Bureau Federation Set
for Membership Campaign
Energetic Drive to Strengthen Units
Under J. S. Jones' Direction
Meeting Date Set ?

After weeks of preparation, the
Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation
is ''set" for its 1924 campaign to in
crease it's membership and to mater
tally strengthen the township units.
At meeting Of the executive board,
held last week, j. S. Jones was form
ally placed in charge of this work
with the title of organization mana
ger. Mr.. Jones will continue to
serve as secretary-treasurer until
such time as his organization duties
make an addition to the office at st.
Paul necessary.
S. E. Elliott, who has been director
of the News Service and Investiga-
ton Department for nearly two years,
was reelected to that position for the
fiscal year beginning April 1, 1924.
During the meeting, the Board ap-
proved of plans for extension of the
Federation's Farm Home and Com
munity program, now being prosecuta
ed under the direction of Mrs. E. v.
Ripley of Menagha, member of the
board. Four women are cooperating
with Mrs. Ripley on this project.
Dates for the next annual meeting
were set for January 6, and 8,
1925. Early action was taken to
avoid possible conflicts with other
meetings of armers that usually are
held in the Twin Cities at that time
of the year.
Routine business occupied the time
of the board most of the time it was
in session.

Accepted Hay Measure
Holds Out in Weight
Hay Measured by S. L. Ingram and
E. A. Richards at Accepted Stand
ard, Weighs Out

The question of whether or not a
stack of hay measuring 7X7X7, max
ing a total of 343 feet of hay will
weight ton or not is much mooted
question among farmers and others.
Nov. Is S. L. Ingram sold quantity
of hay to the Home School for Girls.
The hay was carefully measured by
Mr.. Ingram and E. A. Richards on
the 7X7X7-foot basis-t the basis
used for wild hay, the tame hay basis
is generally 8X8X8. The five stacks
of hay purchased by the school
measured 14.34 tons of hay. 1t ac-
ually weighed out on the Home School
scales los tons. This did not in
clude the hay taken from the top of
the stack, the hay left on the ground
and the amount lost off each load on
being transported from. the Pangburn
farm to the Home School. The re-
suits indicate pretty clearly that the
measurement basis is essentially cor
rect. The hay was measured by Mr. :.
Richards and Mr.. Ingram Nov. Is,

The Central thus far in March has

cuced to $685. from $685., a cut OF
$40, while the Willys-Knight stand
ard sedan has been reduced SlOO TO
S1695. All these are Toledo factory
prices.
Accompanying the announcements
is a brief statement from John N.
WHY'S, president of Willys-Overland,
setting forth the reasons for this re-
markable action:
january and February production
has exceeded all expectations. during
the first month of the new yeaer we
manufactured 22,048 cars, more than
double the output of a year ago. In
February we maintained an average
shipping record of more than thous-
and cars daily, closing the month
with total shipments Of 22,136.
''This remarkable increase in de-
mand has stepped up production to a
point where our production costs per
car have been lessened. In the case
of the Overland Champion, for ex-
ample, we find that we are able to
maintain its position as the lowest
priced enclosed car on the market,
with doors front and rear, because of
the tremendous demand that has en-
sued since the original announcement
of this model last fall. We have
stepped up our schedule on this model
and even now are unable to cope sat
isfactoriIy with our dealers de-
mands."
Parallel conditions are accountable
for the cut in price of the WHY'S
Knight Sedan.
During the current winter, de-
mand for closed cars outstripped all
anticipation" continues the state
ment. Gin no single year of the in
dustry has the sale of all-weather
models advanced so rapidly as it
has during the past six months. Our
plants have been fairly swamped with
orders for this type. The result has
been increased in closed car produc-
ton, with a proportionate decrease in
production costs, in which we are de-
sirious of allowing the public to par
ticipate."

Very Bright Future for
the Potato Organization
State Committee Says Members Have
Reason to Feel Proud of New
Agency Membership 1929

Farmers of Minnesota who have
signed the contract of the new Min
nesota Potato Growers Excha nge
have every reason to feel proud Of the
organization. This statement was
made in formal resolution adopted
by the general state committee, at it's
final meeting held recently in st.
Paul.
1t was passed by the committee, af-
ter full day had been spent going
over the work and making careful
analysis of the organization work
and the financial status of the move
ment. The resolution was drafted by
Frank Kiene of Kennedy, chairman
of the committee in Kittson county,
who has signed contract covering
700 acres-nearly twice that listed
by any other grower.
"The General State Organization
Committee" the statement says, "af-
ter careful investigation, finds that
most difficult organization job has
been well done, and in an efficient
and business like way. With patience
and loyalty by the members who, in a
spirit of real cooperation, have made
the movement possible, Minnesota is
assured of the largest cooperative
marketing agency for a semi-perish-
able product in the history of the
world"
No effort was made in this resolu-
ton to express the appreciation of
the committee to those who had been
instrumental in completing organiza-
ton. Rather, it was the committee
official statement of assurance to the
membership on the campaign itself.
On March 20, belated contracts
reaching the state office boosted the
membership to 1929

