For Benefit Of Luma's Growers.

At the last regular meeting Of the
directors Of the Farmers association
il was voted to purchase a new Clip
per bean cleaning machine, 10 be IN
stalled at the headquarters Of the as
ISOLATION and operated by III assocl-
ton only. All growers Of heans and
grains may have their products clean
ed'and put into good marketable con-
dition at actual cost Of operating the
machine.
This Is one Of the most important
steps taken BY the Farmers associ-
ton for some time, and the directors
are to be highly commented for then
action. Il is the purpose of the as
ISOLATION from now on TO assist the
farmer in marketing his products as
well as 10 buy for him at a minimum
cost.
The Clipper cleaner is mannfac-
tured at Saginaw, Michigan, in the
heart of the Michigan bean growing
industry and is considered one of the
best Of its kind on the market The

The cOuUtv Farm Bureau.

Many Of us have frequently heard
Of the county farm bureau, but we
have had only hazy notions as to its
operation. Il is, therefore, our pur-
pose in this article TO tell what the
farm bureau IS, how il works, and
essentials for its success.
Nh. L. R. SimOns, agricultursi'
who has had years of experience with
the farm bureau, describes it as fol-
lows. ut is a non-partisan, non
seetarian, non-secret organization
representing the wheel farming pop
ulation, 2en aud women alike, and
acts as a clearing house for every
other association interested in worn
with rural people. Especially i IS .
chamber Of agriculture, correspond
ing in many Of its functions with .
city chamber Of commerce.. The farm
bureau IS not a dream Of a theorist
bat was developed by the necessit!
Of meeting the need for etfectlv'
county agricultural agent work. II
primary purposes are;

THE War LOAN TO
LUNA COUNTY FARMERS
Il Locks as II Farmers VIII Have 10
20 Without loans Except Tor
Seeds Alone

There have been numerous apph-
cations by farmers in this county for
loans 10 carry on increased crop pro
dncton. The applications were made
10 Frank Nordhans, chairman Of the
local council Of defense. Most Of
the applicants desired aid to buy fuel
oil and feed for horses, as well as
seed. But the orders from the state
council of defense to Mr. Nordhaus
we're TO the effect that money should
he loaned for seed only. Mr.. Nofd-
hans saw al once that this would
work hardship on our farmers, for
most Of them had saved seed from
last year and were more in need Of
money 10 buy oil and feed He ex-
planned the situation TO Charles
Springer, chairman Of the executive
committee Of the state council Of de-
Tense. But no change could be Sc
cured to meet our local conditions.
Then Mr.. Nordhaus made o trip to
Santa Fe, where he had a personal
interview with W. NJ Danberg, the
general secretary, for the purpose OF
having exceptions made, but again no
favors could be secured
Following will be found extracts
from letter from Mr. DanbeTg which
came TO the office Of the county
agent, who also has been WORKING
with Mr.. Nordhans ON this PROPOSE
ton:
I'VE advised all our financial
agents that owing to the very limited
amount Of money authorized to bt
expended to promote increased food
production, We would be unable tC
furnish funds for anything other thar
seed Applications sent in for feed
for work animals and oil for pump
ing plant propositions called for more
money than We had to spend, auC
owing to the necessity Of increasing
the production Of wheat corn anS
beans, being the things most neces
sary 10 help win the war, We are d.
rected not to extend aid in pnrchas'
Of feed, oil, on for the purpose o
carving on farm operations.
Although 81 per cent Of the loan
made in Luna county last year re
NAMED unpaid, We authorized Nh
Nordhaas to furnish seed to tn
amount Of 81 800, which amount "
figured We would he able to raise b
the time il was needed.
The plan adopted last year, look
ing to increased food production !
this state, vas not meant to BE- per
manent il any way, and il was large
IL because Of crop failures IN a fe'
sections last year, coupled with tn
fact that wheat and corn were so dii
ficult to obtain, that we undertook I
carry on the work this year. In mos
sections, with the help gwen u
farmers last year, they should ha'
no difficulty in securing local an
and particularly in cases where the
hsve good agricultural land and al
able 10 furnish their own seed.

February or March there would have
been no question about using them,
but at this late date and with the
quantity Of beans on hand the army
would be taking unnecessary risks Of

Too Late for Beans This Tine.

Honorable A. a. JOntsI JuHt I
United States Senate:
Ny Dear Sir-Answering your let
ter Of May 10Th attached to letter
from Mr.. A. C. Heyman, county agn-
cultural agent, Of Deming, New Mex
leo, relative to the sale Of the 1917
crop Of California pink beans in the
hands Of the Luna county farmers,
this office advises that inasmuch ms
the requirements Of the army have
been filled, further purchases are mn
necessary.
Had these beans been offered in
Deming graphic. (Deming, N.M.) 1903-1948, 1918-06-14

We assume that tins is the last
word on the farm loan for this
county. AS much time as Mr.. Nord-
haus has given to this proposition, to
say the least, the results are as dis
appointing TO him as to any Of the
farmers who Are worthy Of every pos
sible aid that could be extended to
them.
All We can say in conclusion IS that
with these instructions the farmres
will have to shape their plans and
carry ON their farming operations as
we'll as possible. About the best We
can do is to extend 10 YOU our sym
patty and good wishes.

vised for the sole purpose Of aiding
farmers Il Is strictly for The pur-
pose Of increasing the production Of
such foods considered most neces-
sary to win the war, and while il is
true that the farmers in many in
stances receive assistance, so 10
speak, il is only because they have
the ground upon which could be pro-
duced more than would be otherwise
produced
I'VE would like to help the farmers
ont on the oh proposition, but we
simply haven't the funds, and outside
Of this fact We must treat everyone
alike. We have consistently refused
to Bny feed for farmers, as web as "a
furnish oil and finance farming Oper-
ations this year, and TO make excep-
tions IN this case would not be fan
from any standpoint, even were We
able to do so. Yours very truly,

policies as to participate in the
organization of a league to enforce
peace"
The debate in Rathdrum took
place in the Presbyterian church.

Hold Down Local Taxes.
Industrial News Bureau.

That is one of the duties to be
demanded of those who would
serve the people in the legislatures
to be chosen this fall.
Taxes are made up by city,
school, state and county officials
and all are prepared to shift the
blame on the other fellow.
But if higher type of citizen
ship is sent to the legislature on
pledge to reduce taxes, this pass
ing the buck will cease.
For instance, in Colorado gener-
al property taxes in 1917 were SI7
on the thousand dollar 5, and this
year $40 will be collected.
The same condition will be
found to exist in m ost western
states and an absolute demand
must be made for reduction tohelp
offset war taxes at this time or
many industries will be crippled.
For instance, in one city, school
taxes are $I.28 higher, and large
volume of new school laws are
passed by each legislature.
These laws do not come from
the people, but are demanded and
log-rolled through the legislature
by the organized educational off,
cialism.
/ In the same way state and county
taxes are increased, and it is high
time Legislators realiz ed that they
must represent those who pay the
money.
