I A' comprehensive p'an for ren ting rid or that niurh berated feature, the "Middleman." has leon announced !y the promoters of a movement embracing fur mors in Pennsylvania and New York. They supply tho Now York produce market. I'luus for a central receiviug station and cold storage, etc., are carefully outlined. A convention just held at Newburgh, N. Y., considered throwing out the middleman from he dairy trade, the producers to sell directly through co-opera tive associations. Itismoro than strange that the American farmer has been so slow to adopt co operative meth ods. A recent magazine article tells how the Eastern Counties Association of England sells for 55 pounds seed mixtures that tho farmers had to pay 70 pounds for outside. A farmer walked nto the office of the lloreford Society one day. lie was afraid that they had made a mistake in their remittance to him for pears. fhey had given him 2S shillings per 100 weight, where previously he had sold them for three shill ings. - In tho Teme valley m England, cooperative associations took up ho matter of transportation, and 'ot motor wagons started that lauled freight for threo shillings a ton that previously had cost the farmers five shillings. Franco is a great country for co operative work among farm ers. There are CO.000 members of these societies in the province ot Hnttauy alone. They buy fertilizers, tools, and seed at low rates, sell all products, secure low rates for insurance, get more favorable freight rates, etc. Tho Anglo Saxon temperament has a certain independence that does not take kindly to co-opera tion. particularly among a class of people having tendencies of isolation like farmers. Our English cousins have simi lar tendencies, although cooper ative movements have made ir greater advance there than hera. Uut English experts feel that British agriculture is falling be hiud the Continent, because the farmers don't cooperte any bet ter. The Consumer of course loot: a askance at any movement to e:i able the producer to get higher prices. He need never fear. No co (p'jrdtivo farm association can ever get any hold in competition with tho independent producer until it beats out the independent producer ou prices and quality. Patterson's Run. Sept. 111 would like to cor rect a mistake in last week's paper concerting a bad case of diphtheria in the home of Bert Wilson. I think a case of ton silitis should be distinguished from that of diphtheria. The taxpayers of this township have had enough of expense, and that the health officers o.'

Give the Poultry a Special Finish Before Marketing. A cood many dollars are lost every year by fanners because they send their poultry to market In poor condi tion as regards flesh. On many faniiB tho practice Is to ship every winter several crates of llve poultry, younK and old, and In most cases the speci mens sold are picked up off the rant?e and no attention Is paid to the condi tion of fleHh. Tho farmer can fatten his poultry cheaper than any one elae. under the sun and la most canes over a pound of weight can be added to every fowl sold at a cost of not more than five cents. The extra flush added ould make tho entire consignment sell for one or two cents a pouna more than It otherwise would, at the lowest estimate. All the fowls that are to bo sold should be selected three weeks before the tlmo they are to bo shipped and placed In separate quarters, suBiiestH Tho Farmer. They should be given a reasonably sized pen Indoors and a fair sized yard outside, where t'icy may exercise somewhat In fair weath er. They should bo fed threo times a day, morning, noon and night The morning and noon feeds may consist of one lurt corn meal, ono part ground oaU with tho hulls sifted out, one part bran and a third of a part of high grado beef scraps. This may bo mixed with wa'er or milk, though If milk Is used not quite so much beef scraps will be needed. The night feed should bo of cracked corn. Fresh wa ter should bo given to drink and a box of grit and ono of charcoal should be placed where the fowls can reach It at any time. No more should be fed at each meal than the birds will eat up at one feed and any that Is left over after 13 minutes should bo taken away and tho feeding troughs removed. Colony Houses. We got some piano boxes for the bouses, using the largest side for the bottom. We nailed up the top with boards, hung a home-made door to bottom of box and our house was done. These houses serve the pur pose for growing chicks as well as those we use to buy already made. They require so little work and are much cheaper. M. iM. Newland, In the Epilomist Cost of Eggs. What does it cost you to produce your eggs? Do you know? I'rof. Graham of the Storrs (Conn.) experi ment station says: "I have been much surprised at the data received from several of the experiment sta tions regarding the cost of egg pro duction. In some cases I find cgg3 have cost as high as 18 cents a dozen and some as low as 8 cents a dozen, including labor. I find that, speaking generally, the larger the rango the less food was required; in fact, where birds had free range the cost was any where from 8 to 10 cents, and in cases where the birds were on limited range the cost was under twelve cents. This has forced me to the conclusion that it Is very hard work for a man to run an intensive poultry plant and compete with the farmer in egg pro duction." A Country Doctor's Record. Dr. James Morris, who was one of the oldest medical practitioners In Scotland, has Just died at Dunferm line. When he celebrated his Jubilee as a dix-tor some ten years ago he made this statement: "During my fifty years In practice I have attended 50,000 patients, administered chloro form 10,000 tlmos with absolute Im munity from fatal results, had 5,000 births (1,000 consecutive cases with out a death), mado about 1,000,000 visits and travelled about 500,000 miles." Not a bad record for a conn' trv medical man. Westminster Gazette. To Avoid Serious Results. After eating a hearty evening meal Edith, aged two and a half years, was taken from the table to be washed. "You can wash me and rock me," she said, "but don't bend me." The De lineator. The only louse the poultrymnn can afford to have around is the dead louse. See that that Is the only kind you keep. In making their report at Chambersburg last week, the Franklin county Grand Jury said that a separate residence for the Sheriff and his family would be exceptionally desirable, as it would isolate the prisoners, avoid ! tlTo daily contact of the Sheriff's family and prisoners, which is now wholly unavoidable, and would further insure health, aid comfort to the executive.
