tees which have grown up in the hand
ling of different commodities on the
way to the consumer. Some cooper
atives have fought such trade prac-
tees for years and tried to bring about
orderly marketing. Now the new legis-
lation brings the government to the
conference table and makes the gov
eminent party to agreements and a
partner in cooperation. Some prom
inent farm leaders see big possibilities
in the trade agreement section of the
new law, not only for growers of basic
commodities but for practically all
farm products
Prices of poultry, fruits and vege-
tables, the principal non-basic agri-
cultural commodities, have consistently
ranged higher than the prices Of the
basic commodities during the past ten
years, the five preceding the depression
and the three years of the depression
itself. They are somwhat higher at
present in relation to the pre-war level,
than are prices of basic agricultural
commodities and the average price of
all agricultural commodities. While
these non-basic commodity prices are
relatively higher than the basic COM
modify prices, they are nevertheless
considerably below pre-war exchange
levels. Insofar as they are depressed
by unecononic marketing and detri-
mental trade practices, the provisions
of the act should, if utilized, react to
the benefit of producers of these COM
modities.

BOND ISSUE VALID

The ten million dollar bond issue, passed by the
last session of the legislature, and subject of
much controversy, decided to be valid by the
state supreme court this week.
The bond issue enacted on the theory that
an ncipient insurrection threatened the state and
that it is far better to nsurrecton incipi
ent insurrection by promoting prosperity, rather
than by the use of bullets.''
Not all of the judges of the supreme court be-
leved that the legislature had the constitutional
right to involve the state in an indebtedness of
more than the 100000 limit set by the constitu-
ton Three of the judges wrote minority opinion,
one i'll and did not vote, and five upheld the
majority.
The majority rules however, and no one will
dispute their statement that it is better to use an
ounce of prevention than pound of cure. By de-
Gliding that this bond issue is Valid they have left
it to the legislature and the governor to deter
mine when the state is in danger of Instruction
or INVASION which will save lot of red tape if the
question ever arises again.

Dairy Industry Expects
To Act Under Farm Law

Washington condenseries, creameries
and milk distributors are already or
ganizing for the purpose of establish
ing a set Of trade agreements and
trade ethics to improve conditions in
the dairy industry under provisions of
the new agricultural adjustment act,
according to r. M. Turner, extension
economist, Washington State College.
The primary purpose of the new agree
ments will be to raise and standardize
butterfat prices. The ensuing organi-
cation is expected, in turn, to simplify
and standardize the marketing of milk
and it's products
Provisions of the trade agreement
section of the farm act would raise the
price of milk and butterfat to pro-
ducers through orderly marketing and
limiting the spread between the price
of milk on the farm and to the con-
sumner in order that the farmer may

Says the Wenatchee World in recent editorial:
"In the matter of building roads our great state
of Washington is both prodigal and penurous.
ut is prodigal in spending hundreds of thou
sands Of dollars in places that might just we'll
wait for two or three four or five years. 1t is
cutting corners at a tremendous expense, thus
throwing away paved highway that might have
been used years yet in the future.
1T is penurious in some Of those places like
the road between Vantage and White Bluffs. Just
because part of the road is in county that is not
particularly interested, the whole road is being
held up and will continue to be held up unless
there is big noise made by the folks up and down
the river. This is really an inexpensive piece Of
highway that should be completed and thus make
connection for the north and south highway"
1t is up to the residents of this valley, if they
wish to have further outlets for their early pro-
duce, to make big noise about this road, and to
make certain that those in charge of such matters
become interested in this road

Eighteen varieties of soy beans will
be tested this year by the State College
experiment station, Pullman, and the
irrigation branch station, Prosser, to
determine what varieties are suitable
for this state. The non-hardy, low
producing kinds will be eliminated.
Two types will be tested, the oil seed
type having hairy seed pods and the
smooth podded type used as green
beans. The oil seed varieties are often
used as feed for livestock and the
others are often used as human food.
Recently flour mill in the middle
west started manufacturing white soy
bean meal. This product may be mixed
with wheat flour to raise the protein
content and to improve the moisture
retaining qualities of the flour.

