dressed had to pledge himself to stand
for the Equity against the federation.
II u The fact that President j. R. How
ard of the American Farm Bureau
federation had written a New York
agricultural college man about plan
ming to ambush the Equity in Wiscon-
sin is conclusive proof Of the wide
spread plans on foot. =
i In Iowa the Farmers union is a
powerful organization-so is the Iowa
state union of the American Society of
Equity. The Equity has escaped all
Bureau federation faint in that state.
In Iowa the president of the Farmers
union for two terms a few weeks ago
was Overwhelmingly defeated by the
Union members, because of his Farm
Bureau federation leanings. A new
president, Milo Reno, an outspoken
opponent of the federation, was elect
ed in his place.
It does not need documents to see
what was going on in Iowa, and that
the membership realized it. Even the
Farm Bureau federation newspapers
carried the news of the election of
Milo Reno as victory for the anti
federationists. Iowa farmers have
their eyes open-and incidentally Iowa
is losing it's Farm Bureau federation
membership in tremendous volume
$4,000 less than year ago, and 64,0 900
less than the middle Of the past sum-
mer. Iowa has only 60,250 Farm Bu-
reau members left and these falling
away, due to realization of the char
acter of the leadership of the Amer
lean and Iowa state federations.
Perhaps the most outstanding at
tempt of the Farm Bureau federation
to absorb large organization, "boots
and breeches," as McSparren put it,
outside that in Pennsylvania, was that
designed against the Farmers union
of Nebraska, which partly succeeded,
and partly went awry-like an engine
striking an open switch and it's front
wheels going on one track and it's hind
wheels on the other. The Farm Bu-
reau leaders evidently laid out an in
teligent and clever scheme for getting
toe-hold on the Nebraska Farmers
union movement.
c. H. Gustafson, president Of the
Nebraska Farmers union for many
years, had been looming up as an an
tagonist Of Charles S. Barrett, nation
al leader of the Farmers union, and
perhaps powerful rival. 1t was even
limited within Farmers union circles
that Gustafson might unseat Barrett
at some future national convention, or
else secede from the national Union
with the Nebraska Union, as North
Carolina had done. Obviously, if the
Farm Bureau was to get the name of
working with the Farmers union any
where in the country, Nebraska and
Mr.. Gustafson were the strategic
points.
The first act that was open to gen.
eral observation was the unexpected
appointment of C. H. Gustafson to the
Farm Bureau federation's Committee
Of II, and then, shortly later, to the
Craftsmanship of that committee, by
President ]. R. Howard of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau federation. Until
just about that time Mr.. Gustafson
was regarded as wholesomely on his
guard against the aggressions of the
federation. But from his position in
Nebraska, as president of the Nebra-
ska Farmers union and it's splendid

the leader of the only state where
there was chance for the Farm Bu-
,reau to break into the solidarity of
the Farmers union, was captured and
wholly absorbed by the Farm Bureau.
Fortunately the capture of Mr.. Gus
tafson did not take the Farmers union
Of the country, or even of Mr.. Gustaf-
sons own state, into the Farm Bureau.
The effect of this transfer of his af-
fections was strikingly shown at the
last national convention of the Farm
ers' union, held at Topeka, Kan,
few weeks ago. Mr.. Gustafson, now
the president Of the supposedly power
full U. S. Grain Growers, Inc. Ia
Farm Bureau federation subsidiary,
was an unbidden guest in the midst of
his former colleagues. He was coolly
left to himself by the delegates at the
Topeka convention, and he remained
in that chilly atmosphere for only one
day. Some of those who refused or
failed to recognize him as of old,
afterwards said that the treatment
was almost too severe. But the only
point here intended is that the men,
bership evidently feels that Mr.. Gus
tafson is no longer to be counted
among them and that he has gone to
the enemy-the enemy whose repre-
sentatives have declared in many
ways that once you are federation
member you need pay no further heed
to any other farmer organization.
"LEADERS' MAGAZINE
LET'S CAT OUT OF BAG
Pressed closely by his questioners
at Washington as to whether it was
not the purpose of the Farm Bureau
federation to become "THE farm or
ganization" of the country, Grey Sill
yer answered.:
''I should think that was a pardon
able pride"
The possibility of the Farm Bu-
reau's easy victory over all other or
ganizations is triumphantly set forth
in a terse sentence from Clifford
Thorne, attorney for the Farm Bureau
federation, who urged the federation
to establish national referendums on
important questions, and dangled be-
fore it's leaders this prize:
"You would quickly become recog-
nized as the spokesmen for the better
class Of farmers of the United States"
Did he want to be understood that
the federation is sort of caste into
which "the better class of farmers"
are more welcome than the plain men
and women who do their own work?
The purpose to absorb all other Or
ganizations is also set forth in "The
County Agent and Farm Bureau" a
prosperous, advertisement-laden pub
Ication of Chicago, boasting:43 county
agents, extension directors of agricul-
tural colleges, and experiment station
managers, as stockholders and asso-
ciate editors. The names Of these 43
are regularly carried at the head of
it's editorial column, with this modest
announcement:
'Worid's exclusive organ of the
agricultural leaders,"
This paper has a circulation of
5000, mainly going to county agents
and Farm Bureau federation chief