THE ACID TEST OF LOYALTY

An up state philosopher, resident of
a live, progressive city of eight or
ten thousand population, rises to re
mark that loyalty to one town should
be the acid test applied to those who
seek civic honor or preferment. Here's
his story:
owe have brilliant woman in our
city who is candidate for position
for which she is we'll qualified. The
salary is adequate, the duties pleas
ant, and yet she is not to be consld-
cred. The reason is that for twenty
years she has been the head of club
that has been patronizing mail order
concerns, and through her influence
hundreds of thousands of dollars have
been sent out of town, that should
have been invested withour own mer-
chants.
s'The business men are the heav-
lest taxpayers, and they have paid
the greater portion of the bills for the
things this woman has enjoyed.
"They have Quilt school houses, and
paid teachers for the education of her
children. They have given her po-
lice and fire protection, have built
good streets, provided public parks,
lighted the city for her safety at
night, increased the value of her prop
erty, given her pure water, and con-
tributed in every way to give her the
advantages of a good well governed
town, a fit place to bring up her
children, and to make life worth
while. They have built and support
ed churches, which have given her q
Christian civilization. Yet in all
these years she has been disloyal /.
That is the reason why she will not
receive a position for which she is
well qualified. The citizens do not
propose to reward traitors"
That may be trifle strong, but
it does indicate that the business men
of that city are awake to their own
interests, and the welfare OF their
community.
Probably there are men who are
just as disloyal, and they too forget
or ignore the fact that they should
be real part of their community, ano
should be fair to the men who are
building up the city and giving it the
things that are necessary for a worth
while town.
We trust St.. Cloud has none Of
this class of men and women.
There is just as much patriotism in
supporting your own town as there is
in backing up the government in
time of war. Those who send then
money away from home, when they
could do just as we'll, and many times
even better, by patronizing their loca
merchants, are shortsighted slackers
The acid test Of loyalty begins right
in your own Main Street-St. Clouo

WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, Mar. 26-Public re-
action on the exploitation of scandals
concerning those in high offices is
slowly leaving its mark on Congress.
Gradual recognition is given to the
fact that the public would not accept
the idea that the Senate alone pos
sessed kind of omnipotence that is
capable of banishing all evil and Sc
curing all good. It seems that the
ventilation of sensational charges fails
to sway the citizens from their belief
that anything short Of mayhem may
be expected for political purposes dur
ing campaign year. The legal action
to protect the government and bring
about the prosecution Of those guilty
of criminal wrongdoing has been in
stituted in Wyoming courts but this
most important step in the whole
naval oil lease affair is conveniently
overlooked as it has no value in the
tsspread-eagle" oratory of the day.
Perhaps, in fairness to a few of the
more conscientious Senators, it may
be said that it is more easy to regard
their own appreciation of their own
acts as marks of public judgment In
their favor. The testimony In the
Daugherty investigation has taken an
insidious and reprehensible form.
Even those having little regard for
the present Attorney General admit
that the Brookhart- Wheeler commit
tees prosecuting rather than prose
cutting Daugherty. Because Of the
general resentment against Frank
Vanderlip, the banker, for his I'M
founded charges against the late Pres
fdent Harding, thinking people, re.
gardless of political utilization, will
naturally lose confidence in the ac-
Invites Of a committee which accepts

SAYS WATERWAY 100 COSTLY
Joint Development of St. Lawrence
-. Would Set Bad Precedent.

-. Would Set Bad Precedent.
Ottawa-The plan to develop the
st. Lawrence waterway project as a
joint arrangement with the United
States would set bad precedent, j.
Archambault, Liberal member de-
clared in the House. If any canal
were built it should be the Georgian
Bay canal, he said.
Archambault asserted the project was
too expensive, and would be of no
benefit to Quebec; even an inquiry
into the possible cost would be too ex-
pensive, he added. He also criticized
the removal of Judge Migenault from
the International Waterways commits
sion, declaring Quebec was left with
out representation.
The member referred to a report
made by w. L. Cooper, an American
engineer, who, he said, estimated the
cost at $1,450,O00,00 and said that
during the winter months he canal
would be but 20 per cent efficient.
