Ienry Ford said in a speech some
months ago that the American farm
er was starting at the wrong end of
the co-operative movement, that he
had hitched the horse ahead of the
wagon; that the big objective of or
ganization was co-operative selling,
while it shout! start with production
Instead. Mi. Ford illustrated that
there was a field of corn here, a field
of wheat here, a team of horses and
a half dozen" cows; a few pigs here
and a few sheep there endlessly
repeated all over the nation. Mr.
Ford says this is not farming, that
is an unorganized condition of need
less waste and work, bad for the
farmer and the country.
Tle leaders of co-operative move
ments in this country the real men
with vision realize that there is
much truth in these statements and
that co-operation must get closer and
tighter to the production points; that
all the cows, the grains, the meat
and products must be pooled and
worked out on the production
ground; that the hogs shoufd be
cured into bacon where the hogs are
raised; that the flour should be
milled where the wheat is grown;
that the butter and cheese should be
a part of co-operative production.
Unless these are done by the farmer,
and the great middle profits retained
by him, then They wITY be done by
others who are waiting for agricul
ture to completely collapse anTthe
lands come into their possession.
In a recent talk at Cornell Univer
sity, at Ithaca, N. Y., one of the pro
fessors stated that there was over
production on every hand largely
the result of undter-consumption
and that farming in the old way of
for production only must give way
Jn part to the raising of materials
needed in manufacturing industries.
He Stated that he believed that
shortly oils and fuel alcohol would
become ffefd and garden products,
and that a field of potatoes would
be of greaf commercial' valine" as a
product to make fuel alcohol from;
that weeds the farmer fights to ex
terminate today will be cultivated
for their use in making rubber, and

The wheat growers of the nation
are vitally Interested in the bill be
fore congress for an export corpor
ation to handle the surplus produc
tion of the country. If the till be
comes a Jaw it will be the greatest
step for control of farm products, as
it is not confined to wheat entirely,
but to all farm products. If it gives
the expected relief to wheat produc
ers, it can be also applied to live
stock and other lines of agriculture.
The cattle men of Oregon are fac
ing the same conditions as confront
the wheat growers, apple and fruit
raisers, and one of two results seem
certain, that there must be a power
ftul co-operative organization to
force profit conditions or cattle rais
ing in Oregon for meat most end,
or be greatly diminished. There is
much agitation for a strong co-oper
ative producers' organization for the
Pacific northwest.
The outcome of thp economic con
ference at the Oregon " Agricultural
college last month will be watched
with keen interest. It is the first in
stance in history where a state col
lege has taken up such a problem as
the agricultural situation to" work
