It THE FOUNDATION OF CREDIT Few people ever stop to think that Insurance is the basis of modern busiThis is true because business activity is predicated upon credit and credit in turn rests upon insurance, particularly fire insurance. When a man gxs to his banker to borrow money on either real estate r merchandise, the latter will be found to insist upon the protection Afforded by a fire insurance policy, ness. otherwise the destruction of the physical basis of the credit would leave the bank without any security for ita money. Ona of tha first things called for by the man who loans money upon improved real estate ia a fire insurance policy to protect his interest in the property. If commodities in storage or in transit were not protected by fire insurance, the merchant, providing he were willing to risk his capital, would be able to operate only upon a seals commensurate with his cash resources. Under such a system, commerce In ita modern proportion would be unknown. ' ' RAILWAYS AND TAXES 'The ' Canadian government is in serious I danger of having ita credit destroyed by it railroad policy. The railways owned by the Dominion of Canada failed in 1921 by about 120,000,000 to earn enough to pay their operating expenses. To this must be added about $100, 000,000 for interest on the investment which was not earned. Therefore, directly and indirectly, government ownership of the railways last year added to the burdens of the Canadian taxpayer around $120,000 GOVERNMENT 000. , group of bees an inner group, well schooled in propaganda, strong in their narrowness and inexorable in the conclusions they drew from their restricted premises. The staff of life, they shouted, is honey, nothing in the world equals it, nothing excels it.- - None but the bees can make it. It ia the best food, the best drink. Let it be the only food and the only drink and let beet never touch other. Then tome genius among them drew which was slogan up the first mouth to mouth among spread from all the bees. Be a Bee, it ran. Make honey, eat honey, drink honey. BE a BEE. A this inner group began to tighten its hold on the docile majority of the bees, more and more their life became restricted to one effort. The beautiful and embellished homes were frownd upon as taking time and energy from the proper task of the bee. Finally the absolutely scientific, timesaving and convenient community flat or hive was developed by the mathematical architects among the bees, the ornamental architects having gone to the discard. Then the iron rulers of thought sought further fields to conquer. Laws were passed prohibiting the eating or drinking of anything but honey, and disfranchising the transgressors. It was by this means that the females who seemed either more capable than the males of restraining their appetites, or more apt at concealing their transgression, came to constitute the ' entire electorate. Then were discussed the problems of unchastity and the family. There was no doubt that the scientific apartment life increased the one and weakened the influence of the ' ; Other. . The propagandists proclaimed anew Think of the time, they said, that is taken from honey making .by love making and marriage and honeymoons and unscientific and individual eggLet's be hatching and bees, they said, and find a solution for these problems." Accordingly the learned in'medicine c ' child-rearin- g. and in biology and embryology and all the kindred sciences were called to find a remedy for all this, and the bees were very advanced in these and all other sciences at that time. As a result was evolved and adopted what then became known as the Bee Flan, and involved the sterilization of females and the acceptance of a general queen mother, and in which the only sop thrown to the disenfranchised males by their sisters was the creation of the drone caste with its immunities and terrible The deficit officially admitted by the Canadian government for 1920 was over $70,000,000 but this did not include interest on a large part of the railways.

McCLURE PETERS. Moral - MARKETING W. Evans, Secretary. W. By The prospects for truck gardeners in Dsvi county at the beginning of the year 1922 were not overly bright. A great many more acres of land would be brought under cultivation on account of the Bonneville Irrigation district. Hay and grain crops can not be profitably raised on this land because of the high cost of the ... water. , . It ii necessary to grow some of the garden crops in order that returns may be realized to pay the additional water tax. To grow the crops with no other source of marketing than the local markets would soon overcrowd these market and bring the price to such a low level that nothing would be realized from the sale of the produce. ... The people, particularly in the south end of the county, realized this condition, and made some efforts to overcome the condition. A committee was appointed to investigate marketing conditions. On investigation they found that produce that ' we can raise here is being shipped right through our territory, farther on, and that a profit is derived by the grower, even though they have to ahip a greater distance. A marketing committee represent-in- g the whoe county was finally appointed with thia object in view, via: To bring- together the producers of Davis county and the various distrib- uting agencies for farm products else- where. At this season of the year the question with the farmer is, what shall I plant that will produce for me a fair return for my labor and money expended ! It is evident that unless some plan or system is adopted, the grower will at harvest time have on his hands that which he has grown, with no one to buy unless it be at a very low figure. In going over the situation the committee finds there are many reliable firms who are handling garden truck and supplying the principal cities. These firms find out where they can have the produce grown and at about what time the various crops will be ready for market and then they can govern themselves accordingly and will assare the dealers that theyran supply them with the necessary products at the time they require them. In handling the situation in this fashion they xair avoid crowdings uf . Some firms wanted just certain va- rieties of vegetables, other would take cars of mixed vegetables, etc. The committee found that our potatoes and onions would be handled by all the companies. The committee finally recommended that the people in the south end-o- the county who desired to specialize particularly in the growing of cantaloupe sign up the number of acres . they wished to grow, with Mr. D. F Ech the Company Smith, representing of Chicago, 111; the same company would also take potatoes and onions. The contract submitted by the Turn-bu- ll Company of San Benito, Tex., was recommended to those who desired to grow several different kinds of vegetables as well as potatoes and onions. The Boyle Commission Co. of Wichita,. Kas., is a distributing agency for potatoes especially. In the north of the county where there is not much garden truck grown this company seems to be the one to grow potatoes and onions for. This same concern will contract for a limited number of acres of cantaloupes (30 acres) as an experiment. These different contracts are now ready for signing. Any person in the county desiring to grow vegetables will do well to read these contracts, and if they then think they can grow the produce wanted by these buyers at a profit, sign up for the number of acres they desire to grow. . Grow the produce right, put a good quality on the market under a special brand, live up to the contracts and create a demand for Davia county produce that will bring a better price ' than other localities. Davis county has the climate, the soil and the water; with an organized effort to exeell Idaho and California it will not be long before the demand for our produce will exceed the supply and Davis county will become one SULLIVAN ELECTRIC-- SUPPLY D.
