FARMER GETTING
/. WORST OF DEAL
Prices on Farm Products
Being Lowered, Says
Cannon /

"a. Policies being followed. by tn,
administration at Washington seen
to indicate q concerted movement Il
beat down prices of ranch and farm
products" said Miles Cannon, state
commissioner of agriculture, Wed.
nesday, according to the Idahe
Statesman. "No one would object, Z
he continued, IF there were evi.
dence Of an aeQual effort to reduce
the price OF other commodities that
the farmer has to buy, but efforts
seem to be directed almost entirely
toward reducing the price of food
stuffs. without regard to what, the
farmer Is compelled to pay for his
necessities" s'Hl.' is=
5S Mr.. Cannon's remarks were sug-
gested by telegram just received
from F. w. Davis, commissioner of
agriculture Of Texas and president
of the National Association of Com
missioners OF Agriculture, which fol-
lows:
Have called National Association
of Commissioners to meet in joint
convention with National Board of
Farm Organizations, at Washington,
d. c., October Is and IA. Urge you
be there on account of general slump
in farm products, Letter. follows .
Mr.. Cannon said that he would be
unable to attend the meeting himself,
but that arrangements might be
made by which L. w. Fluharty Of the
university extension division might
attend.
Mr.. Fluharty, who had already
planned to attend the meeting of the
Association of Land Grant Colleges
at Springfield, Mass, October 10, 20
and 81, and that of the American
Federation of Farm Bureaus at
Chicago, October and 8, said that
he would also attend the meeting at
Washington, D. G.
Mr.. Cannon, in commenting on the
general condition of markets for
AuA IL PAouuCIot uCCidIcu IudJ large
quantities of wheat are being i'm
ported, while the Chicago market is
breaking; that the price of sugar is
being beaten down to a point where
the sugar beet industry of Idaho will
suffer great damage; that freight
rates on hay make shipping practic-
ally prohibitive, and that many of
the commodities the farmer has to
buy are still going up in some To-
calities, lumber being mentioned in
particular. He further declared that
conditions have almost reached
point where federal reserve banks
will not accept any kind of farm or
ranch produce as security. He also
recalled the recent break in the
prune market, when records were
published to show that Idaho pro-
who had shipped their fruit
east, not only realized no profits, but
were compelled to spend money be-
sides.
