FARMERS AND HOUSE KEEPERS
ATTENDANCEISH0WS INCREASE

Attendance and interest in the seS-
sions of Farmers and Housekeepers'
week at the University of Idaho show
Ia gratifying increase each succeeding
day. While there are not as many peo-
pie from Moscow and the nearby
farms in attendance as could be de-
sired, the attendance from a distance
is entirely satisfactory and those who
attend were well repaid for their eff
forts The address of Liberty H.
Bailey following the basket ball game
last night, was one of the best ad-
dresses ever delivered in the uniyersi-
ty auditorium and was heard by
large crowd Mr.. Bailey spoke on
Farming as a Mode of Life" and
he handled the subject in such a way
that there was not an uninteresting
moment and the big audience was sor-
ry when he closed. Mr.. Bailey is a
speaker to whom it is a pleasure to
listen at any time. Few men UNDER,
stand agricultural conditions better
than he and very, very few men have
the ability to express their thoughts
in as interesting way as he.
Today's program was carried out
as printed and there was a fairly
good attendance. Mr.. Bailey's address
in the auditorium this forenoon was
a splendid effort and delighted all
who heard him.
There will be slight change in the
program tonight. Instead of the agri-
cultural movies advertised, Aaron
Sapiro, attorney and director of the
California Fruit Growers Express, the
greatest organization ever formed for
cooperative marketing of farm or
orchard products, will speak in the Y
hut, Immediately after the basket ball
game, telling what has been accom-
plished by the Califonia fruit growers
in the way of cooperative marketing
and will explain the proposed organi-
zation of combination of all CO.
operative grain elevators and ware
houses of the northwest for the pur-
pose of cooperative marketing of the
grain of the northwestern states This
is now in course of
,orming and Mr. Sapiro is attorney
or the organizers. 1t will certainly
De of interest to farmers and grain
nen to hear this man from the in
side" tell about the proposed organ1za-
ion and what it will accomplish. He
will tell what the California Fruit
Growers Express has accomplished in
he saving to the producers of fruit.
