ATRIOTISM
Outline of a Method for Securing Com
munity Co-operation in Business
and Social Affairs. 3
A scheme for the organizatiod® of
rural communities for both business
and social purposes is worked out in
an article which appears in the Year
book ‘of the Department of Agziculture.
The scheme calls for ten committees,
five of which are to deal with business
needs and five with social needs. Every
member of the organization is to serve
on some one of these committees. In
addition there is to be a central or
executive committee composed of the
President of the organization, its Sec
retary, its Treasurer and the chairman
of the ten other committees. This cen-
tral body is to direct the general policy
of the organiaztion, raise all funds and
control their expenditures. The com-
mittees that are to deal with the busi-
ness interests of the community are =

P
follows: 7
1. Committee on farm production.
2. Committee on marketing.
3. Committee on securing farm sup-
plies.
4. Committee on farm finance and
accounting. 3
5. Committee on
and transportation.
Similarly the five committees that
attend to the community’s social in-
terests will deal with:
Education.
Sanitation.
1.ccreation.
Econ ification.
IFousehold economies,
The work of most cf these commit.
tees is indicated sufiiciently clearly by
their titles; for example, the commit-
tce on production can cdo much good by
improving the breeds of live stock in
a community through co-operative pur-
chases of purebred males. It can en-
courage the formation of corn, poultry,
pigs, cattle, canning and gardening
clubs which have already demonstrat-
ed their value in the sections where
they have been established; and it
can carry on useful siudies of the iype
of agriculture best fitted to local con.
ditions. '
In the same way the committee on
marketing can secure the standardiza-
tion of the community’s products and
thus obtain better prices than are pos-
sible when nondescript goods are
dumped upon the market. The com-
mittee can also search out the best
markets, make contracts on a large
scale which will be more favorable
than any individual can secure for him-
self, and in many other ways econom-
ize in the selling of the community’s
goods. Even if co-operative marketing
iz not actually resorted to, the informa-
tion which the committee collects can

Just as the committee on marketing
can facilitate selling, the committee
on farm supplies can economize in
buying. Farmers are warned, however,
not to underestimate the cost of run-
ning a store or commercial agency and
not to overestimate the saving which
this can effect. The co-operative
society, of course, does away with the
necessity of the store’s making a profit,
but somebody must manage the store
and that somebody must be paid for
Lis t‘me. His salary, therefore, corres-
ponds in a way to the ordinary store's
profit, and it is not always possible
to sccure a good man for less than he
would be able to‘meke in business for
himself. There are, however, several
methods of purchasing farm supplies
co-operatively, which will be found to
be of acvantage. The simplest is the
joint order, in which a group of farm-
ers can buy a given article in large
quantities, thereby effecting a consider-
able saving in the expense of handling
commissions, etc. Sometimes when
this method is adopted a warehouse is
added which is owned or rented oco-
c-eratively, and in which the goods are
c -rod until the associated purchasers
nad them, :
If these two methods have been tried
and found successful, it may be de
sirzble to carry them out to their logi-
cal develonment and conduct a co-
operative store which renders the same
service to its custcmers that a private
entorprise would. This, however, in-
evitably leads to complications and
should only be undertaken after some
experience with. simpler methods of
co-oneraticn.
With the committee on farm finance
and accounting the first duty is to as
certain what farm enterprises can
safely be financed. This is only pos-
sible when accurate accounts are kept
and carefully analyzed. After this has

{zed self-help, not appeals to get Gove
ernment help.
Just as the five business committees
are to grapple with the fundamental
problems of producing and selling in
their various forms, the five social com-
mittees should direct their efforts to
the improvements of living conditions
in the country. {
To increase the farmer's income is
not ihe only thing needed to make
rural life what it should be. As a mat-
ter of fact, says this article, it is the
prosperous farmer who is more in-
clined to move to town than his less
fortunate neighbor. Having accumue |
lated a competence he wishes to enjoy
it, and there are five principal reasons
which lead him to believe that he can
do this better in the city; first, there
are usually better facilities for educat-
ing his children; second, the sanitary
conditions’ are frequently much better
in town, and the time does not seem
to be far distant when the cities: will
be actually .more ‘healthful ;than the
country... Again, household conven-
fences such as hot and cold water,
heating and lighting systems, etc., are
ly, there is'more opportunity for recre-
ation in the ‘city and frequently,
strange as it,may appear, mote to ap-
peal to the sense of beauty that is in-
herent in practically every man. :
Co-operation on the part eof rural
communities can do as much to alter
these conditions as it can ‘to increase
the average cash income. The commit-
tess that have these matters in charge
should, therefore, be regarded as quite
as important as those which deal with
business questions, and they should
receive the same support from the en-
tire community which they are en-
deavoring to benefit. "The result will
be a community spirit which, in its
way, is capable of producing as valu-
able results as the nagiongl spirit. In
fact, says the article in closing, ‘Pat-
riotism, like charity, begins at home—
that is, in the neighborhood.”
TAELE SIRUP FROM APPLES
Produce Valuable By-Product.
Following = extensive experiments
the head of the fruit and vegetable
utilization laboratory of the Depart- |
ment of Agriculture has applied for a
public service patent covering the mak-
ing of a new form of table sirup from
apple juice. This patent will make
the discovery, which the specialists
believe will: be of great value to all
apple growers as a means of utilizing
their culls and excess apples, common
property of any cider mill in the
United States which wishes to manu-
facture and sell apple cider sirup.
! The new sirup, one gallon of which
is made from seven gallons or ordinary
cider, is a clear ruby or amber colored
sirup of about the consistency of cane

The process for making the sirup
calls for the addition to'a cider mill of
a filter press and open kettles or some
other concentrating apparatus. The
process is described as fol:ows: The

The cider is then heated to boiling and
filtered through a filter press, an es-
sential feature of the process. The re-
sultant liquid is then evaporated either
in continuous evaporators or open ket-
tles, just as ordinary cane or sorghum
sirup is treated. It then is cooled and
allowed to stand for a short time,
which causes the lime and acids to
form small crystals of calcium malate.
The sirup is then re- filtered through
the filter press, which removes the
crystals of calcium malate and leaves
a sirup with practically the same basic
composition as ordinary cane sirup.
Its flavor, however, and appearance are
distinctive.
Calcium malate, the by-product, is
is a substance used in medicine and at
present selling for $2 per pound. It is
believed that if calcium malate can be
produced in this way cheaply and in
large quantities, it can be made com-
mercially useful in new ways, possibly
