Wise, Mgr., Farm Dept, 317 HURON STREET TOLEDO, OHIO 1IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN AGRICULTURAL REVIEW LABOR IS DETERMINED TO ENLIST SUPPORT OF FARMER ACTION SUGGESTS DESIRE TO ESTABLISH JOINT POLI TICAL CONTROL, PROBABLY THROUGH EXISTING AGEN CIESCANADIANS WATCH GOVEANMENT EXPERIMENT IN COLLECTIVE MARKETING OF WHEAT INTENTLY. I (Business Feature Service.) 'Samuel Gompers and the conserva tive national leaders of labor gath ered around him are apparently de termined to enlist the farmer's sup port hi projecting Industrial, social and political reforms. Labor appeals to the farmer as a manual toiler op pressed by "autocratic control and the monopolistic manipulation of the nation's raw supplies." Recognizing the farmer's instinctive dislike of violence and his distrust of radical teachings and leadership, the recent labor conference sought to remove the stigma of radicalism, perhaps unjust ly applied, and without discrimina tion, by voting to combat all I. W. W. and Bolshevist tendencies in the labor movement. Organized labor and the farmer have this point In common: Until labor became effectively organized, neither had means of determining the price paid for his product or services in the open market, or of regulating the supply. Neither could pass the increased cost of production and more living on to the consumer. Nowxla bpr is one step ahead of the farmer, who is making up lost time by or ganizing rapidly on an Independent basis. But tho familiar cleavage be tween farmer and laborer was evi dent In the farmers' response to Gom pers" cordial invitation. Union for the attainment of certain ends is not impossible, but few signs point to general amalgamation for ends either political or non-political. The Canadian government, in un dertaking to market the Dominion wheat crop, presents an outstanding example of collective marketing through a central agency with all its reputed saving. Cnnadlans are watching the experiment intently. Canadian millers express some anx iety, fearing that exports across the line and from seaboard will deplete nome supplies and materially increase the price of wheat. If the Canadian government enters the American mar ket, obtaining higher prices for the Dominion farmers than it has guar anteed, the demonstration will be Informing, even while it cuts the pre mium now paid to the American farmer for hard sprjing wheat. The Saskatchewan Co-operative Elevator company, representing 20, 000 farmers, which recently attacked the grain exchange, is exceedingly anxious to have the government suc ceed with Its experiment In national collective marketing. The company believes that a permanent system of national marketing may evolve. Pro fessional grain operators, think the company, are wholly superfluous and parasitic. The Saskatchewan Co-operative Elevator company, founded in 1911 with 40 elevators, now owns 316 elevators, which last year han dled more than 20,000,000 bushels at a profit exceeding $100,000. . The Business Outlook INDUSTRY BREATHES FREELY AGAIN, FOLLOWING RESUMP TION OF COAL MININO RAILROAD EXECUTIVES SOON TO LAUNCH PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN. (Business Feature Service.) " Actual resumption of coal mining in all important districts, following the compromise agreement effected by the government, conveys much comforting assurance. Restrictions hare been lifted nnd industry is breathing freely, and addressing it self to the important task, of recoup ing losses In production incident to the 'Strike. Everywhere the process of accumulating fresh coal reserves against the needs of winter has be gun. Agencies of distribution are agai permitted to function normally. The miners evidently pin their hope to the investigations of the govern ment commission, believing these will lead t further wage Increases. The initial offer of 14 per cent evoked no enthusiasm, and production during thfe fourth week of the strike, follow ing the offer, declined nearly four per-cent.. An Increased price for coal would certainly reflect a further wage increase. The railroad executives are about to launch their widely heralded cam paign of advertising to inform the public of the true factors operative in the railroad problem and of proper remedial measures. All railroad authorities regard legislation to in sure abundant earnings, which shall make railroad securitreu attractive, us tho prime essential. Freight traf fic in thlB country exceeded 400,000, 000,000 ton-miles last year. In view of this rapid Increase over previous years, and the further Increaso sure to materialize hi the immediate fu ture, it has become evident that only large replacements and continued ex pansion will provide adequate trans portation facilities In recent years the market for1 new railroad stocks has been practically nil, and older Issues of well estab lished lines have sunk to a low point The roads have been forced to rely upon the sale of mortgage bonds and short-term notes.

WASTE HEAT OF GAS ENGINE UTILIZED The London Tin.es reports the in vention by an Englishman of a new form of prime mover, consisting of combined internal combustion (gas or oil) and steam engine. With the ordinary gas or oil engine one 'of the greatest mechanical problems is the removal of the heat generated by the combustion of the fuel, and in the majority ' cases tl.'s heat jst or wasted in the sense that it is not converted into useful work. In the new invention arrangement. are made to utilize the waste heai for the generation of steam; and the piston, after being driven in one direction by gas or oil, is driven in the other by' steam. By this means the inventor hopes to increase the fuel efficiency at le-st 20 per cent., and to increase the elasticity of the engine by storing steam in a reser- oir so as to sustain for a short time a large overload which would or Jinarily stop the engine.
