The Farm By WILLIAM "To my mind the world's greatest problem is that of properly feeding ner people. Thus writes John Andrews in the Dairy warmer, Waterloo, la. lie continues as follows: "Millions of people are half starved and hungry all the time: millions of children are starving, undernourished, dwarfed in body, soul and mind from lack of proper food. While these con ditions are outstanding in the old world :: r..ll i rv men and women and undernourished children. The food problem has always been and perhaps always will be the world's greatest economic problem. "The production of food is a farmer's problem a farmer's business. The marketing and distribution of food has been left largely to others, but that, too, is a farmer's problem and one that he must have more to say about it in the future than he has in the past." Having thus supplied his readers with much food for thought Mr. Andrews proceeds to discuss the value of dairy products as never failing foods and the value of the dairy cow as the producer of perfect food and as one great and sure source of income, where she is properly bred and cared, for. The Marketing Problem The marketing of dairy products in this country was for many years the easiest kind of a matter. Then came a time of increasing costs of milk production, also of distribution on account of union wages, wagon drivers, etc. Right here distributors of milk in the lai-!A riti! nvramidpH their nricps and profits and the consumer sufferer nronortinnatelv.

It k; Truth to tell it turned out that, in the j not onl' willing but anxious that our

Palladium readers are fully advised as to the present contentions of our milk farmers; they know all about the mass meeting of producers, held at the courthouse last Saturday, and are aware that distributors have reduced the price paid farmers 50 cents per 100 pounds, and auart bottles one this has been to strengthen and solidify the milk producers' association, j which claims to be producing milk at! a loss at present wholesale prices, also tnat tne IUll Deneni or inia cm. iias not been passed on to consumers, par - ticularly so as to buyers of pints, which are still on the old eight-cent basis. Condenseries Close Down. Owing to the vast stocks of canned milk shipped to Europe for use ot all

the soldiers and also on sale to civil- structing a sanitary sewer in the alians, the overseas demand has been I ley between Ratliff & Ridge Street, very largely curtailed during the past j from School to Stevens Street, two years. This led to the closing ; The Board of Public Works of said down of many important condenseries i city has fixed Thursday. March 3rd,

in practically all the dairy districts of the countryThis action freed a lot of milk to the consuming trade and there went out a cry of overproduction from New York and other eastern cities. This led to slight cuts in retail milk prices but the price did not get down low enough to stimulate consumption. The decline in all prices last fall, and the closing down of mills and factories, with continuous additions to the idle hosts, has further tended to reduce the demand for milk. No Real Overproduction. There is no real overproduction of milk in America. The trouble lies in

f armers' institute closed here Thurs gjri3 Gf frora si to sixteen years of age, and the parts taken by tho youngest actors, who predominated in numbers, were especially popular. One feature which excited the most comment was a propaganda song entitled "Join the Federation." written by Miss Buhl and sung by a "sextette" of boys and girls about eight or ten years of age. dressed as farmers. The song, which was of three verses, depicted the woes of the farmer, and. offering the remedy of organization. advised the farmer, in the refrain, to "join the federation". This made a decided hit with the audience and it insistently demanded an encore of the same song, applauding almost as much at the second singing as at the first. Animated Cartoon Another number exciting riotous appreciation was an animated cartoon, accompanied by an explanatory song off stage, relating to the high prices enjoyed by the farmer during war time, and. in the second part, the the shrinkage in his values during "deflation." Two figures on the stage j dressed to represent farmers grew to j illustrate the inflation .and shrank to I show the deflation, during the song, j "This entertainment is a regular feature of our institute," said Ralph McI Minn. "We always try to have an. entertainment given by Miss Buhl's pujpils, charging a small admission, and j it almost pays all expenses of the in1 stitute." Songs by Mrs. E. T.
