Farley Reveals Economy Plans
After Talk With Woollen, Drive
Chief, and Frank C. Walker.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 13.-With the
national battle for ballots now formally
under way, both Republican and Demo-
cratic chieftains turned today to the
task of raising the millions necessary
to finance their campaigns.
jeremiah Milbank, Republican East
ern treasurer, announced the appoint
ment of Henry p Fletcher, former Tar
if Commission chairman, Ambassador
and Undersecretary of State, as chair
man of the Eastern finance division.
He will join Milbank, Wall Street
banker, in directing the drive for funds
in the II Northeastern States.
At the same time it was disclosed at
Republican Eastern headquarters that
for three days conferences have been
held there between kingpins of the
Eastern campaign over the finance
problem and questions of policy.
Democrats Confer.
In the Democratic camp, James A.
Farley, national chairman, went into
conference with Evans Woollen, In
diana banker, who heads the Campaign
Finance Committee, and Frank C.
Walker, National Committee treasurer
AS they came from lengthy discus
sion OF their money-raising problem,
Farley announced. I'VE will try our best
to keep our expenditures within ST.
100000"
Previous estimates of the Democratic
budget had ranged from $3.50, 1000 to ST.
100000.
The figure now set Is less than one
fourth the amount spent by the party
in the unsuccessful effort to elect Al
Smith.
Farley explained small budget total
will be possible because Of numerous
economies being inaugurated and the
fact that many expenses previously
borne by the national organization will
be shouldered this time by the States
themselves.
He said this weeks conferences with
leaders from every corner OF the coun-
try had disclosed willingness on the
part of the State organizations to do all
possible to keep the national budget
down.
South, he said, the State groups will
attempt to get along without asking the
National Campaign Committee for
funds.
Deficit Still Problem.
One Of the Democratic economic prob
lens still not entirely solved Is what to
do about the present deficit OF approx
mately $400, 600, some Of which Is owed
to John j. Raskob, Farleys predecessor:
A meeting of those who will direct
Democracy's money-raising will be held
Wednesday. A complete plan OF pro-
cedure will be drawn up and the ques-
ton of the deficit may be dealt with.
Farley also announced an innovation
in campaign procedure war council
of party battle leaders a month before
the election to decide on any necessary
changes in strategy and to point the
campaign efforts in the most propitious
directions.
During the week." he said, I'VE have
had State chairmen here from all over
the country. We have indicated to
them our plans and they will go home

FEED THE COWS "A
WE'LL BALANCED RATION

The time has about come when
cows will have to be taken off Of
pasture. The winter program which
means one Of largely artificial
feeding. For the dairyman who has
planted his crops this season SO
that he now has some form Of sup
plicance and possibly some home
raised grain and good supply Of
hay, the future should not look
dark. We find it is almost impos-
sible to balance q dairy ration

because Of its high protein con-
centrates. Corn and barley make
ideal grains wheer feeding large
quantities Of alfalfa hay, but Of
course should be supplemented by
possibly some oats and ! little lin

age or roots or squash to feed -
supplementary to the hay, then
one can balance the ration nicely

CON blame them for trying to re-

discuss that question. The private

One of the favorite points OF at.
tack Just now is the salaries paio

fact is that the cooperatives are IN
the big business class. Big bust

that a bill has been introduced In
Congress prohibiting cooperatlves
from paying salary of more than
$4,000 a year. Such law-h

COOPERATIVE MARKETING
ISSUE

Attacks on the Federal Farm
Board continue with intensity, I'M
til one would think by reading
some of the city dailies that all
that is needed to restore prosper
ity is to repeal the Agricultural
Marketing Act. 1t is noticeable,
if natural, that the bitterest news
aer attacks come from those cities
where rivate dealers in farm pro-
ducts are most numerous. 1t is
fairly apparent that the outcry
is not altogether popular up
rising, but originates in part with
commission men, brokers and spec
ulators in farm products.
The heaviest broadsides of crit
icism are leveled at the stablii-
cation efforts of the Farm Board
Its buying and holding OF wheat,
cotton and so forth to maintain the
price-but there is really not much
controversy on this point, for it
is generally recognized that this
feature of the act was not worked
well and it is not likely to, be in
vokel again. The more serious U.s.
sue involved is whether the ef-
fects of this attack may splash
over onto the cooperative market
ing activities which are the more
fundamental and more construct
i've phase of the Boards work.
The assistance of the Farm
Board, financial and otherwise,
has stimulated the growth OF CO.
operative marketing, particularly
in the terminal markets. That
growth, of course, leaves less bus
mess for private handlers. The
latter are only human, and no one

FARM ADJUSTMENTS

Many of the farmers of the
county are making farm adjust
ments in order to bring about a
situation which they feel will be
one which, at least, comes nearer
guaranteeing them q living in
their ability to pay taxes, if not
to make money during these times.
Agriculture in the west and par
ticularly we think in this county
is going through this period of
readjustment. 1t was for this rea-
son that the farm record work
was started four years ago, with
the idea of getting a true picture
Of number of changes in the
county, so that we might have
first-hand information in discuss
ing the situation later.
It is the plan this year, to hold
a series of meetings covering all
communities of the county and any
one else wishing to come and dis
cuss this vital problem Of just what
enterprises should be followed and
may come nearer assuring the
family of at least a livelihood,
will be discussed. There undoubt-
eddy will be at these meetings some
diversity Of opinion. By meetings
of this type which were held last
year a definite constructive pro-
gram was brought out.
We would like to ask at this
time, that if possible farmers give
little more thought to this prob
lem so that he may come with def
mite constructive ideas. I believe
most of the farmers have come to
the point that for the immediate
present steps which must be taken
to help themselves, must be taken
by themselves, either singly or col
lectively. / do not mean to say that
the tax situation and probably
some of the other large issues
should not be offered, but | am Of
the opinion that there is a strong
feeling toward change Of some Of
these things as far as the general
public is concerned. These will
come slow. In order to put them
selves in to the best position he
must engineer his own farm and
community program first.

QUACK GRASS CONTROL

Z
Quask grass as an orchard pest
has been a problem which worried
us considerable because of the
danger Of treating any perennial
weed in the orchard. We have
been watching very closely the at
tempts on the part Of some farm
ers, to control this weed by cult
walton. We have found some farm
ers succeeding. Success however
means careful attention to thoro
system of cultivation on the early
infestation with this particular
weed.
We believe from all of our OBJ
servation that quack grass can be
controlled by cultivation more
readily than almost any other
perennial root stock weed, which
we have.
Now that the irrigation season
is about over we believe that it
would be well for the farmer hav-
ing quack grass in any location TO
play it up leaving it exposed to the
winter weather, as much as pos
sible. It may be well to even
harrow this a reasonable amount
in order to check the Roots loose
and leave them on top. Next spring
one should then follow careful
system of cultivation and we be-
lieve one can be reasonably assur-
ed of getting rid of this pest by
the end of another year.
