COOPERATIVE MARKETING FOR
FARMS

AS the result of the meeting OF Off
| GERS of the Farm Bureau declarations
of the midwest group with represen-
tatives of temperatures and other farm-
ers' bodies in Chicago last week, plans
are under way to work out O system
iof cooperative grain and livestock mar
keting in which the national farm bu-
reau federation is taking the lead.
A committee to formulate the plans
will be named by President Howard, Of
the American Farm Bureau federation
and it is to start it's task soon. 1t is
probable that many months will be con-
suned in the committees survey, but
when it's work is completed a definite
and workable plan to save the farmers
the expensive upkeep Of middle men
in food products will be ready for adop-
!tion.
Il One of the most interesting speakers
at the conference was Attorney Sapiro,
of San Francisco, who told how the
California fruit growers had organized
to market their products, and whose
talk, while outlining plan that is not
adaptable to grain and to livestock, in

problems of the farmer.

keting problems, and there is no doubt
but that the fundamental principle of
co.operation can be successfully applied
to grain and livestock, although the es-

are not the same as those of the fruit

BINDER SHOCKS THE
a GRAIN

The Iowan, published at Oelwein,
Iowa, says: At last there is no more
need for animal call for the city man to
come to the aid of the farmer and help
harvest the oat and wheat crops. Fri
day afternoon the first machine for
shocking oats was put into use on the
Fred Swartz farm a mile and a half
north of Oelwein, and from the time the
first bundle dropped into it the new
"contraption" demonstrated itself to be
a success.
The new machine is an auxiliary at
tachment to the binder and is attached
in place Of the old bundle carrier. The
bundle drops out into forked arm that
swings the bundle back to a carrier,
dropping each bundle into different
place until the carrier is filled, when a
giant. needle swings down and ties the
bundles into a shock, and the carrier
tips and places them on the ground in
a neat, compact shock that the wind
will not blow over.
The shocker that was put into use
Friday was attached to an eight foot
Deering binder, which was pulled by a
Fortison tractor. There is no separate
mechanism on the shocker that needs
attention and if a Titan or a Moline
Universal tractor were used one man

One Of the largest gatherings OF
farmers ever held in Harrison county
was at the Farm Bureau picnic at
Woodbine last Thursdays The crowd

have been more. There was plenty in

address of the day, that given by e. II. I

OF the county being present. The meet.
Ing! had been called by the secretary,
County Agent Quist, for the reason that
he had a number OF important matters
70 bring before the members of the as
sociation.
President Raymond Brown presided
and among the first questions brought
out was one pertaining to listing entries
for the county, fair. Secretary Quist
had prepared entry blanks and these
were distributed among those present,
with an urgent request that entries be
made not later, than August 31st, and
they must be filed with the secretary.
,f3After considerable discussion it was
decided that the association urge its
members to take exhibits to the fair and
encourage the livestock industry in this
the fair will be utilized. 1t may be.
possible to demonstrate the difference
between pure bred stock and the scrub
by having types of both on exhibition.
The association went on record as fav-
oring the campaign now being waged
BY the government for better sires.
Each member present at the meeting
obligated himself to talk better sires
wherever possible. If a member is to
have sale of pure bred stock, it will
be the duty of the other members to
boost for him. Talk strong on the bet
ter sire proposition, and in this way
get stochman to thinking.
The association will ask the fair man
agement to provide means whereby the
exhibitors will be able to keep the pens
in a more sanitary condition.; the ex-
hibitors will see that ample straw or
bedding Is had for the pens, but they
want to keep the pens clean. and free
from dirt. Often times an exhibitor
will take lots of time and pains to pre-
pare his stock for exhibition and when
he arrives at the fair, he finds dirty
utnsanitary pens and is discouraged.
Nice, clean straw and clean surround-
ings make an animal look better.
1.-THE Boys and Girls Pig Club came
la for considerable attention at the Sat
ufday meeting, and it was learned that
Secretary Quist expects to have every
member of the club at the fair, and
they will show their litters. 1t is the

PHOSPHORUS USE IS
UNIVERSAL.

Following the proof that phosphorus
fertilizers give profitable increase in
crop yields on many soils of the state,
some Iowa farmers are using them not
wisely, but too well. That is, instead
of applying phosphorus properly along
with other essential fertilizing materi-
ais, such as green manures and barn
yard manures, they are misusing it
and the final result will be a decreased
and poorer, not richer, soil.
This situation exists in some parts
of eastern Iowa." says H. J. Harper, a
member of the soil survey staff Of the
Iowa Agricultural Experiment station,
where the use of phosphorus fertiliz-
ers is rapidly increasing. In some in
stances tenants are buying phosphorus
to get bigger crops so that they may
get more for their labor but is often
at. the sacrifice(of the permanent fertil-
ity of the land"
Phosphorus fertilizers must be used
in connection with other essential fer
tilizers like manure, green manures and
lime, say the soil experts at Ames If
used alone, they stimulate crop produc.
ton for time, but sooner or later rob
the soil Of other plant foods and then
the land becomes worn out" and It's
yields decrease seriously. Every inn
portant plant food in the soil must be
renewed through the use Of fertilizers.
To use one alone merely stimulates
greater production for a little while and
then leaves the land worse off than be-
