PLAN NATIONAL
ORGANIZATION
FARMERS ORGANIZATIONS MAY
SOON CRYSTALIZE INTO ONE
LARGE SYSTEM.
WILL OPERATE ON MODERN BASIS
Present Business Plans of 0rganiza-
ti0ns Are Failures.

agricultural cooperative enterprise
IN America is gradually crystalling
into a national cooperative system of
which many of the present systems
are necessary as integral units. ac-
Cording to press reports this week
from Chicago.
A commission to handle this big
problem is to be provided for. is the
announcement made by w. c. Lans-
don. national organizer of the Farm
ers' Educational and Co-operative
Union of America
Tracing the growth of the CO.
operative movement in agriculture. the
report asserted that about four-fifths
OF the states now have laws defining
ana authorizing cooperative business
and estimating that there are more
than 1000 such organizations in the
country today directly concerned with
some form of agriculture.
While great numbers of share can
4tal co-operatives are in business. the
report said that hundreds of such en-
terprises had tailed or were virtually
bankrupt. Commenting on this. the
report said ii is a safe rule to organize
no coop arative society unless there is
at least 100000 of business a year in
sight. The credit system and the
placing of the management in the
hands of persons not familiar with
such business enterprises were hel .
responsible for the failure of many
agricultural cooperative societies.
Discussing marketing organizations
without share capital. the report cited
the California citrus fruit growers as
one OF the best and most successful
examples, the organization handling
transactions amounting to 500 600 =
600 annually.
Dealing with the farmers live stoclr
marketing movement the report said
that the only serious opposition threat
enlng II came from a counter move
ment of a similar character sponsored
by the American Farm Bureau feder-
alton.
There is every reason to believe" 3"
the report added, that the purpose
back of the federation system of So
called cooperative commission houses
is the ultimate destruction of the real
cooperative commission houses that
were operating on nine great markets
before the committee of Is of the fed
Grafton was appointed"
There has always been a strong
suspicion" the report adds. that the
American Farm Bureau federation
was created by forces unfriendlv to
real volunteer farmers organizations
1t has always been supported bv
boards of trade and chambers of
commerce and other combinations un-
friendly TO farmers self-help associa-
tions "

NASH JuBILANT OVER SUCCESS
Says M0ore's Election Is Direct Party
Protest.

BOISE, Nov. S.-The election of c
G. Moore, republican, as governor by
majority of between 1000 and 10000
votes is a direct protest at "bossism, Z"
in the opinion of |. H. Nash, republi-
can state chairman, in a statement
issued tonight.
Idaho republicans are elated at the
election of republican governor, two
congressman and a complete republi-
can ticket at the close of what has
been a most difficult compaign," the
state chairman said.
"A situation of unrest already per-
picking was famed to flame by the
advent of Senator Borah with his de-
mand that the republican nominees
reject their party's platform. Enemies
of the party took aid and comfort
from mis- campaign and piled up a
large vote against us.
Notwithstanding these conditions,
the party has won by safe majority
of from 1000 to 10000. In the vote
we see that the people of the republi-
can party have voted to support the
candidates who would not renounce
their pledges. We see in it protest
at bossism and we see in it that the
party can not and will not be STAN
peded to the opposition by one man"

More Aid For War Veterans

Disabled war veterans of this vicin-
ity and the Pacific Northwest taking
agricultural training under the direc-
tion of the government on their own
or leased land projects will hereafter
be entitled to maximum of $500 from
the government for farm equipment.
according to information given out by
l.. G. Jesseph of Seattle, northwest
district manager of the United States
Nterans' Bureau. 1t is believed that
this provision will stimulate training
along agricultural lines on the part of
veterans in line for rehabilitation un-
der the direction of the Veteran S
Bureau, he stated. Less money will
be needed by the veteran to establish
himself on farm
There are 230 disabled war veterans
in the Pacific Northwest training to
become capable farmers on their own
or leased land at the present time.
Mr.. Jesseph said These men receive
$50 a month or more from the gov
ernment until they are able to handle
their land projects without outside
aid. A total of approximately 500
other vocational trainees of this dis
trict are learning agricultural work
of various kinds.
Veterans organizations everywhere
are pushing the congressional meas
ure known as the Knutson bill which
will, if passed, administer loans on
farm mortgage security to disabled
war veterans not TO exceed rs per
cent of the total value of the farm
real estate nor $1,000 to a man Not
more than $1,000 shall be advanced at
one time

Check Up Tax Dodgers.

Government revenue agents and aud
itors. just now catching up with
their after-the-war work, have made
the startling discovery that more than
one million persons liable for taxes
on incomes above $4,000 have lodged
payment. either through not making
returns or concealing assets.
This was learned at the treasury
department, simultaneously with the
inauguration of a campaign on the
part of the internal revenue bureau to
catch the evaders.
Revenue experts estimate that the
treasury can be enriched TO the extent
of 500 million dollars in collection
from individuals who have failed to
make any returns for four wears.

RECORD VOTE CAST IN BOUNDARY
COUNTY AT TUESDAY ELECTION
Bonner County Returns.

On the Bonner county ticket the
republicans have carried everything
but two offices. county superintendent
of schools and sheriff, in which cases
the democratic incumbents are reas-
onably safe. A strong fight was made
on the sheriff's office. but it did not
affect the results.
The republican legislative ticket is
not pledged TO the primary. They
have the senator and one representa-
tive sure, but the other representa-
tive has a lead 30 small that additional
returns may change the relative
standing and give it to George Pear
son democrat.

TO assist educators, and educational

in December from the second to the
ninth of the month Governors of the
states and the people in the states
are to be called to action in favor Of
education by presidential proclama-
tion, according to plans made public
by the Hon. j. J. Tigert, commissioner
of education. Each day of the cam
paign is to be dedicated to some one
particular educational work.
One of. the results hoped for from
the drive is an increased public con-
seriousness of the need of more money
spent on the schools. Speaking Of
this, DR.. Frank Ballou. superintendent
of schools in the nations capitol
says:
"The financial resources provided
for public education are not sufficient
TO do more than maintain the educa-
tional standards existing before the
war. The war revealed educational
conditions which demand larger APP
preparations for public education
Ihere is a real danger that the finan-
cial burdens of the war are likely to

opportunities for them.
THE last federal census showed
there were 4,931,90 illiterates in the
United States OF these 3,0S4, ,74S

not so much an evidence of failure TO

took to do, but rather failure to make

wise as il ought to be-
