Urge Need of Statewide
Business Organization
asSSsssssssSass sSs&sssa

When the business interests of the
State gathered in Seattle recently in
conference with wheat growers,
Chamber of Commerce officials, and
the bankers, on the proposition of
supplying funds to needy farmers to
purchase seed wheat, it demonstrated
emphatically the need of an organiza.
ton composed jointly of business ex.
ecutives, bankers and farmers.
Such body or civic organization
working in close harmony will do
more to cement the urban and subur.
ban business interests together than
anything which can be done. 1t was
with this in mind that last summer
John Fl. Mcintosh, manager of the
Federated Industries of the State, the
representative organization of bust.
ness and Industrial executives,
launched the movement which result.
ed in several farmer-business mems
conferences in Seattle. The FEEDER.
ated Industries is representative of
business and industry in the state.
The farmers represent one industry
which belongs properly to the feder.
ated group.
The taking into the state federation
of a strong group of farmers, repre-.
sentative of all the various lines of
agricultural activities, will unite all
classes of business.
The State Of Washington is on the
Threshold of an Industrial develop.
ment era which will oyershadow
everything which has gone before.
The construction of the Priest Rapids
hydroelectric project means an eYpen-
diture during the next three years of
something like s11O,OO0,00O in Central
Washington. 1t means the placing of
water upon 100000 acres of now arid
lands. These lands will be adjacent
to new city OF not less than $4,000
inhabitants, an industrial center which
will be featured by a payroll second
to none in the state.
The development of this proposed
new model city, the placing under in
tensive cultivation 100000 acres Of
land, means that within the next four
years there will be an influx OF more
than 100000 people into the state.
With this rosy future ahead, and the
fact before it that in the past every
effort has been put forth to create
feeling of friction between the farm
ers and the industrial and business
interests, the State Federation of In
dustries in deyoting a large amount
of time toward building up closer CO.
operation and better feeling be-
tween the business executive Of the
city and the business executive on the
farm.

PLAN EARLY BLAcKBERRIEs

1T is hoped to develop an earlier
producing blackberry than the stand
ard Bverbearing blackberry, to fill in
the gap in the harvesting season be-
tween the raspberry crop and the
blackberry crop" says Dean E. C.
Johnson, director OF the State of Col.
lege of Warrington Experiment Sta
ton. discussing berry Investigations
that are being carried on at the col
lege. Should this be successful it
would be of material help to the can
ming industry as well as to the berry
growers themselves.
"As winter KILN gof the vines is
seriously affecting the net returns
from many fields, and modifying to a
large extent the quality of the fruit
produced, this is another problem
receiving our consideration"

BRINGING UP FATHER NOW

We have just heard on very good
authority that there is at present in
Japan a group of strictly American
figures, known to practically every
one in the United States, says the Ho-

ularity in that oriental country is un-
precedented. This group consists of

than enough to pay for the land that
grew the crops. And the best thing
about it is that the farmers of this
and adjoining states still have unsold
about 30 per cent of their wheat and
will get the highest prices for it that
have prevailed since the war.
"The farmer, l believe, has profited
by his experience during recent lean
years. There is a pronounced senti-
ment in favor of crop diversification
that the agricultural department OF
the Great Northern has been preach
ing for years. Most farmers, I be.
lieye, are planning to save little
operating capital to make themselves
more independent of the banks. The

Northern territory and everywhere l
have found farmers planning to do
building and extensive repair work
that they could not do during the
war and that they could not afford
since then.
This is undoubtedly going to mean
a big spring and summer business
banks also are declaring for more
conservative policy regarding farm
loans. All this points toward more
stability in the agricultural situation.
More proof of this attitude is the
situation in North Dakita where
Arthur G. Sorlie, elected governor on
the Nonpartisan League ticket, has
declared his belief that there should
be no extension for the present at
least Of state ownership until the
state owned institutions, including
the state bank and the state flour
mills, have shown what they can do"

relations for the Great Northern Rail-
road
There has been wonderful change
for the better in all the farming
states of the Central West" says Mr..
Flynn. From condition of despon-
dency bordering on despair caused by
a burden of debt that it seemed i'm
possible to carry longer, the average
farmer has been transformed into an
optinist with money in the bank who
Is looking forward to period OF real
prosperity.
This change has been followed by
a marked improvement in other lines
of business, including the railroads,
largely dependent upon agriculture.
'Of particular interest to the Pa
cific Northwest is the fact that the
farmers of the Central West are 60
ing to buy more lumber this year
than in any other year in the last
decade. My work for the railroad

mills and welcome increase in traf-

Mr.. Flynn before joining the Great
Northern organization was practicing
law at Devils Lake, N. D., and was
farming as a side line. He cited con-
ditions in his own state as typical
of the change in the farmers situa

Feed No Smutty Wheat

Smutty wheat should never be fed
to chickens, says Prem Moore, poul-
try extension specialist of the Uni
versity of Idaho. If, however, the
wheat can be washed at the mill, it
may be used with perfect satisfaction,
Mr.. Moore adds.
Wheat is better green feed than
rye. Rye is not a good chicken feed.
In fact, of all the grains it is the poor
est. The only time rye may be used
at all is in the spring, while young,
as green feed.

Ruth's illness, described as an at

that the appearance of assesses on
his back made surgical attendance
