side of agriculture, who have been
prone to view farm organization with
suspicion as seeking to establish a
barrier between the farmer and other
groups and industries, now realize
that an organization Of farmers for
the benefit of their industry, is as
essential to those engaged in the pro-
fession of agriculture as similar or
CARNATIONS are to other groups.
Object of Farm Bureau
The essential object of the Farm
Bureau is to better the economic con-
dition of our members, improve living
conditions in the open country, and
provide an organization for our far
mers through which their voice may
be heard on all matters of interest to
them, or affecting their industry.
In Minnesota. the Farm Bureau has
promoted the activities OF the extern
sion service of the Department OF
Agriculture, giving it the most un-
stinted support, both morally and
financially. The various counties
have contributed over $4,000 during
the past year to this service, besides
constantly bringing to the attention
of the farmers of the state the adj
vantage to them OF keeping abreast OF
the constantly changing methods OF
production and marketing of farm
products.
The State Federation has promoted
in every legitimate way the co-opera-
tive marketing of farm products,
knowing that cooperative organiza-
tions, properly formed and managed
will insure a better price to the pro-
Queer, without additional cost to the
consumer. The result is constantly
increasing loyalty on the part OF pro-
ducers to their organizations and a
very gratifying increase in the volume
of farm products handled through
them. Minnesota today ranks high in
the number of cooperative marketing
organizations and the quantity of pro-
ducts handled. There still remains
much that can be done along this line.
When all our producers fully under
stand the service these organizations,
when properly functioning, can render
them and the industry, their influence
and helpfulness will greatly expand.
Since the organization of the Farm
Bureau much helpful legislation for
agriculture has been enacted into law,
both in Minnesota and the nation.
Much of this legislation was promoted
under the direct leadership or through
the assistance of the organization. I
will not attempt to recount or analyze
these laws here. 1 can not forego,
however, reference to the effort made
at the last session of Congress to put
farming on an equality with other
business and occupation in the coun-
try. 1t was one of the greatest legis-
lative struggles ever enacted in the
American Congress. The Farm Bu-
reau- was one of the most potential
forces in this effort and while the
measure did not become a law the
full force of united agriculture was
felt and recognized.

Notes

Busy bees turn fragrant flowers
into honey money for thrifty farmers.
Sunlight Is the cheapest disinfect-
ant available around the average farm.
Successful live stock production Is
based On economical feed crop pro-
duction.
The garden work can be lightened
UNNECESSARILY II the rows are made
far apart so that horse-drawn imple-
ments can be used.
Cucumber bugs can be controlled
successfully by scattering hydrated
lime on and around the plants APP
ply every day while bugs are bad.
In sections where acid phosphate
can be purchased at as low as SIS a
ton it may pay farmers to use twice
as much as usual on their corn, or as
much as 500 or 900 pounds to an acre.
One of the most important things to
remember In planting young trees,
whether forest seedlings or fruit trees.
is to lamp the earth firmly around the
roots.
Test the seed corn before you plant
1t to see IL It will grow. Most seed
corn grown In New York last year is
poor because the weather was bad
and 1t did not mature well

in the United States where one man.
ufacturing company now boasts that
the traveller may go from the Atlantic
coast to the Pacific without using any
other than their own buses.
Operation of the Northland Bus
Company, by the Great Northern Rail-
way, during the past year, has been
watched keenly by other railroads
throughout the United States and
while no formal statement would be
made by the officers of the company
it is understood that the lines have
demonstrated their value as feeders
to the railroad as well as opening up
new passenger territory which other
wise would not have been tapped.
Other bus lines report that finan-
cially the growth has been beyond
their expectations and that they have
been hampered by an inability to OBJ
tain new equipment as rapidly as
needed. This situation is expected to
be remedied this year by the entrance
into the bus field Of many of the
truck companies who have been ex-
perimenting with buses.
Adoption of safety equipment on the
busses is said to be keeping pace with
the increasing use Of the new type OF
transportation. Many OF the buses
now operating in Minnesota have the
air brake system and are made nearly
fireproof. The bodies are being
strengthened and every possible care
provided for the safety of the passen-
gers lives.
Minnesota's bus system, considered
from all angles, is one Of the finest
in The land and one in which Mime
pride.

