"The latest report on average miles per freight car per day shows that in March we secured an aver age of 40 miles Der day, and in Ap ril an average of 42.4 miles per ilay, as coniDured with thp Amer ican equivalent of 73,700 additional ' car ciays in April, or an average cf 2,457 cars per day- I "The average car load in March was z.h tons, in April 28.1 tons and May 28.0 tons.

Practically the entile business and financial world of Portland is backing it, says the Oregon Journal. The movement is more like one of the old war diivcs than any thing that has happened since the aimistice. Representatives of i more millions of dollars sat at a luncheon the other day to resolve j ..upon the movement than have touched hands and delibeiattd since' the days of Liberty loans and the lied Cross.

Aside from the miner and forester, practicalY the whole of the Inconglonieiate, top-heavy city mass which we call civilization rests mioii the farmer, and has so grown in proportion that under the strain of dividing up his earnings to support them, the farmer is carrying a burden that threatens lo ciush him. Yet the fanner is the great customer. Tluough the counlry bar.k he is indirectly a palion of the city bank. Tluough the coun try merchant he is indirectly the customer of the city wholesaler and the city manufacturer. He buys 1(1 to (1(1 per cent of the man ufactured goods Amoiicnu industries make.

Now, where theie is the faetoiy system or gioup pioduction there is giuup capital. Where there is gioup capital there must lie a corpoiatioii fermed. 'I hat is why every state in the I'nion established l-iws whereby group marketing and production could be carried on, giv ing iis the ai lil'icial thing called a corporation fur ca; lying on that activity. Put they forgot the farmer. '1 he fanner's is the only part of modern industry (besides art) in which you have individ ual production. The ideal of eveiy man is a country dulled wiih farm uniis in which one man operates the farm and produces tluough his own labor or tluough the assistance of hired men. And they think that because the farmer produces individually, niarki t ing is an individual pmblem. P.ut maiki.'tin.T h not individual at all It is a group problem.
