nors of these states.
Following the example of the Bur-
ley Tobacco Growers association OF
Kentucky, which after securing SIM
liar credit from the war finance cor
poration was enabled to gain all nee
essary funds from state and local
banks, and to repay their 80 day
loans of s6,000,O00 within 40 days.
Officials Of the Virginia-Carolina as
sociation are confident of obtaining
the support of state and local bank
ers for whom the offer of the war
finance corporation opens new field
of profitable cooperation with tobacco
farmers throughout the belt.
For the organized tobacco growers
and the thousands Of farmers from
three states who are joining the as
sociation every month, the action of
the war finance corporation assures
the safe and orderly marketing OF
tobacco which resulted in largely in
creased profits and a new source OF
credit for Kentucky farmers whose
organization has now sold 7O,OOO,0OO
pounds of tobacco for highly satisfac-
tory prices, during one month re-
ceiving an average of 29 cents a
pound for tobacco sold through the
association, while that sold outside
the association brought less than Fl
cents per pound upon the auction
warehouse floors.
Close to 80 per cent. of the to-
bacco farmers Of Virginia have join
ed the marketing association, and
North Carolina growers are Tearing
a Is per cent. sign-up following the
recent statewide campaign for mem
bers.
A whirlwind campaign among to-
bacco farmers of South Carolina be-
gan on Monday, June 26th, and
will continue until every one of the
SO cooperative marketing points OF
the South Carolina belt has been
reached with a mass meeting.
Leaders of the movement from
Kentucky, Virginia and North Caro-
lima will join this campaign which
will mark the last opportunity sto1
South Carolina farmers to market
this years crop with the giant CO.
operative.
The Tobacco Growers Cooperative
association has now secured Zoe
warehouses where it will receive TO-
bacco from it's members as the mar
kets open in three states.

Thirty Millions in
Thirty Minutes

Thirty million dollars in thirty
minutes is the world record estab-
lished by the directors of the largest
cooperative marketing association
of America who met with Eugene
Meyer, Jr., and officials of the war
finance corporation in Washington,
D, c., last week.
The committee of directors from
the Tobacco Growers Cooperative as
sociation secured approval Of the loan
for the $4,000 tobacco farmers of
Virginia, North Carolina and South
Carolina, which now assures the sue
cess of their association beyond a
doubt.
Officers of the War Finance Cor
poration were so familiar with the
management of the association, and
so confident Of success that they took
only thirty minutes to signify ap-
proval of the greatest loan ever made
to organized farmers, in the history
of the United States.
In addition to the loan of $50, 0,0OO,-
900 which will enable the big To-
bacco Cooperative to pay it's mem
bers cash advances upon delivery Of
their tobacco, the war finance cor
poration further agrees to re-dis-
count foans secured by green or soft
order tobacco for local banks
throughout the Virginia-Carolina to-
bacco belt.
The loan of the war finance cor
poration is to be, secured by more
than $50, 100000 pounds of its mem
bers' tobacco now under five years
contract with the Tobacco Growers
Cooperative association, which rep
resents a value of over s70,000,00O
in the first year of operation, &C
cording to conservative estimates.

Wellesley Hills, Mass, July l.
In an interview today Roger w.
Babson appealed to the merchants
to study the "self help" stores. He
believes that the small merchant
has great opportunity if he will only
adopt modern methods and adver-
tise more. He insists that the public
does not demand the Chain Stores
but rather demands economical and
convenient service. People buy from
the chain stores because that is the
only place in their community that
they can get such service, he con-
tinucd.
!. "Chain stores are having a tre-
mendous run today. They are spring
ing up like weeds in every COM
munity. Local merchants arc begin
ming to become panic stricken. They
fear that the chain store s to
swallow up everything. -, Grocers,
druggist, and clothing dealers are
especially troubled. Considering the
tremendous number of small merch.
ants this is a problem in which
everyone should be interested

To have their business wiped out
would result in a tremendous &C.

BALL FANS PROMISED {
THREE FAST CONTESTS
Thief River Falls Will. Play
! Bemidji Team Here Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday

I Bemidji fans have a fine oppor-
tunity Sunday, Monday and Tues
day to witness two first-class base
ball teams in action here. d Thief
River Falls city team and the Be.
midi city team will meet for a
series Of three games, the first to
be played Sunday afternoon ( at
$3.50 at the fair grounds. The Sec
ond will be played Monday after
noon and the third will be part
Of Bemidji's Fourth Of July observ-
ance, although the city lis not cele-
brating this year with a community
program. =. ~ IL
Thief River Falls comes here with
an admirable record and is set on
winning at least two Of the three
games. That city's strongest line
up will make the, trip, it is under
stood. Bemidji is preparing fo.
three hard games and will have its
strongest possible lineup out for al
three games. 4 3d..
Camp and Phibbs will undoubt-
edly form the battery for Bemidji
and practically all Of the regular
players will be back in the, game.
Consequently Bemidji will not be
crippled as it was last Sunday when
the local team lost to 3Brainerd by
a onc-sidel score. a. IT
Hearty public support is urged
for each of the three games. The
Bemidji team is under considerable
expense in bringing Thief River
Falls here and the. financial result
of these three games Wills determine
largely what future games will be
arranged by Bemidji. Indications
are that the Sunday and Tuesday
games will be we'll attended, since
these are not working days. As
many as can are urged TO attend
the Monday game also. Admission
has been set at SO cents Including

HARDING SEEKING END
TO COAL MINE STRIKE.
Calls Upon Striking Miners
and Operators to Resume
Operations at Once
(By United Press)

Washington, duly l President
Harding today called upon the strik-
ing miners and coal operators of
the country to resume mining op-
erations at once and adjust their
differences in joint conferences.
= Speaking before officials, Presi-
dent Harding issued warning to
the warning factions that unless the
strike is settled soon the federal
government in the interest Of the
public will exert its vast power and
force an ending. t.. ,,~,
The President has mentioned the
menace the country faces because
of the dwindling coal supply, and
informed both operators and min
ers that the interest of the public
must be protected and that the gov
eminent proposes to take steps to
that end. Unless the strike is ended
during the conference here they
will be immuncd from the anti
trust laws. Attorney General
Daugherty was present and backed
up the words of the President.
Miners. were frankly pessimistic
when they went to the white house.
John L. Lewis national president
of the United Mine Workers and
union officials stated openly their
opinion that the operators called to
Washington were hand picked and
would never agree to meeting the
miners on a national scale. This
charge was vigorously denied by
the president of the national coal

u The lumber business continues to
be extremely active. Home building
records are being shattered and new
work ID constantly being started.
This construction work assures a con-
tinuance of the demand for building
lumber--a demand which is very. inn
portant to lumber manufacturers and
which has been the backbone Of the
market for the last. two years, ac-
cording to the American Lumber
man. In the meantime, demand for
lumber from industrial and factory
consumers is on the increase and
very shortly large quantities Of Nv
grade stock will be required f6 y

are also making extensive repairs

able quantities Of lumber are, being
taken for this purpose. Production,
orders and shipments are approxi-
mately one-third greater than at the
corresponding time in 1921. .G4
4 Softwood prices are, almost sta-
tionary. Manufacturers as rule are
not making concessions, though some
transit cars are selling at below the
usual market prices. Southern pine
transits are particularly plentiful.
The hardwood market continues to
improve and hardwood prices are
firm, those on the higher, grades show

the lumber industry as a whole, or

duction. Production at present is
approximately at the peak and for

Christmas and one at the Fourth Of

this year will be short, but, inasmuch
as many mills have repairs to make
