There was considerable dissatisfac-
ton expressed over the manner in
which the reduced fare rates offered
those attending the Farm Crop Show
last week at Crookston, were made
available. Many who had secured cer-
tllcates, which should have entitled
them to the reduced rate, were COM
PEELED to Pay the full fare on their re-
turn trip as they were unable to get
the required endorsements from the
proper officials at the show. The
place where these certificates were to
be validated was inconspicuously mark
ed and frequently those who had charge
OF the work were absent The certiti-
cate system of offering reduced rates
by the railroads is complicated and
cumbersome one at best but better ar
rangements would have given less cause
for complaint and saved money for
those who attended the show.

In the successful complete organiza

ing together, for mutual benefits and
Improved marketing conditions, can
the farmers Of the county and state
arrive at any satisfactory solution of
the present economic conditions, was
the opinion expressed by many at
CrOokston.
Marshall county has taken a long
step forward in this progressive work
There are 35 Farm Bureau units al
ready organized in the county. The Or
carnations, though in their infancy
are practically complete and now the
successful operation Of those enter
Drises is the paramount problem be-
fore the farmers of the county so that
this progressive cooperation will not
have been in vain. There is little
doubt, however, but that the progress
sive spirit which gave birth to these
80 units will nurse them to a fuller
proportions and insure all OF the en-
suing advantages for Marshall county
farmers in the future>
