Failing to negotiate peace, the

North Dakota, altho controlled by
the Nonpartisan league, may, as a
place OF residence. be preferable to
Texas. The Lone Star state has fallen
under the political control of the Ku
K1ux Khan. 1t would be interesting
to know just how leaders of these
gangs gain a sufficient following to
enable them to control a great state.
The Farmers Alliance once became
the ruling party in Kansas, but the
Alliance advanced progressive ideas in
government which appealed to think-
ers and honest men in all walks OF
life. That it's principles were meri-
torious has been established by the
fact that most OF them have since been
enacted into law. 1t is unthinkable,
however. that the principles and pTac-
tees of the league or the khan can
ever make great Roadway in the
United States as a whole.

WILL LOCATE TULIP
FARM AT LYNDEN
New AmeIican-HOlland Company
Decides TO Start Operations in
This District

That the farm of the recently
organized Holland Bulb
Company will be located in the
Lynden district, was definitely
announced today by r. Vallent-
COED. president of the company.
An option has been taken on
a forty acre tract south of Lyn-
den, on the pavement between
the Guide Meridian and Hanne-
gan roads. The company intends
to plant there next fall from sew
EN- to ten acres in bulbs, and ex-
poets to have forty acres of flow
ering bulbs after the fourth year.
The location of the farm in
the Lynden district will mean
that thousands of people will
come here annually to view the
magnificent display of the bulb
fields. Having demonstrated that
bulbs can be grown successfully
on commercial scale in this
district, the government farm at
Bellingham is giving up bulb
Investigations entirely, and is de-
voting itself to grains and gras-
ses, so that the Lynden farm will
be the largest in the county.
The American-HOlland Bulb
Company is incorporated with
capitalization of $60,OOO.O0

FRUIT-GROWERS TO
GET HIGHER PRICES
Manager c. NJ. Creamer Says
This Season on Crop

Farmers of the Lynden district
will receive higher prices this
year for their berries, according
to c. M. Creamer, manager of
the Lynden Producers Canning
Company's plant. The grower
will net considerably more this
year than last season, he declares.
The raspberry crop will be a
light one, due to the damage to
the canes by the severe winter,
but other crops will keep the
cannery busy. An effort will be
made to handle everything the
grower raises, as far as possible.
To take care of an increased
bos,n crop. additional canning
N mac eR{nsry has been installed. 1t
10000 cases Will be handled,
and of these, Mr.. Creamer has
orders for a heavy percentage.
He distributed a ton and a half
of beans for seed to the growers,
which is an indication of the size
of the crop that may be expected.
"The famous Boston beans are
not in it with the Lynden prod
uct," said Mr.. Creamer today.
"They haven't the fine flavor,
and they aren't nearly as good
to can. Lynden beans are as
fine as any in the land"
Mr.. Creamer is making a trip
to Seattle this week on cannery
business.

LYNDEN MEN JOIN
CONTRASTING CLUB
County Agent Carroll Busy Form
ing New Association Under A
LOW.COst Plan

Many Lynden dairymen are
planning to join a new Whatcom
County cow-testing association,
being organized this week by H.
B. Carroll, jr., county agent. A
total of 1900 cows will be in
cluded in the association.
Under an entirely new plan of
organization, the cost per cow
will not exceed $3.50 year, as
against $3.50 necessary under
the old plans.
The farmers will be required
to take their own samples, and
a high-class tester will be en-
ployed to make the examinations
each month. At least twice a
month, he will call at the lndi-
vidual farms to assist the farmer
with his feeding problems. All
records will be sent to Washing
ton State College, where the book
work will be done, and the rec
ords will be returned to each
dairyman two or three days later.
Whatcom County is the first
to try out this new plan, and 1t
is expected that other sections
will soon adopt it.

A DAY MADE HERE
Price Jumps One Cent Again;
Lynden Plant Is Handling Big
Quantity of Dairy Products

cent pound Tuesday, the second
advance made in the last few

in fact, for one day last week the
total reached 10,36S pounds for
single day. And this in addi-
tiOn to pressing out ton and
a quarter of fine Darigold cheese,
and manufacturing 33 big bar
rels of powdered milk.
A large quantity of Lynden
butter is being shipped now to
Vancouver and Alaska, relieving
the Seattle market.
Over ~ tons of milk is being
brought in daily by fleet of
trucks from all sections. Yes
terday's total was 144,364 lbs
During April, 222,31O pounds
of butter were made in both the
Bellingham and Lynden plants,
and the Association handled 1885,
625 pounds of butterfat and As
$50 lbs. of cheese.
Fifty-eight men are on the pay
roll at the Lynden plant now, in
