Chicago.-A successor to the Farm.
ers Finance corporation, the 100000,
600 fiscal subsidiary Of the United
States Grain Growers. Inc. on an ever
greater scale is under consideration by
the United States Grain Growers. Inc,
who are the directors of the finance
corporation. 1t was announced.
The information came from ]. NJ.

sent to the directors for their opinion
on certain changes, but that all had

The Farmers Finance corporation was
Incorporated in Delaware but encoun-

missions Of Indiana. Minnesota and
other states, largely, it was said. be-
cause Of the concentration Of power in
the board of directors.
The fact Of the matter Is that we
sought at this time to finance only
grain, where as in the long run cotton,
tobacco, livestock and other farm pro-
ducts must be financed" said Presi-
dent Howard. "Ohio and Iowa have
already arranged for state financing
corporations, while Nebraska and Min
nesota farmers are considering similar
action. Assuming that other states
will follow in line. there would seem
to be need for a sort of national clear
ing house for them and sentiment
seems to be that this should be broad
enough to care for all needs of the
cooperative movement. instead of
grain alone. The board of directors
would represent all lines of agricul-
ture. instead Of grain alone as at pres

ARDMORE GOLFERS TO
COMPETE IN STATE
AMATEUR TOURNAMENT

Ardmore will be strongly represented
at the state amateur golf tournament
which will be conducted at Oklahoma
City June 1916, and there is a great
possibility that several of the tro-
phies will be brought back to this
city, judging by the calibre Of the lo-
car entrants.
Among those who have signified
their intention Of attending and parti-
cipating in the events are the fol-
lowing members of the Dornick Hills
country club: Sherman Pyle. John Ed
wards. John Dexter, Arthur Straehley,
ex-governor Lee Cruce, Perry Maxwell.
Joe Echols. o. G. Lasher Jack Gu
sack. Senator John Carlock, Writ
Franklin and Rees Evans.
Sherman Pyle and John Edwards
are considered as the strongest con-
testants who will participate as rep
resentatyes of Ardmore. Hon. Lee
Cruce, Perry Maxwell, Joe Echols and
Senator Carlock are also rated as
weilders of a wicked stick.
The links at Oklahoma City where
the tournament will be staged, have
been thrown open for all who desire to
practice on them during this week,
without cost.
An entrance fee of SO will be
charged to all who desire to compete in
the Tournament.
