WOULD STOP TRAFFIC LEAKS
Michigan State Farm Bureau Retains Attorney to Protect interests
 of Its Members.

The Michigan state farm bureau will take an increasingly active inter est in the solution of Michigan's agrf- cultural transportation problems, ac- cording to action taken recently by the state board of directors in retain ing MT. B. L. Ewing of Grand Rapids, one of the leading traffic attorneys in the state, to represent the bureau at all state and federal railroad commits sion hearings in which the farm bu- reau is interested.
 MT. Ewing recently conducted the Michigan Traffic leagues case before the Michigan public utilities commits sion and representatives of the inter state commerce commission. The state farm bureau intervened in this case and through MT.

Forty able farmer witnesses and their representatives testified. Twenty-seven out of fifty sets of traffic statistics presented by the manufacturers, city shippers and farmers were agricultural statistics

ARHE EEAH FARM EUKEAU PROTEST REOPENING
 OF HAY-GRAIN CASE
Traffic Manager HutChings En- deavoring to Save Shippers
 Huge Sum of $6,OOO,OOO.

The American Farm Bureau Fed tration Is protesting against the re opening of the Western Hay and Grain case before the interstate commerce commission. The petition asking that the coarse grain differential be elim- mated in the territory west of the Mississippi river and east of Fl PaSo and Denver was filed May 5 by the carriers. The coarse grain differential involves approximately $6,OOO,OOO and 1t is this amount that the American Farm Bureau Federation Is trying to save the shippers of hay and grain.
 It Is the position of the American Farm Bureau Federation that rates on coarse grain were generally lower than on wheat throughout this terri tory prior to federal control, and that the commissions decision restored the old relationship. The case involved the entire situation with regard to the rates on grain and the commission es- tablished reasonable rates as It might properly do in such a hearing. AL though the commission has reopened for hearing on this very question the case in so far as 1t relates to Noun tain-Pacff1c territory, conditions are entirely different there than between the Mississippi river and Colorado.
 At a recent conference in Kansas City representatives of every state railroad commission in the territory involved except North Dakota, and also representatives of the American Farm Bureau Federation, Farmers

WILL VOTE ON SHIP SUBSIDY
Members of Iowa Farm Bureau Fed eration Given Chance to Express
 Their Opinions.

Through the medium of a statewide referendum members of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation will be given an opportunity to express their opinions on the ship subsidy which is now under consideration by congress.
 Farm bureau meetings will be called in every township in the state, about seventeen hundred in number. The various provisions and requirements of the bill will be explained, after which vote will be taken and the result sent to federation headquarters in Des Moines.
 Much propaganda has been circu- lated in Iowa setting forth the benefits it is believed might accrue to the na- tton from ship subsidy, but little or nothing in regard to the actual pro- visions of the bill itself. The farmers want to know just what the bill pro- poses to do and what it will cost the government to carry it on. The fed eration's policy is to make everything clear to the individual member in order that he may think it out and settle 1t for himself.

PROFIT ON WHEAT EXPORTS
Federal Trade Commission Submits First Part of It's Report on Grain
 Investigation.

The federal trade commission sub mitted to the senate on May 16 the first part of its report on the Ladd resolution calling for an investigation of the export grain trade. The report shows that the average profit on wheat exports for 1920 was s cents per bu- shel, but in 1921 it was cut approXi- mately 96 per cent-to one-thfrd Of l cent per buShel. The commission declared that the bulk of the grain exported is controlled by "a cOmpara- lively small number of concerns" The three groups which were cited as being especially important in the exporting business are the Gary-Rosenbaum in- terests, the RoSenbaum-ArmOur inter- ests and the Barnes-AmeS interests. In 1921, eight concerns (closely affili- ated) exported more than 50 per cent of the total of 345,OOO,OOO bushels.
 The Ladd resolution was intro duced at the instance of the American Farm Bureau Federation and was passed on December 22, 1921. Any one desiring a complete report of the federal trade commission on the eX- port grain trade should write to his senator in Washington.

SHIP CREAM CO-OPERATIVELY
Farmers In Various Parts of Ohio Establish Stations to Handle
 Dairy Product.

The number of cooperative cream shipping stations in Ohio is increas- ing, according to reports from the Ohio Farm Bureau federation. With in the last few months farmers in various sections of the state have es- tablished stations at more than 60 places. Most of these were initiated by the Ohio Farm Bureau federation.
 The procedure has been for the farmers to hire local station opera tor who tests and grades the cream and ships it to a creamery in a nearby section. The local or district organi- zation representing a group of local units, through a sales committee, bar gains with the creameries for the whole membership. Thus the cream cries are being assured of a given volume and the farmers have a stable market
 More than 50 stations are located In the Toledo trade territory and sev- eral are operating in the region of Cincinnati.

Wise Bird.

Grandfather was a patient in a hos pital. In the yard stood a tree, and in this tree was a robins nest. The spar rows seemed to take great delight in seeing how miserable they could make things for Mrs. Robin by diving and pecl1ing until she would leave the nest.
 One morning when Grandpa was looking out the window he saw a twig fastened with a string just above the nest on which was suspended a card, the ten spot of diamonds. The breeze kept the card whirling back and forth frightening the sparrows away. Mrs. Robin went ahead with her work and matched her brood unmolested.

of his visit to the light region. Mr..
Mansfield returned here several days

by torrents of rain, but made q dill
ferent observations. He went to Nor

most interesting mountaineers In the
south. Mr.. Claywell made the visit
very pleasant for Mr.. Mansfield. He
says that he was put next to the light
that has pestered and mystified people
for years. April Mr.. Mansfield came
down the mountain. He has been busy
on other things, but will have his
Brown mountain light report ready
for the senators in o short'time. While
in the state Mr.. Mansfield spent two
nights on Brown mountain. He tar
ried at Loving'3 hotel for a time. The
lights he saw were quite visible, and
he is satisfied one of them was not
made by the train. The lights came
and went, being visible from time to

made known by Representative Mon

the 1908 pay because of the expira-
tion of the war time pay schedules.
The 1908 basis is regarded by most
of the members Interested in the sub
ject as 'inequitable and although the
new rate would result in a saving, it
is calculated to result in increases
where determinations are alleged to
have existed heretofore.
