D. M. Widney, of St. Joe, known all over Indiana as the “the apple king” and father of Noble county’s agricultural agent V. D. Widney, delivered a rousing address to the farmers of Perry township in city hall this city Tharstay night. = . Despite the unfavorable weather there was a- good attendance, the audience being made up of leading farmers who have joined together to protect their interests and promote agricutural pursuits. -.- - ~ Mr. Widney it chairman of a district comprising eihts northern coun‘ies of the state and aftéer listening 10 him five minutes it became ap: narent to all that he is the right man {or the place. . o It developed that the Noble county ‘ederation of_farmers associations has about 700 members and is growing rapidly, twenty new members being ~cquired hére at Thursday night's ineeting, raising the membership of Jderry township's organization to ~round the fifty mask while: her cuota is placed at ninety. The state ‘sderation has about 40,000 members i.nd is rapidly growing.. The annual vues are $3 one dollar going into the tywnship fund, one to the county and cne dollar to the state federation. Jacob Beckner, chairman. of the I"erry . township assoclation, called the meeting to order with J. Warren
Jloore in the secretary's station. Mr, leckner after a few remarks introcuced W. H. Favinger, chairman of the county federation. Mr. Favinger vrent into considerable- detail in ex»laining the objects of the farmers’ crganizations’ which have grown so vtrong in lowa, Illinois and Indiana. “The federation of farmers,” said Mr. Favinger, “seeks to construct and not ¢estroy. Cooperation is the purpose, The labor unions insist upon -the justice of collective bargaining and vé desire the same right to cooperate in - buying and selling our own produets.” .
Mr. Favinger explained that com--I:ittees had been appointed to contract for pure seed, for shipping farm products ahd live stock. - o
In the course of his address Mr. Widney said the farmers of Indiana saved $300,000 in the purchase of binder twine alome through the efforts of the state organization. - The speaker denounced the Indiana tax law and hoped to haye it set aside in the courts. “If justice cannot be secured in the courts,” declared the speaker, “we will seek it at the polls in the coming election.” . M. Widney pointed out that thirough the action of the state tax commission some farmers are taxed 100 caats on the dollar while other are forced to pay 140 cents. - i
“The state tax board,” said Mr. Widney, “fixed a very reasouable tax on Indiana corporations and snaked the farmer. Reason for this is sympathy the present state administration has for the corporate interests. Scan your tickets at the coming election and spot the corporation candidates. 1 am =a republican but I cannot support my party nominees if it presents an array ¢t such cerporation talent as we supperted in the last election.” -
The farmers’ federations are non partisan in politics according to Mrs \W.dney but the memebrship is not scing to be led blindly by the managirs of either party in this state. ‘ They are going to support such candidates,” said the speaker, “who are ciipetent to discharge the duties of the office to which they aspire and are honest enough to give all the psople a square deal.”' _ - Sy
. Mr. Widney said the farmer was forced to take $2.26 & bushel for his wheat at that price of one hundred patriotism” and the federal grain corp:ration made a clean profit on the whwheat at that price of one hundred and fifty million dollars and is now troubled to know what to do with the yast sum. “They want to give it to thé Armenians,” said _ the speaker, “aad I hope they will. ‘T am most willing to donate my portion for so good & burposs.” -t e . The speaker touched on the question ¢ good m&.’fl@ ‘deplored the att.mpt of the cemten manufacturers ) rob the people at the tune of about _L} & barrel in the price. . -~ * Mr. Widney gave the present mem<rship of the farmers’ organization in /.

_ SPECIAL SESSION DEMANDED Andltor of State Declares He Wlll Not Draw Warrants on General Fund in Viclation of Law. - Unless there is a special session ot the Indiana legislature within the next 90 days, to appropriate additional funds for the maintenance of state institutions, the institutions will be compelled to elose, it was declared in a statement issued by Otto L Klaug, auditor of state. e . By the last of next month, the auditor asserted in his statement, at least- three of the institutions will have exhausted their appropriations and by the end of June a majority of them will be out of funds. He added that when the appropriations are expected, he will refuse to draw warrants on the general fund, to pay institutional bills i “There is already a deficit of $300,00¢ with the 1920 maintenance appropriations exhausted. - |
It Makes a Difference. ' Many senators have beeh gallantIy fighting for the past eight months to keep this country from becoming entangled in European affairs, but Thursday they voted to amend- the treaty with a declaration in favor of. making Ireland a republic. If Great Britian were to pass a resolution that the Philippines be given their independence: or that Alaska should le aslowed "to establish "a republic of her own, the very senators that stuck their noses into the affairs of Great Britian would rise up and offer to fight, bleed and die to prevent so great an outrage wupon our = sacred rights.—Columbia City Post. ' - Wheat Leoks Poor. -J. J.- Forker, well known farmer, is quoted by the Kendalville News Sun as follows: . . “It seéems the fly got busy last fall and ravaged many a wheat field. In fact 1 have not seen a good looking picce of wheat this year, and it appears as though there will be a repetition. of 1912 when the Noble county wheat crop was an utter failure, Rye looks mighty good right now, and of course there is some chance of the wheat maturing much better than is now anticipated, depending largely on the future weather.” :
‘ Bars the Dark Horse. ‘ All candidates for nomination for county office must have their declarations with the county clerk not later than April 2nd so. that they may get their names on the county ballot. So by that time the people will know exactly who ‘is in the race, and can make their selections from the list. The necessity of thus filing his declaration thirty days before the primary sets aside the chance of there being some dark horse candidate sprung at the last moment when the voter has not had a chance to investigate his qualifications. - . » Wet and DPry Fight On. i - Ralph N. Smith former prosecuting attorney of Laporte county, and well known in Ligonier, recently filed his declaration as a candidate for the democratic congressional nomination in the Thirteenth district. Smith won ‘state-wide prominence in the fight to ‘make Indiana a dry state. Friday ‘announcement was made that H. C. Helper, representative in the state legislature from St. Joseph county, would be Smith’s opponent in the May primary. Hepler, it is said, will be the primary candidate of }he wets. R P —— i ; % Bryan Not Candldate. - William J. Bryan announced in a New York address the other day that he is not a candidate for office. William Randolph Hearst, it is alleged, would like to geét into the race for the presidency, probably with a platform favoring a societ government in the United States and a Hearst - protectorate for Mexico. Bryan is a patroit, Hearst a demagogue and sneak.

~ PLAIN WORDS BY CAMP - Tells Hearers What United States Owes the World And Must Pay ~ln his address her Hon. Joseph G. Camp told some plain facts, He declared that the United States emerged from the world war, with the undoubted leadership of the world, financially and industrially, and for ‘that reason the responsibility fell on us to take up the leadership of the world morally and spiritually as well. To do less would mean that our young men had made the supreme sacrifice in vain. He based his plea for the adoption of the league of nations on three great reasons, the underlying principle of which i 3 that we do not-own anything ~that we are only stewards, and that our province is to s 0 use the wealth of the world that It may result in its betterment,. God, the individual, and sociéty are the three factors that make up owur existence, he said. He illustrated the idea of stewardship by refering to John D. Rockerfeler whose income is 360,000,000 a year from pro erty which he does not “own.” In lhpg world war crises, soclety steps in and takes from Mr. Rockefeller $38.000,000 in the way of income tax, for the benefit of society, the- speaker declared. e