secure the benefit of any price in
creases. Tentative plans would return
approximately 80 per cent of such in
creases to the dairyman. Unethical
practices in marketing, such as price
cutting, rebating and unfair compe-
tition have seriously lowered prices to
producers in some instances. The new
agreements are not expected to cause
any unwarranted rise in prices to the
consumer.
Powerful Backing
Trade agreements worked out among
professors and distributors of dairy
products under the new law have the
powerful backing of the secretary of
agriculture. If necessary, as a means
of control, the secretary has the power
to license all professors, distributors
and handlers of dairy products. The
secretary can revoke the license of any
operator who fails to carry out the
agreement, while fines running up to
$1,000 day are provided for operat-
ing without license.
If trade agreements are not sue
cessful, the secretary has the alterna-
tive of contracting with individual
dai1ymen to deliver a controlled pro-
duction of milk or butterfat in return
for an allotment or adjustment pay
ment. Money for payment of the allott-
ment or adjustment payments would
be collected from tax on the first
processing of dairy products. The tax
would be paid into the United States
treasury and in turn be paid out on
an allotment basis to contracting
dairymen. The plan would be volun-
tary on the part of dairymen but would
undoubtedly not be used unless trade
agreements failed or all dairymen
could be benefited.
One of Washington's large milk
shippers associations has been oper-
ating successfully on trade agreements
for several years and considerable
optimism is held for the success of
similar plans over the entire state. The
association agreements operate between
milk shippers, milk distributors and
the milk drivers union. Although ap-
plying only to small region the
agreements have helped considerably
to stabilize the local market.

Farmers Must Watch For
And Halt Perennial Weeds

(By County Agent E. C. Durdle)
This is the season of the year when
the perennial weed is making it's pres
ence definitely known to the farmer
who is on the lookout for this pest. Of
all the weeds which we have in the
county we believe that hoary cress and
Siberian mustard are probably the
worst from the standpoint of spread
and of control with probably one ex-
ception-that of another rank growing
perennial mustard found northwest of

BONE BILL HELD UP

More than the necessary $4,000 voters signed
the petitions for the referendum on the Bone Bill,
and that measure is now held up until the 1884
elections when the citizens of the state vote on it
directly.
Had the necessary signatures not been OBJ
tanned, the bill would have become operative by
now. IF the larger cities of the state had so de-
sired, they would be able to extend their power
lines into eastern Washington communities, thus
coniscating property now on the tax rolls and
increasing the tax burdens in these communities.
While the bill was called craftsmanship
measure it is not so in the true of the term.
1t is, instead, ipal-ownership measure, for
the preferential benefit of certain municipalities,
and would allow one community to saddle another
community with it's tax burden
If the people of the state want public owner
ship, they should be allowed to have it, but they
should not be forced to assume the obligations of
another community through such legislation as

titled now by it's pure white bloom and
decided odor of the flower, and the
fact that crushing of the leaves or
stems will bring out the characteristic
mustard odor. The Siberian mustard
is so near like the hoary cress that it
is likely to be confused with it but the
color of the bloom has a slight purple
tint just as it opens. The important
thing is to identify these weeds be-
fore they become generally spread over
the farm and second to take immediate
steps to prevent their going to seed
and are spread by cultivation prac-
tees, including blowing, narrowing,
and rilling. These weeds both produce
an abundance of seed. Since they are
now in bloom they should be easily
identified. Unless you want tremen-
dous job ahead of you, take immediate
steps to hold them down to the pres
ent area. We have found the above
weeds in every community of the coun-
ty.
Other weeds which one should be on
the lookout for are Canadian thistle,
easily recognized by its very prickly
leaf and small purple, or in few in
stances in the county, white, thistle
like bloom. Another is the Russian
nap weed which has mustard shaped
leaf when first shown in the spring,
but these gradually narrow down and
become smoother along the edge until
the leaf may not be more than 11l
inches long and, u inch wide at the
top of the plant. Possibly the easiest
method of Identification of this weed is
the black outside covering of the root.
Others which should be watched for
are quack grass, perennial rye grass,
bermuda grass, sand dock, and morn
ing glory. Questions as to Identical
ton of any of these weeds will be
gladly answered by the county agent.
Where one has the necessary funds
probably the best plan would be to
take immediate steps to eradicate the
weed. Where time and money does not
permit this, then by all means steps
should be taken to prevent the weeds
going to seed or being spread by Gull
tivation.

