A few years ago in the heighth of the sea 50 a the growers could hard-' ly give them away. .The territory for shipment was. limited and .there was nothing to do with them. Then came the maififactuting era of berries Business men saw the raw materian going to waste and de cided to make a fruit juice, jam and canned products for national consump tion. They realized what the farmer did not, that they must create a mar ketgood fruit, was no good unless yo3 could sell it. Hundreds of thous ands of dollars were spent advertis ing loganberry products in the news papers and magaxinea of the country. People who had never-heard of logan- berry juice wondered what it was and in a few short years the manufactur ers af small fruit products had devel oped a national industry requiring more raw material than couldEe sup plied. - - - - - - f .ue price ct sroill fruits advanced .until 'today it is the most profitable crop the -farmer can raise. Industry has made farming profitable and it is now up the farmers to supply the ray material and co-operate with the manufacturing end of farming. The farmers could have raised ber. ries for the next hundred years and starved to death at it if commercial Interests had hot taken hold of the proposition and through publicity and a manufactured product created a market and a demand for the farm ers output That is why the farmer must stand shoulder to shoulder with industry for his own best interests.

There Is usually temptation to exag gerate the age of extremely old per sons; often they do It themselves. Not very long ago a man In Knglund.

There were hundreds of claim ants, but In no rase waa Irrefragable proof submitted. . In polut of longevity, women are far ahead of men. generally sneaking. They are more resistant to diseases and they live longer. And yet women are called the "weaker sex." 80 they are. musrularly, but It la manifest that they are the stronger sex constitution ally.
