Geo. b. Ross, State Grain Inspector
inspection, failed by big vote. The
Kansas Grain Dealers association Is
separate from the Independent mems
organization, and is fighting legis-
lation that would make state inspec-
tion of grain compulsory.
George b. Ross, state grain in
spector, at whom the rap was aim
ed, explained the present work of
the state inspection office. and put
1t up to the farmers elevator men
as to whether they would favor q
compulsory law. The elevator men
passed a resolution favoring feder-
al inspection, which is in a way a
victory for Mr.. Ross, who has been
urging federal supervision of state
compulsory grain inspection.
Mr.. Ross explained the meaning
OF compulsory inspection, which does
not exist in Kansas at the present
time. Compulsory inspection, such
MS has been proposed, would not
mean that every car of grain sold
by farmer to miller, or from eleva-
tor to miller, would have to be In
snected. But where a car would be
shipped to town where an inspec-
tion office was located, there in
apection would be compulsory.
Sentiment was not all favorable
to compulsory inspection. G. w.
Lawrence" Of Larned, secretary of
the association, declared that COM
Dulsory inspection would be dis
eliminating against farmers eleva-
tors. For instance, legislation that
has been proposed would compel
inspection, paid by the farmers ele-
vator, should a farmers elevator
ship to miller in some other town.
But should the miller buy grain
through its own mill from the far
rner's wagon. inspection would not
be compulsory.
Passed Resolutions

citation thanked the Commercial

Strength In Cooperation


1t is pleasing to note the in
creasing spirit Of cooperation on
the part of citizens Of Crowley
county. Such q spirit has been
noticeably on the increase dur
ing the past several weeks. That
is the one thing which will make
Crowley county one of the best
and most powerful in the Arkan-
sas valley. It will not only in
crease the county in population
but it will tend to draw the best
class Of people.
Crowley county's citizenship is
of a type above the average, and
it is better to add one good
thrifty family to the community
than a half dozen of the ques-
tionable sort. Cooperation aids
in this as it tends to secure good
schools and other public institu-
lions and public buildings. In a
union such as is being displayed
at the present time there is
great strength.

Restore Tariff on Sugar

ANCoSOSC 0AuA OA ouSo4
Despite the winning of the
handful of eastern refiners of
foreign raw sugar who have
clamored and lobbied for the re-
moval of the tariff on raw sugar
to the end that their margin of
profit may be increased, sugar is
one Of the cheapest of domestic
commodities.
The tariff has furnished Uncle
Sam with a'revenue of $50, 0OO,-
900 annually and sugar is SO
cheap that it has not been felt
by the consumer.
At the same time the tariff has
built up domestic sugar indus
try that produces 900, 600 long
tons every year of sugar. There
is $500, 600, 900 invested in the
industry, it distributes $50, 600, :
600 or more among farmers an
nually.
It is a big and growing indus
try. Taking off the tariff has
simply put a few million dollars
more into the pockets Of a few
