Tuesday, October 23,1923 PAGE FOUR THE HEPPNER HERALD, HEPPNER, OREGON Control of Production and Marketing Urged By A. G. FRIEWALD Much has been said about the farmer and his troubles and many suggestions have been affered to re lieve them, especially the wheat grow ers. Most of these suggestions have come from congressmen, bankers and other sources, but few from the farm ers, themselves. The idea that seems iiievaicui in trie minds of most of the farmers is that something must he done to help him out of his diffi culties. The general trend of opinion seems to be that the government should guarantee a price or do some other equally absurd thing. The writer proposes in this article to show that the ultimate and permanent vray out is for organized production and marketing, and to suggest a method for achieving this end. All estimates and statistics sub stantiate an average annual surplus of 200,000,000 bushels of wheat in the United States. This surplus, un der our unregulated method of al lowing each farmer to put in the crop which will cause him the least amount of work whether his soil and climatic eonditions are best suited for that crop or not, will not de crease, but rather will It increase. Some contend that when Euro pean conditions; are adjusted we will find an outlet for this surplus. But Will Wfi? The people of Europe have found that they can get along very well without a lot of the things they thought necessary before the war and will through scientific methods Increase their yields to such an ex tent that importation will be much less than a few years ago. When they do import they will, of course, buy cheapest. Canada and Argen tina with a combined surplus almost PEN FILLING STATIONS NOW the amount of the dues paid. It can also be used to buy, build or lease warehouses and other storage facili ties. A specified proportion could be used for financing the regular ad vances to the growers and a part might also be set aside for the ex press purpose; of aiding a small per centage of the members through ex ceptionally difficult situations. Government agricultural specialists as well as the state agricultural schools can be pressed into service to co-operate with these associations in determining what lands are most suited for the growing of wheat and which lands could more profitably raise other commodities which we are now importing; such as flax, hemp and sugar beets. Some of these are becoming higher in. cost every day. With this aid and the authority which could be vested in the man agement to see that recommenda tions made by these specialists were carried out the amount of wleat raised would be adjusted nearer our own needs and would allow the or ganizations to follow an orderly mar keting program which would put the pricp of wheat at a legitimate profit making figure. r The writer realizes that it is too late for this year's crop to receive the benefits which would surely be derived from an organization of this sort, but feels that it is not too soon to lay the foundation for handling the next crop along this line. Penny in the Slot Machine of Chicago University Gives the Customer Quick Action. What do you do when your fountain pen runs dry at the must inconvenient possible moment us it always does? If you are a suulent at the University of Chicago you patronize the nearest tilling station. The campus is sup plied witli these quite as freely as the Lincoln highway with tilling stations for the tourist. A penny in the slot operates the machine and enables the owner of the most voracious pen to appease the thirst of his Instrument, says .Scientific American. The machine works with self-tilling pens and with the old style that tills from a dropper provided the user has his own dropper. The dropping of a coin and the turning of the handle re leases the ink from the reservoir, and the fluid flows into the right-hand well, whence it can he sucked up by the pen itself or by the dropper. A slot in the upper left hand corner of the outfit contains a wiper with which any damage done by spilling or slop ping may he repaired. If one drink turns out not enough, a second penny will, of course, turn the trick. NOTICE OF SHERIFFS SALE large enough to satisfy these mar- Sets will be the controlling factor in this European demand. With their cheap land, low taxes and cheap la bor they can produce wheat for about one-half of what it costs the Amer ican farmer. Under such conditions the necessity for organized adjust ment of production is obvious. President Coolidge has appointed a committee to, investigate conditions and encourage the farmers to form eo-operative marketing associations as the only method of relief. In this Mr. Coolidge has shown himself to le a very levelheaded advisor and the farmers of the nation will do well to consider this suggestion with great tare. Durine the war the U. S. Grain corporation was established to pro tect the consumer from paying exces sive prices, this it accomplished with a remarkable degree of success but in doing this left a great many of the farmers in a rather distressed situation while the corporation with all of its transactions now closed shows a profit) of approximately $55, 000,000. Who can contradict that this profit rightfully belongs to the farmer and that he should have the benefit of it? The committee appointed by thp President will no doubt follow his suggestion and do all they can to help the farmer help himself. The writer believes that this $55,000,000 should be used in establishing co operative associations in all the wheat-raising states, many of which are already organized but do not yet contro lenough of the wheat raised to show results. This money should be available to each state on a pro rata basis as to the number of bushels raised during any one year or period of years but should become available only after 6 5 per cent of the total wheat grown in that state is signed up. It could then be used to defray expenses necessary to conducting the campaign for membership. In other words' the members can be rebated New Noses. German surgery has profited so greatly by the lessons learned in re storing disfigured faces of wounded soldiers that it is now possible to sub stitute a person's face almost entirely. Particularly in aflixing new noses or in straightening out old ones have the operators come to be regarded as perfect. Horseshoes of Paper. It has been proposed to make a pa per horseshoe that shall for general purposes be the equal of the steel ar ticle in the following way: Parch ment paper is cut into horseshoe form and built up to a suitable thickness by the use of a mixture of turpen tine, Spanish white shellac and lin seed oil treated with litharge, and the whole is placed under a hydraulic press. This produces very light and uniform pieces and it is an easy mat ter to stamp out the nail holes and grooves, instead ot nailing to tne horse's hoof they can be applied with an adhesive composition whose prin cipal part is a solution of rubber in bisulphide of carbon. Paper waste could also be molded into the shape of a horseshoe by use of the press, but the result is not so good as with the above. Will It Improve Her Health? "According to an eminent doctor," said father, looking up from his paper, "society girls should spend the sum mer in factories, as it would give them a complete change for their health, which they greatly need." "All right, papa," spoke up his daughter, "I'm ready now go and get cue a job in a candy factory."
