suLIN0 HOGS AND BUYING
SUGAR

Fifty years ago . boy rode into
town beside his father on the spring
seat Of farm wagon. They had .
load Of shoats. They drove up be-
fore the towns biggest butcher shop
and the biggest grocery store; the
butcher came out to greet them. The
boy heard his father ask. What
will you give me for my hogs"
They sold their hogs At the
butchers price. Then they walked
over to the grocery store and again
the boy heard his father ask . ques-
ton. this time: How much do 20.
charge for your sugar."
These two questions set the boy
thinking. Queer wasn't II the way
his father did busiaess! First ask
ing the butcher to buy bis hogs At
the butchers price. Then asking
the grocer to sell sugar At the gro
GERS price. Wasa't hfs father Just
- good Q man ~ the butcher? Then
Why not tell him what he would
have to pay for the hogs?
The father axpiained however.
that the farmers belonged to the
great unorEanised class; that they
couldn't get together: and that for
those reasons they didn't have any
thing to say about the price Of their
own stuff
But the boy kept on thinking.
"Why can't we farmers get together
in an organized way and have some
thing to say about the price OF our
own products?"
The boys name was Oscar Edwin
Bradfute. To-day ~ president OF
the American Farm Bureau Feder-
alton. he makes marketing its lead

ers will get together and stick to-
