The local branch of the Farmers
Society Of Equity held its annual
stockholders meeting Tuesday after
noon in the office of the
President NJ. Palmer presided and

ection of officers for the ensuing year.

Faa, A. ID. Babcock, L. w. Cotant, Roy
Burrell and ID. T. Farnham. The new
members elected to the board were:J,

Rergstrom.
W. W. White reported that the Equity
had handled sS0,000.0 90 worth of bust
ness for its members during the past
year. This, he said, was as large as
could be expected considering the
handicap under which the society had
been laboring the past year. Forty of
the si%xty-nine members of the society
were present at the meeting and en-
tracted in all two thousand acres of
wheat to be handled by the Equity
during the following year.
w. W. White will attend the meeting
of the State Farmers Society of Equity
in Pocatello Thursday afternoon.
