ODD TOWN IN IOWA
Farmers Consolidate Interests,
Transact Business Profitably.
FOUNDED AND RUN BY THEM.
Though Built Fourtaan Yeara Ago,
Whan Railroad Waa Conatructed,
Farnald Haa Population of Only 100,
but Air of Mutual Intareat Would
Plaaaa Any Ona.
Dea Moines. !«.—Out on the prairies
of Iowa la one of the most novel towns
of the country. There U no bickering
between townspeople and rural resi
dents, as la often the case. The farm
er* for miles around feel perfectly free
to go to town without wearing starch
ed shirts and collars. There la an air
of mutual Interest between town and
country which would gladden the heart
of any rural life expert The reason
for this Is that the town la owned by
the farmers themselves.
■ _ When he goes to town to buy a bar of
' soap or a new plow the farmer buys of
himself, or rather he la a partner In the
store. When he goes to the elevator he
sells to his company the grain he has
brought in. Perhaps his uext stop will
be at a bank owned and managed by
the farmers themselves.
The town la named Fernnid. All of
its business enterprises are owned by
farmers living within a radius of three
or four mlk~ Though built fourteen
years ago, when the railroad was built.
Feruald has a population of only 101
and probably will not grow much
larger In the years to come, because of
the nearness of numerous other towns.
But this does not mean that Fernald
does not expect to grow and prosper,
for the farsigbted farmers who owi.
the town do practically all of their
trading there instead of patronizing
mall order houses or buying in neigh
boring towns. In fact, the town is Just
a big social center for the whole com
munity.
The town was founded by the farm
ers In order to avoid making long hauls
In delivering crops to the railroad. A
line elevator wns built shortly after
the town was founded, but it was not
until about two years ago that It was
purchased by a group of farmers op
erating under the name of the Farm
ers' Oraln company, n. S. Fleagle, the
farmer who put through the deal, was
made manager of the elevator. The in
vestment proved a wise one. for in the
first year under the new management
the elevator paid a profit of 95 per cent
on the $5,000 capital.
The Farmers' Lumber company was
organized by four farmers with a cap
italization of $0,400. Mr. Fleagle also
manages the affairs of this company
and its $10,000 stock. Another enter
prise founded by the farmers wbb the
Farmers' Co-operative Mercantile com
pany. After a brief period of competi
tion the rival mercantile store was
compelled to close its doors, leaving the
management of the town and its busi
ness affairs entirely iu the hands of
the farmers themselves.
i The Milwaukee, again to the Front'
i TTirwugh the extensile tiuUn-lii.e Electrifications of its
uhiuiituin divisions, tlie " Milwaukee" has again Iiiade good
its claim to being the Pio net-r Line. This colossal undertak
ing ha» attracted the wor Id wide attention and wonderfully
lncreooed the safety and efficiency of the road. For addi
