WFRSTFR PARMCDQ 1

HEAR PRESIDENT OF STATE LEAGUE By William r. sanborn. The farmers of Webster township met for organization at the Friend's church in Webster on Wednesday evening, and Vere addressed by John G. Brown, of Monon, president of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations. Mr. Brown did not reach Webster until 8:45, but the crowd came early and the church was comfortably filled by 7:30. Because of the attendance of the state president, the Webster folks had invited the farmers of Wayne county to be present and

the chairman of the meeting announced that fully half of the audience represented various parts of the county,

outside of Webster, the smallest town, ship on the county map.

On receipt of a phone message that Mr. Brown, though late, would be with them during the evening, the work

of organization began, preceded by two musical numbers by teachers in

the Webster school. Miss Madge

Guthrie contributed a piano solo, which was followed by a song by Miss

Clara Newsom. 'Where the West Begins," who sang "Ole Virginy" in rebponse to an encore. A. L. Baldwin addressed the meeting and stated that he believed in or

ganization and hoped that it was the feeling of thoso present that Webster should be represented in the feder

ation. The result of the discussion

was the election of officers as fol

lows: President, A. L. Baldwin; vice president, L. C. Farmer; secretary,

Herbert Crowe; treasurer, Luther

King. It was agreed that the officers

elect should form the committee on

by-laws and that a meeting should

be held in Webster next Monday eve

ning to hear the report of the com

mittee, and for the enrollment of

members. Educational in Spirit. Mr. Brown prefaced his remarks by stating that he was a plain farmer, had farmed all his life and that his !) bons and daughters all live on farms, and love farm life. He maintained that the federation had no intention of usurping or interfering with the orderly process of business in any line. The great work of these farm associations was educational, neighborly, and for the promotion of mutual interests and the making of farm life attractive to the boys. He cited why farm boys are leaving heme, of the growth of urban population, which is absorbing the best elemnts of our own rural homes. Not Fighting Anybody. The speaker interestingly described the meetings in Washington where Mr. Hoover had discussed food problems with representative of the great commercial and industrial organizations, prior to the fixing of the price of wheat, and the minimum on hogs. Here were some of the brainiest and highest paid men in the country, practically in conflict with the farmers, men desiring to keep the prices on all foods at the lowest level, and mostly also intent on getting the highest possible dollar; for their own labor and products. It was maintained at these conferences that the laboring

man would not stand for a 10 or li cent loaf, indeed one labor leader stated that he might call a strike if; bread was fixed at a high level. And ; so t!ie fight went on, conducted by unorganized farmers, at their own expense, and here was conceived the need for an organization which should stand for something, should know all that is vital to know about farm production and costs, and which shall , later, perhaps, be able to say to the pucker: ' These hogs cost so much to raise, i hey are worth so much here in the vards today, the price should be thus imd so, and by getting together on a fair basis, the tremendous losses so often incurring to farmers, may be eliminated and a basis established, fair alike to producer, consumer and packer." The Cost of Wool. With reference to the cost of the wool in a $75 suit at present raw wool prices the speaker said: "The wool in this suit now nets the farmer $3. In pie-war times the same amount of wool went into a $25 suit and the farmer received $1.50 for it. The farmer find3 that everything he buys has a fixed price; he takes it or leaves it. But in no circumstance does the farmer set a price on a dolj lar's worth of his surplus. "Speculators manipulate the price of his grain from season to season and from day to day. He has no stable market i'or anything. His butter, poultry, eggs, cream, fruit, live stock, evcrv thing indeed in which he is vitally interested as the producer, is subject to every market fluctuation and to the manipulation of so many midJIe men that however little the farmer may receive, the benefits are rarelv ever passed on to the consumer in a corresponding ratio." In proof of this he cited a number of instances of in

flated prices after the farmer and fruit grower had parted with his produc

tion. It was an interest'ng occasion, this meeting at Webster, and had a tend

ency to bring the farmers into more

friendly and closer relations, isot :or the control of the affairs of the country, but for the benefit of all and a Bquare deal for the tillers of the soil.

President Wilson today set aside

Thursday, Nov. 27, as Thanksgiving day. The proclamation Is as follows: The season of the year has again arrived when the people of the United States are accustomed to unite in giving thanks to Almighty God for the blessings which he has conferred upon our country during the twelve months that have passed. A year ago our people poured out their hearts In praise and thanksgiving that through Divine aid the right was victorious and peace had come to the nations which had so courageously struggled in defense of human liberty and justice. Now that the stern task is ended and the fruits of achievement are ours we look forward with confidence to the dawn of an era where the sacrifices of the nations will find recompense in a world of peace. But to attain the consummation of the Ereat work to which the American people devoted their manhood and the vast resources of their country, they should, as they give thanks to God. reconsecrate themselves to those principles of right which triumphed through His merciful goodness. Our gratitude can find no more perfect expression than to bulwark with loyalty and patriotism those principles for which the free peoples of the earth fought and died.

During the past year we have had much to make us grateful. In spite, of the confusion in our economic life resulting from the war we hae prospered. Our harvests have been -plentiful and of our abundance we have been able to render succor to less favored nations. Our democracy remains unshaken in a world torn with political and social unrest. Our traditional ideals are still our guides in the path of progress and civilization. These great blessings, vouchsafed to us, for which we devotedly give thanks, should arouse us to a fuller sense of our duty to ourselves and to mankind to see to it that nothing we may do shall mar the completeness of the victory which we helped to win. No selfish purpose animated us in becoming participants in the world war, and with a like spirit of unselfishness we should strive to air by our example and by our co-operation in realizing the enduring welfare of all peoples and in bringing into a world ruled by friendship and good will. Therefore, I.Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, hereby designate Thursday, the 27th day of No ember, next, for observance1

as a day of thanksgiving and prayer g

Vinol contains the very elements needed to replace weakness with strength, just as it did for this New York man. "I am 74 years of age and got into a weak, run-down condition as a result of the grippe. Our drugpst suggested Vinol to build me up and I noticed an improvement soon after taking it, and it has restored my strength so f can now do a good day's work. My wife lias also taken Vinol for a run-down condition with splendid results." NOTE: Your leading druggist has for many years specially recommended Vinol because he knows there is nothing better than this famous Corl Liver and Iron Tonic

to create strength and build one up. Th I
