There Is more at stake than the saw

money that goes out Of town to mail

the retailer exacts from the farmer an

the farmers are falling far short Of
their duty to the community in which

The pride, the patriotism of Wapello

PRESIDENT DAVID AYPOINTS OUT THE
BENEFITS DERIVED FROM ASSOCIATION

schools in Wapello county we ar
more than ever convinced that tn
farmers and educators Of Wapell'
county are second to none in the state
In conclusion my friends and fellow
farmers let US resolve before leaving
this hall that by better and more In
telligent farming that we will strive tC
keep up the fertility OF our soil and
produce more abundant crops In the
years to come than in those gone by.
my brother farmers and friends arc
you aware Of the standing of this grea'
state Of ours in agricultural production
compared with her sister states Of this
great nation?
Iowa Is: ~. ..
First in oat crop.
First In number Of hogs.
"First in number Of banks.
First In number Of horses.
First in total products from the
soil.
First in corn crop Except Illinois
First in literacy Except ono other.)
First In hay crop Except New
York;.

First in dairy cows Except New
York.
First in potato crop Except one 9TH
First in value Of implements or
farm
First in number and value Of meal
cattle Except Texas.
First in coal production west OF the
Mississippi river Except Colorado.
my brother farmers I give you this
statistical report to impress upon your
mind that the grand old state OF lows
Is the leader Of her sister states IN
agricultural production and that Wa
pello county Is doing her full share to
keep Iowa In the front rank.
I'm verifying this statistical report
you can call on the secretary Of the
Ottumwa Commercial association and
examine the government bulletins
which are on file in his office and are
accessible to any one who wishes to
investigate. 49,.
But my brother farmers, with this
grand showing that we are making IN
Wapello county let US not neglect one
more important feature which to my
mind Is the most important: the edu-
ca tion Of our children. Let us strive to
keep our country schools up 70 high
standard Of efficiency, by building
better school houses and establishing
township high schools and to work In
harmony for the benefit OF all the peo-
pie in Wapello county.
Now my friends. again want to
thank you one and all for your assist
ance and the honor you have confer
red upon me during the year 1912 and
/ know that whoever my successor may
be he will find the citizens OF Wapello
county the best and truest friends q
man ever had"

What the year 1912 has brought ia
him as president and the benefits de-
rived by the members Of the Wapello
County Farmers institute were brought
ont In the annual address given by
President David Jay at the opening
session yesterday. Mr.. Jay said:
THE year 1912 just now closing has
been one Of much pleasure to me as
your presiding officer, the president OF
istence for the benefit Of the great ag-
ricultural class OF citizens. II we wcrs
to search the great states Of our re-
public over there could not be found q
more loyal energetic class Of men and
women than the farmers and their
families Of Wapello county.
II cannot find words to express to
you my appreciation Of your loyalty
and the hearty support and co-opera
ton that you have given me during the
past year as president Of the WapellC
County Farmers institute.
1.-The Farmers institute has brought
me closer to you as farmers and as In
dividuals and has cemented friend
ship which without this institute
would have been next to Impossible.
have learned to know you as farmers
and friends better than ever before.
The untiring efforts Of your execu-
tive board and the unceasing efforts OF
your secretaries enable me to point
with pride to what we have accomp-
lished during the year Of 1912. -.r
You may ask what have we &C
complished?
THE one thing we can look to with
pleasure Is the spirit Of brotherly love
and good feeling that now exists be-
tween the country and city people.
think the sooner we get together and
understand each other as citizens OF
Wapello county it will be much better
for all OF us.
There Is one thing that is Of vital
importance to us as farmers and that
is to see that we have state and ma
tional legislation that will be Of benefit
to us as farmers.
THE great father Of our country,
George Washington, once said II know
of no pursuit in which more real and i'm
portant services can be rendered to
any country, than by improving Its
agricultural conditions and Its breed
of useful animals
We can petition our representatives
in the coming session Of the state
legislature. In regard to the enactment
of legislation that will be to our inter-
est or to repeal legislation now on our
books that is detrimental to our In
terests not only as farmers but as cit
liens of Wapello county and they will
give us due consideration when we
make our desire known to them.

play of the products Of our county on
exhibition at this institute and the ex-
hibit Of school work from the different
