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

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.

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."

der of sale of attached property is
