Ws.Mnsloa I 'w HJiU Owlu IW.
Washington. June 7. tSi"iil
TrlrKriin.) Co-operative associa
tion will le urged in the forthcom
ing report of the joint commission
in agricultural inquiry at an impor
tant mean f relief for agricultural
producer. Hy this mean they can,
the commission believe, "hasten the
suudarduaiioii of agricultural prod
ucts, improve distributive processes
ami reduce their runts.
C hairman Anderson, in outlining
the portion of Che report (Irating with
this kature of the inquiry. said:
"We have found that one of the
trouble! of agriculture is that id
protltu't 'generally tome into the
market in mull lot of ungraded, tin
ktamhrdixed raw material for which
the producer h akkumed no respon
sibly. The farmer lias thought in
terms of individual production rather
than in terms of service, marketing
and distribution. Until he consid
ers production in its relation to con
sumers' demand and satisfaction, lie
is unlikely to materially improve his
condition.
Standardising Ignored.
''For the most part, the agricul
tural producers have left to others
the selection, grading, standardizing
and assembling of products, as well
as the risks involved in marketing.
The vast bulk of agricultural prod
ucts must be transported to large
centers for assembling, grading and
distributing.
"With the better organizations and
standardization of farm production,
the organization of farmers' eo-oper-nsoriations,
the evolution of
grades more accurately reflecting the
qulitirs of farm products in rela
tion to ue, the establishment of
lunreittration warehouses at points
vtiilmi the areas of production, is
suing receipts or certificates which
clearly indicate such grades and
guarantee the physical protection and
quality ot product, it should tie pos
sible to d-velop a system of com
munity cuhanges through which
these commodities may re soij ana
under which such products will move
directly from areas of production to
po'it of use under prior sale, with
out the necetity of previous iiupcc
Hon and with the asiuraurc of de
livery of a product by grade con
firming to the tiers' or consumer'
requirements.
"In this way." said Chairman An-
drr.on, "the many dikagreements
which develop between producers,
shippers and receivers, which are
,iow the cause of a lack of mutual
confidence, can be eliminated, with
the consequent development of more
efficient aird economic marketing and
distribution.
Eliminate Haste,
"Economies can be effected and
waste can be eliminated through the
establishment of qualified and au
thorized agencies to arbitrate dis
agreements between shippers and re
ceivers as to value, condition, kind,
grade and quantity of commodities.
"Much can be accomplished in the
direction of economic distribution by
a more systematic utilization of ware
houses to absorb temporary surplus
and distribute more evenly in re
sponse to consuming demand."
On the subject of country elevator
charges as an item of expense in
marketing grain, the report will show
that the average buying margin of
the country elevator may be assumed
to have been 5 cents per bushel in
1912-13, 6 cents in 1915-16, and 13
cents in 1920-21. It will also show
that the best figures it was able to
obtain indicate that transportation
represented in 1914 approximately 6
per ce.nt of the sales price of grain
and in 1921 approximately 10 per
cent. The average buying margin
may be expected to return to about 6
cents per bushel with the ccyiletion
of the price cycle and the establish
ment of a more definitely permanent
price level.

