Producers To Be
Foundation For
Marketing Plan
Head of = American Farm
Bureau to Call Conference
For Purpose of Ratifying
Cooperative Plan.

That the producers cooperative

foundation of the national marketing
plan of the farmers live stock mar
keting committee of Is is the an
nouncement made of the committees
tentative plan, according to word re-
ceived by the Nebraska Farm Bu-
reau federation.
Arrangements have already been
made for the establishment OF pro-
ducer owned and controlled commits
sion company at the National Stock
Yards, East St. Louis, and a special
committee has been appointed with
authority to select the board of di-
rectors for this organization.
President James r. Howard OF
the American Farm Bureau fedora
ton has been requested to call j
conference of the live stock produ-
GERS of the nation between October
IS and November / for the purpose
of ratification of the plan of the
committee of IS.
The essential features of the plan
to be submitted at that time will
deal specifically with the co-opera-
tive live stock shipping associations
controlled by the growers in their
communities. These associations will
hold membership in the terminal live
stock commission associations which
in turn will hold membership in the
National Association of Live Stock
Producers. Individual growers may
also secure membership in the ter
minal associations. However, nc
contract signed by the growers /:
contemplated.
The terminal live stock commits
sion associations provide for the es.
tablishment of producer owned and
controlled live stock commission
companies at the markets where
needed. The demand for this or
ganization must come from the pro-
ducers themselves, who will thereby
pledge their support in advance
Subsidiary to the live stock commits
sion company, it is planned to estab-
lish a stocker and feeder company

back to the consignor members
The commission associations are tc
be governed by a board of five tc
nine members, this board to select
the manager and other employees and
also direct the policy of the associa'
ton. The earning of the association
will be pro-rated back on the patron,
age dividend plan. The board is tc
be selected by the delegates to the
national convention and the voting
to be apportioned on the basis o.

Movement to Aid
Oklahoma Cattle
Raisers Started
Southern Banks Back of Plan
To Educate Farmers--May
Ship Illinois Steers to
Sooner State.

Chicago TrIbune-O Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago. Aug. 2l.-Eugene Arnett
of Oklahoma City arrived in Chicago
Yesterday in the interest Of CAM
paign to raise the standards of cat
tie raising in the southern states.
According to Mr.. Arnett. the banks
OF the south and the government are
back of plan to take Illinois steers
south and to educate the farmers in
stock raising instead OF purely crop
growing activities.
The movement started in Okla
homa, where the banks become tired
OF carrying small farmer loans when
the agriculturalists appeared to be
using the wrong tactics. Eighty
nine per cent Of the banks OF Okla
homa got together and decided TO
make no more one-crop basis loans
to farmers unless the borrowers
would try methods advocated by the
government farm experts.
A survey showed that 40 per cent
of the southern farms were with
out a single head of stock and that
farmers were seeking to get living
only from one crop. After the farm
ers have been prepared to care tor
cattle, agents of an appraisal COM
mittee are to go through the dairy
districts of Illinois and buy thou
sands OF steers for shipment south.
These steers, according to Mr.. Ar
nett, will serve the needs OF the
southern farmers as well as high
priced bulls raised only for breeding

Insects Damage
Nebraska Crops
Crasshoppers Most Prominent
Pests During July and Early
Part of August.

During latter July and early Au-
gust, grasshoppers were the most
prominent insect pests on the cereal
and forage crops of Nebraska. In
addition to the southeastern coun-
ties mentioned in the last report,
grasshoppers were reported as Sc
riously injurious at places in Knox,
Custer and Saline counties.
Shortly after the middle OF July
an outbreak of the chinch bug de-
veloped in Knox county in north
eastern Nebraska. The bugs were
first noticed in the barley fields and
when that was harvested they mi
grated to the corn and did a con.
Siderable amount of damage in some
of the fields.
During the middle of July there
was an unusual abundance of a beetle
ularis in Kimball, Cheyenne. Deuel.
and Morrill, counties and as they
we're found abundantly in the wheat
fields, their presence caused consid-
cradle comment. They fed, how
ever, only on certain weeds and in
a few instances on beets and did no
serious injury.
The striped blister-beetle contin-
ued injury during latter July on al
falia and potatoes, especially IN
Thayer and Adams counties. In Da-
kota county garden truck was in
jured by the gray blister-beetle. and
in southern Jefferson county pota-
toes and beets were locally consid-
erably injured by the banded black
blister-beetle.
The greatest number of complaints
of injury by insect pests during the
month ending August IS were IN re-
lation to attacks on strawberry beds.
blue grass lawns and growing
plants by white grubs. A Dodge
county nursery suffered serious in
Jury to seedlings through these pests
and some reports of injury to gram
fields were received.

