FREE PORTS
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRO
PRIATIONS.
By Peter Radford.
This nation is now entering upon
an era of marine development. The
wreckage of European commerce has
drifted to our shores and the world
war is making unprecedented de
mands for the products of farm and
factory. In transportation facilities
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag
is seldom seen in foreign ports. If
onr government would only divert the
energy we have displayed in conquer
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of the sea, a foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the ocean’s
highways.
This article will be confined to a
discussion of our ports for the pro
ducts of the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 51 ports, of which
41 are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated over $51,000,
000 for Improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise levies
a toll of approximately $50,000,000
annually In wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered
The latter item should be lifted off
the backs of the farmer of this na
tion and this can be done by Congress
directing Its appropriations to ports
that axe free where vessels can tie up
to a wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. It takes
out the unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for centuries laid a heavy hand
upon commerce No movement is so
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that of a free port
and none can be more easily and ef
fectively aecured
THE VITAL PROBLEM OF
AGRICULTURE
By Peter Radford.
Tiler® is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
af agriculture will not be attained
•ntil It is solved, for a market
is as neceeaary for the producer
aa land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti
tutions have spent $180,000,000 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants, but
very little attention and less money
baa been given to the marketing side
of agriculture
The problem is a monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until it gets within the grasp or a
glgantto organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience -isdom of the aj:e
upon it. It is a problem which tTie
farmers, merchants, bankers, editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers’ Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods of seed selection to
the most systematic and profitable
plans of marketing, but does not be
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and com
mercial agencies seeking to help us,
continue to give us their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
influence should be extended to the
marketing side of our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu
facturing by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan
tile enterprises by the merchants load
ing their shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul
ture by glutting the market with a
surplus of products.
FOR SUCCESSFUL DAIRYING
Quality Sets Price on Milk, Cream
and Butter.
Where whole milk Is delivered to
the creamery in a sweet condition and
separated there, the subject of grading '
is unheard of, because the resulting
cream is all of a good uniform qual
ity.
The policy of paying a patron just
as much for a pound of butter fat In
bad cream as in good cream is surely
unjust to the patron who thinks well
enough of his product and himself to
tnkp care of his cream and keep It
clean. A number of creameries In
several states have attempted to put
into effect a gr ding system and pays
patrons according to quality The plan
has been quite successful in some
cases However, its success would
tic assured were it adopted more uni
versally.
Kian r-or 'oracling breams.
The plan in genera! is to grade
cream as it arrive* at the creamery
into three grades according to quality,
and pa> a different itrico for each
grade. Grade one to be clean, sweet
cream, and commanding front three
to five cents more per pound of but
ter fat than grade two, which is but
moderately sour but clean, of good
odor and flavor, and free from foreign
matter. Such creameries reject grade
three cream or buy it at a great reduc
tion and churn out the fat to be sold
at renovating plants where it is used
in the manufacture of renovated but
ter. It. often brings about half as
much as grade one.
Dirty Milk Under Ban.
The above plan should be encour
aged. as under the old system of ac
cepting all cream at the same price, a
premium is being placed on dirty
; and careless dairy practice. Unless
we do something of this sort the qual
ity of the hotter made is bound to be
i come gradually poorer. Where qual
| ity is lacking prices are sure to go
! down. Then some good old prophet
i will announce that there is no money
; in the dairy business, but he will like
| ly fail to qualify the statement by
making it, “There is no money in the
dirty and careless dairy business.”
