to talk and act as a closed body Of
this the Grain Grower officials are the
best judges, we think, as the results
and findings will all appear when ready
for action and publication To that
extent at least the proceedings will be
public, in effect. Following the cleo
ton and the getting of the machine
into action certain contested matters
being disposed of, it is doubtless plan
ned to hold open session in a get-to-
gether way.
A Complete Organization
The Grain Growers have built up q
considerable organization 1t has
taken lot of time, but it appears that
this is now complete. The next step
is the establishing of sales agencies
| in the cities decided on, this by the
sales organization but recently char
| tered. The district representatives
have been established and at work for
months. There is a large field force
at work securing members under a
number of active managers in the ceJs
trail organization. If the work contin-
ues as begun the membership fund in
itself should furnish a lot of working
capital in a short time, as it is all
cooperative money belonging to the
| grain growing members. If that mem
bership is now $4,000, more than
100000 already has been paid in, or
twice the amount of the capital stock
of the new sales organization, which
is simply a wheel within the original
wheel The salaries of directors and
ell Ill
are to be deducted, of course. from
the above gross and the fees still to
be collected
Election of Officers.
\ The principal men in the Grain
Growers were members of the Com
mittee of Seventeen, and were and are
a part of American farm bureau offic.
ialdom. These men have gone all the
way with the organization, at least
| most of them have, and will probably
be up for reelection to show results
! and the appOintees who are active in
, their fields will doubtless expect to be
: continued in the work. We shall all
! be interested in the outcome of the
! Chicago convention and all the avail
able news will appear in this column
as it develops.
Bull Nose Among Pigs.
A Washington township farmer re
ports bull nose affecting a couple oil
: filters of pigs. This disease is rather
| uncommon in this section, we believe
but there are times and places wher,
it has been of frequent occurrence
{ and quite prevalent. This was true
t in one section of Illinois few year.
I ago.
The symptoms are: A lump on the
( nose, often with swollen lips or jaws
: The treatment, which is simple il
given by County Agent Dolan, as fol
) lows: Dissolve a tablespoonful of per
3 manganate of potash crystals in two
| gallons of water. Use boiled water t.
be sure that it is antiseptic. Take tn,
: pigs one by one and stick their noses
Y in the water. Just how often this ma,
. have to be done depends but should b,
done at least once daily until cured
, The disease is often fatal unless
/ checked. The nursing litter is likel,
/ to all become infected, if it shows il
e a single pig.

GRAIN PRICES

(Markets by E. F. Leland & Company,
212 Union Bank Building)
CHICAGO, March 20.-Wheat was
nervous and unsettled all day. There
was general selling early on heavy
worlds shipments and break at Liver
pool. Later there was buying based
on the strength in cash markets at
Kansas City Russell Snow reported
a million bushels Of wheat worked
Saturday for export, but this was not
confirmed Germany demand for new
crop reported as continuing and half
million was estimated as having been
worked While the market regained
most of it's early loss the close was
below last figures Of Saturday. The
decrease in visible cut little figure.
Corn--Corn followed wheat and re-
gained nearly all its loss of early. Ac-
ton in corn was rather small, with
some buying credited to southwest in
terests. Receipts light and are likely
to run so for while. as country roads
are in bad shape Cash markets one
lower. Nothing said on export. Wis
ible showed big increase.
Oats-Trade in oats was light and
followed other grains. Early there
was buying of July by local house
and later the same house sold May
Local longs liquidated early, but there
was reinstatement of lines when wheat
showed strength. Cash prices about
unchanged.
