FARMERS who are interested in improving rather than lamenting- their condition, will read with interest a recent article by Samuel Crowther on the history of cooperative marketing organ izations. v - . Only those organizations, Crowther points out, which are based on theories which would work, have succeeded. He indi cates that price-setting, with its consequent dangers of over-production, is always a risky procedure, i Suppose the farmer were guaranteed a profit on wheat. It would 'not be long until all available land was in wheat. The same situation would prevail if prices on hogs were guaranteed or if cows were priced at $100 a head without any operation of the law of supply and-demand.. Orderly marketing, says Crowther, is far different than price-fixing. It makes possible crop distribution over a 12-month instead of a one-month period. It prevents glutting the trade at harvest and forcing down the price to. the advantage of the spec ulator who corners supply and waits for the inevitable advance oc casioned by demand. , ; . A , ; ; .. Anyone treads on dangerous ground when agricultural relief is mentioned but any ground is dangerous and treacherous if it ignores the fact that theories must be sound if they are to be nut Into effective practice. ; r '-:,. rANT to test the bigness of Want-to find OUt if VOnV . . 1 XI A ' T .

Individual excellence, potency, ' and' tha reliability of the party from whom purchased. . It should be remembered that pure breeding Is Important In a breeding sire as it means that his type has been fixed by a long: line of ancestors of similar type, and that he will there fore transmit his qualities. with more certainty than the grand sire. It Is. well to keep In mind also that there are oertaln families within every breed that -stand out because of their su perior excellence,' and that such fam ilies are especially desirable. ;; It Is a good safeguard, to have a horse examined and certified sound by a competent and reliable veterinarian before buying. If this Is not possible, a guarantee ; should be secured : that the horse will pass, the requirements of the stallion registration board, and payment should .be withheld until a license has been secured. A horse may be pure bred and sound, and et an undesirable Individual. A horse which would not himself be a high-priced gelding if castrated . can hardly be expected to sire high-priced gdlngs.,-;:i;: A-'-'-;"::' In'huylng. a guarantee should be se cured that jtbe, hjrse wIU prove a CO per cent Toal getter, tender conditions with which yon can comply, end that failing to do so the purchase price wilt be refunded In cash. Remember thafsuch a guarantee Is of little value unless given by a responsible party. Before buying a stallion It is well to Inform yourself as to the reliability of the party with whom yon expect to deal. There are plenty of reliable breeders, and dealers from whom good stallions can be secured and they are worthy of your patronage. There are also' menj in the business of selling stallions who are not reliable and It Is weU to avoid them. , , The color and markings should be carefully examined to see thst tbey correspond with .those calld for In the pedigree.

"-'A i- AMERICAN poIlUcai leaders at the beginning of tha Nineteenth cen tury' were duly impressed by the dl lemma of 1800, In which Thomas Jef ferson scd Aaron Burr, ef the Jeffer son Republican , party, had receive an equal number of votes for Presl dent. ?"The tied contest : bad beet, thrown Into the bouse of represents Uvea. There the opposing Federalists party, having a majority, threatened for a time to elect Burr rather than Jefferson, although the latter " bad been clearly Intended for President and the former for vice president by their own party. . This dilemma arose under the earlj system" which required each membei of the -electoral college to cast two votes, each for different men, but without distinction ss to which man was desired for President and which for vice president, In 1803, during President Jeffer son's first term,- recurrence of such a deadlock as nearly had kept him out of the White House and had thrown : tha country Into great con fusion waa : definitely forestalled. Congress submitted to the states the Twelfth amendment to the Federal Constitution, under which each mem ber of the electoral college waa to cast ona vote for President and one for vice president. Duly ratified by the ststea, the amendment went into effect in 1804, In time lor. the elec tion of that year. . ; 41 i If ' Thus threatening difflcultfes' !nth way of orderly elections were removed. But methods of nominating candidates, for which no means had been pro vided or suggested In the Constlto tlon, continued to be s matter of alow evolution. . The first stage In the development nominations by caucuses In congress was a natural one. Absence of quick means of communication made cou gress the only deliberative body that adequately could represent popular opinion. Jeffersonlan Republicans had frowned on :aucua nominations when tbey first were made by the Federalist partyL but these squeamish scruple soon were abandoned and the Itepub Means formally held a caucus to re nominate ' Jeffersop in 1804. . In 1808, however, definite ob jection within the party was raised against the caucus that nominated James Madison of Virginia to suc ceed Jefferson. Strangely enough. George Clinton of New York, plckoti by the caucua to be Madison's run ning mate, protested against the meO od of his own nomlnstlon to be vlc , president' DeWItt Clinton of New Tork, when be saw that he could not get the cau cus nomination, broke away from tt Jeffersonlan Republican party In 181-' and was nominated by. a fusion state convention of Republicans and Fed erallsts In New York. Practically all the other nominations in the firs' fifth of the century were made by caucus. It remained for doughty Gen. Andrew Jackson to vitalize the opposition to Presidential nominating caucuses that, their float abandonment was accomplished. Meantime the, "Virginia dynastyq of Presidents Jefferson, Madison and Monroe succeeded In getting elected with but fittle opposition. The Fed erallst party was but a shell, which In some elections did not even take the trouble to put up Presidential candidates, ; Z; ': A President Monroe, ss the last figure of tha ""Virginia ' dynasty.' managed to please both Federalists' and Re publicans so well tha't he was wholly unopposed for re-election In J82U. A But for s single vote cast by s New V Hampshire elector fot John Adams V son... John : Qulncy -JLdama, Monroe would hsve shared. Washing ton's unlqte distinction , of a unani mous election to the Presidency.
