Coyerdale Discusses
Farmers Problems

Some of the important successes OF
organized farmers in improving eco
nomic conditions in agriculture and
some of the great things that will be
accomplished in the near future was
the substance Of the very interesting
address given by j. w. Coverdale OF
Chicago, secretary of the American
Farm Bureau federation, at the opera
house yesterday afternoon to the farm
ers of Brookings county. The rain
prevented a large attendance but those
present felt greatly profited from the
address.
Mr.. Coverdale gave a thoroughly
business-like discussion of the main
problems thai confront American ag-
riculture today and described the solu-
lions which the Farm Bureau was en-
deavoring to effect. Transportation
is one of the big problems, lower
freight rates and better service is a
necessity if agriculture is to be profit
able. Through the strength Of the ar
gument put up by the farmers through
the Farm Bureau rate reductions
amounting to 500, 000, 600 have already
been made. At the present time, a
transportation due to the inability OF
the middle west to get grain to the
seapOrts for shipment to Liverpool.
If the ST. Lawrence waterway was
nnno p1ntnI CO that Goa uninp ChjnC
could get up to Chicago, Duluth and
other lake ports, the farmers could
get ten to fifteen cents more per bu-
shell for wheat and corn. 1t would also
relieve the freight congestion and
plenty of cars would be available for
the short hauls to the Great Lakes.
The lack Of a merchant marine also
works to the disadvantage Of Amer
lean agriculture, since foreign ships
won't haul American grain until all
of the foreign grain is marketed and
the price down.
Il am not in favor Of the ship sub
sidy," said Mr.. Coverdale, nor am |
in favor Of any subsidy. They are
wrong in principle. But then we must
remember that the tariff is a subsidy"
He then took up the financial problem
and the marketing problem. He de-
voted considerable attention to the
subject OF cooperative marketing,
which is growing by leaps and bounds
among the farmers Of the country.
The L. S. Grain Growers. Inc, which
has been re-organized by the Farm
Bureau, is selling grain and has
been admitted to membership in some
of the large grain exchanges. The CO.
operative livestock selling associations
are making a great success and are
making life uneasy for the old commits
sion houses. Cooperative marketing
is growing and will be a great factor
in the future success Of the farmer.
Marketing means merchandising
and not just dumping" was one Of the
striking statements Of Mr.. Coverdale,
In order to market a product success
fully it's quality must be guaranteed
and 1t must be advertised to create a
demand for it. He illustrated his
point by a number of cases Of market
ing organizations that had failed and
succeeded on this one principle.

Put Up Good Battle
Against Siou. Salls

Bookings high schC ottball war
riors fighting agai' Overwhelming
odds playes'a We al game against
Sioux Falls b cN .hool on the local
gridiron last . day afternoon which
resulted in a II to 0 victory for Sioux
Falls. Brookings was outweighed
about twenty pounds to the man and
to the average spectator it looked
like a high school team playing against
the college. Carlisle was the big star
of the Brookings team with Whalen
a close running mate.
Sioux Falls made their first touch
down in the first quarter after Brook
ings had gone down the field within
striking distance &c the Sioux Falls
goal and lost the ball when they were
forced to drop kick. Moore and Mey-
ers Of Sioux Falls marched down the
field for long gains until the Brook
ings goal line was crossed. For the
rest of the quarter BroOkings held
them almost stationary in the middle
of the field. Early in the second quar-
ter Sioux Falls made it's second touch
down. The rest of the quarter was a
see-saw up and down the field. Brook
ings advanced the ball to Sioux Falls
25-yard line where they were held for
downs.
In the second half Brookings show
ed greater versatility and strength
and played the Sioux Falls team on
even terms all through the third quar-
ter Sioux Falls scored again but the
game was not over for Bookings op-
ened up with a series of sensational
runs and aerial plays that threatened
to put the whole Sioux Falls team in
disorder. Carlisle made the longest
run of the game when he grabbed a
pass from Johnson and tore down the
field for fifty yards. Twice Brookings
got down in striking distance Of the
goal but lacked the power to put a
touchdown over. Carlisle's attempt
to dropkick went wide and the game
ended.
<hltliouSh SAOotiy outSiocoSoJ
ings kept the Sioux Falls team wor-
ried throughout the game and put up
a relentless fight. 1t was a hard earned
victory for the Sioux and added con,
siderably to their hopes for state
championship since Brookings had
previously shown a marked superior
ity over all other teams in the north
east part Of the state.
Saturday Of this week Brookings
has another big game here when
Pierre comes here to settle accounts
with Bookings for the scoreless tie
which Brookings forced them to take
last year on the Pierre field. Pierre
has a strong team, last week holding
Rapid City to a 6 to 0 score. Rapid
City has defeated some of the strong.
est Black Hills teams by one hundred
points. The game will be called at
three o'clock at State field.
The lineup for the Sioux Falls game
last Friday was as follows:

To Assess Cattle

TOMBSTONE. - Assessor Geo. II. Henshaw left yesterday for Wilcox, at which point he will meet the Graham county assessor and together they will assess the cattle on the. ranges which extend into both courg ties. This condition has proven quits a problem to the assessors of both counties for some time. as the cattle on these ranges were driven into the other county upon the appearance of the assessor. This year, however. both assessors will put in their appearance at the same time. with the result that the assessment will be nearer correct. Chief Deputy James Mcdonald has re- gently completed assessing in Warren and left this morning for other parts of the county not yet visited this year.
