Helping the Farmer
Thomas F. Logan in Leslie's.

IuOnaS F. Logan Tn AeSlle s.
 The once neglected farmer has been the benefit of much attention in re- cent years. There is now an office in the departmeh of agriculture which has large staff of experts dealing with the distribution of agricultural commodities and rural organization which Secretary Houston calls the best in the world. Among it's notable achiev
 ments the secretary places the provis- ions for standardizing staple agricul- tural products, for licensing of bonded warehouses for storage of certain crops and to make possible issuance of easily negotiable warehouse receipts, the federal farm loan act to reduce cost of farm loans. the federal re- serve act authorizing national banks to lend money on farm mortgages, and the federal aid road act providing for cooperation between the federal gov ernment and the states in the con-
 struction of rural post roads. The office of markets and rural organiza- tion has done much in the past year to foster cooperative associations, mo- tably among the fruit growers of the western states. In his annual report, Secretary Houston tells what has been done toward encouraging extension of raising of food animals and in com- batting stock disease. The appropria- tion of s5,000, 900 for road improvement provides that the states shall share jointly with the federal government in the amounts expended. Thirty-two states have indicated their intention to meet the requirements of the act.
