a big farmers picnic which is
to be held at Terrace, June 10th
w. S. Good, who is the chair
man in barge of the local ar
rangements, predicts that the
picnic will be the largest ever
held in this vicinity. In an in
terview he stated that because
of the prominence of the men
through the northwest, it is not
unlikely that farmers from dis
tance portions of the county
will make it a point to be at the
picnic on that date.
Farmers in this locality feel
particularly fortunate in being
able to secure these speakers
for this occasion as all are un-
usually busy and all are in great
demand. The demand for their
services was SO great in fact
that it became necessary to ar
range tour to meet with leia
the requests for dates and it was
through this tour that arrange
ments were made for the local
meeting.
Perhaps no man is better
known to the farmers of the
northwest than ]. M. Anderson,
who has been in the Equity
movement for the past twelve
yeasr and has at all times dur
ing that period served as Pres
ident of the Equity Cooperative
Exchange of st. Paul The larg-
est institution of it's kind in the
United States, which boasts of
a paid up capital of nearly a
dollars.
Mr.. Tittemore is also well
known, having made the ac-
Of many Montana

operators Congress at Great
Falls last January. He is an able
speaker, is possessed of force
full personality and through a
comprehensive study of agricul-
5ural conditions in their relat-

Who is held in higher esteem
Lomng the farmers than is ''Bill
Burlingame, President Of the
Montana Union of the Equity.
Burlingame is an everyday
ort of chap, it is said, and never
made any study of speaking,

lis fellOw-farmers as man to
nan, his sincerity, ibis earnest
less of purpose and his intense
