WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY I, 1922. tri er No doubt many of our friends have hi lYit really provoked with us during ra the pa?t week, for it is provoking to in ring up n number and get no response. th We could not heip it. Our office force so futs been "out of commission." One T! member got sick, the other (only oth- sc er) one had to "stand by." We hope you fa will forgive us, and beer to assure you ar that "No. 1" will be on the active list be from now on. Running in "low gear" e\ :s not very satisfactory, out some- cn times it is the only way to climb a sh steep hill. to We have been trying to be fair to w the fertilizer trust. We try to be lo fair to a "trust," even as we try to sc be fair to an individual. But it seems hi to us to be a very strange, not to say hi suspicion, fact thui the fertilizer peo- tn pie are flooding the country with "lit- st crature" that attempts to slow the fo foolishness of Henry Ford's offer to p< lease Muscle Shoals and run a grout d* nitrate plant there for the production tli oi lertinzer ax. reuuceu price, n xne rci "fertilizer" theory is a lake, why need ai the fertilizer people worry? If the la proposed plan of Ford is to result in a fr mere bagatelle in the great fertilizer fo scheme, why should the fertilizer trust be trouble themselves to fight the pro- ot ject? This right of the fertilizer or- pi ganization looks fishy, honestly it er does. to 1? hi One of our friends, a farmer, as 0h well as a man of other activities, sn id fo to us: "Do you allow subscriptions to the cannery to be paid in product?" to To this we answered: "No, this will not h l>e allowed, or would not be wisr." co N --We wuiit -wvirrt the movement with Cc ready cash and no debts. This will ft necessitate subscribers paying: in the ni money, paying the entire subscription th to stock. We must be in position to fa go to the farmer and make a contract, wi backed by a good bank account, by fa which we will be bound to take the pi, entire output of a given acre or acres, be and at a fixed price. So, you see, we th cannot build a cooperative cannery, or If we did, it would fail before it ever st got under way. We do not intend this sq venture to fail, if nrudence and trood en judgment can prevent such a thing. he Rut we will cooperate with the farmer T1 by agreeing to take his output from ou t-r. agreed acreage at a certain price, de lie will have to agree to furnish us ou '.he entire output at the specified price, nr Our cooperation will go further, for m we purpose aiding in every way pos- l?a ihle, each farmer who will venture on th the one or more acre proposition. The yc gentleman with who m ewlekdcmfw, ?ari gentleman with whom wc talked as- se sured us that he would plant one acre, im That Is the kind of cooperation we will need. ' -'J*a WHY THE FARMERS SHOULD JOIN THE MARKETING ASSOCIATION. Some profess to believe that the farmers should not organize a cooperative marketing association. These individuals contend that there is already too much organization; that organization lowers production and, consequently, raises price arbit.rardy. We are free to admit that it would be better if the world could b* run without a Inbor union, without the organization of the money trust and without i clothing, shoes, dry goods nnd mnnu- m facturing associations. It would be Zjj a beautiful world altogether if ?>*ch * group did unto the other groups what it would have them do to It. Rut nobody save the most irrational dreamer ^ supposes that we have come to the millenium. And, the fact remain* that i everything under the shining sun save , DO the farmer is into some sort of an orW11 ganization. Retail merchants have their association. Brick masons, car- ( penters, plumbers, workmen of all va- ja^ rioties have their union. Why? Is it a social proposition? Not on your , + life. It is a movement in each and every oosc to protest self, get more ( and give less?these are the funda- bul mental, moving conceptions at the bottom of all of them. It would be bet- < ter, perhaps were there none of thes-? doj j ngs. But so long as many groups nbine for mutual protection, it 13 b nifest that any particular group not h organized is the prey of all those ?t are organized. And, /o long as num nature is as it is, selfish, heart- r I s, merciless, it is folly to argue any-1 r ng else. Hardware men have their jociation; so the lumber men; so tho insportation companies. The onlj ng left for the producer to do is to How suit. Of course the farmer s, In a sense, followed suit, or been * *ing to. He has had hi.* grange iance, cotton growers association ^ d other organizations. If he had t, he would long since have been t of the running. But., so far, the v rmers' organizations have net fune>ned to any high degree. This is at- c ibutublc to many causes: the farm- j 's isolation; his lack of education; .? failure to adjust himself lo the pidly ehanging conditions and his l nnto honesty. He has been the goose \ at has been picked bare. It is not very nice in us to say these things, icy may not be true, but we cannot t c it otherwise. It is certainly a ct that those who produce the food id clothing of the world have never * en well clothed themselves, nor ( 'en well fed, save in exceptional unc TKiu i r\ Alt** ic n vonL r him. He must organze. He must t to a position that will enable him sell at a profit, a reasonable profit, is problems are not political but nimercial, economic, financial. The >operative marketing" association is move in these directions. It is a ovement destined to revolutionize e agriculture of the country. If it ils it will fail for the reason that it , ill bo broken do^n, destroyed, by the rmers themselves. They are suscious of it. They tell ue they have ten stung before. We ran only t-ay at unless they do go into some such ganization, they will be stung again, 1 ung to death. The way to get a uare deal in a wicked world, an or- 1 inized world, a selfish world, is to able to demand, not beg, justice, len, when all other organizations go it of busmtas, when supply r.nd ' mand are allowed to function with- 1 it let or hindrance, when the l:on id the lamb lie down together, then ay we say to the farmer: "Disind, the new day is here!" But until at time it will be better to build >ur own fences, set your own gu-.rd id recognize the fact that these is lfishness and greed, plenty of tliiov- , g and lots of knavery in the world.

