THE COUNTY FARM
BUREAU MEETS
JAN. 81

A special meeting of the County
Farm Bureau directors was held In
the county court house on January
81. with President Ephraim Berge-
son presiding. AT this meeting Mr..
W. J. Funk made motion which
was carried. that the writer furnish
an article for publication in the 10
cal papers setting forth the proceed
ings OF the meeting. Accordingly
we respectfully submit the following.
Not only were the directors of the
bureau present but many of the 9TH
or officers were in attendance and
very enthusiastic meeting was he'll.
President Bergeson gave an extend "a
report of the convention OF the Uteh
State Farm Bureau held in Salt I.lfe
City January 26, II and rs. lac
went into detail on the worl; of the
sugar beet committee and also re-
ported the fact that the sugar conf
panies with the exception of the In
dependent company. refused to meet
with the committee to consider the
beet contract for 1920.
Mr.. Bcrgeson urged that the farm
bureau act uuon the suggestion of
the sugar beet committee and sign
the contract drawn up by that com
mittee and present same to the SUI
gar companies. II they refuse to ac-
cept, then we do the next best thing
and raise other crops.
Mr.. Warren Schow asked as to
what attitude other county organiza-
% tons were taking with regard to the
question. Vice President J. II.
Meikle answered that they were all
, unanimous in standing in opposition
to a $12 contract offered by the SUI
gar companies. Mr. Meikle who was
also a delegate 10 the convention, al
, so gave II short report of same.
Mr.. w. j. Funk who was also a
delegate to said convention spoke a,
length on the work that was dont
there in the interest of the sugar
beet industry and felt that the farm
= -ers should demand the recognition
. due them from the sugar companies
A fair deal is all the farmers asl
and this they propose to demand.
The attitude Of some of the suga
company officials are too imperious
. judging by the way in which the,
ignored the invitation of the farm

New Brunswick
Records Score
Decided Hit

After several months OF expectant
waiting the trade has received the
first list of the new brunswick rec
ords. which mark the most recent
expansion of the brunswick Bake
Collender Co. The announcement of
these new records by one of the lead
ing talking machine companies has
created great interest in trade circles
and the records already in the hands
of Brunswick dealers throughout the
country have everywhere been re-
ceived with the greatest enthusiasm.
The rise OF the Brunswick has been
rapid and the opening of the new re-
cording laboratories completes the
balance Of the organization and al
fords a fitting supplement to the
Brunswick photograph. Record
pressing plants are now located in
Long Island City and northern New
York and others are nearing compile
ton in Jersey City and Toronto, Can
As soon as the new plants are ready
and the new process installed the
production Of Brunswick records will
grow by leaps and bounds.
/ The primary consideration in th'
selection Of the Brunswick record lis
isfhat II shall be consistent with
the avowed policy of good music
first. The list will be made up o
both popular and standard music
comprehensive in scope and RENDERED
by q staff of leading artists.
The Organization of men who ar
in charge of the new records is com
prised of individuals who have hat
a wide experience in the talking ma
chine field and whose musical tram
ing and reputation make them CON
petent to produce record cataio
which the company will compare wit
=. the best now before the public.

The ordinance provides tax of
so cents thousand pounds on to-
bacco. Last year the tax was 7-1-2
cents a thousand pounds. The in
crease was made because the last
legislature reduced the ad valorum
tax on tobacco from s1.65 on the
500 to only Is cents. The tobacco
dealers appeared to request that
the tax be placed at 25 cents the
same as greensboro. Mayor John
son appointed committee compos-
ed of Smith, Hall and caves to meet
the dealers next Monday night to
discuss he matter.
