ready for sale.

ceiyed from Mr.. v. G. Warner, secre-

ISOLATION.
II have been trying to get some news
for you for several days since we
came to Chicago. Sorry to report
that we have sold no Iowa wool in
the last few weeks. Only one half OF
the 1920 wool being sold.
"Have just completed arrangements
so that the eonsignors of the 1920 wool
will receive part payment of 10 cents
per pound in advance of settlement on
all wool shipped through pools grad
ing low u and up. On the consign-
ments that have been entirely sold the
account will be rendered in full. l
hope this will be appreciated by the
consignors as it will make an addi-
tional amount of work. Please ex-
plain fully that this 10 cents a pound
is a part payment and not settlement
in full. Those who have ordered
blankets will have their settlements
later.
eve have received more than mil
lion pounds of 1921 wool. wish you

FARM BUREAU NOTES

An early downward readjustment o.
railroad freight rates is the objective
OF campaign launched by the Iowa
Farm Bureau Federation at a meet
\ ing of the Executive Committee Of the
organization held in Des Moines, July
7th and 9Th.
The plan is to make the movement
as general as possible by urging all
other organizations Of farmers, mer-
chants, bankers, manufacturers and
commercial bodies to cooperate, in this
way developing comprehensive cam
paign and concerted advance along
the entire line of business industry.
To this end the Federation officials
were instructed to confer with the
leaders of other organizations in Iowa,
both farm and commercial, in order to
mobilize public sentiment, after which
the campaign would be carried into
other Middle West States.
The Federation has been quietly
gathering data and working informa-
ton for some time preparatory to in
augurating some such movement. The
situation has been studied from every
possible angle that promised light on
the subject. The principal fact to be
faced is that practically nothing in the
way of farm products and livestock is
moving, simply and solely because
freight rates absorb too large pro-
portion of the selling price of the pro-
duct shipped.
1t had been suggested to the FEEDER
alton that the fight for eadjustment
OF rates be divided among the various
business industries-grain men to
work for reductions on grain, livestock
men to look after livestock rates, while
the merchant, the manufacturer, ct.
al. should each tackle his own problem.
After extended investigation the
Federation decided to oppose that plan
OF procedure, principally on the
ground that it would mean series Of
1ong-drawn contests and hearings, in
the course of which there might be a
tendency on the part Of the railroads
to revert to the pre-war plan of in
Greasing the rates on some commod-
tiles when compelled to back up on
others.
The Federation insists that a gen.
eral downward REIMBURSEMENT of rates
is the only means of rehabilitating the
business interests of the country, the
railroads included, and general re-
adjustment can be accomplished only
by united action by all concerned.

MARKET YOUR CHICKENS EARLY

Do not allow your cockerels to grow
to full size before you market them
After a cockerel weighs two pounds
it takes more feed to produce each
successive pound of weight than to
produce either of the first two, and
you won't get so much per pound for
it as you would have obtained for 1t
as broiler or fry.

for one day. Wear your old clothes
feel right at home and know every,
body. This is a farmer picnic and one
to be remembered.
The fairgrounds at Manchester was
chosen because Of being the most CEN
trally located with plenty of grass
shade and water. The Dyersville band
will furnish music during the day and
we all enjoy a good band. The speak
ers could not be better for this kind
of picnic. G. w. Hunt, president OF
the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, is
a big man with a big job and will give
you more facts than you can get in any
other way. He is broad minded enough
to see all sides of a question. Peder
Peterson, who talks in the forenoon,
enjoys a good joke and likes to tell
them. II you haven't heard him, now
is your chance.
The quartette, who will sing for us,
is composed Of two men from Earl
vile and two men from Delhi. They
sing together great deal and are
favOriteS wherever they go.
Two base ball games will be played
during the day. A team from the north
of the county will play one from the
south half at 10 A. M. The game in
the afternoon at $3.50 is between
Buchanan County and Delaware
County Farm Bureaus There is no use
talking, this game is going to be
lot of fun. We have some of the old
as well as the new professionals on
these teams and they are playing for
money. While the baseball is going
on we will have the races and horse
shoe pitching. Horse shoe pitching is
one Of the big events Of the day and
there will be great many entering.
There will be merry-go-round, ice
cream stand, ladies rest tent, etc.

of declining prices, slackening demand
End general depression which was to
continue without interruption for the
next ten months.
The return to normal state has been
a slow, tedious and. to many members
of the trade, disasterously expensive
process. but there is evidence that it
has been practically completed and
that the situation now, almost for the
first time since the beginning of the
war, is healthy and natural one, fav-
oring substantial and normal progress.
The most significant and important
change in the situation as compared
with year ago is that the enormous

by dealers, manufacturers, and to an
extent by consumers. have now been
