Producers as a class have made In late years long strides along the line of more intelligent and systematic methods or marketing their stuff. Time was when they were the luck less victims of commission men, too often unscrupulous, who extracted fat commission and turned over as lit tle as their generosity dictated. But producers grew weary of the holdup game and organized themselves Into co-operative associations whose chief object was the securing of a better market This movement was fought bitterly by those who had waxed fat under the old system of Individual buying, but it was of no use. The co operative movement Is here to stay. and Its success Is assured. First grain growers organized; then followed the organization of growers of oranges, apples, grapes, small fruits and gar den truck, and In almost every in stance market and price conditions have improved as a result In those sec tions where such organization has been effected. Not only doca such or ganization make possible the estab lishment of a standard of excellence In the grade and quality of the prod' uce marketed, especially true In the case of fruits, but It makes possible the hiring of experienced men whose chief business it Is to look after and report on market conditions in the va nous distributing centers. One may give his stuff the most scientific and painstaking care, but if be Is held up when it comes to selling it It avails him little, and It would be decidedly to his Interest to organize. Producers In any locality who are still marketing Individually should look into the pos sibilities of this co-operative move ment, not for the purpose of exacting extortionate prices from the consum ing public, but to Insure fair returns for themselves, who endure the sweat and bear the brunt of production. A TIMELY WARNING. The Rocky Mountain Husbandman, one of the pioneer agricultural papers of Montana, bas lately been publish ing some timely words of caution for the benefit of the bomeseekers throng ing Into the state from the east and are filing on the bench lands away from the river valley with the Inten tion of raising wheat. It states that these lands must be worked by dry farming methods, which many of the newcomers know little or nothing about Of the advice and suggestion which a recent Issue of the Husband man contains the following Is worthy of reproduction for the benefit of those who are about to go to the seml-arld sections of the west to make their homes: "The worst mistake It is pos sible to make Is to try to raise a crop of grain on sod land the first season. The man with as much money as our dry land farm experts recommend Is all right anywhere, for be can eat and bis family will have plenty, but the man who undertakes to build a dry land home without ample funds will find it different from a like undertak ing on Irrigated land. For the wife and children of the dry land home builder who is short of a year's main tenance our heart bleeds. The dry land home Is not meant for such. The proposition is essentially one for the well to do class." The advice which this paper gives is brave and honest, and its suggestions cannot be charged with having been dictated by a selfish Interest when the natural tendency would be to minimize rather than give at face value the difficulties with which the settler on the dry lands would be confronted. CARE THAT COUNTS. As showing that It Is scientific care of orchards rather than an alchemy of soil or climate that is the largely de termining factor In raising high qual ity and prize winning fruit it la worth noting the fact that It was a south western Iowa grower who won some of the best prizes offered at the Den ver apple show in less than carload exhibits, and that, too, in competition with the best box fruit of the west It is doubtless true that conditions are better in Colorado, Idaho, Washington and Oregon for the production of ap ples than lu lown, Missouri, Arkansas, Michigan or New fork, but notwith standing this it Is the care which the western fruit ranchman gives his trees that is chiefly responsible for his splen did success. Were methods that are at present in vogue in some eastern orchards to be adopted In the western fruit valleys there would not be enough marketable apples produced on the ranches to pay taxes and cost of till age from season to season. As we have before said in these notes, It la the pnlustaklng rare that the west erner gives his fruit ranch, and that as bis primary and chief occupation, that makes bis labor so profitable. Many an eastern orchard owner has learned this fact and Is profiting there by. Many more should profit by it. nan SHE MAY BE "MRS. SPEAKER." If Mrs. Decker Goat to Congrats and tha Stateame.l Elect Har, What Thenf Lots of women waut to vote, Mrs. Manila ltlcker wants to become gov ernor of New Hampshire, Mme. Mar guerite I mm nd wants to be president of France, and Mrs. Sarah Piatt Deck er wants to go to congress. There; it's all out -all lu one breath! You've got to hurry uowadays when you want to tell what women waut to do. Itefore you get through saying It they may have dune it. Of course Mrs. ltlcker doesn't really think she'll be Mrs. Governor Rlcker or (iovernor Mrs. Rlcker, whichever is proper. And Mme. Durand probably ad mits In private that she hits not decid ed on a uew color scheme for the pres iilontliil Apartments lu the Palais de I LIysees. Rut Mrs. Sarah Piatt Deck er really thinks she will be elected to tl.e house of representatives next fall. What is more to the point, the women voters of Colorado seem to have about made up their minds to send her there. Woman suffrage is stronger In Colo rado than ever before. The women were greatly Interested In the efforts of Judge Ren B. I.lndsry, the famous children's friend, to have himself re- MRS. SARAH PLATT DECKER. elected to the bench of the juvenile court, which he founded. They turned out In great numbers to vote for "Lit tle Hen," and he was re-elected. Mrs. Docker's appearance In the na tioiuil capitol would create quite a sen satioii. Constitutional lawyers are not sure whether the supreme law of the uatjou forbids a wouiuu to act as a legislator or not. Of course there is the word "he" in the cluuse relating to the election of congress men, but it is thought that a woman could get around that by pleading that in the constitutional provision the word "he' Is used Interchangeably with "she," as elsewhere. "If Mrs. Decker is elected, Is any man going to be ungallant enough to question her right to take her seat?" said ouc authority. Mrs. Decker Is surely qualified by experience to render wise service to the nation in the matter of legislation. She is known as a student of ques tions relating to education and the uplifting of the downfalien. She has been chairman of the Colorado board of charities and correction and presi dent of the Woman's club of Denver, one of the biggest and most enthusi astic In the world, and president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs.
