Jnet now a great deal of conversation, some of formal but a lot more Informal, h heard about the elimination' of the "middleman." He is to be wiped out by the elementary process of co-operative marketing. Producer and con suraer will be brought into direct contact, and the exchange of wires will be effected with eat the intervention of any One of the several entrepreneurs who now intervene at different points along the line, each taking toll as a re ward for his share in the way of concluding the transaction. Nothing could be simpler, when you hear one of its advocates expand on the beauties of co-operative merchandising. Espe cially has the plan proved attractive to the farm er, who-is "sold" on the idea completely. Now and then one meets somebody who has had actual contact with the plan, and know something of its workings, and then a different light begins to shine on the subject' One of the delegates to the meeting of co-operative elevator men, assembled here 1 this week, gives' the ex perience of the group with which he lb asso- elated. It fell shdrt of requirements to the ex tent of 11,500 in stock subscriptions, and has not been able to secure this sum. Consequently it fo required to do business on borrowed capi tal, with the result that its returns are not equal to those whose stock was fully subscribed. No amount of explanation ' is sufficient to fat isfy the complainants, whose situation compels them to patronize the elevator in question. In time its debt will be extinguished, but the les ion i. slowly soaking In. Co-operative marketing requires the Invest ment Of capital. It is possible for farmers to sell their output direct,, but they will find It necessary to "employ a considerable amount of money in carrying on this., work. Consumers who have set up in business for themselves have discovered that, whatever line they.go Into, - capital must be employed In the business. Ben cftts" that flow from co-operation may be se cured In other ways. In the case of "big busi ness," where the stock issue of a ioncern is owned by a large number of shareholders, the enterprise is as truly co-Operstive as any. Uni ted States Steel, for example, is as fair an ex ample of the utility of the principle as is a f'fcochedale" grocery store, for It employs a large amount of capital made up of small sums asiociated for the purpose, just as does the gro cery store, and finally, any benefit In the way of profits accrues to the shareholders in either instance, ; Co-operation in one way or another is the basis f all business, and artificial methods of sustaining prices have invariably proven futile. Elimination of the middleman may be accom plished, but the servles Jie j-enders in the way of bringing buyer and seller together must b per formed by somebody, and so will have1 to be paid for. ' ' We've All Been There ! President-elect Harding's vacation on the gulf coatt cannot be said to havebeen Spent oft a bed of rotes. Chill winds from the north, swooping down on Point Isabel, turned the quiet fishing grounds Into a raging tea, made golf iflipostibie, and maroohed him with nothing to do but to hover close to a wood fire in his cottage. ; , Houses in the far sduth are not made to With stand wintry blasts. Most of them have no plaster, none have furnaces, and many have flsas. A cold wave In that district meant suffer ing, for its coming is so Infrequent that the na tives do not consider if t worth while to prepare against it. ' At length Senator Harding has, escaped from hit virtual exile by automobile, not waiting for the decrepit narrow gauge railway, to be re ; paired. After a twentymile pull over the gumbo roads h has reached the comparatively metro pOlitan eomfdrtt of Brownsville. This touch of misfortune that gave him only two days of tarpon fishing will find our next president many kinsmen1. Almost every one, sometime In his We, has set forth with high hopes for an outing In an out-of-the-way spot, only to yearn amid the discomforts for the peaceful pleasures of his own screened-in front , porch back home. v Cats and Apartment Houses. Another , group of Daniels has come fo judgment In Omaha, a local Jury having held that, apartment house rules to the contrary, keeping a cat is not good reason for ouiting a tenant who is willing to pay his rent We hold nO brief for the cat In particular, or the feline species in general. In fact,' we tan conceive a world happy and contented without any cats at all. We know that Shylock also referred to "a harmless, necOf iary cat," but we never coald agtee with him on the adjectives, Lots of folks " dof however, and lavish much care and affection ' oft catt, and these surely are entitled to consid eration. Apartment home rules are supposed (0 b of a nature that works no hardship on any and provide for the convenience of all, and gen erally, suffer the same 'inclusive infraction that mark! the treatment of all lawtNset tip for the regulation of human conduct. As long as one " . tenant may want . a canary bird another will ' probably want a cat, and the progress around the circle will be continuous. Yet, some plea- apt sort of metjtal gymnastics "may be indulged by trying to imagine what an apartment house would be like if each of the tenants decided oav keeping a cat. Menace of A Beef Shortage. A crisis exists in the agricultural Industry. In a year of plenty the adverse conditions of transportation, marketing and credit have raised the specter of lessened production for the fu ture. While it is improbable that anything ap proaching famine is to be anticipated, the pros perity Of the middle west at least' is menaced by the situation. Those familiar with the cattle industry de clare that a beef shortage that cannot be made up within five years, la threatened. Ruthless restriction wof credit has made it impossible for farmers with their cribs full of Corn to buy cat tle to consume any part of it. Cows and calves that should be kept in the country are chipped off the ranges for slaughter. Farmcrt are ex pected to throw their products on the market and liquidate their old obligations without any but the dimmest assurance that they can get fresh financial assistance. ' The stock yards at Kansas City has received 358,000 calves so far this year, as compared with 325,000 calves last year, and. both these figures are records. Seventy-five per cent of these calves were killed by the packers, and only 25 per cent shipped back to the Country to be fed and raised Into beef animals. Before this tjme, ft is said, 75 per cent of the calves went back to the country. This In itself points to an exhaus tion of the meat supply. Increasing the unfa favorable outlook is the condition that prevents farmers borrowing money with which to con duct the usual feeding operations. This one factor has cut down the purchase, of thin cattle to be fed on corn more than 25 per cent on the Omaha market. .The Old taylhg, "We never miss the water till the well runs dry,M must not be allowed to come ttu in this emergency. The shortage of food during the .war has been a good lesson that has not been altogether forgotten. In an effort to obtain not only financial backing for the live Stock industry, but a stabilization of the market, J. H. Mercer, secretary of the Kan tae Live Stock association, will shortly issue a call for a conference at Kansas City or Chicago. "The live stock industry Is threatened with collapse," he said. "If it goef down it will take a lot of other things down with it. The finan ciers ought to realize that It s a big basic in due try and must be sustained for the good of business generally. , The governor of the Kansas City Reserve bank has sent a letter commending the plan for a conference. The scheme to be outlined there includes provision for a pool by the financial institutions of the country under the provisions of the Edge act to finance the movement of products between this countijy and Europe. Whatever may Come of thit plan, the movement to bring the bankers and the stockmen to gether to discuss the needs Of the industry is a step in the right direction. New Deal in Industry v The industrial porgram announced by the American Federation of Labor hold more than academic interest for the public. Recognition of the principle involved already has proceeded a considerable distance. The so-called Rocke feller plan, put into operation in the Colorado Fuel and Iron company's mines and mills rests on this, and so alto do the various schemes in troduced in different industrial plants in the east. Sale of shares in the corporation to employes has a similar aspect. Shop committees are no novelty in industry. In the printing trades they are almost as old as the art Itself, the "chapel" having existed for cen turies as a medium' for transaction of business between the employer and the employs. Simi larly the interest of the workman In the disposi tion of hit product has been recognized, to the extent that it Is now written Into some of the con tracts made between owners and workmen. Therefore the plan as outlined for the future activity of the great American labor organiza tion may be said to contemplate only the appli cation of fairly well outlined if not completely established principles. Whether it will achieve the peace in industry aimed at is, yet to be determined, but it has the aspect of a step forward. It meets in a rational way the bolshevist proposals, and ought to quiet muctiof the apprehension aroused byfartatiC agitators. Under its Operation, the so-called closed shop will lose much of its terror for the employer, and the conditions of the open shop wilt be leas objectionable to the worker, who will have the feeling of security that comes with knowledge that his Interests are safeguarded through an agency mott potent than his personal effort. Such a plan is indicative of a capacity for improvement on part of the American trade unions. If it cant be Worked out without exhibi tions of selfishness and undue force, such as have accompanied other forward steps in industry, great good ought to follow. But, at Captain Cuttle oracularly remarked, "The moral of this lies In the application of it." Who WiU Take the Twins? Betty and Jimmy the two unwanted children rescued from the cistern id which they were put to perish, are too young to regret the separa tion that faces them. Too little, too, as yet to realize the loss of a mother's love and a father's care, , t ' The big heart of the public is touched by the plight of these waifs. Perhaps the unknown par ents also have their moments of secret sorrow, even though too weak to brave the disgrace and punishment to which their actions would ex pose Iheffl. Kinder than their mother or'father, the charitable organizations of, Omaha Jiave giv en tender care to Betty and Jimmle Wells. If, as seems probable, the twins are to be adopted into separate homes, this Is at least all that humanity could ask. But who will find a place in his home for both of them? One of Governor Miller's first sen-ices to JJew York will be to stop a prize fight If he. Ldoes nothing more his term will bl worth while.

