strate the value Of disease-free seed.
Field meetings were conducted in Aug
ust to show diseases and differences in
appearance under growing conditions.
In October the potatoes were dug
and club demonstration meetings were
held. It was found that the disease
free seed was responsible for about
one-third of the increase in yield over
homegrown seed, the other two-thirds
being due to better cultural methods.
Sixty-fve Of the boys secured an in
crease of 80 per cent with disease-free
seed, as compared with their fathers
homegrown seed. Each boy was
given bushel of disease-free seed.

election in the organizations annual
meeting here. John Gustafson of

being neutral, at least until the state

unanimously adopted the following
resolutions:

Stacker Citizens.

Figures issued by the census bureau
make a startling arraignment of
American citizenship. They show that
not quite half the qualified voters of
this country took part in the presiden-
tial election of 1920.
According to the census bureau, in
1920 there were in the United States
81 ,421 1882 American-born and natur-
allied citizens who were twenty-one
years of age or over: 27,661 $3.50 men
and 26,759,952 women. The total vote
cast in the presidential election Of that
year was 26,657,866, leaving the ap-
palling total of 27,763,966 men and
women that did not vote.
In a holly contested election, involv-
ing the most momentious issues, more
than half the people of the United
States failed to take the trouble to
cast ballot!
1t is true that in many cases the
failure was not the fault of the citizen.
The negroes of some of the southern
states are not encouraged to vote, but
the total of negro men and women in
the ten southern states where there
are voting restrictions is only little
over 100000, leaving nearly twenty
four million voters not accounted for.
Many women did not vote because
this was their first chance and it was
a new thing. No figures were kept to
show how many of the voters were
men and how many women, but Mrs.
Gait has figured that the women voters
the country over were in the ratio of
three to five men. That accounts for
some more of the missing.
But after eliminating in every posi-
bic way, there is bound to remain a
staggering residue Of people who
should have cared enough for their
country to cast ballot, but did not
do it, a not encouraging sign when it
is so clear that the success of free
government must always depend upon
the interest, enlightenment and vigil
lance of it's voters.-Duluth Herald.

VALUATION TOO
HIGH, SAYSBUREAU
Farm Federation Winds Up Powerful
3 Argument for Reduced Rates =
~s in Government Inquiry.
RATES CUT 10 PER CENT
Agriculture is Only Industry in United
States to Obtain Substantial
Cut in Freight Rates.

st. Paul, March 2.-The valuation
of the railroads of the United States,
as fixed by the Interstate commerce
commission for rate-making purposes,
is at least $4,000, 100000 too high, at
torneys for the American Farm Blu
reau federation declared in winding
up a powerful appeal for immediate
freight rate reduction, in government
rate hearings at Washington, D. c.
The arguments and evidence submit
ted by the farm bureau in it's fight for
further rate cuts have just been re-
,ceived by the Minnesota federation
headquarters in St. Paul. In rate
hearings covering the entire month the
American Farm Bureau federation
was the only shippers organization III
the county to introduce as evidence a
general financial analysis of railroad
earnings and expenses as a basis for
demand that freight charges be re-
,duced still further.
So far, agriculture has been the only
industry in the United States to OBJ
tain a substantial rate reduction The
farm bureau is recorded as the only
farmers organization in the country
that appeared to fight forreducedrates
last fall. Rate cuts averaging Is per
cent resulted from the farmers fight
in this case; and Immediately after the
hearings ended, the farm bureau be-
gan legal action to force further cuts
in rates on all farm products. Con-
ferences between railroad officials and
farm. bureau leaders followed, and the
net result was a so-called voluntary
cut of 10 per cent in freight charges
on practically every product of the
American farm. Hearings just con-
-cluded in Washington covered rates
on hundreds of commodities, and open
up the way for still further reductions
Farm bureau attorneys pointed out
that the testimony of the eastern rail-
roads chief witness showed that in
spite of small volume of traffic, the
roads are earning sci per cent on
their property investment. The prop
'erty investment figure, they asserted,
is $4,OOO,OOO, higher than the par
value of all the railway bonds and
stocks outstanding in the hands of the
public, and from five to six billion dol
lars higher than the market value of
these securities.
''The par value Of all stocks and
bonds outstanding in the hands Of the
public (water and ally is approximate
1y $4,000, 100000 less than the tenta-
tive valuation made by the interstate
commerce commission" the fedora
ton declared. Its attorneys argued
that with the railroads earning 5.21
per cent income on their property in
vestment, their earnings on a fair val
uation would amount to more than
seven per cent during the coming year.
The latest available government sta
tistics, they pointed out, showed that
in October, 1921, the value of farm
products was only 20 per cent higher
IL an in prewar times, with many pro-
ducts actually below the prewar level,
while the railroads income per ton of
freight hauled one mile was II per
cent higher than in 1914 and 1915.
