FARM BUREAU STARTS
BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

At a recent meeting of the execu-
tive committee of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation it. was de-
cided to establish a bureau Of in
vestigation as part of the program
Of the County Farm Bureau and
State Federation.
The purpose of this bureau will be
to investigate and obtain informa-
tion Of all enterprises for which the
sale Of stock is being pushed among
farmers of this state. It will also
be the purpose to investigate and
eliminate any and all purebred live
stock selling schemes which are not
operating on basis to- the best in
terest of both the farmer and pure
bred breeder. Promotion schemes
not under the Jurisdiction of the
state security commission will be in
vestigated and reports furnished to
anyone desiring them.
The need of this bureau has been
shown by the inquiries continually
coming into the office of the fedora
tion from farmers and county agents
relative to stock promoting schemes
also schemes for the sale Of pure
bred livestock, which are going on
throughout different counties.
The plan of operation of this bur.
eau will be as follows: Question.
naires in blank form will be kept at
all Farm Bureau offices. All farmers
aye to be informed of this investaga
ton bureau and advised that before
they subscribe for stock in any way
to any new enterprise under promo
tion that they first make sure that
the promoter has filled out in du
plicate this QUESTIONABLE, a copy OF
which will be kept on file at the

County Farm Bureau office, a second
copy to be given to,$the promoter.
This promotion proposition, after.
being carefully investigated, will be
approved or disapproved by the
County Farm Bureau executivesboard,
the action taken being indicated ON
the questionnaire. In case further
information is desired that can be
furnished by the promoter =. investir
cation will be made by the State
Federation. =
The Minnesota Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton aims to be absolutely fair to-
all enterprises which are being pro-
NOTED. Those that are working for
the welfare of the farmer and the
development of agriculture will be
helped along.

STATE POLITICAL NEWS
By Vance Chapman
"The County Chairman

Unless legal complications inter.
fear with Tennesses ratification Of
women's suffrage, women will have
the ballot in November, and now
what concerns the big fellows. is
| what party or who will be the bene--.
fciary. In Minnesota it means bet3
ter than doubling of the vote and
| the one thing that worries is
whether it will be- an independent:
| vote or be cast as the male head Of
the household directs. That the
novelty of the thing will fairly
swamp the polling places on election
day is generally expected and both
election officials and the King
Makers are in fear and trembling as
the final day grows nearer. Some
are skeptcal; a few predict trouble
and others are agreed that it is the
! dawn of a new day for the friends of
good government. Without any at
tempt at concealment, however,
party heads are very much in the
air and they will not feel at ease
until it is over. Anticipating the
coming suffrage for the fair sex,
! Chairman adams Of the Republican
state forces weeks ago made arrange
ments for the proper garnerirg of
the new addition to the ballot and
he had close second in Chairman
| Everett OF the State Democratic
committee, who directed that no
stone be left unturned in an effort
to convert women voters to the
beauties of Democracy. That the
Non Partisan League has not over
looked the new voting element goes
without saying and that other poll
tical otfshoots are preparing to grab
their quots is presumed. All around
it is a bird Of scramble and the
race is not altogether to- the swift.
There are few precedents to- work
on and hope is the only watchword
| There is suspicion in the minds
of some that Cyrus M. King of Deer
River, the gubnatorial candidate of
the Farmer-Labor forces is playing
a little game, and that the little
game runs Boss Townley's way.
King, we have been told, has refused
to give way to DIR. Henrik Shipstead,
who ToWnIey has again picked to
represent the Nonpartisan League in
gubernatorial way, thus compelling
the Glenwood dentist to. take on the
handicap Of an independent label, but
it is of note that King has said that
he would not retire, or has Townley
seen fit to rush into print with line
of abuse because of Kings reported
stand. Leaguers close to the throne
say that King will retire and that
the Farmer-Labor ticket will be Gle
organized all down the line. One of
the inovations will be woman can
didate for either Secretary of State
or State Treasurer. The official bal
lot will not be closed until October
and in the meantime most anything
can happen. At the present time
the League has petitions out in every
congressional district in the state
and will have a congressional candi-
date in each. If the Fa1mer-Lab
crowd permits it they will carry the
Farmer Labor LABEL.
The Minnesota Star, daily pub
ication, the creation of Boss Town
ley of the Nonpartisan League, was
launched this week with Minneapolis
as the place of publication. It
