporation, which is to have a capitalization of $100,000,0(10, slid a potential effectiveness of something like $1,000,000,000, and whose object3 ate described as follows: ."Elimination ot speculation in grain. ."Stabilization of grain prices, with equal benefit to formers and consumeis. , . "Increased acreage, with consequent greater production. .' "Abolition of unnecessary costs by direct shipments and elim ination of middlemen's profits." There is already in existence an organization called the United Slates Grain Growers, with which the new association will co-operate, and which will organize a special subsidiary company to handle grain exports. . ; Somo of the farmers are going to have a great system of grain elevators to store and hold grain as they find it advisable and their own agents to market grain at home and abroad. If the plan works well, they expect to branch out and handle other Important agricultural products the same way. , 'i' Organization and co-operation that's the big idea. The Is to be a sort of fanners' trust. American fanners have come to It late, but taught by sad experience they may now proceed to make up for lost time. There is no reason why they should not manage their own industry systematically, with a view to the rood of the whole, as many manufacturing industries are man aged, if the human difficulties are once removed. If fanners re able to work together, they can accomplish almost anything. All this may seem to point to monoply. If the food-produc in ever gain power to control output and prices as effectually its the steel-prdueers and meat-producers can, they will have to be subjected to similar regulation. In the meantime, their, tendency toward unity and mutual helpfulness is an indication of hole some progress. THE SPIRIT OF A DEAD DOG . doff to which he h MffS. "And hat' the' Camilla Flammarlon, the French astronomer, ia excited over aome new discoveries he has made in the realm of psychic phenomena., lie has hit upon such momentous facts, he nay, that he hesitates to reveal them, lie haa been getting messages from the 1 "other world,'' which la a rather com mon thing nowadays, if psychic in quirer : ere to be credited. , Quite out of trie tbintnlwn hdWevdi. is Fliimrilur- ,otV assertion Unit he had been1 in ijtibtntminicution with "the spirit of a ' bead dog." j The precise nature of the eom I Munication is not given, iilthnugh ' VIAmmurln vttlujnu IVtut It ux.u hud been, kind In log "trt-tiiifeated itself a few monfhs after death, in dicating that he was happy in his new-found state." Possibly this means that r'laminarion hud a vivid dream in which he saw, or .thought tie Haw, the dog wagging his (nil Possibly it means more tliiui that, but the world reserves the right to doubt. Sotting forth his theory of spirit communication, Htmimarum says: "Biu-h of us possess a fluid forte which 1 call 'psychic', whoso power i yet unknown. It is capable of leaving the body anil producing the phenomr na so often observed by Sir Aithi Conan Doyle, lh llyslop, Sir Oliver ldg. Sir William Crookea anil other masters of science. "This force is able to movo mat ter at a distance and, under certain influences, can be made tu traverse many hundreds of miles. It also, per mits one to rend absolutely into the future and pierce the veil lieyund life to see am) converse with men wnd animals that have died." There Is some such "fluid force,' no doubt. Psychic experiments every, where Indicate it. Dut It is oot neces sarily the kind of force that Flam marion seems to .iinugine, nnr pos sessed of such powers as he believe. There are psychologists and occultists too much attention to their revela tion nor to imitate their experiments with the unknown. It is a realm where even the brightest mind ia apt to be misled and beguiled into folly or danger. . Over in England some of them are feeling justifiably cockey because they beat the Americans at playing golf. Good enough! We are glad they have found something at which they'1 ran beat Americans, even if it is noth ing more exciting ithan golf, It would never tlo for us to excel our Knglish cousins in everything, lt would be ungenerous of us, and very disconcerting to thorn'. , Some dny we may .tire of doing the useful" thing's tif life of progressing ill the sciences, and in industry, and in agriculture, and education, and in accumulating the wealth of the world.
