Cooperative Livestock Shipping

Up to the present time it has really
been impossible for us to get down
to brass tacks on cooperative live
stock shipping in Iowa However,
through the efforts of the Iowa Farm
Bureau Federation we now have new
cooperative laws which will enable
the shipping associations to put their
business on more solid footing.
Anticipating the passage of these bills,
committee Of five men has been
busy re-organizing the plan Of CO.
operative marketing. They have worked
out new bylaws and articles OF in
corporation and producers contract
for use of local shipping associations,
and articles Of Incorporation and by
laws for county or district associa-
ton. All Of these have been approved
by the secretary of safe so that no
association will encounter any difficult
ty in having same filed and recorded.
In fact we will be glad to take care
of this for them.

WHOOP1NG COUGH

This is a very dangerous disease,
particularly to children under five
years of age, but when no paregoric,
codeine or other opiate is given, is
easily cured by giving Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. Most people believe
that it must run its course, not know
ing that the time is very much short
ened, and that there is little danger
from the disease when this remedy
is given. 1t has been used in many
epidemics of whooping cough, with
pronounced success. 1t is safe and
pleasant to take.-For sale by A. G..

Farm Bureau Conference

A conference was held last week
at Cedar Falls for all the Farm Blu
reau officers, directors and County
Agents in the Third congressional
district. Close to a hundred Farm Blu
reau officials were present.
The meeting was called to order
by Pres. Hunt, and A. L. Middleton,
q member of the Committee of Seven
teen, was chosen chairman. Most of
the afternoon was taken up by the
talks from representative of each
county present, as to the Farm Bureau
Collections and township meetings.
All the Farm Bureaus are in good
financial condition and have lost very
few members in the past year. Some
counties reported having difficulty with
banks who had sent out letters to
the farm bureau members asking
whether they should pay the member
ship dues. The general sentiment Of
the meeting was that action such as
this was direct stand against the
Farm Bureau by any bank that their
patrons should be SO informed. AS
a whole the Farm Bureaus are very
enthusiastically supported by their
members in spite of the deflation and
depressions.
Murl Mcdonald, County Agent lead
err, gave brief discussion on the
methods and procedure of collections,
emphasizing the importance Of thor
ough business methods carefully APP
piled in our financial transactions as
well as careful and complete office
to encourage these gatherings for the
purpose Of discussing local problems
and Farm Bureau activities.
Mr.. Hunt gave very interesting
review of the Federation activities.
He says that II the Farm Bureau fails
we will go back fifty years. The con-
dition Of the country is deplorable.
You have all heard that if the farmer
had stayed at home and not built
churches, and schools, If he had not
spent any money, and If he had not
bought the cursed automobile, We
would have been in good shape. But
who wants to live without them? They
say the farmer should. If we are able
to maintain the mode Of living pre-
vious to the war, maintain our schools
and churches and living conditions
we must work together. This can only
be accomplished by organizing. Are
you going to stick?
Either labor will have to go down
and the mortgage banker must come
down, or we will go up. We must
meet on even ground and go to-
gether There is danger within and
without, but 1t is greatest without,
because those on the outside are trying
to poison the minds of those within
They are going to try to put the
officers in bad and cause dissention.
They are organized for this purpose.
The burden rests on the individual
but more specially on the local Of
ficers who are the connecting link.
The activity in your township depends
on your directors and co-operators. |
There is work to be done, every man
in the Organization must be reached
and the situation explained. Keep in
formed. Get togther and work out your
problems In the township. Make rec
concentrations. Let us know what
you need. We can't read your minds. |
Poison sounds good where ignorance
exists. Township meetings are most
Outsiders say we are doing moth
ing and have been costing too much.

Delaware Co. Farm Bureau

Isn't it surprising how they worry
about the amount you spend on your
organization? They should also tell
you what you should do with it.
| 1t is not only what we have done
but also what we have hindered from
being done. For instance, the Federal
Reserve Bank was going to call for
liquidation. They planned to make
Iowa pay up, but at the time of the
Bankers Conference we showed them
our situation and they wanted to know
why Iowa was in worse condition than
the adjoining states. Illiois and In
diana got cars to get their corn to
market. We didn't When the farmers
of Iowa should have had cars they
were sent through sealed to Sioux
City and Minneapolis to the empty
warehouses. Iowa feeds cattle and
hogs and both have been losing thou
sands of dollars in the state.
Farmers never have had an or
ganization before that would speak
but we have now. The, Farm Bureau
is in touch with Congress and through
their efforts many harmful bills have
been killed. The delegation has COM
bined in Congress to put over needed
legislation. The east is combined, and
now the south, middle west and the
west are getting together, and the
Farm Bureau is in touch with them all.
The Smooth bills was killed this
week. This bill was aimed at the
Federal Farm Loan Banks to cripple
them. The second of the Federal
Mortgage bill has been introduced to
get out Of the clutches Of the mort
gage bank.
In the Iowa legislature eighteen
Farm Bureau bills were posted. In
regard to the Constitutional Conven
ton there is only one thing to say.
The people voted to hold the conven-
ton last fall at the general elections,
and the legislature refused to do as
the people of the state directed. We
want taxation equalized and Farm
Loan Act for Iowa. This cannot be
done without a constitutional con
yenti0n.
