It Isn’t eny to group the proportions
of tlio co-operative movement In
short dwiulo those great corporations
have risen out of the yellow gold of
wheat llelds from the orange and
lemon and prune orchurds of the West
from the Southern fields of tobacco
and cotton— corporations whoso mem
hers are the tillers of the field' the
keepers of the orchards whose billion'
dollay business Is niunuged by expert
and controlled by its farmer members
In another ten years the Aiijerlcijfl
farmer will be the merchant prince of
the world The security bock of Ids
mllllon-dolhir enterprises will be the
support of every nmn who tills the soil
and the produce of every acre that
stretches across the plains that He be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific oceans
At last the farmer has perfected
systematic method of collective sell-
ing which gets results' for him He
will never rest until- all his major
products' are handled through his own
sales department

Shaft of Adam nd Eye Made of Fa-
mous Stone to Grace the Estate ef ’ 1
Wealthy America!)
With the completion of a heroic
statue of Adam and Eve hewn by an
eminent sculptor to grace the estate of
wealthy American wlmt Is said to
be the largest block of Carrara marble
ever brought into this country found
expression in one of the oldest nnd
perhaps the most Influential of tbe
arts
Since Itomnn emperors opened the
quarries more than 'two thousand
years ago merchant princes of the
Middle Ages monarch and the mod
ern world imve fashioned their prchi
tectural dreams In “Carrara’’ Qiily lq
Tuscany Italy Is It now to be found lu
great quantities More than one mil-
lion tons yearly are being produced In
the Apunn Alps where there is a
mountain of glistening stone five thou-
sand feet high And despite the fact
that centuries of building and art have
drawn upon these snow-white deposits
for their uncarved beauty- the supply
Is little more than touched-
Michelangelo whose sculptures gyp
among the glories of the renaissance
worked In Carrara marble Cellenl
used It and since before tbe birth of
Christianity the quarries have been
shipping the raatrhless stone to all
parts of the earth It Is to be seen In
the ruins of the Itomnn forum nt the
still well-preserved Arch of Constan-
tine and beneath the great dome of
St Peter’s cathedral In Ron)e
In most places where mnrble de-
posits occur it lins become split up in
the earth and various substances have
filtered into the cracks giving rise to
the colored veins which make It unfit
for statuary use For some mysteri-
ous reason the Carrara marbles' have
remained for the most part free from
such disfiguring accidents In this
condition the ancients found them—
