STARTLING RESULTS FROM
uI'REAIf

W W Deal President of the
Idaho State Grange IN his address to
the all too small gathering of ranch
ors ot Cairo last Saturday night de-
clnrod that the Farm nurcau Of Can.
yon county had saved half million
dollars for its members last year.
The total cost of the bureau was hut
$4,000, or net saving OF some
$lSs,OOO for the ranchers of that
county
There h no doubt that Mr.
Deal made the statement adyisedly.
for he rs In position To know whore
of he speaks, and that one state
mcnt alone should causc the rancl
ors of Malheur county 20 take note of
the farm bureau movement, as thev
are not doing I'm the vicinity ot on
tario, hut are doing in other sections
.of the county
II the farm bureau In CANYON
COUNT can achieve such results there
is no reason to believe that similar
record can he made In Malheur
county
The ranchers OF Canyon county are
not better ranchers than are those of
Malhtur county They we're not
worse rauchors than Malheur county
ranchors, and therefore they must be
ON a mar so far as ability Is con
cernod
No one living In this section will
admit that the CANYON county ranch
ors have better land To farm than our
raGchers have, nor have they any
hottcr market for their produce than
We have here, so there Is no reason
90 believe that substantial improve
mont and savings can he secured In

proceeding to make investments in a
town demand special consideration ?
That has been our experience.
Therefore Ontario should consider
itself fortunate TO have business
man like Mr. Hirsch among its citi-
zons. And it ia % be hoped that the
example he has set may to a degree
at least inspire others to adopt his
view of public aervice. The Argus

Right now the city government Of
