FARM ORGANIZATIONS
OUTLINE PLANK FOR
CAMPAIGN PLATFORM

Recognition for farmers will be ask

the two great political parties at theil
June conventions by representatives
Of the various farm organizations OF
the country. This action was decided
at the closing of the two-day meeting
of the national board of farm organiza

According to Charles A. Lyman, ma
tional secretary of the board, 1T was
the general opinion of the delegates
that the food producers never had re
ceived the attention of either the Re
publican or Democratic party to which
they were entitled. It was their pur
pose, he said. to send representatives
to the Chicago and the San Francisco
conventions with demands that they
be recognized in the formation OF
party platforms and to throw the
weight OF their support at the Novem

FARMERS GET IN MUCH
WORK DURING WEEK

A summary of weather and crop
conditions in Indiana for the week, by
J. H. Arlington. of the indianapolis
weather bureau, follows:
Light showers fell on several days
in the extreme southern part of the
state. Elsewhere the week was most
ly without rainfall except on Tuesday.
Temperature continued a little below
normal, but the readings were mostly
moderate and sunshine was abundant.
AS result, vegetation made more
rapid progress than in any previous
week of the season, and farm work
suffered no interruption except in the
recently flooded bottom lands of the
southwest, where the soil continued
40 wet to work well. In fact, in
;4host other parts of the state the
ground dried out so rapidly as to be-
come crusty and hard, and showers
were beneficial.
