F. of A. Fieldman
Tells of Tom,
Dick and Harry
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
Some twenty years ago I read
a book called "The Wealth of
Nations," by Adam Smith and I
am reminded of the saying that
there is nothing new under the
sun.
This book deals' with the work-
ings' of trade in society and the
writer used a very simple imag-
inary society.
In this world of Smith's there
were only three families living on
an island which was quite small
yet, oddly enough, had opposite
seasons at the opposite ends'. Let's
call these families Tom, Dick'and
Harry.
Tom lived in the north and was
buSy growing his crops and had
plenty to eat. Dick lived in the
Middle so never had a really good
crop season but never had a real-
ly bad' winter so had a fairly bad
time the year round. Harry was
having winter in the south and
was busy making clothing for
the year. He was living on what
he had produced the year before
and was hoping it would last until
the next crop year.
Finally the three got together
and decided that none were hav-
ing a really good living. Tom and
Harry had a good living for op-
posite halves of the year and. bad
the other half due to storage pro-
blems. Dick, in the middle never
had it very good or very, bad but
still not satisfactory. They decid-
ed that Dick should give up' far-
ming and when Tom had summer
Dick would transport food to Har-
ry; on the return journey he took
clothing from Harry to Tom. All
produce was divided equally among
the three.'
This arrangement worked very
well until Dick decided' to keep
out a little extra when taking food
to Harry thereby inducing Harry
to provide more clothing as pay-
ment. On the return journey Dick
kept out extra clothing for his
family thereby inducing Tom to
supply more food for his share
clothing. Soon Tom and Harry
were having a hard time while
Dick the trader became wealthy.
There seems to be general agree-
ment that this trader is still op-
erating. Now Tom is the farmer
while Harry is the factory work-
er and Dick is the host of 'busi-
nesses in 'between.
How can we control this situa-
tion? Simply 'by getting into this
business and controlling the hand-
ling of our products. The answer
is much closer than most of us
realize. It is as close as your local
so-op. Maybe you are doing this
very thing, 'Do you have C.I.L.
Insurance? Do you have fire in-
surance with a Farm Mutual? Do
you patronize your local Co-op
feed mill, egg-grading station, fer-,
tilizer plant, grocery store or coni-
munity credit union? If you su-
port any of these organizations you
are controlling this trader, Dick.

Horses are not forgotten in the Clinton area. This sturdy pair
however, have long since, passed away, and leave enly memories
of the "`good old days". They belonged to A, J. McMurray, sec-
retary of the Huron Central Agricultural Society and 50
years ago, on April 4, 1907, they placed second in their class at
the Clinton Spring Show, Mr. MoMurray recalls that if one of
the fine animals had not picked up a slight hesitation in gait
a few days before the Show, the judge remarked that/the team
would certainly have come first. At the end' of next month the
1957 Spring Show will be held, and everyone will have a chance
to view good horseflesh, and the best the area has to offer in
beef, dairy, and all-purpose cattle, swine, sheep, and poultry.
