produce to can and there h, where ev.ry cannery ammo,.-
auently falla. Kven in The lalle there Is trouble along th.a line. The
writer Iiopponed to he In The I) a one day this spring when a meelln,
waa held by the. commercial club urging people to produce more or the
'canneries wouVl leave the city. A cannery must have a. number o
articles to can ao that the wasoiis can he dovetailed In a way that will
permit the retention of the large Torre of poo .mploycl. No can
nery can disband il forces between crops and over succeed, hence there
must be aome one head run I he whole scneme and people who would
(patronise the cannery must bo willing to raise the crops neeMed. This
probably Is the weakest link in the whole chain, for , Pie ,. yel will
not take- orders oven though It la lo their Interest, to do so. The spirit
of co-operation is lacking and wllhoill that spirit no cannery can live.
A an example of the lack of co-operation look at the number of pt e
who drive Into the creameries with sinali consignments of ureuin, wh-'n
one good cream route could take care of one entire end of the valley;
look nt the truck peddlers woikiuR,lu each other'a way when one con
cern courr: sni'Ply the distribution ot I.a craude-a needs very well and
save money for every grower; look at the milk wagons that travel ovotr
tlio aaino rerrltory each day when one well organrzen milk distributing
aystum could buy the milk from the produce and sell to the consumer
lit u saying to all. Those things never will come about until people
are willing to co-operalt1 und he under u coinnieri-liil head whose word
Is law.
That fJrando Itonde valley Is fritting away one of her groatesl re
aources by not having organization Mint will raise produce for running
on a Inrgo araio la apparelil to anyone who lias seen oilier sections
of tlio country that follow the canning game.
For Instance, tills Is thu greatest roi n-for-cannliig valley In the
United Slates barring none. Corn stays In the milk longer hero than
ntjy placo else making 11 easy to can and giving time for extensive oper
ations In that line, provided the' (people would produce Corn. That has
never been done. Tho aame Is Hun of cabbage. xNo place raises such
ciihbago as Huinmervllle, not even Oiedey, Colorado, which Is pow a
big cabbage center.
We all know what the soil will do with proper fertilizing for vege
tablea and we nil would like to aeo a cannery of some size, but wc
can't have II unlll wc get organized lo produce atuff tor 1I10 cannery.
If thai can be accomplished along right linear the levelling Observer
does not hesllato In say wo can have a cannery working sixty day
after such assurance has been given.
,Tho labor problem Is of .iseiiience but we helluva that can he
worked out. l.nbor for canning la not high priced, ,lt cannot be,
hut nevertheless it pns a good living wage and there nro plenty of
plenple In Union county that could be Induct d to work In the cannery
provided the produce ran bo raised and guaranteed In sufficient volume.

THE FARMER'S DOLLAR.
Is estimated on the
Cussedrress.
Tho value of farm crops in America for 1112
basis of present prices at J 1 2 ,0i0.t)0 n.0110.
Oilier Industry of America has vital Interest In thla huge sum.
Lumber nianiifacturera look to tho (arm for .16 per cent of their orders,
ateel iiianiiracturern Tor 1(1 per rem, coal miners and gasoline niaim
fneturera for 25.
Farmers buy from 4 0 to no per cent ot the products of- all Amer
ican Industry. No olluV class of ipeeple bu.vs so much. No other class
of property rurntshca a better risk for loans. Two years ago agricul
tural bank loans aggregated J ri.min.UilO.OOii, which Is 10 pi r cent or
our national hanking power.
Hut alt Iiu i;ti conditions are better than for some time, the fanner's
dollar still has 11 putvhni'iug power of only 72 cents. In other words,
the runueY muni exchange a dollar's worth of his own products for 72
rents worth of other producLs. Ilurlug 11121 the purchasing power of
the runner's dollar ranged rroin 112 to 07 cents.
One would think that slllco oilier Industries dupem! entirely tor
their profit juargln on the tanner's ability to huv they would jnltv In
an effort to make his punh.islie; power as lar;;e as possible, Inst
