Credits and Finances.

The crude manner of financing
the farmer was discussed. 1t was
suggested to have a loan of sufi-
cient time to enable the farmer to
hold IN crops and not to demand of
him to put it on the market at the
low price. 1t was understood that
the farmer has moral obligation
to the world but he should be sufi-
GENTLY financed to stop the mar
keting at the time of low prices.
Livestock and Poultry Diseases.
Realizing that the farmers suffer
tremendous losses from livestock
and poultry diseases, it was decided
to hold four meetings for discuss
ion of livestock diseases and hold q
discussion Of poultry diseases at all
poultry culling demonstrations. A
qualified Veterinarian from the Ex-
tension Department at Ames was
to handle the livestock diseases and
che County Club leader, the poul-
try disease meetings.
Feeding Of Livestock aad Poultry
1t was decided to hold two-dav
Dairy schools to get q better idea
of feed and care of dairy herds. To
hold at least two poultry culling
demonstrations in each Township
for past year and as many for COM
ing year as there was demanded.
At these demonstrations it was de-
cided to have complete explana-
ton of how to pick out the nom
layers and get ideas on care and
better housing Of poultry.
Soil Acidity.
Believing that we should have a
better idea as to trouble of getting
stand to clover and alfalfa, that a
concentrated effort should be made
to have the soil tested by individual
test by the County Agent and test
ing in groups by specialist from
Extension Department.
Yellow Spots on Hillsides.
There was demand for assist
ance in getting rid IF the Push soil
on the hillsides. 1t was suggested
that farmers cooperate and use
some of the methods as used in
demonstration by the Union

Problems confronting Audubon
county farmers as collected from
meetings:
The problems of marketing and
transportation were the most PROM
inent problems and are the ones
that concern US most vitality The
problems of labor, credits and f.
nances, legislation, cost of produc-
ton, livestock and poultry diseases,
feeding and care of livestock and
poultry, soil acidity, soil erosion,
yellow spots on hillsides, keeping
bows land girls interested on the
farm, and home conveniences, were
other problems mentioned.
1t was decided to organize two
Livestock Shipping Associations to
strengthen and insist improving
the Associations formed. The
common opinion was that we need
to start the market from this end
and keep following our product
further 10 the consumer. The
time has come when the farmer
should be running his own business
and carry bis product further than
he has in the past as conditions
and times are demanding this

Labor

Labor
Labor has been scarce and it was
the opinion Of the meetings that a
uniform scale wage should be rec
commended and held as nearly as
possible. That the Farm Bureau
Office should serve as q free employ
ment bureau and be an instrument
in getting the job and laborer to-
gether. Various means to keep the
laborers on the farm were discussed
but no definite solutions offered.

should do, was discussed. A def
mite outline of work was made.
For the coming year the work was
outlined from questioneers.
Some problems are beyond the

To the President and Board of
Directors and Members of the Au-
dubon County Farm Bureau:
The past year has been a most
busy one for every one connected
Ii any official capacity with the
Farm Bureau work throughout the
State. know you approach the
present annual session Of your
membership with broader vision
Of the objects and aims Of your or
eanization than at any previous
time in its history. tits a matter
NJ self-congratulat,on to know
$hat the Farm Bureaus and the
Federation are today being recog-
aised by every business organiza-
lion in the land. There is no
event of Importance considered
throughout the land today by any
group Of industrial, commercial,
fnancial or agricultural interest
vllhout giving due recognition to
ahe Farm Bureau organisations.
his in itself is Of the most vital
Importance IS the first requisite to
smere perfect understanding be-
tween different interests is the rec
sognition by al of the due relation
Of each to the other before either
can obtain to any kind of assured
stability. Heretofore the farmer
has not been in q position to de-
nand this recognition because OF
his lack of organization in such
stable form as to give him the pres
&ige his interests demanded. With
this newly acquired position by
che farmer, through his organize
ton, of meeting with all the other
interests he assumes position re-
curing Of him not only business
judgment from q wide range OF
vision. but also the added RESPONSE
bility of having q thorough BUSH
ness organization back Of him and
. membership with full and lnti-
mate knowledge of the aims and
objects of the organization. In
order to make assurance doubly
sure and bring the county organi-
sations up to a point of efficiency
which will command the wholesome
respect of every other interest, !
know you will pardon me for max
ing a few pertinent observations
with regard to the work of the
County Farm Bureaus that is
deemed to be for the real good Of
the organization.
Officers
1t is hoped that all of the officers
of your County Farm Bureau for
the coming year will make firm
resolution to do every thing in
their power to encourage support
Of the organization by every indi-
vidual member; that each execu
tive officer, every director and all
sooperators will regularly attend
every meeting of their organiza-
ton; that the most whole-hearted
support will be given to the County
Agent in order that his work may
be more effective, and his efforts
may not be dissipated through
lack of cooperation Of Indifference
On the part of these who should be
his strongest supporters.
Proxram Of Work for 1871
Carelessness in handling of the
Bureaus finance has caused some
embarrassment. The Iowa Farm
Federation was not accredited
With full representation because
come counties had not paid theil
dues. This was very embarrass
ing to the Iowa delegation as tn,
whole country had been led to be
iieve that Iowa had the larges
membership Of any state. Thi
was true, but lack of payment O
dues prevented us from taking rep
resentation according to our mem
bership. 1t was true that the in
aividual member had not failed t,
pay his dues, only in rare instance