Special Care for Sman Pigs

| Keep the pigs coming, and help
them pass thru the weaving period
without getting rough-haired, and de
velop symptoms of runtiness. says
a. P. Spencer Of the Florida Agricul-
tural Extension Division. At three
weeks of age little PIGS will begin to
eat, and when one month old they
should have a separate place for feed
Ing. Partition off a small corner and
make creep hole where the little
fellows can so in and feed by them
selves. Following this plan they will
grow faster and be less dependent on
their mothers milk. Such pen may
be conveniently used until the pigs
are weaned, which should be when
they are 10 to IL weeks old. Small
pigs should be fed largely on shorts
and oats, with a small amount OF
cornmeal and tankage. In feeding
oats to them it is best to discard
the hulls, as they are indigestible
but the oat kernel is the best of
feeds. In addition, pigs should have
some cracked corn once a day. some
green feed. and a pasture with plenty
of shade and water This provides
variety and has a tendency to give
about the proper amount Of fat.
Keep the pigs free of lice also, as
lousy hogs cost almost two cents a
pound more than clean hogs--no far
imer can afford to pay the toll. An
other reason for feeding the pigs well
is that healthy pigs can better with
stand the attacks Of worms, which
wait for this period of weaving time
to get in their deadly work.

the branches do not drop, but remain
on the limb in shriveled and harden
ed condition. The fungus usually
starts thru the dead tip of a branch,
then gradually extends to t h e
healthy part of the branch, causing
a sudden whiting of the leaves. For
this reason, says DR.. Burger, patholo-
gist, the trees should be kept free of
dead wood to prevent the fungus
from getting a start. All infected
branches should be cut out, and in
doing this care should be taken to
cut well back into the healthy tissue,
as this fungus reaches farther back
into the wood than its outward signs
indicate. A dormant spray of Dor
deauX mixture ALSO formula. is also
recommended to destroy all spores
that may live over the winter in some
part of the tree where it would not
be easily observed.

SHAGE SUGGESTIONS
Much Loss of Silage May be Avoided
by Following Few Simple
Rules

In order to obtain the best re,
suits in making ensilage it is well
to remember a few important facts
says Professor W. E. Stokes, forage
specialist.
First. see that the machinery is
in readiness for the job. All missing
or broken parts. loose bolts. dull
knives, and worn betting should be
located and put in shape before the
crop is ready.
THE crop should be alleged tc
reach the proper stage of maturity
before putting it into the silo. Corn
makes the best silage, and should be
cut just as the shuck begins to turn
brown, while the leaves are still
green, and the kernels are beginning
to dent and glaze.
Sorghum should not be put in the
silo until the seed are practically ma
ture. If cut too green a watery, soul
silage results.
see that you silage is cut into
short lengths, not over three-fourths
OF an inch. 1t should be packed well
especially around the edge of the silo
There is no danger of over packing.
"Silase that is too dry does not
pack well, and viii mold This
trouble can be overcome by turning
a small stream of water on the
knives with a hose.
In conclusion, have your ma
chinery ready cut at properstage OF
maturity; cut into short lengths;
pack well and water if too dry; and
95 percent of your silage troubles
will disappear"
