Of the American Railway Association
and the Bureau of Service of the In.
terstate Commerce Commission.
To obtain these specific improve
ments in the big problem of getting
the farmers products from the farm
to the market place is the job of the
transportation Department of the
American Farm Bureau. In this work
the department is directly aided by
the Legislative, the Research and the
Information departments.
In the matters of agricultural credit
and finance, the farm bureau recOg-
nizes three forms of credit are neces-
sary: longtime invested capital on an
amortization basis; short time credits
such as should be provided through
ordinary banks of deposit, and an in
termediary credit to take care of mar
keting and productive needs.
Seek Financial Relief.
To meet these ends 1t started to work
early this year to secure an amend
ment to the federal land bank act
removing the $4,000 loan limit; an
amendment of the federal reserve
act making that system more readily
accessible for banks Of small capital,
and an amendment extending the re-
discount period of agricultural paper
to at least nine months; the estab-
hshment of intermediary credit insti-
buttons for redlscounting paper prop
erly secured, for the purpose of order
ly marketing live stock and other pro-
ductive needs covering a period of from
six months to three years.
Most of this work falls directly on
the Legislative Department, but for
the popular support Of the legislative
amendments suggested the Informa-
tion Department is held responsible.
Broadly the big 1923 task of the
American Farm Bureau has been
sketched No account has been taken
Of the hundreds of specific daily Jobs
that pour into the national headquar-
tiers Of the American farm industry.
From one place will come a request
for special economic research work,
from another place cry for assist
ance In organization work or a request
for support in securing some local leg
lslation. Shippers from one end Of
the nation to another depend on the
Transportation Department to aid them
in securing cars sufficient for their
needs. Nor has space permitted a de-
scription Of the work done in develop
ing the home and community ideal of
the farm bureau. These are but de
tails in the big job Of protecting and
improving the well being of agricul-
ture, economically, educationalIy and
socially.

Cooperative Marketing of Live

When early this year the CO-opera-

at the Chicago stockyards took first
place among the hundred commis-iOn
firms doing business at that market,
the success Of the producers in their
plan to sell their own hogs, cattle
and sheep was complete. These
farmer-owned and controlled compa-
mics have now taken the lead at eight
terminal markets.
The first terminal marketing or

and resources to the development of
this form OF marketing. This division
has now well in hand a plan for CO
Ordinatlng all cooperative marketing

Following its WORK In 1922 the Infor-
nation Department has carried on an
extensive national educational cam

Legislative, Research, Relations, Or
