She spoke o! the thrill o! arriving in Bombay early in the morning, India a country with the highest mountains, the greatest plains and the hottest climate. India is a country o! contrasts. We have the beautiful architec- ture of the cities and the dirty hovels in the country. We have the highly educated professors and the beggars. The children are starved and often maimned in order to solicit sympathy ig begging especially from the white race. WIRE PROMOTION: D.

Everyone knows what hap- pens. Those nickels go to pay the butcher, the baker, and the can- dlestick maker. They provide the purchasing power- that makes the wheels go round. And let us not despise the importance of a nickel a pound. Think of a five pound chicken, two hundred of them on one farm, and even two thousand f armers in a - county, each with that many chickens. That's a hundred thousand dollars more a year the farmers in that county have to spend on food and clothes, and health services and educa- tion, on supplies and services that make a people and build a corn- munity. ,roup received five cents a pound nore for their chickens. Every roup doesn't make five cents îore a pound. Some groups îight receive only one cent more. But it's truc one county did re- cive five cents a pound more for hiekens and more for eggs too. t's true that farmers have made extra earnings by marketing their milk co-operatively, their pota- toes, their apples, their livestock, their wool, their honey. Many are making more without harm to the just livelihood of anyone. It's true that farmers are sav- ing money on the purchase of some of their supplies. You might hardly believe that saît in hun- dred pound bags has been found to sell in a few places as high as 50 per cent more than a reason- able retail price. When such a condition exists, farmers organ- ize their own business to bring prices to a proper level. Mind you, these extremely unfavoraole prices do not exist everywhere or on every product or supply. But there are many fields where farm families can improve their in- comes through co-operative mar- keting or purchasing. Co-operatives Folks used to say co-operatives wouldn't work. The story'has changed. They are working now in hundreds of places. No mir- acles. No overnight growth. Said The better class have good schools, drinking fountains and sanitation, but the outcasts are not permitted to attend the schools or use the drinking fountains. Ahl are undernourished and many are starving. The president voiced the thanks of the meeting to Mrs. 1 Miller for her fine address. I7 ELECTRIC.