Baric
With Vengeance, iWlarei
George Woodruff Sayi
Pre m Adi "Dig Brtha."
Aberdeen, S, I)., June Coiupe
tit ion in bukinrss is coming back
into the world with a vcngeajice and
the merchant, manufacturer or bank
er who ejects to get ahead from
this time on must realize that lie
must fight his way upward, declared
George Woodmtl of Chicago, vice
president of the National bank of
the Republic, in an address before
the South Dakota Bankers' associa
tion here today,
"Advertising a bank." was the sub
ject of Mr. Woodrulf's address.
"Advertising," he asserted, "is the
most effective of all weapons in the
fight for business, and among the
various kinds of advertising news
paper advertising is unquestionably
the 'Big Bertha' of them all.
"The big idea," said Mr. Wood
ruff, spelling the word 'idea, '.is to
accomplish four things. These four
things may be easily remembered
because, written in acrostic style,
they spell the word 'idea'.
The four words for which the
letters stand, he said, are: Interest,
desire, enthusiasm and action.
"First you must secure interest,"
he continued. 'Tour advertisement
must be so well laid out, so attrac
tively worded, so compelling in ap
pearance, that it will secure the
readers' interest.
Secondly, vou must create in the
mind of your prospect the desire
to patronize your bank and make
use o( the service it offers. You
must show how and why it is ad
visable from the readers' standpoint
to save money.
"Granting that your advertise
ment has aroused interest and cre
ated desire,' if it is to secure maxi
mum results, must breathe and in
spire enthusiasm. It must arouse
your reading public to such a de
gree of enthusiasm -over saving
money, over paying bills by check or
protecting their valuables by a
safety deposit box. that thev will be
ready to put their desire into ac
tion. Before your advertisement
may be considered a success, it must
compel action.
Newspaper advertising must be
supported by more direct advertis
ing," he continued. This, he said,
can be done through house organs.
personal appeal letters, blotters, fold
ers, booklets, calendars and novelties.
Bankers who do not believe that
advertising pays are steadily retiring
to tne background," Mr. Woodruff
continued: "This is surely not to the
disadvantage of ' our country, for
bank publicity is daily turning spend
ers into savers and creating that spirit
of universal thrift upon which the
future economic stability of America
must necessarily be based."

Common Sense
Ever Slap Your Wife With a Care
less Remark?
Said a little woman recently, "I
have always done everything I could
to spur my husband on to greater
things, and no one appreciates the
hard work and personal effert he has
made, under difficulty, to get on in
public work more than I, and have
always praised him and shown other
wise my appreciation, hut I had the
slap of my life when he announced
the other day:
"Mrs. So and So is a mighty fine
little woman. Her face is an inspira
tion to me when I preach. I just
love to watch her changing expres
sion, and note the interest she takes
in my words."
Now it seems that this good wife,
whose face had reddened under the
imaginary "slap," had been all that
an appreciative wife should be, and
was as inspirationally delighted with
her husband's address at the moment
in question as any other hearer, per
haps more so.
She had supposed that her pres
ence was helping him to rise to the
situation and putting the fervor into
his speech, but in that thoughtless
remark every bit of joy of the oc
casion was lost.
The strange part of it all is, that
this dense man does not realize how
stupid it is of any man, who wants
praise and inspiration at home, to'
acknowledge so naively that he is so
charmed by a woman he had never
seen .before, because she took an in
terest in his words.

Blue Sky Law and
Lay Blame fur Failure
on Dt'itiorrat.
Lincoln. June 7."(Sieeial Tele
Him ) liuy Touvelle, head of the
tale bureau of sriuriiirs, has tender
ed hi resignation to Governor Mc
Kelvie to takr elicit a soon the
governor can find a successor. Tou
velle will enter private law prac
tice in Lincoln.
Touvelle was appointed a legal ad
viser to the Mate railway commu
nion under the Neville administration,
At that time the railway commission
had jurisdiction over issuance uf per
mits to stock clhng corporations.
After the creation of the code de
partment Toufclle was appointed
head of the new bureau of securities
and with the aid of the McKelvie ad
ministration attempted to pass a blue
iky law with an air tight structure
through the legislature of 1919. How
ever, the administration was Mocked
in the attempt and an unsatisfactory
blue sky law was passed. At the
last session Touvelle, with the aid of
the administration. nucrerdod in put
ting a new blue sky bill through the
legislature, and as a result not a
single failure has been recorded of
ny corporation granted stock sell
ing permits under the new law.
"If Uie democrats insist in attempt
ing to lay blame for the failure of
stock selling corporation at the
door of the administration in the
coming campaign, I will be found on
the job again pointing out that a
vast majority of failures were due to
the lax laws of the Neville adminis
tration, which permitted almost any
sort of a corporation to sell stock in
Nebraska, while the present adminis
tration has done everything possible
to put in an air tight law and finally
succeeded," Touvelle said.
