With this large poundage pooled
for sale as single unit we have
been able to conduct an extensive
national advertising campaign, with
the idea Of creating a bigger market
for our product and at an except
ionally small cost per pound to the
individual grower. BY means of our
bonded warehouse and the issuance
of warehouse receipts we have been
able to borrow money with which to
make payments to the grower and
hold the seed until such a time as
we could obtain better price. BY
storing and marketing in an orderly
manner as the demand occurred we
were able to obtain a much better
price for our seed than would have
been possible had it been dumped on
the market at an inopportune time
without plan or coordination as is
usually the case when marketed in
dividually. We are now perfecting
an organization within the parent
organization whereby we will be
able to borrow thru the federal re-
serve and our local banks on ware
house receipts issued by our Ware
house and Finance Corporation, a
reasonable amount of the market
value of the uncleaned seed, i'm
mediately on its receipt for storage,
which will permit of very SUBJ
stantial payment to the grower as
soon as his seed is delivered. This
payment will carry him thru his
financial obligation until such
time as the seed can be sold and
further payments made, which will
be little later in the season when
the demand is stronger and the
price relatively higher.
Another important feature which
has been brought about by this or
ganization which has meant better
returns to the growers is the stand
ardization of grades and the i'm
provement of the quality. Buyers
for the most part are perfectly will
ing to pay little more for super
ior article. This improvement of
standards and quality can only be
brought about by organized effort.
Another important factor of CO.
operation is the elimination Of waste
in assembling, shipping and clean
ing product such as ours, and
which will apply to practically every
other farm product. In our organi-

salaries are of small moment COM
pared with the success or the failure
of the enterprise. I wish to en-
phasize at this time the necessity of
obtaining skilled executives to direct
the affairs of an organization of this
kind as most of the failures are
traceable to inefficient management.
Don't expect too much from your
organization the first year, "Big
oaks from little acorns grow" and
it takes time as we'll as enthusiasm
to build up any kind of business.
Many organizations have come peri
ously near the rocks because they
failed to set the world afire the first
year, where if they would just stop
a minute and think, they know that
it just isn't done.
Now just word of the advant-
ages of cooperative marketing by
telling you what has been accom-
plished by the Idaho Grimm Alfalfa
Seed Growers association. This as
ISOLATION is strictly cooperative, OPP
Grating on non-stock, non-profit
basis. The returns from the sale of
our product revert direct to the
grower, less the actual cost Of opera
ton. Each grower shares alike in
proportion to the amount of seed
that he has delivered. This organi-
cation is composed of 1872 members
who have specialized in the produc-
ton Of certified Grimm alfalfa seed
and the production Of these 1872
members represents about 80 per
cent of the certified Grimm grown
in Bingham county and approxi-
mately rs per cent Of the worlds
supply last year.

Condition

BOISE, Aug. 10.-Weather condi-
lions during July were particularly
trying on all non-irrigated crops. In
north Idaho, the prolonged drought
continued, some sections receiving
no rain since June /. This condi-
ton has been detrimental to all
crops but particularly so to small
grains and hay. In the southern
portion Of the state there were rains
around July 20, which while they
were not general, came just in time
to be of very material benefit to nom
irrigated grain crops, especially in
the upper Snake river valley. With
uninterrupted sunshine and an
abundance Of water, crops in all IT.
rigated districts are thriving.
Wheat-The total crop is esti-
mated at 23,752,00O bushels COM
pared with a prospect July / Of 23,-
$4,000 bushels. Continued hot,
dry weather during July caused Q
falling of Of 10000 bushels from
the July / winter wheat prospect.
"A yield per acre for winter wheat
Of 1876 bushels approximates the
low yields of 1917 and 1919 which
were the. lowest on record since
1895. Spring wheat promises a
production of 15,757,000 bushels
compared with 15,655,000 bushels,
the July / estimate.
Oats and Barley-The oats crop
was particularly hard hit by the
continued drought and lost five
points from the condition of SO per
cent on July /. Barley was also at
fected by the dry, climatic condi-
lions, the August condition being
81 per cent of normal compared
with 81 per cent for July l.
Corn-In the western and south
ern counties where irrigation water
is plentiful, the corn crop made ex-
cellent progress, but lack OF rain in
northern counties is detrimental.
The present forecast of 1,841,840
bushels compares with 100000
bushels harvested last year, assum-
ing that the entire acreage will be
cut for grain.
Potato Condition Good
Potatoes-Potatoes show a con-
dition of SO per cent of normal
which is one point above last
months condition of 90 per cent of
normal. Stands are not entirely
what they should be, but a good
healthy growth was made during
July. The railroad strikes and the
unsettled condition Of the markets
were responsible for very little
activity in the early districts around
Caldwell. For instance, the carlot
movement up to July 29 this season
was twenty three cars, while to the
same date last season 1873 cars had
moved out. Conditions in the early
potato districts of Kaw Valley, Kan.
and Kearney, Nebr., have been
equally unsatisfactory. No digging

at all for several days at time has
been reported.
Hay-The preliminary estimate
Indicates that there are 91S,690
acres Of tame hay and 127,070 acres
Of wild hay, reduction Of per
cent and 3 per cent respectively
from last year. Based on condi-
ton of 80 per cent of normal;
Idaho's hay crop promises to total
1888, 900. tons, which compares
with 3,180,000 tons harvested last
year. The first cutting of alfalfa is
particularly good all thru the irri-
gated districts with the exception Of
some areas in western counties,
where alfalf weevil has done con-
siderable damage. The prolonged
drought In north Idaho has ma
terially cut down hay prospects.
Fruit-Idaho's apple crop is
about holding Its own, the August /
condition Of 80 per cent Of normal
comparing with q condition Of 81
per cent Of normal July /. The
present forecast is for a total Of
4,281,000 bushels. In the CONNER
cial districts-Twin Falls, Boise,
Payette and Weiser valleys and Post
Falls and Lewiston in the north
the fruit is developing nicely and
promises to be large-sized and of ex-
cellent quality. While there will be
a fairly good crop elsewhere in the
non-commercial districts of the
state, it will probably not be as
large as last year.
With a forecast of 242,900
bushels, Idaho's peach crop promises
to exceed all former records. The
condition is 20 per cent of normal
compared with So per cent a year
ago and the 10-year average of 60
per cent. The crop is particularly
promising in the Mesa-C Council dis
trict in Adams county.
Pears improved three points over
last months condition of 80 per cent
and promise crop of $4,000
bushels.
Prunes showed improvement dur
ing July, but reports just received
indicate heavy drop in some Sec
tions, due probably to the long con-
tinued hot weather, and to a red
spider which has infested some
orchards.
Sugar Beets-The crop got off to
a bad start this year because of a
cold, late spring, but these condi-
lions have been largely overcome by
subsequent excellent wingl
weather and an abundance of fri
cation water. The August 1 condi-
ton of go per. cent of normal COM
pares with the 10-year average con-
dition of 90.6 per cent. Only $4,000
acres were planted this year com
pared with $1,000 acres planted in
1921. The August 1 forecast of
100000 tons compares with $50, 900
tons last month and 100000 tons
produced in 1921.

two years. The following three
years she was principal of a school
at Idaho Falls. During the sum-
