Casper is not the only city in the country suf- ferng from lack of sufficient housing. There are many more. The subject is receiving attention fiom the federal government down to the several families that form the population of the most for- Igin_tank town. = Those cities and towns which have made. pro- gress have not been the ones that have procrasti- nated in the hope that outside philanthropists-would céme along and supply the need without local ef- = There is no royal road to obtain the things a cSmmunity needs. The Lord sticks to the old plan . dF helping those who help themselves. > If Casper folks are to get in out of the wet, CAsper folks themselves, must look after the job. =; It simply means a marshaling of the forces of frfiance, energy and the spirit to do—and it is done? = There is no other way. No one is going to ar- mye in town with a. large bankroll, toss it over on’ your desk and tell you to go to it. = That sort of thing is not done these days in the: Isgst house-building circles. = It happened in the day of fairies, of Cinderella and Aladdin, But since Aladdin don’t occur any more. ° = Regular house building requires building ma- tZrial, labor, money and a lot of things. But most @& all it takes the will to do. The inspiration of ex- @mple helps a whole lot. The determihation to own # home really means another house and another leome. For the few obstacles that stand in the way the realization of such an ambition can be kicked Gut of the way if the determination is strong hough. = Did you ever know of any feasonable thing Weing denied a person who really and truly went ter it with his coat off and his sleeves rolled up? = That's the only way to tackle this housing prop- esition. Everybody, the big and the little, the rich and the pdor. It is a regular shirt-sleeves job. = When are you—all of you—going to ctase just thinking about it and begin to act? > Of course, you understand, a house to live in is Got built ‘in twenty-four hours. You know that fact as well as we do. But for fear the further fact Ifis escaped your attention, we will remind you that 4 the days are growing mighty short. = There is no better, motto to paste in your hat, | wail up on your wall, bind about your neck ahd ep constantly before your eyes than—“Do It Mow.” LYING ABOUT THE PRODUCT. Since the day the war broke out in Europe vir- wool has advanced in price something like 250 jer cent. In the same six eventful years shoddy Brace na Tis increased in price all the way from 400 to 800 fier cent. It is not about the price of these two commo- s that complaint is being lodged; but it is about it respective amounts of these two articles used im the manufacture of clothing to be sold to “the public. Indictment, too, is also found against the manufacturer who uses either all shoddy, or nearly and sells it for ‘‘virgin wool” or “all wool’ so | Gilled. This is a fraud upon the wool industry and Gibel upon the innocent sheep. = It was not enough that cheaply produced for- a@gn wools by the millions of pounds were admit- téd duty free at our ports of entry, following the dlése of the war, to absorb the American market render the home product a drug at the usual s#les ‘points, but we must suffer the further calam- i of importation of shiploads of rags from Ger- y and elsewhere to be used in the manufacture of cloth and clothing and sold for “‘all wool.” = Thanks to Mr. Wilson and Mr. Underwood and | te Democratic party there is no duty on wool or manufactured wool to protect the grower of | wool, but there ‘is just enough duty to discourage the foreign manufacturer of clothing, which pro- \téets the American maker of clothes to a degree, © It is the crime of selling foreign rags made into cfth and clothing, said to be all wool, that peeves Ut wool grower and the purchaser of clothing. | = The American congiess must simply compel the meénufactyrer to.be honest and label his goods for exactly what they are. If he makes his cloth out J one | too well known to permit Mr. Gompers or anyone broke his lamp it} f dog hair, oakum old rags or what not, sti it eS product.

The mills, workshops, factories, locomotive and car building and repair shops are all operating with less number of em- ployes. Mr. Samuel Gompers and other labor leaders attempted to make political capital out of the re- duction of laboring forces and the fact that there were thousands of idle men in the great industrial centers. © The facts were too plain and the real reasons else to get away with their political theories. The curtailment of forces is purely economical and hasn’t a thing to do with politics, In the first place cancellation of orders for man- ufactured goods was one of the principal reasons. Another important one to large employers of labor, was, that necessity no longer exists to accept any sort of an employe to do the work of skilled labor Execulives not only desired but’ saw the urgent de- mand to get their working forces back to pre-war efficiency, energy and discipline. ‘ In the automobile centers alone, working forces have been cut more than 100,000 men. Among the men dismissed were thousands of competent shop workers who left the railroads during the war to do more essential and higher paid work in muni- tions plants and truck and airplane factories: Gradually, inferior men are being released and railroad officials anticipate that most of their old shopmen will shortly be back at their lathes. ; It has long been the opinion of executives that there was a disposition among shop employes and hourly basis for the purpose of being able to reap the extra pay for overtime work: This has been very true in many lines. Releasing inefficient employes is simply the be- ginning of the restoration of efficiency in the in- dustrial life of the country. With industrial concerns it is a matter of eco- nomic life or death, and since railroads no longer have a guarantee of profits from the government, but must suffer losses themselves if inefficiency in émployes is the cause, it behooves them also to get back to the old order at once. \ Sooner or later, all employment must expect to be worked over and undergo a weeding out process. - “The victory sof Richard P. Exnst, Gemblican: over J. C. W. Beckham, Democrat, for United States senator, ih Kentucky, was not the least of party victories at the recent election. The state gave Cox a majority oyer Harding of a little over 3,000, Expst’s majority was better than 7,000. ~ CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING. Producers of crops, instead of. standing about complaining’ of hard luck, would do well to take a leaf out of the book of experience of the California producers and modify the plans to suit their busi- ness and conditions which govern it in their locality. Given the products, the main ingredients in the California plan are intelligence, energy and co- operation. More than half the farmers of the state sell their products through co-operative marketing associations, There are some twenty-five active associations which in some cases control as high as 90 per cen! of their particular crop and which range inactivity from mere sales agencies to organizations that pack, distribute and advertise their products and even possess lumber mills to make their own containers. The Fruit Growers’ Exchange, which marketed $50,000,000 of citrus fruit last year from the or- chards of 11,000 members, handling 70 per cent | of the California orange and lemon crop, is the most | important of the associations. It not only sells fruit, but marmalade and fruit juices as well, and through a subsidiary concern secures containers and packing materials. Other associations ‘to be enumerated, number of members, volume of business and proportion of | crop controlled are, a raisin association, 10,000 members, $33,000,000, 85 per cent; a prune and apricot association, 10,800 members, $22,000,- i H | 000, 80 per cent; a peach growers’ association, | { i 7,500 members, $13,000,000, 75 per cent; al- mond growers, 3,578 members, $5,000,000, 8 per cent. A poultry association conducted on the same plan marketed 9,000,000 dozen eggs last year, an a hog raisers’ association embracing a single valley sold $1,447,449 worth of hogs in 1919, And so with other products all along the line, the co-operative idea is employed and it has made California not only rich, but famous; | The general idea prevailed that when prohibi- tion came in the grape-growing industry would be wiped off the earth. It has not proyed to be the | case. California has increased her yineyard areas | and: also her tonnage of raisins produced and sold. | The increase of land yalues for the growing of | the several crops, tells the story. Vineyards from $300 in 1918 to $1,000 an acre in 1920, for prune | growing from $500 to $750 in the same period. Land for other products shows a corresponding increase. ' ;& Organization has done this thing for California. 1 All sections cannot do what California has done, but ‘Ys they can do a whole lot better than they are doing |”) at present by adopting some of the plans that Cali- | a fornia has employed so successfully.
