cur geographical location. The mer- chants must depend largely on peo- pie in the immediate neighborhood for business, as there Is no great out lying populated districts he can reach to sell his merchandise. The farmer,
 on the other hand. finds it too far
 to go to find market for lots of the
 haul makes it practically prohibitive for many commodities. He must sell
 at home to home people if he sells
 Yet what do we find? We find abso-
 lutely no understanding or co-opera-
 tion whatever usually. We feel that
 1t might work out pretty well if a o0-
 90 proposition could be agreed upon
 whereby both merchant and farmer
 agree to trade at home for the com
 mon good of themselves and the
 county.
 We must work together if we are
 to build. A merchant can hardly ssiticise a farmer for ordering suit 0. clothes, shoes. etc, from Califor- mia or elsewhere if he is consuming or selling goods and produce that are imported, when he could just as well have been selling or consuming home products. For illustration, take sweet | potatoes. You cannot find a better quality grown anywhere than those grown here. We find a surplus of l fine potatoes on hand and. at the same time. some of our merchants | shipping in potatoes from neighbor- | ing states, thereby adding to what is | already said to be an over supply. ! The home producer, unable to sell, unable to buy or ay taxes. The grower of produce in California, Idaho, Texas or Colorado doesn't l spend much money with the people of Arizona and pays no taxes. It is time all came together on a definite plan | of constructive measures.
 The first thing necessary Is for the | farmers to go to work and systemati- cally grow everything that can be grown here in season; put 1t up in a | first class merchantable condition properly packed and graded in just
 as good shape as can be had else
 where. Have a regular source of sup ! ply. When we do this we can expect
 to sell. Without cooperation, as in
 the past, little progress can be made
 for the common good.

convention of the American Farm Bureau Federation congratulates the officers and members on the splendid accomplishments of the organization during the past year.
 We are proud of the fact that the program outlined ar the second an- nual convention has been carried out to a state of completion in nfany in- stances, and in others to a gratifying stage of progress.
 PLEDGE
 We pledge ourselves anew to carry out the objects of the American Farm Bureau Federation, which are to de- yelop, strengthen and correlate tho work of the State Farm Bureau Fed eration: to encourage and promote cC operation of all representative az ricultural organizations in every ef- fort to improve facilities and condi- tions for economic and efficient pro- duction, conservation, marketing transportation and distribution oi farm products; to further the study and enactment of constructive agri- cultural legislation; to advise witt representatives of the public agricul- tural institutions cooperating witt the farm bureaus in the determlna-
  inform Farm Bureau members re- garding all movements that affec their interests.
 AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT
 We urge, in the contemplated reor- ganiZation of the federal department: at Washington. that the present eff fectiveness and services of the de partment of agriculture be in nowis' %l, !, .1 that the department be further devel- oped to the end that it may serv' even better those whom it is intended to help, in order that the business o agriculture may be put on par witt the other business interests of tn nation.
 TARIFF
 We request of congress the enact ment of tariff legislation at one which will give to the farmers o America that measure of protection that may be necessary to equaliz the difference between the costs o production of farm products in thi country and in competing nations.
 TAX
 We heartily endorse the followinl principles as the foundation of ou national tax policy:
 l. The. measure of ability to pa, taxes for the support of the nationa government is net income, and tn bulk of the taxes should be levied an collected on that basis.
 2. The tax should be progressive that is, the greater the income tn higher the rate.
 8. As this Is a country of all tn people, all the people should hay some part in supporting the govern | ment; hence. a certain part of tn revenue may justly be raised b means of consumption taxes. 4. While recognizing that the frs consideration in any tax measure the raising of revenue, its collaters effects must not be lost sight of an in so far as it Is practicable the taxe should be so laid as to tend to tn distribution of wealth in the hand Of the many and not to its concen | tration in the hands of the few. 5. We are opposed to the issuin Of all tax-free securities, and reques that congress submit constitutions amendment to the several states cure this defect in our tax systen We disapprove the repeal of the eS cess profits tax. We are opposed | the principle of general sales ta, or any similar plan such as the gen 1 eral manufacturers tax. FINANCE We ask:

Cooperation Necessary Between
 Between Town and Country

Between Town and Country
 It would possibly be hard to find a place where the necessity of thorough cooperation between town and coun- try, between business man and farm CT. is a greater necessity than in Arizona and Salt River valley in par ticular. IL would be hard to find a locality where one is more dependent upon the other than here.
 This is trus largely on account of

years"
 A Thing to Consider There seems to be two luxuries that cannot be engaged at the same time. One is, consume the farmers prod ucts at less than cost to him, and the other is to have good business while consuming it. A few things seem i'm possible.
 We seem slow to learn. Don't seem to profit much by experience. We may find out some day that 1t is more important to sell ourselves at profit than to export at a loss. We dare venture the suggestion that some day we will understand that if we could have sold in 1920-21 all the farm products to ourselves at profit that the hundred and five million peo-
 pie could have consumed, and had | burned or given to the starving, | freezing people of Europe the sur plus. business in the United States would have been S5 per cent normal. Perhaps you don't agree. We'll, for | illustration, take a farmer that grew | 100 bales of cotton. Suppose he could
 have sold two thirds at a good price above cost of production. If the other
 35 bales had been burned, he would
 still be in fair shape. But when none l can be sold at a profit he is hard hit We may find out later that if the 1 American farmer must produce under his standard of living enough to sup 1 ply a surplus to export to be sold to people whose standard of living and buying power is so much lower, which surplus has to be sold at price to fit the consuming power of the for eigner. thereby establishing the price at home. Reflecting the cheaper price against all sold 4t home, wreck ing all, so that the surplus created In
 order to have export business be- comes a millstone about ones neck
 Better not have export business un- less 1t is profitable.
