Without trying to catalogue the re medial measures that have been sug gested In his behalf, the principal pro- postils that bear directly on the Im provement of his distributing and mar keting relations may be summarized as follows :— First : storage warehouses for cot- i 'ti, wool, and tobacco, and elevators for grain, of sufficient capacity to meet the maximum demand on them at the peak of the marketing period. The farmer thinks that either private capi tal must furnish these facilities, or the slate must erect and own the eleva tors and warehouses. Second: weighing and grading of agricultural products, end certification rlierpof, to he done by impartial and d »interested public inspectors (this Is already accomplished to some extent by the federal llcenklng of weighers and graders), to eliminate underpay ing. overcharging, and unfair grading, and to facilitate the utilization of the stored products ns the basis of credit. Third : a certainty o f credit sufficient to enable the marketing o f products In an orderly manner. Fourth: the Department of Agricul ture should collect, tabulate, summa rize, and regularly and frequently pub lish and distribute to the fanners, full Information from all the markets of the world, so that they shall be as well Informed of their selling position as buyers now are of their buying posi tion. F ifth : freedom to Integrate the busi ness of agriculture by means of con solidated selling agencies, co-ordinat ing and co-operating In such way as to put the farmer on an equal footing with the large buyers o f his products, and with commercial relations In other Industries. When a business requires specialized talent, it has to buy It. So will the farmers ; and perhaps the best way for them to get It would he to utilize some of the present machinery of the larg est established agencies dealing In farm products. Of course, If he wishes, the farmer may go further and engage in finnr-mllllng and other manufactures of food products. In my opinion, however, he would be wise to stop short of that. Public Interest may be opposed to all great Integrations; but, 'n Justice, should they be forbidden to the former and permitted to others? The corporate form of association can not now be wholly adapted to Ms ob jects and conditions. The looser co operative form seems more generally suitable. Therefore, he wishes to be tree, if he finds It desirable and fens ible, to resort to eo-operatlon with his fellows and neighbors, without run nlng afoul of the law. To urge that the farmers should have the same lib erty to consolidate and co-ordinate their peculiar economic functions which other industries In their fields enjoy, Is not. however, to concede that any holiness Integration should have legislative sanction to exercise monop olistic power. The American people sre as firmly opposed to Industrial as to political autocracy, whether at tempted h.v rural or by urban Industry. For lack of united effort the farmers as a whole are still marketing their •tops by antiquated methods, or by no uastbixU *1 » !'. h,! l they gye sqrroagdoO Bring Your Check Book and Take Home a Girl A Box Social With Up-To- Date Methods.
