CUR WEATHER EYE
When Farmers Organize

When farmers organize, they will
constitute the largest and most
powerful union of workers in the
world. No other industry has so
many followers; nor does any 9th
er hold nearly SO great power over
other classes of society.
The organization seems near at
hand. It is coming in the form of
a combination Of county farm bu-
reaus into state declarations. There
are already sixteen of these state
federations; and they in turn are
about to combine to form a nation
al federation.
At the same time a great drive is
being put on to increase the mem
bership Of various county bureaus.
This is the most promising feature
of the whole movement for it is be-
ginning to look as if about all the
farmers are going to join. The Iowa
federation has about sixty thousand
members now; and the number is
increasing so fast that it is expected
to reach l25, 1000 to $50, 900 by mid.
winter. On an average, from nine.
ty to ninety-6ve percent of the
farmers are joining, while in some
communities practically all are go
ing in. In one township in Hardin
County recently, the organizers re
ported that the only thing that go'
away from them was rabbit thai
escaped into an!adjoining township
The next day the organizers in tn
latter township reported that they
had caught the rabbit.
It was when the presidents o
several state federations of farm
bureaus arrived in Washington
some time ago that congress sud
denly decided to carry the repea
of the daylight savings law over tn
presidents veto. This indicate
that our lawmakers are already tax
ing the movement pretty seriously
1t is time.

Great Britain is to receive some
German passenger ships for trans

while France and Italy will be given
most OF the German merchant ships
for transportation OF food and mate

Details of the transfer of Germa o
shipping will be completed at a meet

Germany and the associated powers
at the Spa next week. This plan
marks new departure in handling OF
economic affairs OF Germany, in that
civilians will be in control and Ger

should be given the first opportunity

They believe the best results can be

they are firmly against any lenincy
