These figures are from the department of agricul ture’s report for last year, showing the deflation from 1919. The per centage of decline on hogs is 44, beef cattle 35, hay 31, eggs 29, wheat 21, and yet for the same period wholesale prices of all com modities advanced 38 per cent. The result of this condition is two standards of values—two price levels. Under it the farmer’s dollar is deflated to 53 cents, as every thing he has to purchase has ad vanced 38 per cent while the prod uct he has to sell to obtain the dol lar has been set back on an aver age of 32 per cent. There can’t be permanent pros perous conditions under this double system. It is not based on perma nency. High wholesale commodity values are largely forced by com bination might, while low prices for land products are forced onto the farmer by the defenseless condition ot agriculture. Demand and supply have little to do with either hign or low prices. So long as the present system of fixing prices prevails, the farmer simply must get in the game and pull his industry up to the level of other business—he must make his dollar worth as much as the other dollar—for the other industries are tot going to voluntarily lower their standards to the present agricul tural level. Group action, compact organiza tion, is the means. Farmers must run their industry just as the manu facturing concerns operate theirs. They must pool their products, do their own selling and distributing, control their production, fix their own selling price. The cotton grow ers are doing this; the tobacco growers have pulled their industry out of the mud and onto a profit able and prosperous basis by joint action; the fruit industry of Cali fornia has changed disaster to pros perous conditions by the producers standing shoulder to shoulder. Governor Pierce, in his recent speech in Portland, stated that of farm products for which the con sumer paid $3 the grower received but $i and that there could not be generally prosperous condition's un der such an unjust and unbalanced system. Cooperation by producers, retail ers aud consumers can reduce this excessive middle profit and middle expense. It must be done if agri cultural states are to prosper. A more direct system of distribution and fewer middle interests must be established. Products must be brought to the working class con sumers at prices they will pay, in order that there may be normal demand, yet the grower must re ceive a living profit for his work and investment to have normal pro duction. There is room enough in th« “spread” between the dollar the grower gets and the three dollars the family pays to bring about both of these conditions, but it will take efficient organization. It is hard to understand that both consumers and producers will permit middle inter ests to add twice the first cost of products to the ultimate consumer. Mrs. W. A. Garoutte entertained at dinner Tuesday evening in honor of George Goss, of Portland, who had been here visiting relatives. Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Hart and Mr. and Mrs. E. J. McDonald were the other guests. <8> 'S> Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Nokes, of Albany, were guests Sunday at the home of Mr. Nokes’ parents* Mr. and Mrs. John Nokes.
