More than four hundred bungalows, summer residences and hotels, valued at $4,000,000, were burned to the ground at 'Arverne, Long Island, rendering a population of 10,000 men, women and children temporarily homeless. The fire, fanned by a high wind, devastated everything tefore it within an area of half a square mile. Thousands narrowly escaped being burned to death. After the flames had been brought under control the stricken area resembled a battle swept area in France. Two persons were killed and several injured. This picture shows a group of refugees from the flames with a few scant articles of furniture saved from the flames.

; f2i by Intx Feature Service. The Farm and By William R. So much interest attaches to the! statements coming from the offices of the U. S. Grain Growers at Chicago, ' right now at harvest time, that we are glad to be able to announce a long letter from the officials of the as sociation. This letter, dated June 12, was received by The Palladium, on Saturday, 17th. This was a bit late, j idging from the dating, but that does not affect the value of Importance of the news given out. Extracts from the Grain Growers' letter, follows: CHICAGO, 111.. June 12. Details of all arrangements for marketing grain of more than 60,000. members of the U. S. Grain Growers, Inc., have been agreed upon and announcement of the consumation of the necessary legal procedure and opening of offices on some terminal grain markets may be expected momentarily, according to a statement authorized by officers of the farmers' cooperative grain market ing company today. A terminal marketing organization which will be able to condition and grade np shipments of grain received and a terminal sales company, holding memberships on principal grain i exchanges, constitute the basis of the selling arrangements. Farmers elevators will be given the first opportunity to buy the voting and interest-bearing stock in the sales organization. Opening of sales offices will not be delayed, however, until this stock is purchased but it will be offered to farmers elevator affiliated with thei U. S. Grain Growers Inc., after the selling organization is in operation. An outstanding and responsible man
recognized as an exceptionally good'ment; but it is even more important
grain merchandizer and whose recorrV is entirely free from any speculative! ventures in the grain market will have charge of the sales in the first offices opened for the Grain Growers. All of these details have been agreed upon and are being written into formal contracts and agreements, the full details of which will be announced only when the papers have been executed." Warns Against Impatience We cannot expect all of our coworkers and farmer members in the field to understand the tremendous amount of work necessary to completing our selling arrangements," said C. H. Gustafson. president of the farm ers company, "It is quite natural that many have become impatient. Criticisms which have been made were anticipated. We can only reply with the assurance that we are proceeding with as much haste as safety, permanency and protection of the interests
of our members will allow. We have .the outside market. The rising price refused to take a step which could land good bids caused most, of the not meet that test. When the final producers who had been ready to pool announcement is made, within a short) their seed to sell at 15 cents, so the time, we are sure that all farmers whoj pool was not large. Forty-five grow have a practical viewpoint on cooper-1 ers finally put 50,000 pounds togeth-
ative erain marketing will he satisfied with the machinery which is made available for their use." The Gist of the Letter The letter to-hand covers much space but the matters vital to the organization at this time are given in the opening chapter, as above. The communication touches on matters occurring as far back as the last week in May. One of these statements, dated at Fargo, N. D., May 31, is of importance to the organization. This information 'does not cover any independent pools or pooling, so much agitated in the northwest, but relates only to the, action taken on the part of the Grain Grower membership in that state, as a State Unit." The Fargo letter reads as follows: "North Dakota membership of the U. S. Grain Growers Inc., will not make independent arrangements for the sale of grain until the parent organization had had ample time to put the national sales plan into effect, through the U. S. Grain Growers' sales company, it was announced here, following a meeting of representative grower members in North Dakota." A number of names was signed to that letter. As a matter of fact the membership of the Grain Growers in the two Dakotas is but a handful, compared with Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana and Nebraska, the heart of the whole Grain Grower proposition at this time. A 'Sensible Conclusion A number of our farmers who have discussed the growth of the Grain Growers' membership at various times, have expressed themselves very much in accordance with the following statement in the letter from which we have been quoting. This paragraph reads: "It is the opinion of officers that only minor attention will be given to furthering organization activities of I the association at this time. Detailed and finished arrangements for handling the volume of grain already under contract is regarded as the primary problem. It is believed that further development of the membership of the association will take care of itself, when the organization is able to handle the existing volume of grain under contract in an efficient and satisfactory manner."

The typical clover region of the United States occupies the northeastern part, extending west into Minnesota and south approximately to the Ohio river and the Mason and Dixon line. One Dollar For Wheat A special from Columbus, Ind., on Saturday afternoon said that local dealers are expecting to begin buying the new crop wheat at $1 per bushel. The crop In Barthelomew county Is regarded as good, and an average yield of fifteen bushels an acre is expected. It is estimated that 54,000 acres of wheat will be cut in the county this year, a smaller acreage than last year. Thrashing is expected to start within two weeks. The charge for thrashing will be slightly lower this year than last, it is reported. To Show Ohio Cattle The Ohio beef cattle "view herd" will be shown at 14 fairs in 13 coun ties. The circuit starts July 10 and will end at Columbus on October 13. Rainsboro, Highland county, is the first fair at which the herd will be tented and exhibited. The counties selected are in the hilly end of Ohio, where it is believed beef cattle add to the income of the farmers. Thirteen Shorthorns, Herefords and Aberdeen-Angus cattle comprise the show herd.

A Pool That Paid Last year there was a voluntary pool of red top seed by a few growers in Clay county, 111., that was worth 000 to the red top growers of that county. The seed crop of the county was approximately 2.000,000 pounds. Thirty per cent of this, or 600,000 pounds, was in dealers' hand at 12 cents per ; pound before the pool was organized. Just at that time the red top dealers predicted that the remaining 1.400,000 pounds would be purchased for . 10 cents. Some buyers had actually dropped their bids to a dime, but were buying little. Then a few growers began talking of organizing a pool, and a meeting was held. Instantly the buyers' bid.-; jumped from 10 to 12, 14 and then to 15 cents without any change in i er and appointed a committee to supervise the sale of it. The pooled seed was sold at 19 cents, four cents higher than the highest bid by the dealers. The Seed Growers' Exchange Clay county farmers figure that the pool was worth $42,000 on last year's crop. Their 2,000.000 pounds at 12 cents would have made $240.000. Actually the first. 600,000 pound brought 12 cents and the rest 15 cents, ru lilt; iriuiua T7c ?fci.vvv. xin j three cents advance was due to the 1 organization of the pool, and it is fig-j ured that the pool was worth $42,000. to the farmers. In addition it paid an-j other four cents on 50,000 pounds, ori $2,400, to the 45 men who had seedj in it. I The success of last year's pool is one of the reasons why the red top growers are now organizing the Egyptian Seed Growers' Exchange, a cooperative marketing association on a permanent basis, to market their entire seed crop. NOW BOILS BEANS AND RICE PETROGRAD, June 19. Pishkin, once chef of Emperor Nicholas, is now boiling rice, beans and cocoa for hungry children in the American relief administration kitchen which has just been established at Tsarskoye-Selo. Three thousand children daily are being fed from the stoves and copper kettles that once cooked delicacies for 1 imperial dinners. Several servants of1 the ex-czar are employed as kitchen workers. Radishes, carrots, beets, spring onions, and turnips remain marketable longer .when topped in the field, as 1 he growing plants give up moisture to the air from the leaves by evaporation and this increases the wilting of the roots.
