PEMISCOT FARM
BUREAU NEWS
Why Join the Farm Bureau?

The real question is not why
should the farmer join the Farm
Bureau, but rather why should any
farmer fail to join the Farm Bu-
reau? Organization is the keynote
of business today; every form of
business has it's own trade associa-
tion, whether it be grocers, bakers,
steel mills, coal mines, exporters
or publishers. Such organizations
can and do protect the interest of
the members far in excess of any
thing which could be done by the
several individuals.
Any man who met thug at
night would be idiotic to jab at his
opponent with his fingers extend
ed; only by doubling them up into
solid fist can he hope to produce
any effect other than hurting him
self. So it is by effecting solid
union of the farmers that effective
pressure can be brought to bear for
the solution of agricultural prob
lens. The work and efforts of in
dividual farmers toward the solu
tion of such pressing problems as
credit, transportation, orderly mar
keting, taxation, and Interpretation
of price movements, are all helpful
but fall far short of the possibili
ties of organized and united effort.
And has the Farm Bureau actual
ly realized these possibilities? The
answer to this question is found in
the establishment of grain and live
stock marketing organizations, It's
cooperation in the development of
cotton marketing company, and
the committees now studying the
same problem regarding fruits and
dairy products; in the enactment OF
the emergency tariff and the re-es-
tablishment of the War Finance
Corporation, in the ten per cent re-
duction in freight rates, in the elm
ination of the sales tax, and In the
growing understanding throughout
the country of the farmers prob
lens. Further, the State and coun-
ty farm bureaus are today writing
similar record of achievement.
Does anyone imagine that the farm
er unorganized could have accom-
plished such results? Or that the
farmer organized has not been bene-
fitted many times. more than it's
cost?
Accordingly farmer should join
the Farm Bureau because it will do
for him the things he wants done
but which he cannot do without the
cooperation of his fellow farmers.
He should join the Farm Bureau be-
cause it can and does employ ex-
perts to protect him from coming
evils and to secure valuable and
helpful benefits to agriculture. I
should join because / could not con-
scientiously accept these results un-
less had done my share in securing
them. I should join because l be-
lieve in a better agriculture and
substantial economic justice in it's
rewards. l should join because l ap.
prove of the work the Farm Bureau
has done and because I believe SINH
larly valuable work will be done in
the future. Finally, l should join
ing forward to victory and I want
to be part of this great move
ment.

COunterfeiting
Is on Increase

issued billions Of dollars in Liberty
bonds Victory notes. war savings GER
titicates, thrift stamps and treasury
certificates of indebtedness. These
were all new to the people and of I'M
familiar design. They constituted a
paradise for counterfeiters.
Reprint on U. S. Paper.
One of the most difficult obstacles
for The counterfeiter is the distinctive
paper on which government notes are
printed. 1t is made by secret process
and has so individual an appearance
! and feeling that almost every one can
detect a substitute All denominations
of American money are printed on
notes Of uniform size Therefore a
Iayorite device of the counterfeiter
is to take a ST bill and raise its
denomination He will bleach 1t
and have a piece Of nearly white dis
tinctiye currency paper on which he
viii print a note of a higher denom-
nation. Such notes are hard to de-
tect, especially if the counterfeter
prints $50 or 500 note of a new and
unfamiliar series.
Another scheme is to take note
and change only the figures. This
proves a snare to the counterfeiter if
he gives such note to a man famil-
lar with the designs of money. Such
man knows that a $50 note has a
buffalo on its design, but no $50 or
500 issue has. This sort of counter
feiting has increased with the new
money because the cOunterfeiters know
that few people are familiar with the
designs of the various new issues.
The same is true of the Liberty bond
issues No two issues are alike, and
counterfeiter changing the denomina-
ton of a 500 bond to $1,000 could
readily be detected by one who has
studied bond designs
Experts in Secret Service.
The secret service at Washington
has many experts who are very hard
to fool with even the cleverest coun-
terfoit, and while Counterfeitng has
increased TO great extent, the clrcu-
lation of counterfeit money has not
done so. The new counterfeit issues
are detected very early in their ca
reers and the source discovered and
stopped. 1t means more work and
constant vigilance for the government
agents and greatly increased investi-
gatiye work.
The appearance of women in the
counterfeiting profession has caused
the secret service many difficulties
The women are not engaged in the
actual manufacture of cOunterfeits,
but are confederates in the passing Of
the spurious currency.
Counterfeiters seldom work alone
in spite of the fact the records show
that only the counterfeiter who plays
a lone hand meets with success for
any extended period But it is hard
to practice the profession slngly. The
great difficulty is in getting the coun-
terfeit money into circulation. TO aC-
COmpliSh this the master counterfeiter
has accomplices. The general prac-

tice is for the cOunterfeiter to sell his

quently escape arrest by claiming to

A curious psychological mystery
about the whole profession of counter
feiting is that a really good counter
feiter requires skill of such high or
der that he could earn a better living
by honest employment of his talents
than by the manufacture of spurious
currency. Counterfeiting is a long,
tedious process, beset with hard work
and difficulties and it is rarely indeed
that a cOunterfeiter makes as much
money before he is apprehended as
he could from regular honest employ

Potters' Trust Increases Price Of Pottery
and China.


Prospects of an increase of from 80
to 80 per cent in the prices of pottery
and china by January 1, next, con-
fronted American housewives as they
got ready to go to the polls on No
vember Z. The increase in this COM
mon necessity of the home is attri-
butable to the new profiteers' tariff
law, which has imposed heavy duty
on all pottery and chinaware.
The American Potters' Association
will reap the full benefit of this new
tariff. This organization, commonly
called the ''Potters' Trust" had pow
erful backing when it went before the
Republican Congress to demand more
protection" for its products. Even
q Republican member of the Tariff
Commission showed interest in this
plea for higher duties. His interest
was ascribed to the fact that he was
once member of the Association.
There was no Republican legislator
or lobbyist on hand ito represent
American women.

A Significant Statement.

The following is from Rev. Mark
Allison Matthews, D. D., in an inter
view printed in the Los Angeles
Times, March |, 1914:
"Thank God, there are plenty of
industrious clergymen. Were it not
for them, the high office which we fill
would be brought into reproach. The
preachers of all denominations, even
Thoughts great many of them are lazy
and Indifferent, are willing, lam sure,
to be led into the path of the largest
efficiency. They are men of culture,
refinement, and conscience, and when
aroused, will become the mightlest
force in the nation.
There is no reason why the Christ
ian people of America cannot rule
America absolutely and in everything
rule it in Washington and in all the
capitals of our States and in all our
cities. The host is big enough for the
purpose, but it lacks in captains with
fighting blood in their veins-in the
right kind of ministers, elders, and
deacons."
This state ment is not only signific-
ant, but it is ominous of rule by re-
ligious oligarchy. Rapid progress has
been made recently in that evil direc-
tion, and today we see in action
mighty religious organizations form
ed for the very purpose of ruling,
not only ''in Washington," but sin
all the capitals of our States and in all
our cities"