The farmer has bent his book the burden; he has exacted luboi om his children from the time they ere able to do anything; he has al ( wed them to go without education, ive of the most rudimentary kinds sons and daughters, many of thorn ( wo. fled away from the farm and be- ^ ken themselves to the shop, mill, ore and office. No one blames them r making the venture, for their pros- i *ct on the farm has been groomy in?ed. It is better now, and the contions will rapidly improve. Good i >ads, telephones, daily mail and the ] itomohile havo broken down t.ho i -o l tion. Improved schools, yet far ( om adequate, have helped; the ef- 1 >i*ts of the government to bring in ' ?tter methods of farming?these x nd her things have contributed to ihe :ndual upward climbing of the farm- J His efforts at organization failed ' function largely because he turned s organization into political malines, or designing politicians did it 1 Our cat says if you have any rasperry roots to sell, The Times will dvertise them for you free 0-0 Our cat says "preat minds" may not un in the "same channel," but they un parallel. ? ?

Rear Admiral Mark Bristol, American High Commissioner, is honorii-v chairman of the soeietv In an inaugural address, he cx> >ressed the hope that this movement narked the beginning of an effort hat might result in great good in his part of the world. He said that he association would be dedicated to i study of the art of cultivating riendly relations, social, religious, ommercial and political between inlividuals, communities and nations, t was a big task, he added.

II., Jan. 20.?(By Mail)*?A comparative study of Polynesian art designs Is in progress hare by Miss Ruth H. Greiner, ethnologist and Bishop Museum fellow of Yale university, in connection with the comprehensive endeavors to clear ths, my slot y surrounding the origin of the Polynesian race. Miss' Greiner has completed her study of' Marquesan Island designs and is working now on those of the Hawaiian islands which will be followed by those of the Samoans, Tongans and ^Maoris. Disharmony in Marquesan culture is shewn by their apparent very low standards in certain forms of art and the very high developments in other kindB, she said in comment upon her discoveries. Ix>w standards are found In their textile arts and decorations, but highly developed art was discovered in the designs of ornamental lashings, wood carvings and tattooings. To Rehabilitate Vanishing Hawaiian Race Honolulu, T. H., Dec. 15.?(By Mail).?Financial aid of the federa\ government will be sought in the movement to rehabilitate the vanishing Hawaiian race, according to a decision reached by the Hawaiian ' Homes commission appointed to carry out.the project in accordance with the act of .Congress.

The cost of tho irrigation system is estimated at not less than $3,00.> 000 by Jorgcn Jorgensen commission , engineer. It will necessitate 100,I 000 feet of tunneling through the volcanic structure of Molokni and presents and additional problem to the ' commission, for Jorgensen stated i that the work could be done only by Japanese, and the employment of alien labor by the commission is forf bidden by the homes act. He recommended that the commission should take measures to obtain permission to employ Japanese labor, but the commission has taken no ac: tion, as yet. j Members of the faculty of the University of Hawaii are engaged in , making a survey of marketing and food conditions in the territory for the benefit of the commission and its wards. The survey results will be used as a guide to indicate what u crops short W be raised by the settlers, r Professor El wood Mead, head of the college of agriculture of the University of California, has consented to come to Hawai in May to advise the commission, cooke announced. Dr. Mean has acted as head of the California state farm development 0 board and Cooke said' that he would be able to render valuable assistance in the Hawaiian rehabilitation pros ject. _ 7 Regular Steamship Service to ^ Philadelphia Next Summer Chicago, Jan. 31.?Without waiting for action on the proposed Great 1 Lakes-St. Lawrence deep water route 1 to the sr-a, Chicago will have regular i steamship service to Philadelphia I next summer, according to officials of the Chicago Steamship Company, j Five ocean going steamers have i been purchased to start the line. All j the ships come within the present dimension:, of the Welland canal locks, so they can pass from the lakes to the St. I>awronce. ^ One of the vessels, the George W. Clyde, left Philadelphia for Chicago several weeks ago loaded with sugar, i hut after hcing buffeted by winter t| gales off the Nova Scotian coast, was | caught by i p in Lake St. Clair, above ! Detroit, and is now held there wait-1 J nig for a thaw. The clyde is able to I plough through six inch ice in the : open lakes, but the narrow St. Clair j has been jammed with thick floes. Two other ships, purchased from i the shipping board at Seattle, are outfitting there for the long trip via the Panama canal and the St. I^awrence. The same trip was made last summer hy the passenger steamer Petoskey, fonlVMpHR the Seattb Alaskan service. The Chicago* Steamship company has purchased two other tramp steamer?, one ?f which is now at a Cuban port and the other at Philadelphia. The five ships will make regular ports of call including Detroit, Montreal, Quebec, Coston, New York and . Philadelphia, according to J. C. IIoskins, general manager of the *lin?.
