WISCONSIN FOLLOWS
MINNESOTA IN ASKING
FOR FARM EQUALITY
EARN Bureau News Service,

After three years of discussion,
Wisconsin farmers-at a statewide
two-day meeting held in the Univers-
ity of Wisconsin gymnasium at Mad
ison, October 13 and 14-drafted reso-
buttons in exact accord with the plat
form adopted by Minnesota farmers
at ST. Paul in the summer of 1924.
In 1924, at the time the big Mime
sofa farm congress was held at the ST.
Paul Auditorium, Wisconsin farm or
ganization leaders, the Badger state
newspapers and its leading agricul-
tural publications declared that if
Minnesota farmers would practice the
arts of husbandry in the manner of
Wisconsin farmers, the troubles of
Minnesota farmers would be at an end.
Now Wisconsin farmers are expert
encing the same troubles as their
Minnesota brethren and reluctantly.
but none the less decisively, have an
nounced to the nation that Wisconsin
is for equality of agriculture and have
called upon Congress to come to their
aid.
The recent Wisconsin congress was
addressed by Governor Fred R. Zim-
norman, DR.. Glenn Frank, president
of the University of Wisconsin, and
]. F. Reed, president of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation. More than
fifty farmers in attendance at the
large Wisconsin gathering, expressed
themselves publicly on the situation
of agriculture in the state.
1t was disclosed that forty-nine per
cent of the valuation of farm lands
in Wisconsin were mortgaged for cap
ital investment. Representatives of
the largest cooperative in the state,
the Wisconsin Cheese Producers of
Wisconsin, strongly urged through a
resolution adopted by the congress
that President Coolidge increase the
tariff on cheese fifty per cent.
A resolution unanimously adopted
by the congress which was attended
by representative farmers from nearly
every county of the state said:

I'VE believe that agriculture is en-
titled to equal consideration and pro-
lection with other industries; Where
as, agriculture is the only industry
which is not equally supported by
state and national legislation; We
therefore request that the Congress
of the United States enact such legis-.
lation to place agriculture on an
equally protective basis with other
industries"
In the summer of 1924 Minnesota
farmers and the friends of agricul-
ture in the northwest held at st. Paul
an Agricultural Congress where ex-
actly the same thought as the above
quoted resolution was expressed.
From every speaker during the six
sessions of the Wisconsin Congress
the dominant thought was expressed
and reiterated, over and over again.
that under the present system Of agri-
culture in Wisconsin, farmers could
not sustain their industry under the
present laws of congress, and loudly
called for equality with other groups
in their industrial life.
From this it would appear that far.
mers and the friends of agriculture
depending on the industry in Wiscon-
sin have thoroughly awakened to the
inequality under which agriculture
is trying to operate with other groups
in the industrial Life of the state and
nation.
Provisions were made at this Wis
-consin congress for central group
or committee to work with similar
groups in other states in the agricul-
tural section of our country to bring
about an equality of opportunity for
those who have their homes and make
their livelihood on the farm.

President Wants Dads"
To Visit University
Yearly Open House Set For
October %, Day of the Wiscon-
sin Game.

Minneapolis, Oct. 26.-Minnesota
fathers, by a proper understanding
of the conditions which surround sons
and daughters, can help immensely
to make the years at college more
truly significant. So says President
Coffman of the University of Mime
sofa in a letter in which the father
of every student has been invited
to be a guest at the University on
Dads Day., October 29th: Every
invitation includes a special blank
emitting Dad" to priority on two
tickets in the special Dads Section
at the Minnesota Wisconsin football
game, the big home game of the year.
The fathers will be asked to attend
dinner at 6:15 p. m. in the Mime
sofa Union at which representatives
of the University will tell them what
is being done for. their children. One
of the fathers will respond, telling
what he thinks of the University of
Minnesota. Coffee and doughnuts
will be served just after the game to
warm up those fathers who were sit
ting in the stands.
1.-THE University of Minnesota is
making preparations for celebrating
it's fourth annual Dads Day." says
the presidents invitation. 1--WE cor
daily invite the father of every
Minnesota U. student to spend the
day on the campus getting acquainted
both with the University and with the
life his son or daughter is leading
while at the University.
Education is not alone matter of
books and laboratories; education is
life. During the years which are
spent at the University, numberless
influences are affecting the develop
ment of every student every hour ev-
cry day. What he thinks and talks
about; what he comes to give APP
proval to; what he develops a taste
for, as well as love for; and scores
of other potent factors in moulding
life, are being determined by what
the student does outside of class quite
as much as by the class room activ-
tiles.
Fathers, by proper understand
ing of the conditions which surround
sons and daughters can help immense
ly to make the years at college more
truly significant. The University is
an agency of the state and does not
belong to the regent nor to the facul-
ty. Come to it as your own institu-
ton; get acquainted with it; give to
the administrative officials as we'll
as to your own sons and daughters

A Prayer.
BY Emily Taylor Perkins.

BY Emily Taylor Perkins.
I would be kind. / can no longer pray
For paltry things that used to, seem
so great
Before my sorrow left me desolate
And death swept glamor's binding
veil away.
Like Thee, Whose loving kindness is
my stay
Along the dreary path tread of late,
/ would be kind.
Yet, not for kingdoms would change
to-day
This broken heart. Lord, help me
consecrate
Its bitter sorrow to alleviate,
AS one who knows, the grief of others;
yea
1 would be kind.
