But the straw which seemed &c
break the camers back was the sud-
den resignation of the man who had
served it as secretary for thirty
wears, from 1869 to 1890 When he
handed in his resignation and re-
fused absolutely to serve another
minute, the members of the order
feared that its last days had come
The reasons assigned by the secre-
tary for refusing to hold Office any
longer were sufficient to discourage
the most confirmed optimists among
the membership.
In the first place, he told them
that there was no money in the treas
ury. The order was not spreading
fast enough, he said. He complained
also that there was fatal lack Of
cooperation between grand officers
and those of the subordinate coun-
ellis. And last, but certainly not
least, the salary of $500 year was
too small. he averred As if that
were not enough to make the stoutest
heart quail, the abdicating secretary
informed the order that there was
only $3.50 in the treasury, and I'M
paid bills amounting to $500!
Maggie Walker Unafriad
If a bomb had been thrown into
the meeting at which the .informa-
ton was furnished, it could scarcely
have caused more terrifying diSmay
In the midst of this chaos and
confusion, while many were predict
ing that the order could not pos
sibly survive the fatal blow which the
secretary had dealt, Maggie Walker
was elected to succeed him.. To
make the Office just as undesirable
as possible, the salary was reduced
from $500 to $100 a year.
Nothing daunted. however, the new
secretary buckled on the arnor and
went to work. No sooner had she
entered upon her duties than the
organization took on new life and
began to grow by leaps and bounds
The new Secretary's personal mag
netism, her earnestnesS, her mark
ed ability as a clear, forceful, per-
suaSive speaker and her keen bust
ness acumen enabled her to work
wonders in building up the organiza-
ton in very snort time.
The $31.66 which Mrs. Walker
found in the treasury when she was
elected thirty years ago has now in
creased to more than 100000. And
that, too, in spite of the fact that
nearly 100000 in death claims
have been paid. The membership
has grown from little more than
5000 to 100000 women, men and
children. The old building which
formerly was used as headquarters
has disappeared and handsome

MAKING SURVEY TO BENEFIT
SOIL TILLERS OF SYRIA
AND RUSSIA

E. N. Stephanou of Damascus,
SYRIA and A. E. Zaitchik of Mac
COW, Russia, spent Monday after
noon, August rs, studying farm
conditions in Roosevelt county in
company with County Agent War
den. OF particular interest to the
visitors were the tillage methods
employed in the production of
wheat and corn and also the ma
chinery used in corn production.
Corn planters and cor binders
were new implements to the Rus
sian visitor, who believes that
they could be introduced with
considerable benefit to sections of
his own country where corn can
be raised profitab1y.
Mr.. Stephanou and Mr.. Zaitchik
have visited many sections of the
west during the past several
months and are constantly seeing
new things to introduce to Syria
and Russia. Mr.. Zaitch1k has spent
seven months travelling in the sew
eral western states. Mr.. Stephanou
has spent the past four years in
study at Oklahoma agricultural
college and plans to put in two
more years of study before re-
turning to Damascus. Farms Wis
tied during their brief stay in
Roosevelt county included the
Fairway Farm, north of Brockton,

not to reopen the case, which hao
been requested in several petit

supplemental application.
The merger of the Great Nor.
thern and Northern Pacific was
approved by the commission some
time ago on the condition that
they dispose of the Burlington,

petition Monday the two roads
declared a reopening of the con-

The carriers suggested that
when the revised application has
been filed with the commission
hearings be held at which inter
veners may be heard.
In replying to the allegations of
those who have opposed the merg-
er, the carriers denied that en-
ployes of the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern railway were
not given an opportunity to be
heard in the consolidation pro-
ceedings. The carriers held that
the employees as well as all other
parties claiming interest in the
proceedings, had been heard and
that the commission had taken a
large amount OF evidence as to

upon business interests"
The roads also denied the pub

received recently from similar
state agencies in the affected ter
ritory. The Great Northern and
Northern Pacific notified the COM

The approval of the merger drew
in congress, particularly
from northwestern members, and
Chairman Couzens of the senate
interstate commerce commission
introduced a resolution to hold all
mergers in allegiance until his
committee had made an investi-
cation.
The two roads served notice
simultaneously with the filing of
another petition in the case Mon
day. This came from the Illinois
commerce commission which sub

1929 crop. Practically unlimited
funds are available for loans to
growers on the 1880 crop. We ex-
pect to handle additional millions
of bushels on a loan basis for
farmers this year.
Farm Storage Advised
Storage on farms presents the
cheapest method by which a farm
er may hold his grain in the hope
that prices will be higher when
he desires to sell. The insurance,
storage and carrying costs are
the cheapest of any method of
storage. The storage of grain on
farms prevents that grain from
showing up in visible supply fig
ures and further depressing the
prices.
without advising the farmers
to hold their wheat for higher
prices or to sell it at the present
or any other time, if he desires
to hold it, the farm storage meth
cd is the cheapest and most to
his advantage.
Methods Perfected
Machinery for the making of
loans to farmers on farm-stored
grain is now ready to be set in
motion. The machinery has been
we'll over-hauled, oiled and should
perform much more smoothly than
a year ago, when the plan was en-
tirely new. Application blanks
have been carefully prepared and
funds will be available to farmers
more rapidly than on the 1929
crops"
