C.—A resounding call to all farm co-operatives to ■bide by sound so-operative princi ples and not rely upon government assistance has been issued by the National Cooperative Council, Wash ington, D. C., which comprise farm ers' business cooperatives, mainly marketing associations, with 1,260,- 000 members and handling a billion dollars worth of farm products an nually. A "code of guiding principles" adopted by the semi-annual dele gates’ meeting was announced, as follows : Code of Guiding Principles. “(1) Business co-operatives are created by farmers as agencies through which they collectively sell their products or purchase their supplies. Sunch co-operatives being owned and controlled by the mem bers should at all times have the wholehearted participation* of these members in the risks, gains and los ses of the business operations. There fore, the members in building such co-operatives should invest therein, substantial amounts of their own funds, commensurate with the needs of the business. "(2) Business co-operatives are called upon to meet the competition of keen, strongly financed organiza tions owned or operated by capable men of fong experience. To func tion properly under such circum stances, the co-operatives should build a strong financial structure •ble to attract ample funds from commercial banks and other loan ing agencies, at reasonable rates. "(3) The management of the bus iness cooperative must be qualified to perform the executive functions in an efficient and satisfactory man ner. "The cooperative manager has, in many respects, a harder work to per form than his non-cooperative com petitor. Only men of known high calibre and business ability should be selected for this position, and such men should associate with them, capable, promising assistants, in order to assure a continuity not subject to interruption by any sud den change tn personnel. Avoid Profits on Non-Members. "(4) Business co-operatives have been created by farmers as service organizations, to promote and estab lish a more scientific and orderly distribution of farm products, or purchase of farm supplies, and laws have been enacted enabling the or ganized farmers to perform those functions. These organizations un dertake to accomplish through co- operation what the members could not accomplish singly. "Business cooperatives should not engage in general buying and sell ing: sales or purchases for non members should be strictly limited to those transactions essential to the efficient handling of the members’ own business, and such non-member business should be on a non-profit basis. "If a desire for profits is allowed to supplant the cooperative objective of savings In operations, the future of cooperative effort is seriously en dangered. "(5) Government assistance is es sentially political, and for that rea son is not sufficiently stable to warrant its utilization as founda- for cooperative growth. Co-opera tives need not spurn such govern ment aid as does not In any way weaken their structure or encourage unsound expansion, but the co-oper ative should make sure at all times that it can continue to function In spite of a possible withdrawal of such governmental advantages, and should discourage undue governmen- Ui liberality In this regard. Should Have Opea Membership. “(6) The business co-operative busy with problems of meeting com petitive operations should not be burdened with the duty of collect ing dues for any other organization. No business co-operative should say, in effect, to its members or pros pective members, that they cannot be members of the cooperative un less they join a certain church, lodge or general farm organization "(7) Back of the business opera- tions of the co-operative Is a sup porting background consisting of the Interest, knowledge of the business affairs, and the co-operative vision of the membership. During the past few years of intense economic strug- de many cooperstives have been forced to forego important merer. TO EVERY MEMBER. Canning Schedule AUGUST 19 TO 25. 8:00 to 11:00 A. M.

A supply of dried fruits and vege tables in addition to the canned ones not only offers a greater variety In the winter menu but saves expense for jars and labor in canning, says Miss Lucy A. Case, extension spec ialist in foods and nutrition at Ore gon State college. Almost any food can be preserved by drying. Miss Case points out, but of course some are much more deli cious than others. Dried corn is a favorite with many people, some of whom prefer it to canned corn. Dried pears, apples, prunes, peaches and apricots can be re-hydrated or "soaked up” and made into sauce, pies, fruit cobblers and filling for upside-down cakes, or used in var ious other ways. Some people, Miss Case says, have a special liking for dried berries in spite of the seeds, and use them in pudding sauces, cookies and for fla voring many other foods. Even to matoes can be caked down and dried in a sheet and furnish excel lent flavoring for stews, soups, ma caroni, and other dishes. Although so much exposure to the air probab ly destroys the much-boasted vita min content of the tomato, the min erals in dried products are much more concentrated. Miss Case ex plains. Dried fruits rank high in iron content, she says. The hot summer sunshine, the heat from a stove, or a rapid current of air furnished by a fan may be used for drying foods, says Miss | Case. The color of green vegetables or other products that oxidize readi ly is improved by blanching them in | boiling water for 2 to 5 minutes be- | fore drying. Most fruits and vege tables are peeled and sliced or cubed | to facilitate drying, and then placed in thin layers on racks, trays or plates. The most desirable drying temperature is from 140 to 150 de grees Fahrenheit. Drying time varies with the thick ness and texture of the product. Dried fruits should be leathery and pliable, and dried vegetables brit tle but not baked or scorched. To test a drying product, break It in two at the thickest part. If no moisture can be squeezed from the broken end it is sufficiently dry. It is then conditioned for three days, reheated and sealed in paper bags or boxes, to exclude insects. It is well to examine and reheat them ev ery few months. Directions for constructing a home-made drier, and detailed direc tions for drying, conditioning and storing 16 diferent fruits and vege tables are contained in Extension bulletin 479, "Home Food Preserva tion.” which may be had free from county extension offices or from the state college at Corvallis. The Tri-Grange picnic, consisting of members of Westland Grange, Stanfield Grange and White Owl Grange, was well attended and all participants report having a rous ing good time. Horseshoe pitching and visiting between Grange members took up the time before lunch. The individual Grange members furnished a bountious lunch, while the Grange organizations furnished the coffee and ice cream. After lunch a program was ren dered, consisting of readings, music, and speaking. Frank Seeliger, mas ter of Westland Grange, told of the organizing of the Grange in March, and the rapid and constant growth since that time. Master Depperman of White Owl Grange spoke of the splendid work of his Grange, which also is making good progress. J. M. Richards, Past Master of Stanfield Grange, gave an interesting talk on why the Grange came into being, and enumerated the various achieve ments of the organization. E. H. Dunning gave a short talk in which he reviewed co-operative achievements, locally, nationally and internationally, stating in his remarks that a large number of co operative wholesales were now In existence in the United States, and that these were combined Into what is known as "National Cooperatives Inc.”, which is what might be called a super co-op wholesale. Following his remarks on coop eration he spoke of the Federal Cre dit Union being organized at Her miston. and explained briefly what a credit union is for. R. G Penney, general manager of the Grange Co-op. was master of ceremonies and his ready wit and 99 ------------ humorous remarks kept the audience in good humor and high spirits.

A great er participation by women in the de liberations of co-operative members may help to bring about a more gen eral family interest in the coopera tive way of doing business. "In giving attention to education al and social work, the directors and management should keep in mind, however, that developing a co-oper ative spirit is no substitute for effi cient business operation. It should always be remembered that coopera tive marketing and purchasing are economic activities and that they can have constructive social signifi cance only if they are conducted on sound economic principles.” j WATCH REPAIRING Tramps Out Reed Canary Seed ALBANY — When Paul Ohling.
