THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM

Warehouses and Storage Credits Are Part of Plan to Aid Farmers

Bernard M. Baruch has set forth in a report to the Kansas state board of agriculture a comprehensive plan for lifting American agriculture out of its present slough of despond and establishing it on a sound basis. The report was made public recently. Its aim is to place the farmer as a producer on an equality with the man who buys his output, instead of leaving him, as he now is, at the mercy of the market. For achieving this Baruch outlines a system of warehousing and financing which would make it unnecessary for the farmer to sell on a glutted market and would tide him over periods of scarce money. Baruch's study of the subject was made at the request of the Kansas fetate board of agriculture, which recognized that his experience as chairman of the war industries board and fit the rffl O. frm f Arpn flfi woll ne hie business career, fitted him for constructive analysis of the situation The subject of relief for agriculture has lately been before a conference of governors in Harrisburg, Pa., and committees of the United States senate. In his preliminary investigations Baruch appeared personally several times before the Kansas board of agriculture, and later he conducted an exhaustive research into experiments in the field. The cornerstone of Baruch's plan , is a string or storage warehouses for farm products at primary points to carry the peak load in the distribution of cotton, wool, tobacco, grain and other commodities. These are to be built preferably by private capital, but in any condition are to be under state or federal supervision. With such warehouses at his command the farmer, instead of throwing his output on the market when both The Farm By WILLIAM
