(Continued from page one) on a competing basis with other busi ness. The farmer in a large measure has helped make present city life what it is, said Mr. Scarborough, and an attitude of co-operation and help fulness should be manifested in return toward the rural interests. The popu lation ratio has been turned complete ly around, said the speaker, with 70 per cent now in the city, and only 30 per cent residing on the farm. The only hope for agr culture, in the \ opinion of Mr. Scarborough, is to turn it into an asset rather than a present liability, for all is gone once the rural life of the state and nation is goh'e. The farmer must follow the example of the commercial world, he said, he must be up-to-date. A market must be made for his commodities on a sell ing basis that \v.<d insure for him a square deal. In conclusion, Mr. Scarborough spoke of the outstanding advantages of co-operative marketing as the hop.; of raising agricultural standards and conditions. The farmer is entitled to a fair market for the disposition of his cotton and other products and the co operative agency will provide ii. The whole philosophy of farm life must be changed, he said, and this condition must be brought about through co operation and intelligent business methods. Co-operative marketing is purely a merchandising organization, he said, and farmers who have allied themselves in this movement have al ready received relief through the channels of the organization. During the past five-year period, he said, the association of which he is the directing head, has netted its members 21.IS cents per pound for basic middling cottop and he asked wher^ is the farmer outside the organization that can show a similar average for the same period ? Mr. Scarborough’s a-d- dress was filled with helpful informa tion and he was attentively listened to by all present, and well received.

H. Ben nett, president of Lander college, an nounces that recently several friends have advised him that they have writ ten the college in their wills for a to tal of $35,000. In addition to this amount, he says, “Three believers in Christian education have recently tak en annuities with the college for sub stantial sums,” and then the presifient makes this appeal: “Here is a finp way to give without diminishing one’s inconyt. We invite inquiries about this method of saving many thousands of ■dollars from being swallowed up by the inheritance tax. The college pays a liberal interest on all such funds. This methoW means freedoni from risk and worry in changing one’s in vestments and an assured income through life.” ’Doctor Bennett says “a fine start has been made on the college endow ment of $500,000,” and adds: “Safety is in sight if all our subscribers to the endowment keep their promises. We shall much need the help of every on" to make the landing.” lain Thodford'g Bladc-Draufbt for Cotistioatloti. Indlceoaon taf B.UO110BW. o-f4a What Do P. S.
