Nothing could be further from the triifh, he said, than the claim that better prices proved “that the situ ation upon tlie farm was righting itsnelf." a Only bv organization within itself tor the marketing of products aud for other common ends could agriculture cure the economic ills that stilt afflict it regain its rightful place in a highly organized w-orld aud restore the proper balance between itself and other business activities.

the economic structure. Lowden said i that, in uu t-ra in which progress is attained only through organization, tile farmer has been the last to realize the value of organization for its own sake. "in all other fields of commerce, unrestricted, free ams open competition in the marketing of products has been gradually disappearing." he con j tinued. "In ail other industries there lias been a growing tendency to stabilize prices, largely through the organization of a few great corpor atious which have taken the place of innumerable smaller independent units in agriculture alone have the methods of marketing made no improvement, except as to the sale of i hose products which are now being marketed through co-operative asso ciations." In urging organization for farmers. Mr. Lowden said lie did not mean that they should operate their farm through corporate management, but i hotlld work together for the solution of problems concerning the market ing of their products and the restoration of the proper relationship between the prices they receive for their products auu im prices they pay for other commodities. %'o-operative farm marketing associations are no longer an experiment,’" tie said. "Wherever co-operatives have ben employed, there you will find agriculture in it 3 best state The farms -arc better improved and are kept hi a higher slate of cultivation and repair. I can foresee the lay when everything produced upon the farm for market will be marketed by the farmers themselves through an organization of their own creation." v And Understandable. Too A.

Said the boss: "Boy. don't complain At a little extra pain. Never whimper never grumble At the task that's hard to da l>o not think that you're misused. Being punished or abused. Take the tough job with a chuckle, It’s a compliment to you. "Now you mutter, audit's true. This is difficult to do. Twill require long.hours of patience.
