delayed. Farmers already are impa-
tient"
What is the farmers general idea
about taXation?"
Proposals to reduce further sur
taxes on large incomes or profits,
Senator Capper rejoined. will meet
with strong resistance from farmers.
Dissa atisfaction was caused by the
lowering of these surtaXes recently,
because heavier burden was shift
ed to shoulders least able to bear it..
Any reduction in taxation that may
be possible should benefit those least
able to pay, persons whose incomes
are $4,000 or less year.
Asks Equal Legislation.
Middle western farmers are not
asking for something for nothing.
They know that prosperity cannot be
obtained through legislation. The
farmer isn't asking for charity from
Congress, and doesn't want 1t. All
he asks for is legislation that gives
him a chance to help himself equal
to the chance other industry long
has enjoyed.
Farmers feel that industry or
business. for it's own interest, If moth
ing else. should be concerned that
the spread between prices of farm
products and of other commodities
should be reduced. They cannot be-
lieve that industry desires to see the
standard of living on the farm re-
duced, but it inevitably will be re-
duced unless agriculture soon comes
closer to getting a square deal than
it has for three years past.
1.-The farmer much prefers to buy
than to stay out of the market. With
fair profits on his production he al
ways has been and always will be

surplus. When estimates Of receipts
prove to be far below the actual re-
ceipts it is both easy and tempting
then to quietly create the impression
that the cutting down of expendi-
lures, rather than the increase of re-
ceipts above estimates, was largely
responsible for a surplus at the end
of the year"
Declaring that republican leaders
who now demand credit for a mere
peacetime surplus denied democrats
any sort of credit for a real and in
f1nitely greater achievement in 1890"
Mr.. Hull continued:
Democrats reduced the public debt
$500. 100000 during the eighteen
months prior to March 4. 1921. while
this administration only claims re-
duction of scarcely $500. 100000 for
the past twelve months"

The packers and stockyards admin.
istration conducted COMPREHENSIVE
investigation Of Washington an
other Northwestern states. The Sc
attic and Portland quotations for
butterfat were found 10 differ due
TO the fact that Seattle's prices were
quoted on delivered basis. while
those OF Portland were country sta.

that when shipping and handling
costs were added 10 the Portland
quotations, the delivery price there
was found TO be closely comparable

OF butterfat delivered at Portland
was higher than the Portland prices
for print butter.
