The Farmers Trouble.
had no business with money and that
the community would be better off
without successful farmers, but that
time has passed and inits stead has
developed the true idea that the
more successful the farmer the more
successful the buisness man. It is
this idea that is carrying the Coop
erative Marketing Associations to
farmers and not the idea so general
among the farmers that someone is
trying to take everything they have.
Farmers need these organizations.
The world sees it. The government
has recognized it by offering to loan
them money. The State has recog
nized it by conducting investigating
and putting the extension depart

Once we heard of a story of ai
old maid who was so particular that
she would not drink water at the
table from the pitchr that others
drank from or use a glass cleaned
by another, -but would clean her
glass and pitcher, fill them with
water and put them at her place
each meal and after she would go
out the servant would go in and
take a drink from her glass and
refill it. This is almost repeated
by the farmer with the selling of
his farm crops. He is so particu

has been duped many times and is in

true that generally speaking there is
a strong prejudice among farmers
against the towns and business • men,
especially time merchants and banks.
This is entirely uncalled for and mis
placed. The towrts and business
men realize that the more money thte
farmer makes the more money they
can make. The time merchant re
alizes that the. more money the far
mer makes the more he can sell him

that the more the farmer makes the

a real and sincere motive on the part
of business men to assist the farmers
on a better day.You may consider it
selfish, if you wish and even though
selfish it may be. it should be appre

your idea of liberty is to enslave

and half clothed, to makes crops the
yorld cannot do without and saying
nothing for your labor, not get
enough money for it to pay your fer

may became millionaires. Is it pos
sible that your idea of liberty would
require you to live a life of hard la
bor and half care, always being
broke, and at the same time let the
other fellow who buys and handles
, your product, live easy, well eared

spare, his wife and children free
from the cares qf drudgery of home
and enjoying the life that God, gave,
them? Is it possible that you think
your liberty requires you to to toil
labor the whole year through while
those who handle your crops take va- j
cations at the seashore or the moun- i
tains? We don’t believe there is' a
farmer in Orange County who enter-j
tains such an idea. Then why
shoulden‘t you have these liberties'
and successes as' much so as the. fel- 1

product? Why shouldn’t the far
mers get together and handle their
oyn crops and get this additional '

conveniences in their homes and take I
summer vacations.
The biggest trouble we know is
there are so many farmers who are [
afraid that some one is trying to nut 1
something over on him, trying to
take what he has not away from him
and in fact we some times wonder if |
they go out on moonshiny nights for j
ear that their shadow will ask a to-
, ken of them.The lack of confidence
some farmers have in their fellow
man is enough to make life a living-
hell for them. How they get any
comfort out of life is more than we
can see. They surely can’t expect
the world to hand them a living on a
silver yaiter. They have been wait

the rainbow for the bag of gold, are

questions seared upon the souls of
men by the experiences of recent
of religious speculation, it may be
pointed out that the effects of the
causes that came into operation with
the invasion of Belgium have been
joined by terrible currents flowing
from other qpuses and that the
scourging of humanity whether
one employ that term in a literal or
a figurative sense—has but little
abated since the conclusion of actual
hostilities on a large scale in Europe.
The storm center of death and an
guish has indeed moved into the east
and the far east. Warfare has
been continuous. Famine and pes-
tilence have made desolate district
after. A few weeks ago we were
trying to realize the horror of the
remote China famine. Now 20 mil
lions are affected by the famine in
chronicles of crime and insanity.
