BUREAU MEMBERSHIP

Roosevelt County Farm Bureau
News-The Roosevelt County Farm
Bureau has not the active member
ship that it should have to carry on
its work effectively in the county.
You have noticed the Farm Bureau
News appearing in m~imeograph form
the last three issues which is due
to this n condition. The member
ship fee of dollar a year entities
the Farm Bureau member to the
Farm Bureau News for the same
length of time. 1t also entities a
member to use its columns for adver-
Using purposes.
The Farm Bureau organization
promotes interest chiefly in an edu-
cational way for developing projects
which are directly beneficial to all
farmers. 1t strives constantly to aid
him in his work and development in
the most economical and efficient
means. If you will inform yourself
on what has been promoted through
the Farm Bureau in the following
projects: rodent control, farm loan
association, livestock, farm crops,
good roads, boys anr girls clubs,
farm accounts, woman's work, mar
keting and finance you will convince
yourself that its growth cannot be
stopped.
Some of these projects we will ad-
nit are minor ines and little has
been accomplished but on the other
hand enough has been accomplished
in the other to make it indispensable
to agricultural conditions. Perfect
organization is our goal and until we
reach that goal it is impossible for
all these projects to function prop
erly. Older organized counties are
getting results and would no more
do without the Farm Bureau organ
ization than they would do without
their other county officers. Condi-
tions arise where this organization
has and can save thousands of dollars
to its members and brother farmers.
IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE
FARM BUREAU IN THIS COUNTY
DIE A NATURAL DEATH Do NOT
JOIN 1T OR RENEW YOUR MEM
MERSHIP FEES. An active cam
paign will be started later. Be ready
for it.

OF sixteen years as Prosecuting At

carefully preparing his documents that
not one of them was quashed by the

those having for their purpose the

THE cotton growers of the South
seem to be desperate over the decline
in the price of cotton and in some sec
tons have inauguratcd a reign of ter
ror, burning cotton and cotton gins in
order to prevent growers from selling
their product at low price.
We confess that we haven't very
much sympathy with this sort of
things. For five or six years now the
cotton growers have received enor-
nous prices for their product, and
those who have purchased cotton
goods have meekly paid three or four
times the real value. Now that there
is a decline in price, which is entirely
right and is besides inevitable, the
growers ought TO be willing to take
some of the lean after so much fat

FRANCE AROUSED
OVER FALLING OFF
OF ITS BIRTH RATE

Paris, Feb. 27.-(Mail.) )-France is
at last arousing itself to the danger of
dying out. The privately conducted.
uphill fight for a higher birth rate has
been taken over by the. government
through the creation of higher coun-
Gil Of natality. This council of thirty,
appointed by J. L. Breton, minister OF
hygiene, was asked to act Immediately.
Mr.. Breton. father of FIVE children, is
known as a strong friend of large
families Three others of the new
cabinet are advocates Of measures to
increase the French birth rate
War cost France. roughly 1,5Oo, 900
lives. A low birth rate, during the
war years. cost France 1,272,735 loss
Of population. These statistics, made
into striking pictures to illustrate their
effect on the nation. industry and war
danger are being used in vigorous
campaign by the National Alliance for
the increase Of the French population.
This campaign is being conducted by
letters to members OF parliament,
posters, a magazine. the Woman And
the Child, and through the many So
cially and politically powerful persons
interested in the movement.
The plainest sorts Of truths are told
the French about the decreasing
birth rate. The National Alliance and
lily should have three or more chill
dren. To encourage such families
government allowances of SO to 200
francs a year are granted for each
child after the second-under 13
years. The Alliance asks also for leg

derstood the defense would attempt
to set up a claim Of temporary in
sanity. -. r.
The, Staying Of Dean, who was a
deputy assessor and prominent in
county politics for years. constituted
one of the strangest' crimes that ever
confronted the authorities in this
and had no known enemies. He was
in comfortable circumstances. The
only trouble reported between hus-
band and wife developed over Mrs.
Deans objection to living on
ranch. and to please her Dean had
leased the farm and rented home
in Paso Robes. ~
Dean was found in a bed on the
second floor Of his Paso Robles home