(From the Hoquiam Washlngtonian.) Elmer Gibson, sheriff elebt, has been the victim of a wild and false story circulated during the last few days, starting apparently in nothing more than a baseless rumor. The story ,was to the effect that both Mr. Gibson and Sheriff Jeff Bartelp had been ar rested by federal officers on liquor selling charges, and had been taken to: Tacoma. The story was absolutely without founda tion and of so wild a character as hardly to warrant denial had it not been thit it . had circulated eo widely. , EVERY little helps' these days.

According to this state ment he is deaf and dumb and In addition is a consumptive Without funds. His home Is -in Rhode Island and he Is begging his way to Colo rado In the hope of there finding a climate cure for consumptives. He may or may not be a faker. A crook could hardly hit on an easier, safer method of beating a living. However, let us assume that he is not a faker., but is, as he says, a helpless, moneyletig, deaf and dumb consumptive making his way from Rhode Island to Colorado In search of a cure. Is he on a fool's errand? How much of a chance for life is ha throwing away 7 If he Is on a fool's errand who started' him? ' There are free sanitaria for con sumptives in Rhode Island. The percentage of cures in these is as high as will be found in Colorado. The Colorado climate is better for a consumptive than is that of Rhode Island. But who is going to feed him in Colorado? Colorado charities are overburdened caring for home less', helpless, $ penniless consump tives from other states. Will he beg a living? Colorado is overrun with consumptives reduced to beggary. Will he do light work? There are many applications for every Job that a consumptive in need of funds can m The California state board of health issues a warning card which aays: ' "Tuberculosis demands rest, food, fresh air and peace of mind. Cali fornia has no public Institutions with free care for nonresidents. With funds to live for a year, come, but do not rely on finding light work tor support. Thn state board warns you because it wishes to spare you homesickness and suffering from financial strain." , We recently printed the bitter cry of a consumptiva from Cincinnati, who was dying because when he was discovered to be a consumptive he was sent Into the west without funds or friends. Whatever chance thin other man has for his life h is throwing away. If he left Rhode Island on his own judgment he is a victim of his own lack of information. Had he gone to a nublio library or flnnllpd to the Health department tr to a local tuberculosis society he might have haved his life. A little investigating if, not much to pay for saving one's life. I hope he was not sent west by someone whose judgment ho trusted. , Be Firm With Baby. Mrs. J.

REPLY. While the habit Is not especially significant. It should not be allowed to continue. .Refuse to feed him after 10 p. m.T even though It does cost you one or two nights sleep.
