TO HELP OUT THE FARMERS
B. F. CLAYTON OF IOWA VISITS
IN SALT LAKE.
Is Chairman of the Farmers Nation
al Congress Executive Committee
and Prominent Man.

Hon. B. F. Clayton, chairman of the
executive committee of the Farmers
National congress, arrived in Salt Lake
yesterday morning with his wife and
is now the guest of his nephew, E. F.
Clayton, at 437 East Third South. Mr..
ClaytOn'S home is in Iowa He comes
to Utah at this time to work up an in
terest in the great farmers congress
that is to be held at Colorado Springs
next August.
He viii call upon Governor Wells to-
day or next day and ask him to ap-
point 100 delegates to that convention.
Mr.. Clayton has given many years of
hard work to his organization. He was
secretary for years, then was president
for eight years, and for a number of
years past has been chairman of the
executive committee, the committee
that does the work.
Our organization has no politics, -
ne said last evening. I'VE are organ
lied to secure for the farmers their
rights in the way of legislation. We
have secured the appointment of a
practical farmer as a member Of the
presidents cabinet, and are securing
many benefits in the way of having our
products introduced that we never
organized effort
THE farmers of the country are rea-
sonably prosperous. In the south he
is getting a high price for cotton and
cotton seed oil, and the development
of the mining and manufacturing in
terestS there are helping him to a mar
ket for his products. The trust prob
lem is serious one for the farmer in
all parts Of the country. In my own
state, Iowa, a farmer cannot sell a
pound of beef except to the Big Four
Beef company aat Sioux City or to
someone who is under their control as
far as prices are concerned. Yet the
farmers there are getting a good price
for their cattle
This is Mr.. Claytons first visit to
Utah, and he will remain for a week
or more.
