FARMERS CALL ON PRESIDENT HARDING TO URGE REDUCTION OF FREIGHT RATES

President Harding, indicated by arrow, and group of members of National Farmers' union at the White House. A. C Davis, secretary of the National Farmers' union, and other members of the union called on President Harding at the White Housa recently to urge him to aid in obtaining reduction of excessive freight rates on farm Droducts. The union has members in thirty-six states. Every one of these states was represented at the meeting with the nresident.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

While it is true that the American Farm Bureau is the largest of the group of farm organizations, it is also the youngest, and is now the most aggressive. It has a large income, has more men on its payrolls than we can enumerate, has all the expense and machinery of a vast organization in the incubating stage. It has made great progress with its 'plans" and should soon begin to fution. The! iJ .u m -r u,"uu" cuu " cumius aiOng. But Secretary Wallace evidently be lieves that in union is strength. He' recognizes the fact that "too many cooks spoil the broth." but doesn't say it just that way, but says it just as pointedly in remarks made before a meeting of the executive committee of the American farm federation. The publicity office of that organization quotes him as follows: Secretary Wallace's Views. "The farmers of the United States must now prepare to take care of themselves in their own fight. They must not continue to complain. They must gather the facts and present them from the economic point of view. They must set up more businesslike organizations than ever before. I nope tnat the various iarm groups will get together in a working alliance. Agriculture is too big to be misrepresented by quarreling. If organized farmers will fortify themselves with facts and figures they will get somewhere. Opinions are nothing, unless backed up by facts." Indiana Donates 44 Cars Indiana and Minnesota each donated 44 cars of corn to famine relief, which emphasizes the fact that Minnesota now raises a lot of corn, while a few years ago it was considered almost exclusively a spring wheat state. South Dakota is also a "com state" as shown .by its donation of 31 cars. North Dakota imports its corn and is not included in the ten gift corn states. . Illinois gave the greatest number of cars, 147, and Colorado the nrarin rt t f;x c.in0i , o three hiiiir. r

Comparative Live Stock Prices The weekly "average" prices on ! live stock at Chicago for the week ' ending Saturday, April 23, with comparisons, follow: Cattle. $8.10; hogs. $8.30; sheep, $6.90; lambs, $9.90. j These figures show slight losses on I hogs and cattle, and an advance of 60 cents on sheep and lambs for the week. For the tam dates one year ago the average prices were: Cattle, $11.90; hogs, $15.05; sheep, $14.90; lambs, $19.30. Hogs averaged $20.80! for the same week in 1919. Chicago received 60,000 cattle, 141,000 hog3, and 93,000 sheep last week. The estimated average -weight of hogs last week fell five pounds under that of the previous week, at 235 pounds. SEEK ADVANCEMENT OF PURE BRED STOCK BREEDING IN WAYNE CENTER VI LLE, Ind., April 26. Wayne county owners of pure brod live stock of all kinds, sheep, hogs, cattle, and horses, will meet in Centerville at the city hall, Wednesday evening, when plans will be discussed for holding a pure bred stock show in the i'utumn, with which the hog show that lias already been agreed upon, will be combined. In preparation for this meeting, the county agent some time ago pent out questionnaires to several farmers in each township asking for the names of all farmers within a radius of two miles who, to his knowledge, keep pure bred livestock of any description. About 200 names were secured in this mnnner, ax d invitations are being sent to them to attend this meeting. It is probable that 9t the meeting, ill. uiaiiri ui a ivuiiiv lair win ur taken up also, as some have expressed i he opinion that a stock show should! be only tJio foundation around which a ? strong Wayne county annual fair! should be built. It is said that it would ! he an easy matter, providing Richmond would support such a move, to have, in Wayne county, one of the strongest fairs of this region. Interesting Situation.

Prevention

better than cure applies to batteryills, too! Get that examination NQVP

IN spite of the old proverb, It IS sometimes too late to mend. When plates are buckled and terminals are corroded through neglect or unusually hard service, there is little left for the battery-man to say but "New battery". Don't let it get that far. Drive around today to the Prest-O-Lite Service Station and have a thorough examination made. Some trifling fault may be uncovered now that may result disastrously if not remedied. Anyhow, nd out. That's what Prest-O-Lite Service Stations are for. You will get courteous treatment and, what is even mora important, honest advice. When you do need a new battery, youll be glad to know that Prest-O-Lite is back to prewar prices and that an allowance will be mad on your old battery.

simply consist of the statement. "I know of no man within a radius of two miles who has pure bred stock". In one cafe the distance to a pure bred farm was said to be three miles. Several reports show only a few owni rs of pure bred stock in a whole township, one township according to the report, having no more pue bred livestock or all oescnpi ions than might be gathered into the space as large as that occupied by the Palladium build ing. One township is reported to hare only four owners of pure bred stock. As to breeds, except in hogs, where Poland China and Jerseys are favored, there is a wide diversity. Pcrcheron and Clydesdale are favorites among the horses, but there are some Belgians also. Shorthorn and Ar.gus and Polled Durham are found among bef cattle and even one example of the Callow ay. Agent Surprised. In dairy cattle are found Jerseys and Holsteins and in the northern part of the county some Ayrshires, whose numbers in that part in fact surprised the county agent. Jerseys seem to be the favorites with farmers who keep only a few cows, while the Holsteins run more in herds, which is probably due to their excellence for commercial rnilk production. No marked preference was expressed for any particular breed of sheep.
