BENSON, Jan. 3.-According to
previous announcement a number OF
the Benson farmers met Friday night
with Mr.. II. l.. Wrigley of Logan ana
Mr.. j. II. Meikle of Smithfield in the
Benson meeting house in the interest
of the Farm Bureau. Mr.. w. }.
Funk was elected president and W.
G. Reese secretary.
Mr., Wrigley very interestingly eX-
planned the object of this organiza'
ton and made it very plain that ev-
cry farmer should identify himself
with II, SO that unity of effort may
bring to pass better returns to the
farmers in their various activities.
Better prices may be secured, better
crops produced by the fighting OF de-
structive weeds, pests. such as wee
vii, army worms. sparrows and SPUR
rels. Many thousands of dollars have
been saved in Inc past year by ,n4
work of the bureau in destroying
these things. BY farmers wor. =
and standing together they can on
tain better prices for their crops.
Mr.. Meikle followed along Tic
same line of argument. Having been
a member OF the bureau since il was
first organized in Cache valley 10
knew of the many advantages it haG
proven to the farmer in getting bet
ter prices for his sugar beets, nIa
dairy products and etc. 1t had ais
been helpful in the securing OF hay
and other feed for their animals. He
too, felt that no farmer can consist.
emily stay out of the organization.
Many questions were asked by the
farmers and answered by the visitor:
in most satisfactory manner.
All the farmers but one who Were
present joined the bureau and the
following were elected officers of the
local organization.
w. j. Funk, president; IL. w. Bal
lard, vice president; w. G, Reese
secretary and treasurer; and Howard
Reese and John Kicks as directors.
We expect a valuable work to b,
done during the present year by thi
Organization.

HOME BUILDING CAMPAIGN
Gets Endorsement of Trades
Council

The question of the campaign to be
inaugurated next week for the pur
pose Of inducing everyone to open
a building association account, was
brought to the attention of Trades
Council at its meeting on Tuesday
night. 1t was explained that the pur
pose was to get money into the build
ing associations so that money would
be available to borrowers who desire
to build homes. With more homes be.
ing built, rents can be held down low
er. At the same time, inducing men
to open accounts in the associations
would get them into the habit Of
saving money and make them more
thrifty

movement to the workingman, and
voted to give it every support. To
further show their belief in the move
ment, the delegates voted to make
an immediate deposit of $4,000 of
Councils funds in several building
associations.
