Farming On A Business Basis
(The 'Morning Poet,' London )
The British farmer is organizing,
Se is organizing politically, aro our
politicians will discover in good time;
but, what is far more important, he is
organizing industrially. In another
column we publish the that of a series
of interviews with the leaders of title
great new movement, whish is going
on silently, unobserved, and is yet of
such tremeudrrne importance to the
,nation. The first to be interviewed ie
Mr. Nugent Harris, the General Sec-
retary of the Agriculture) Orgauiz*•
thus Society, a diestple of Sir Horace
Piunkett's and a worker whose orio-
le** energy and organizing power have
made him one of the principal factors
in the/ rpread of co-operation among
our farmers. But be has not worked
alone; be has been assisted by a hand
of lsndownere, ebief among them Mr,
R. A. Yerburgb, M. P., who have been
the pioneers of the movement ;'it is
important to note at the outset that
this propaganda has been l*rgely the
work of three landowners, who have
worked altogether outside politics for
the benefit of agriculture. Aud we
look upon so -operation as a movement
which may unite—and ie ;heady unit-
ing—the landowner, the farmer, the
emall•holder, and even the agricultur•
a1 laborer ---In a guild or union of
agriculture mo etrong as to become a
great national force. We venture to
Nay thl>tt agricultural co -o enation,
which is a non-political movement.
will place agriculture, beyond the at-
tacks of the politicians, and will re -
*tore it to its place as the greatest in-
dustry of the country, Agriculture
has hitherto been helplese, because
every farmer has acted for himself as
an isolated individual ; that is to say
ue has bought for himself and sold for
himself, He has bought at retail
prices and sold at wholesale prices.
By organization he will be able to buy
Jit wholesale prices and sell at retail
pricer.
This is the day of organization. As
Mr. Nugent Barrio pointe out, our im-
port trade, which is managed by great
joint stock eompaniee, is like a scienti-
fic water supply drawing millions of
gallons from a huge and distant catch-
ment area and passing the water on to
the consumer through thousands of
pipes.' On the other hand, 'the Eug-
tish farmer is like the old-fashioned
well ; bis small, disorganized supply is
almost disregarded.' the catchment
area of thle pipe supply is in Denmark,
Holland, the United States, the Ar-
gentine, Autralia, Canada, New Zeal-
and. In some of these countries farm-
ing organized upon co-operative prin-
ciples, and a very large proportion of
our agricultural imports are produced
co-operatively. Where co-operation
is not in vogue our competitors pro -
dude upon a vastscale and frequently
on a joint-stock tiystem. Produce so
produced can be carefully graded and
put on the market in vast quantities , ;
au even quality. It is, therefore, con-
venient for our shopkeepers to handle
and popnlsr with the public, We
might say that the reaources of mod-
ern science and orgsnieetion—co-oper•
atiye societies, joint-stock companies,
great railway and shipping interests,
and huge importing concerns,allunited
to place foreign and Colonial agricul-
atural produce on our home market in
the cheapest and most efficient man-
ner possible. •

On Tuesday night, May fi, the town
council of Listowel provisionally paw-
ed a by-law authorising a loan of
t, } $10,000 to ..the Dominion Flour Mill
Oranpeny, Limited, repayable with
interest in ten years. Mr. John Hodge
of Brantford is secretary of the com-
pany, and Mr. Richard Thompeon, of
the Pen -Angle people, Paris is Keel -
dent. The By-law will be voted upon
on June 1. The company proposes to
spend at the outs.t 25,000 in factory
equipment for the manufacture of
butter and milk powder. To commerce
with the factory will employ 11 bands
of one ahift, 22 hands of two sbifte,
the plant being kept in operation day
and night and having a capacity to
handle 10 tons of milk a day. In a
short time they plan to enlarge the
factory handling 40 or 190 tons per day
and employing possibly 35 or 40 hands.
Representatives of the company state
that they will pay from I5 to 20 per
cent, more for the walk than is now
paid by the cheese factories, of which
,there are a great number in this
eeetion.
As a dairying dietrict the vicinity
about Listowel is exceptionally good
and another company which is still
consideringlocating a condensed milk
factory at this point is the Libby, Mc-
Neill at Libby people, of Chicago, who
have been in correspondence 'with
Mayor Olinie for a considerable time.
If the proposed By-law goes through,
however, it is hardly likely the Libby
people will take action.

Raspberries are next in importance.
There is not so much tedious work con -

strawberries, and the profits are not
quite so large. Set the plants in the
spring in rows six feet apart and three
feet apart in the rows. This gives
plenty of room for cultivating, which
must be done thoroughly throughout
the growing season. Some experts dc
not stake raspberries, ns is the custom
with most growers. When the tips are
about two feet high they are pinched
back. This causes laterals to be sent
out along the stents. in the spring al
trimming time these laterals are cut
back so as to leave,.about six inches.

Troops at Colorado Mines.
We are told that every coal camp in
the Skate of Colorado is now in a
ferment of rebellion. The miners bas e
been on strike, and the militia called
out to preserve order have apparently
proved unable to handle the situation,
and on appeal from the Governor of
the State, Federal troops have been
ordered to the scene. President Wil
son, in sending the troops, makes it
very plain that he is taking no side in
the miners' dispute, but is aiming
simply to preserve peace and order,
The miners, it is claimed, are armed
with bigh•power rifles, and the out-
look is a gloomy one. The Governor's
proclamation has 'virtually placed the
State under material law, and a claeh
between the troops and the miners
seems very probable, with the odds, of
course, all against the men. Which
le in the right, the miners or their
employer*? We do not know the
facte, and we cannot say ; but all will
agree that Much scenes of savagery as
are involved in shooting down a mob
of half-armen men, and unarmed wo•
men and children, is a grave reflection
upon our civilization. We fear that
only too often men are goaded to des.
peration by oppression and inhuman
treatment, and then when human
nature at last revolts in the only way
that it knows, we call in the aid of
modern guns to "keep order". But
whoever heard of Federal troops being
called out to compel the Steel Trust or
the Standard Oil to refrain from
wronging their fellows P In many

to protect property rather than to pro