dant on shade trees and the fall web.
worm has been disfiguring many

Of Nebraska during the month. In
Jury by the elm borer and the poplar
borer has been very frequently com
planned of during the month. The

ed have been the white elm scale
and the oyster shell scale.
Probably as result of the prev
alence of brood diseases among the
bees, more than the usual amount Of

Turkey yielded.
A county agent in western Nebras-
ka has reported to L. E. Call, agron-
cmist of the Kansas experiment sta
tion, where kanred was developed,
that the variety averaged six bushels
at acre better than Turkey and
Kharkof.
But there have been iisappoint-
ments, too. One case has turned a
good many farmers away from kan
red, while the very nature of the cir-
cumstances has only served to make
others more determined 10 give the
wheat better chance.
A certain Kansas farmer living in,
county adjoining Nebraska, sold a
car load of kanred whear to a group
CT farmers across the line. 1t netted
the Kansasan a clear profit of $500
above what he could have got on the
market for the grain. The neat lit
tie profit suggested a temptation
which he was not able to resist. Being
unable to note any essential differ
ence in the appearance of kanred and
! Turkey, he reasoned that he might
as we'll sell the latter for seed also.
! But kanred was commanding pre-
ferred prices, SO he determined to
sell his Turkey as kanred. Nebraska
farmers in the adjoining county
bought it. The deception might
never have been discovered had not
those who bought the seed applied
for inspection this year. The inspec-
, ton was refused as an examination
proved that in some cases the grow
ers had no kanred at all and in others
a $3.50 mixture. The seller now faces
a lawsuit and possible prosecution
for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses.
Adapted to Great Plains.
Kanred is we'll adapted to the
many varying conditions of the
Great Plains area, including west
ern Oklahoma and Kansas, all Of
Nebraska and South Dakota: the
intermountain districts of Montana;
eastern Colorado, and the Panhandle
|of Texas. 1t has yielded better than
other varieties in the hard wheat
regions of Iowa, Illinois, and Mis-
souri,.
Its principal advantage over Tur-
key and Kharkof is it's resistance
to some forms of both stem and
1eaft rust. 1t also has greater winter
hardness and earlier maturity. These
factors have caused it to outyield
ether wheats in most sections of
central and western Kansas, the
state in which it was developed, as
we'll as other states into which it
has been introduced.
In order to insure the perpetuation
Of supply of pure seed year after
year, an organization of about 800
progressive Kansas farmers, known
as the Kansas Crop Improvement
association, was formed several
years ago. Cooperating with the
Kansas state agricultural college, the
association conducts an inspection of
fields thought to be pure Kanrad.
Persons buying seed through the as
sociation are practically insured
against deception.

Lincoln, Aug. 2l.--The insect con-

icus localities the pests were more

Sugar Beet Webworm.
In the North Platte valley there
was a plentiful flight of moths of

"An unusual abundance of beetle
ularis in Kimball, Cheyenne, Deuel.

the middle of July" according to
the report, "and as they were found
abundantly in the wheat fields their
presence caused considerable anxi-
iety. With the exception of few
patches of beets, they did no serious
injury"
Continuing, the report says:
"The greatest number Of COM
plants of injury by insect pests dur

attacks on strawberry beds, blue
grass lawns and growing plants by
white grubs. A Dodge county gar
den nursery suffered serious injury
to seedlings through these pests and

Many Nebraska Producers
Endorsing Kanred Wheat
New Variety Said to Yield Larger Returns and With
stand Weather Conditions Better Than Many
Other Kinds-Reported to Resist
Rust Well

After a thorough trial of kanred
wheat, the variety which is rapidly
displacing Turkey and Kharkof in
the hard wheat belt, an increasingly
large number of Nebraska growers
from every section of the state are
indorsing it for general use in prefer
ence to the sorts commonly grown.
In the eastern part of the state, as
we'll as in southern Iowa, northern
Missouri and central Illinois, kanred
outyielded Turkey and Kharkof be-
cause of its rust resistance. 1t pro-
duced better yields than these va
rieties in western Nebraska as
we'll as eastern Colorado, eastern
Wyoming and the intermountain dis
tricts OF Montana, because Kanred
has greater winter hardness and
earlier maturity, in addition TO its
greater rust resistance.
The variety has made no better
record anywhere than in northwest
ern Kansas and adjoining portions
of Nebraska. One of the largest and
most successful growers IS Albert
Weaver of Cheyenne county, Kan
sas, just across. the state line from ON
Nebraska. Last year he sold S4oOoC
worth of seed and would have had
1900 acres for pure seed this season.
