NEW FARM BUREAU
 |SORGAN|zED IN THE
 GLENDALE DISTRICT

GLENDALE. March 14.-A meeting was held on Monday night. March IA, at the Glendale high school for the pur- pose of organizing the local bureau of the American Farm Bureau Fedora tion. A large number of representative farmers of the Glendale district turned out to hear the speakers and to vote on the election of the officers that are to head the local organization.
 Chairman G. A. White opened the meeting and told for what purpose it had been called and then introduced the special speaker for the evening, c. S. Brown the president of the bureau for the state of Arizona. MT. Brown spoke of the value to the farmer be- | longing to the organization, and the great benefits there were to be derived 1 from making this one hundred per cent organization, as it would be means of making it possible for the 1 farmer to realize something that would recompense him for the labors of the farm. He gave one striking ex- | ample of how the farm bureau through | its national organization had made it possible for the stopping of legislation | that was to have been passed that would place a 10-cent tax on all butter | that was made from sour cream. | Through proper instruction to the leg islators from the different states by the farm bureau, the bill was killed ! siIlo dldC0 III AtSplliS lilt 1'iS, IVY from gaining control of the butter in dustry. Another example that he gave | was to repeat the figures that were given out some time ago by Senator Capper relative to the price of wheat, and what it ultimately cost the con- sumner. Four and one-half bushels of II Kansas wheat brought the farmer Ss.65: this in turn brought the miller Il S12.50: the baker received S57.00 for his product, and when it had reached the table of a fashionable hotel in Washington it brought $57o. In clos ing his remarks for the evening MT. Brown reviewed many of the points that were expressed on last Monday night by MT. Cummings and he asked the farmers of the Glendale community to get in behind this and make 1t a huge success.
 The next speaker on the program was Professor Davis of the dairy division of the University of Arizona, and he l spoke only for a few moments: but made his points on the dairy industry very lasting and asked the farmers to . make sure that when the purchased cows for their dairy herds, to be sure and get the best, as ir would pay in the long run. MT. Davis stated that to put the dairy industry on paying basis it was necessary to bear in mind these four things: Good dairy cows plenty of feed, quality of the COW, and the market He stated that it was use less to purchase cows that did not test out to produce over 250 pounds of fat per year and that if this was adhered
 to. the dairy industry would soon be l very profitable. He also spoke oi markets and the cooperative market ing plan.