"The future growth of the United
States is unthinkable without the
great work done by the building and
loan associations" so great finan-
cial paper recently summarized an
article devoted to this important topic.
Nor would the early development of
Minnesota and the future Of our
state be thinkable without due hom-
age paid to the benevolent work Of
these institutions and the fair prom
Use they bid for the future continued
prosperity of the state. Even from
the days when the Indians sat in their
wigwams on the lake shores of Min
nesota, to the present era; small COM
munities have been given birth and
have gathered their strength and
gained their growth through the ac-
tivity of their local building and loan
association.
They have given Minnesota people
homes,-real homes. There are in
stances and many-where the citizens
boast of rs per cent, 80 per cent and
80 per cent of the home being financ-
ed through the building and loan as
ISOLATION; for instance, Slayton, AL
bert Lea, Red Wing, Hastings, Fergus
Falls, Tracy, Mankato, and scores Of
similar communities throughout the
state. They have come in these
smaller towns to be looked upon much
in the same light as the church,
school and public library, benevolent
institutions,-for. theirs has been a
benevolent service managed by a
board of trustees in most instances
serving without pay, for the general
good Of the community.
The occupation afforded local citi-
zens through permanent construction
in the community created payroll,
created a security for investors
equal to the choicest of foreign bonds
and kept money to work at home.
The result was, increased activity
and increased prosperity for all no
matter what their business or profess
sion.
The early conception Of our pio-
neers has born fruit We find those
communities that have strong build
ing and loan associations almost in
variably enjoy enviable prosperity.
Minnesota justly may feel proud Of
fits SO building and loan associations.
So successful has been their develop
ment that William Stephen NARROW,
writing for the Magazine of Wall
Street, accorded to associations of
Minnesota an "a" rating in a recent
nation wide survey. The associations
of this state are ranked with those
of such states as New York, New
Jersey and Ohio, and are placed three
grades above Pennsylvania, the birth
place of building and loan.
This progress is due to the cooper
alton of A. ]. Veigel, commissioner
of banks, with the state legislature
and building and loan executives In
cleansing this field of all promoters
by maintaining the strictest vigilance
over the conduct of each individual
association, and by having new
code passed in the 1925 session Of
the state legislature. The new code
definitely defines building and loan
associations as financial institu-

FARM BUREAU IS

81 Minnesota Counties United in
Effort to Better Agricultural
Conditions.
BY j. T. REED,
President Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation

President Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation
The Minnesota Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton is a federation of 81 County
Farm Bureaus in the state.
1t is the only statewide farm or.
ganization in Minnesota. 1t is also
the largest in membership of any in
dustrial, professional, or business or
ganization in the state.
Its purpose is to bring to the in
dustry of agriculture the benefits of
organized effort along educational,
economic, and legislative lines that
will be helpful to the farmer
In its educational activities it works
in complete harmony with the extern
sion service Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture and the Col
lege of Agriculture of Minnesota
through County Agents and Home
Demonstration Agents whose purpose
it is to bring to our farmers and farm
homes the best practices in husbandry
and home management, as developed
by the federal and state departments.
Necessity Is Realized
The necessity for farm organization
to enable the farmer to sustain his
position in the business and economic
field, is now fully realized by the far
mer and readily conceded by all other
groups in our national life. That it
is impossible for the farmer with his
100000 individual units to cope in
business way with group organizations
in other fields of human endeavor is
obvious.
From the beginning the farmer, al
ways thrown upon his own resources
and efforts, has strongly followed in
dividualistic lines controlling his in
dustry and economic condition. He
now sees this position does not bring
him equal status with other industries
and professions moving in group for
nation. AS our population grows and
competition tightens between indivi-
duals and industries, agriculture must
change its methods and policies in this
regard in order to maintain its posi-
tion in our national life. Those out

Destroy Weeds
by Cultivation
Perennial Plant Requires
Careful and Persistent
Treatment.

Eradication of weeds by cultivation
has been practiced for ages. Up to the
present time this method has general
ly proved to be the most economical
and successful.
Flowing weeds under covers them
with layer of soil that kills most Of
the living material. Later cultivation
destroys a large proportion Of the
seeds that have sprouted Still further
cultivation provides for the germina-
ton Of more of the seeds In the soil
and at the same time kills the seed
Hngs that have started.
Send Up Shoots often.
Perennial weeds, however, can
send up shoots as often as they are
destroyed during the season and re-
Quire a different treatment. Such
weeds are the worst weed pests In
Colorado and require more careful,
more persistent and more frequent cul-
tivation. During the blowing Of the
soil the roots that live In the upper
layers are broken up, and may be
dragged along the furrow by the pillow
to ground that is not infested with the
plant. When the field is being har-
rowed the dragging Of root fragments
is even more probable because they
will be moved to a distance and left
In loose soil that provides an excellent
place for growth.
Work Separately.
This makes 1t necessary to work
separately land infested with weeds
having roots that can grow from
small pieces. In such places consist
emit destruction of the tops as soon
as they appear will prove the best
remedy. A knife edge passed just un-
der the surface OF the soil In way to
cut off the young shoots, or duck
foot cultivator with sharp shovels In
several overlapping tiehs, will be found
the most effective of the machines now
In use In the mechanical destruction
of perennial weeds.-Charles T. Rog-
ers, Deputy Colorado State Entomolo-
gist for Weed Control.

Shorts Added to Ration
for Swine Helps Gains

Hogs that were self fed corn and
tankage at the Nebraska station,
gained about a quarter of pound
more a head daily, when shorts was
added to that ration. Gains were also
cheapened, and the hogs paid about
81 more profit head.
Shorts should not be used to replace
tankage, however, for 1t is no high
power protein feed of that sort. 1t Is
more like corn than tankage, but has
a higher percentage of protein, and
so will save a little of the packing
house product. In the Nebraska test
rs pounds of shorts took the place of
6S pounds of corn and Is pounds OF
tankage.
