CROP ESTIMATES VALUABLE

Now and then the question is asked,
what benefit does the farmer re-
ceive from the government crop re-
pOrts?" Also, "Do they not play into
the hands of the speculators?" Here
are few facts that may help to clear
up doubts as to the immense value of
the crop estimating work done by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture.
Farmers are benefited directly and
indirectly. Because the reports cover
crop and live stock conditions, pres
ent and prospective supply, for all
states, and because they are unbiased,
disinterested, and as nearly accurate
as it is practicable to make them,
farmers can use the information they
contain as a guide to planting and
marketing; that is, by observing
whether the indicated supply is or
will be relatively large or small as
compared with previous years the
farmer can decide intelligently wheth-
er to increase or decrease the acreage
in particular corp, and whether to
sell his harvested crop Immediately
or hold for a probable advance in price
at later date. Hundreds of farmers
have written the department that they
have profted from a few hundred to
several thousand dollars in single
season by regulating their paintings
and marketings in this way, and many
farmers state they have obtained top
prices year after year by studying the
crop reports. Every farmer could and
should do the same.
Speculation thrives and depends up
on lack of information, uncertainty
and confusion on the part of farmers
and the public. Crops and live stock
are grown in the open and can not be
hid. Spectators have their own
means Of getting information all the
time, by letter and by telegraph
through travelling statesmen, local buy
ers and dealers, country merchants
and bankers, through crop experts EN-.
ployed by them at high salaries, and

He has already saved the farmers Of

The federation is studying the world
markets to determine what shall be

through various private crop report
ing agencies. Were it not for the bu-
reau of crop estimates, which is dis
interested federal agency through
which farmers can pool information
regarding local conditions and have it
summarized by the bureau into an
accurate report for the whole country,
farmers and the public would be at the
mercy Of spectators who would be
free to issue any sort of misleading
reports designed to influence prices
to their own advantage, and farmers
would have no means of checking them
up. The crop reports injure no one
but the spectators, who could well
afford to pay many times the entire
cost Of the bureau to have the govern
ment crop reports discontinued or dis
credited In fact, the only influential
request received by the department
from any source in recent years for
the suppression Of the crop report
came from one of the largest specu-
lative exchanges in the country. In
their own interest and in the interest
of agriculture generally, farmers
should cooperate with the bureau Of
crop estimates by reporting conditions
in their neighborhoods, and should not
criticise or disparage the crop reports
as inaccurate or detrimental to the in
terests of farmers, because by doing
so they are likely to play directly in
to the hands Of the spectators.
Farmers should realize that the
prices Of their products are determined
largely by the relative supply, because
the demands remains fairly constant,
and that the law of supply and demand
which determines or influences these
prices is not limited to any particular
county or state, but is nationwide, and
for some crops worldwide Regard
less Of what is grown in your own
country, or even in your own state,
the price you get for what you have
to sell will depend largely upon what
is produced by farmers in other states
anu CoulLl les, anu DtlOIb you can Op-
eide intelligently whether it will pay
you to grow more or less cotton, or
corn, or any other crop. or whether to
sell your crop or live stock now or to
hold it until later on, you must know
something about the relative supply
produced in other states and coun-
tries. 1t is this information which the
government crop reports supply more
accurately and more dependably than
any other agency, and it is this sort
of information which farmers must
learn 10 use, as it will help them 10
make their business profitable.
The monthly crop report is an abso-
lutely unbiased. nonpartisan, business
service, as nearly accurate as it is pos
sible to make it and therefore the most
dependable source of information
available to farmers and the public
and that, to be of greatest practical
value, farmers should cooperate with

FARM BUREAU GROWS RAPIDLY

On account Of its rapidly growing
membership and the good work it is
accomplishing, the farm bureau is at
tracing the attention of farmers in
every state in the Union. First de-
yeIoped as an educational body to
support the work of the county agent,
the county farm bureau has become
interested in every problem which af-
years, the hundreds of county farm
bureaus in the United States have
been federated into state OTganiza-
tons, and the state federations have
Fdrm Bureau Federation. This latter
or4anization today has membership
Of approximately one million farmers
living in 80 states in the Union and
Tire number is growing rapidly.
Since the organization Of the ma
tiOnal federation in November, 1919,
the state federatiOns and county bu-
raaus have been conducting vigorous
Campaigns to increase their member
snip. The campaign in South Dakota
started in Codngton county on June
8th and since then the membership
is been started in Hamlin, Deuel. and
Turner counties. During the first day
OF the deuel. county campaign, 93r6
Of the farmers in one township joined
the bureau 85%l Of all the farmers in
solicited in Hamlin county became
members In Iowa there is one
county with 1905 farms and 1905
f~m bureau members. Iowa, Illinois,
california, New York and many other
states have very large memberships
Farmers realize that the farm bu-
r-au is doing real constructive work
in their behalf It's membership is ma
on wide It's organization is uni
form. Every farm organization is rep
resented within its membership 1t
concerns itself with every interest
When a farmer joins his county farm
bureau he becomes a member OF his
state federation and the American
Farm Bureau Federation. 1t gives him
an opportunity to express himself in
community, county, state and national
affairs. The farm bureau promotes,
protects and represents the educa-
tional, social and economic interests
of the farmers of the entire country
