Las week The Gazette-Times had something to say regarding the farm er and his tendency to send away from home for merchandise. The talk was not directed to fanners alone but may be applied to all classes, even including the merchant himself. But what we are striving for and would like to see, is a closer co-operation between farmer and lo cal merchant. The spirit manifested at the farmers picnic last Saturday was splendid and more get-together meetings of that nature will have a grand influence in bringing about better farming conditions in Morrow county. County Agent Hunt has called our attention to a system which is being worked out successfully in Deschutes county and a system which he hopes will be carried out here In the near future. It pertains to 'co-operative buying." Under the farm bureau plan all the farmers and farm organizations get together on both the buying and selling end of the market business. By bulking orders individual mem bers of the bureau have been able to buy their necessities much cheaper than they could by buying individual ly. The latest purchase by the farm bureau has been a carload of wire and represents a saving of 30 per cent to the members. The order was handled by a local dealer and on account of the size of the order he was able to deliver it at a price much lower than he could if he had had to carry the wire in stock and sell to each man as he came in. Our new county agent has started the ball a rolling. He is hammer ing on the same principles that have brought success to every other com munity where introduced and in his efforts he must have the backing of not only the farmers, but business man and merchant as well. PIONEERING. "Pioneering don't pay," said Mr. Carnegie on one occasion. As re gards the fortunes of individual pio neers, verv often it "don't." Often the first settlers merely sow and oth prQ rpan. By this time loosely speaking we know all about airplanes and aerial navigation. Preparations more careful than those made bv the Navy Department for a transatlantic flight would be fairly impossible. But only one of its three olanes eot across. That the crews of the two others were not lost was cartlv eood luck Hawker and Grieve were saved by one chance out or a dozen. You mav know all about anything on paper, but two times out of three it will not come out that way in prac tice until experience and actual practice and corrected the theory. About two times out of three the per fect shop model develops unsuspect ed weaknesses on the road. -Certainly pioneering does pay so cialiv in everv Dhase of life and ev ery branch of human activity, in- U eluding poimcs ana economic, um i only the pioneering that keeps one jHlj foot on experience and makes its u plans with the mental reservation SE that after the best forethought has E been taken the first attempt will pro- bably go wrong and have to be tried E over. The first men to fly Wilbur and Orville Wright beat rivals who planned more ambitiously, Because they proceeded by slow, patient, ac tual experiments. Launching on a transatlantic flight before the machine has been thor nuchlv tried out over a uond is not real cioneerine but onlv suicidal ir-' -5 responsibility. That is about what a lot of alleged pioneers in politics 5 and economics want to oo. aatur day Evening Post. LATE HOURS THAT PAY.

Illllllllillllllllllilll THERE IS A CHARM A SURPASSING EXCELLENCE ABOUT Welworth Blouses THAT IS OFTEN IMITATED . but even though 'tis said that "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" imitation is, at best, merely an imitation; and after all, it is easy to distinguish Welworth blouses for every "Welworth" blouse has a distinctive 4 ' Welworth ' ' label. We are proud of our connections with the manufacturers of Welworth Blouses and Wirthmor Waists; glad to sell their product to our friends, for we know that those who purchase will always be more than pleased with the unfailing combina tion of durability and style with which these garments are characterized. Welworth blouses are smart, becoming and may be had in mdllels that are quite elaborate with exquisite trimmings or those that are equally effective in their charming simplicity. Welworth Blouses Wirthmor Waists $2.50 $1.50 Another line of self-evident excellence is The Mina Taylor Dress' You only have to see them to recognize their superiority to other lines of ready-made dresses superior in material, superior in styles, superior in workmanship.

ITS UP TO YOU There is just as much reason for efficiency on the farm as there is in an automobile factory turning out nine hundred thousand automo biles in a single year. Efficiency is always the basis of . a large production With the governmena guaranteeing the price of wheat, and the increasing demand for beef, pork and milch cows, the thinking, efficient farmer is going to make big profits this year. You will need better and larger storage facilities for your crops. You will need larger housing room for your implements and machinery. If you raise cattle, you will need a larger barn, perhaps a new one. And now is the time to get these improvements under way, for delay may very easily prevent them. As an intelligent reader of the daily news reports from European countries, you know there is a demand for building materials beyond any previous record. Thousands of homes are to be replaced, new com mercial buildings of ever description will have to be constructed. And the capacity of the mills of this country will be taxed to the utmost. We are able to make deliveries now, but cannot guarantee to do so, if you wait too long. Let us go over your needs now, help you plan such improvements, as are necessary, and get out the materials. They will insure greater production on your farm, and more profit. Yours For a Prosperous Year Tum-a-Lum Lumber Co.
