TAKING NEW STEP
Bingham Farmers Want Better
Marketing. !,

Z. w. stephens, county agricul-
tural agent of Bingham county,
sends the Tribune the following
with request that it be published
for the information Of this locality:
The executive board Of the
Bingham county farm bureau,
realizing the inefficiency of the
present organization in handling
the problems of the farmers of the
county, especially with reference
to the marketing Of the farmers
products, met at the farm bureau
office Wednesday, August 25th, to
consider plans for recognizing
the bureau on basis which would
enable it to devise ways and means
to get for the farmer the cost of
production plus reasonable profit.
The organization has been ham,
pered by certain outside influences
which made it impossible for it 10
deal with the farmers problems in
a business way, especially in
marketing, and it was the unani-
nous decision of the board to re.
organize the farm bureau on San
independent financial basis which
would make it possible for such an
organization to affiliate with the
American Farm Bureau federation
and derive the benefits of an affili-
alton with the national organizas
ton.
The following resolution was
adopted:
Be it resolved that the. executive
board of the Bingham sounty
farm bureau take the propef steps
to organize the Bingham county
farm bureau on an independent
financial basis following the plan
already in successful operation in
Illinois and Michigan, which will
make it possible for US to cooper
ate with and receive the support of
the American Farm Bureau feder.
alton.
The object of this organization
shall be to strive for better market
ing conditions, better facilities for
handling the farmers products and
assist in solving any and all prob
lens conducive to his better
welfare.
The plan of the American Farm
Bureau federation was started from
the county agent system. To pool
their products under the supervis-
ion OF man who had nothing to
do but further their collective
interests was but step toward
marketing that quickly appealed
to the farmers. Experiments
proved satisfactory. From the
vantage ground of several state
wide declarations, such as in
Illinois and Michigan, the all-state,
national organization could easily
be seen as natural development.

Corn Develops Strength
on Aduance in Wheat

The corn market was nervous and
price changes were feverish. There
was an early decline of rs to lAc
under commission house selling,
prompted by liberal receipts at prim-
ary points and absence of frost
throughout the corn belt.
Later the market developed de-
cided strength in sympathy with
wheat, and prices ran up over &c
buslel with continuation Of Thurs
days covering movement. Cash mar
kets again failed to follow the ad-
vance in futures and toward the close
of the day the whole list eased off
rapidly and closed only slightly above
the lowest, with net losses Of ss to

Feverish Changes
I'm Wheat Trading
In Narrow Margin
Canadian Authorities Predict
Large Crop Movement
Soon; Ability of Export
Demand to Absorb Sur
plus Doubted

There were feverish price changes in
the wheat market, and during the day
values moved within a range of about
7c. There was active buying during
the morning on bullish interpreta-
tion of the statistical position, espe-
cially the fact that the receipts at in
terror points are not keeping pace with
the demand. and on the theory that
the entire exportable surplus will be
wanted by Europe.
The advance appeared to have ma
terially checked the export demand,
however, and subsequently prices lost
most of the gains and closed with net
advances of 1aM1&c. Some authori-
ties were inclined to look for an ac-
and from Canada over Labor Day, and
there was good deal of selling on the
bulges on this account.
Ofers from the interior were some
what larger and premiums were a trife
easier.
Leading Canadian authorities pre-
dict that the movement in Canada will
soon assume quite large proportions,
and that the daily receipts during Oc-
tober and November will be about
100000 bushels. 1t remains to be
seen whether or not the export de-
mand will be large enough to absorb
this much wheat, and some leading ex-
porters declare that, while Europe
could probably use the entire North
American surplus if she had money
enough to pay for it, the present weak
ness in foreign exchange makes it nee
essary for buyers abroad to eeonomize
as far as possible in the purchase of
all commodities.
