men have robbed the public by
allowing produce to rot rather
than put it on the market below
a fictitiously fixed price. As the
influence of a co-operative selling
system extends ita influence, the
commission man’s territory will
jecome less and less, until in a
few short years this class of rob-
jers will have entirely disappear­
ed.
The only way for small pro­
ducers to find a profitable market
is by and through co-operative
organizations, of which the new
cannery association at this place
is, in a small way, a fair sample,
and members of this association
are already reaping the benefits,
while the association can hardly
be said to be in operation. Every
producer in the community should
be a member.

And he drew her to him and gave
her a couple of dozen prematrimonial

and sometimes when he's thinking on
other matters even that is perfunc­
tory.
Tom’s salary was not large, and the
couple had no Income except what he
earned. The husband had not been an
expert on economy, but the wife wns
a good manager. “ I’ll just turn over
to you,” he said, “ my salary check
each week, and you do nil the plan­
ning. I shall need very little for my
personal expenses, and I enn take that
as I want It. That’s the way they do

while a third looks out for the
finances.”
“ The finance man o f the company.

“ Well, yes, usually.”
“ In our case you make the Income
on which we live, and I attend to Its
expenditure. In other words, you are
heud o f the firm, and I’m the junior
partner.”
“ I suppose that’s the way to look at
it."
So Tom turned over the checks ench
Saturday night to his wife, and, Blnce
she was a splendid manager, nil went
very well. There were no outstand­
ing bills, nothing absolutely needful
that was not forthcoming, while a per
centage of each week’s salary wns put
uway regularly for emergencies, such
as doctor’s bills, nnd another amount
for a nest egg.
“ My dear,” said the hnppy husband
“ when I run a big business I’ll want
you for my financial manager. I could
make money In any enterprise witl)
you to handle the cash.”
“ And Isn’t It nice,” replied the wife,
“ that yon can feel that you’re the bend
o f the house?”
•
“ I’ll admit," said Tom thoughtfully,
“ that it is. No man likes to feel that
he must be obedient to n woman.”
It wns a few dnys after this remark
that Tom needed n pair of gloves.
Susie told him to go to her box, where
she kept the household moneys, and
get what he needed. There wns noth­
ing smaller than n five dollar bill. He
took it, expecting to return thechaugc.
Unfortunately, during the day an old
chum that he hadn’t seen for years
came In to see him. Tom took him out
to lunch and when he went home re­
turned $3 to the cash box Instead of
$4. The result wns that when Tom
gave his wife the marital kiss she
smelled beer. She said nothing, but
after he had de(K>slted the balnnce of
the cash she went to the drnwer nnd
found It a dollar short.
“Tom,’’ she said, “ how much did you
take from the box this morning?”
“ A fiver. There wns nothing small­
er.”
“ IIow much did your gloves cost?”
“ A dollar.”
“ That leaves $4 to go back, nave
you put it all In?”
"All, except a dillnr.”
“ What became of that?"
"Well, you see, Pete Hathaway eame
to town today, and I took him out to
lunch with me.”
The look on Mrs. Atherton’s face
was lowering, but she snld nothing.
There was n silent dinner between
them, after which Tom said:
“ Susie, I wish you’d get that look
off your face. It’s all because I spent
a dollar today—a miserable, single dol­
lar—and that entertaining nn old friend
I haven’t seen for several years.”
“ Who authorized you to spend a
dollar for such a purpose?”
“ Who authorized me? Am I account­
able to you for the money I spend?”
“ I thought I wns to be the financial
member o f our firm.”
“ So you are, so you are, but am I
not the head o f the concern?”
“ O f course you are! But thnt dol­
lar you spent today I Intended for an­
other purpose.”
“ What purpose?”
"I had Just enough with it to buy
our Sunday provisions.
Now we’ll
have to eat canned salmon for Sunday
dinner.”
That was the beginning, a new light
breaking In on Tom’s brain. His wife’s
management of their affairs was so
excellent, produced such beneficial re­
sults, that he became more o f a slave
to her every day True, there was a
profit in It all. but Tom was a slave
all the same. “ Somebody once de­
clared,” he says, “ that he didn’t care
who made a nation's taws so long as
he could write Its songs. My wife
doesn’t care who makes the money for
the family so long as she disburses It
Head o f the bouse be hanged! I have
to account to her for «vary penny I
•pend.”
