RECOMMENDATIONS BY
COMMITTEE OF IL"

Huron, S. Oak, Dec. 21.-The South
Dakota Farm Bureau has just received
the following recommendation on
81 ain marketing from the farmers
marketing committee of II" which
has just been in session at Chicago:
The Farmers Marketing Committee
of Seventeen recommends that the sys
tenn of handling the grain crop of u
country to the best interests of the
producers and the public should in
clude the following:
First-Farmer-owned elevator COM
panies and sales agencies to operate
on the local and terminal markets of
the United States.
Second-Farmers export companies
and sales agencies to operate on rorei,
gn markets for the purpose of handl-
ing the exportable surplus.
Third-The grain growers of the Tn
ited States should as soon as possible
by mutual contract or otherwise ar
range for the sale of all grain on the
basis of cooperative bargaining.
Fourth-That the foregoing shall be
carried into effect with the ultimate
view of the protection of the just
rights of the producer and the orderly
marketing of farm products.
The Committee wishes to assure the
grain producers of the country that II
keenly appreciates the necessity of
prompt action, and that as quickly as
the necessary data can be gathered by
its experts, it will perfect and present
a plan to carry the foregoing princip-
les into effect with the cooperation of
the various existing farmers organiz-
tons interested in gran marketing.
RESOLUTION
RESOLVED: That we deem it moral
~ wrong and highly detrimental to
the interests of agriculture and the
consumers to permit the practice now
in vogue OF selling grain, cotton and
other farm products which the seller
or his principal do not own at time of
sale. This practice is commonly
known as short selling"
RESOLVED: Further, that we do
hereby petition Congress to enact
such legislation as will stop this prac-
tice at the earliest possible date.

INLAND CENTER"
"To a schooihouse center came a
Lonely man one night,
Saw a building filled with folks,
The windows cleaning bright.
Sounded songs of neighbor greeting
Joy that all might share,
It burst the bands that bound his heart
To find a welcome there.
Chorus
It's a short way to Hiland Center.
It's a short way to come;
It's a short way to Hiland Center,
It's right neal my home.
Then Goodbyel Gloomy Evening!
Farewell! Lonesome care!
It's a short way to Hiland Center,
And I'll meet you there.
The lonely mar bethought him
or a lonely girl he knew
Sat him down and wrote a note,
81 have good news for you,
Move into this neighbOrhoOd, for
Here's a trysting place,
A common ground where bars are
down,
And folks meet face to face"
The girl who had been lonely,
Wrote him back this glad reply,
IF you'd dispel my gloominess
And on jolly times rely,
Come right along and get this miss
And to that haven fly.
Perhaps before the year is thru,
You'll see me live in Hiland, too"
Over 125 people were out to take
part in this meeting.
Arrangements were made to COM
plete the committee to work with the
County Agent in formulating the Farm
Bureau program of work for the com
munity. These meetings will have a
business side as we'll as social. Boys
