According to the State Federation

hobby, and is simply an honest effort
to study the situation.
Taxation is an intricate and tech

general public know too little about
the subject. Every effort will be
made to study it in comprehensive

Essay 2

Essay
In studying my history at school,
learning of the great wars which
have taken place, the generals, the
armies consisting of hundreds of men
and their victories are the result Of
their efforts; it seems to me good
illustration of the Farm Bureau
work.
1t seems to be a great battle where
numerous leaders and many farmers
already. have entered the field, work
ing with their shoulders at the gun,
aiming for glorious victory Of
farm organization" as the only
| means of being on a firm and equal
basis with other classes of industry
already organized.
We all know that there is not, an
other class of laborers, who put in
| such long hours with such a small
margin of profit and that the welfare
of the whole universe, depends so
much upon as the farmer. Then why
| shouldn't the farmer fight (if he
must) for his just rights?
These battles referred to, were not
worn by their leaders and few men
only but by the unite efforts and
! determination of many. SO the farm
organization never can be success
fully won, unless the majority OF
farmers are willing to pull together
! with the aid of their competent lead
ers, with forward" for their march
ing order; SO hoping to bring them
off victorious.
That's why my dad joined the
Farm Bureau believing he would
reap benefit from it now, and hoping
to see the day, in the near future
whenthe farmers ingeneral would co
operate, with hearty enthusiasm, tt
where they can all receive larger ant
better returns for their labor.
The Farm Bureau has set the farm
es to thinking and making a bettel
product for a better price, which i
only in it's infancy.

Bows and Girls Win Prizes.

One of the matters of interest that
came before the meeting of the exc
cutive committee of the Orleans
County Farm Bureau held at the Fee
deral building, June 80 was the
adopting of the plans of other county
Farm Bureaus in offering prizes for
the best essays on certain subjects.
The two subjects adopted at the
meeting were: "Why Dad Joined the
Farm Bureau?" and "What have we
got out of Farm Bureau"
The prizes that the Bureau offered
were ten dollars in money divided as
follows SIS, So and 2. AS result of
this proposition several letters came
to the county club agent, M. r. Bacon
and the three which won the prizes
follow, the awards being granted
in the order in which they are print
ed, SIS to the first So to the second
and So to the third:
O. Essay
Dad joined the Farm Bureau be-
cause he thinks if farmers make a
success of farming and marketing
their products they must organize as
do all other manufacturers. Even the
boot blacks organize.
Not long ago farmers sold their
produce for just what the dealers
would pay for it.
They took their sugar to market,
asked the dealer what he would pay
them and what they would have to
pay for white sugar in return, having
nothing to say about price on either.
With these facts existing is it not
time for the farmer to organize and
stand for their own rights and tell the
dealers and consumers what they
have got to have for their products.
Our dairy products are the largest
produce we have. Even at that the
milk, cream and butter dealers pay
their own prices for them. Why not
| the farmer know what it costs to pro-
duce milk, cream, butter and other
products, then demand a price, te
make fair profit. But they cannot

fore Large Audience
Here.

Louis Blumer, n. D., who is con-
quoting free lecture course at the
Park theatre every afternoon, except
Wednesday for the remainder of the
week, demonstrated to a crowded
house this week that natureopathy is
able to ameliorate disease. The
theory, of which DR.. Blumer is a dis
ciple, purports to administer to the
person stricken, by readjustment of
the afflicted part or of those parts
which shut off the proper supply of
nourishment, to the afflicted part.
Natureopathy stoutly denounces
drugs. holding that they tend to in
Jure rather than help, since their
power to alleviate pain or an un-
healthy condition is only temporary
The true manner of restoration to
normalcy, according to DR.. Blumer. is
by reimbursement so that the proper
amount of nutdition which was in
tended by nature would be supplied to
the diseased part.
The Park theater yesterday took on
the aspect of Lourdes in France

acuIous medium of sacred relics. Old
men bent by some ailment or crippled

try anything to regain their hearing

were present to clamor for any pos
sible relief that might be given them
After his lecture yesterday DR..
Blumer called for patients to come
upon the stage for treatment. Only
few cases were selected by him
among which was Mrs. Cook of 1875
Kings Highway, who has been deaf
for ten years After pushing the
buttons, as DR.. Blumer calls it. she
declared
clearly, but that she could hear and
grasping the doctors hand wept with
joy.
Another case treated by Blumer
yesterday was Louis Galsner, 10 years
of age, who has been left with a
w1thered arm and crooked back as
the result of infantile paralysis after
pushing the buttons Louis was able
to raise his hand over his head