Trade Agreements

Trade agreement provisions Of the
farm act can be used to great ad-
vantage by the producers of non-basic
commodities. The act authorizes the
secretary of agriculture to enter into
agreements with associations of pro-
ducers or with professors and distri-
butors of any agricultural competing
commodities. These would include
fruits, vegetables, poultry and other
non-basic products. The purpose of
these agreements is to insure fair re-
turns to producers and equitable mar

Washington orchardists, poultry
farmers, vegetable growers and others
are expected to profit directly or in
directly from the agricultural ADJUST
ment act as well as producers of basic
commodities, declares r. M. Turner,
extension economist at the State Col
lege of Washington Only basic COM
modities such as wheat, dairy products,
corn and hogs were listed in the act,
partly because they are practically all
on an export basis and suffered rel
atively greater price declines than
other farm commodities not specified
in the act.
Changes in prices of basic commod
tiles tend to influence prices OF other
farm products. Any increases in prices
of basic commodities brought about by
the operation of the agricultural adj
justment act will benefit producers of
other farm commodities. The purpose
of the entire farm act, as expressed by
George N. Peek, federal administrator,
is to raise farm prices This purpose
contemplates higher returns to pro-
ducers of all agricultural commodities
as we'll as to producers of basic COM
modities.
So-called imitation powers in the bill,
administered by the President and his
treasury aides, and not by the depart
ment of agriculture, are designed to
raise the general price level of all
commodities, agricultural and indus
trial. Such measures raise the prices
of raw materials first. A rising price
level would tighten the burden Of debt,
interest, and taxes that farmers as
we'll as city men pay The effect of
imitation measures may benefit pro-
ducers of non-basic commodities more
than the producers of basic commod-
ities SURPRISES of basic commodities
may tend to prevent the price rise that
would normally be expected.

FEW PROF|TEER|NG .
PROTESTS RECEIVED
Head of N. R. A. Protective
Bureau Says Virtually None
Are From Consumers.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Designated by the National Recovery
Administration to handle complaints Of
profiteering, Mrs. Emily Newell Blair
said today amazingly few" protests
against increased prices had been re-
ceived by her protective bureau in the
Consumers Advisory Board.
Practically none of the complaints"
she added, have come from the ulti-
mate consumer-the housewife, the la
borer and the farmer. The majority
have come from retailers and professors,
and not more than three have been re-
ceived against any one industry"
The retailers and professors, she ex-
planned, were complaining that they
have in some instances been forced to
pay higher prices for articles they must
buy from manufacturers to offer their
goods to the public.
I'VE are in a ticklish position in try
ing to make the public see that the
National Industrial Recovery Act con-
templates price rise. But at the same
time we must protect the public against
profiteering.
So far, She added, not a single case
had come to her Office which ''on the
surface and from my own knowledge
could be classed as profteering"
The Protective Bureau has been Gre
ated as a clearing house for proflteer-
ing complaints and to advise Hugh S.
johnson, the recovery administrator, on
these problems.
1t has no administrative functions. 1t
is now developing definite policies and
standards in conferences with lawyers

RIGHT TO CRITICIZE
\. R. A. DEMANDED
Dean Alderman Warns Free
dom of Press Must Be
Guaranteed in Code.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 16.-Declaring
I'VE have Government today by emo
tion rather than by public
opinion" Dean Carl Ackerman Of the
Columbia School of Journalism said
yesterday the constitutional right of
the freedom of the press" must be
guaranteed in the drafting of a news
paper code under the N. r. A.
There can be no effective substi-
tute for the free and complete publica-
they are unfavorable to the Govern
ment," the journalist said in a state
ment concerning the code hearings.
Dean Ackerman has just returned
from an automobile trip through 10
States, from New York, South to Vir-
ginia and West as far as Illinois.
Saying he found "an unhealthy state
OF mind" he reported there was con-
siderable private criticism of Gen.
johnson and the National Recovery
Administration. This criticism Is at
present submerged because of the para
dox OF President who is supported by
the public because of their confidence
IN MIN and an administrator of the
N. r. A. who is supported because of
the public fear of him"
says FuOuclty is FACTOR.
Dean Ackerman said he found as
another reason for the present situa-
ton the "high-pressure publicity
through public meetings, advertise
ments, conferences, movies and air.
planes"
"As result" he declared. eve have
government today by emotion rather
than government by public opinion"
Nelther the President nor Gen. john
son, he said, can maintain their in
nuence with the American people in
oennlteIy by relying upon public emo
tlon. 1t produces an unhealthy situ
atlon because it makes men and women
afraid to criticize the Government
publicly. The result is widespread sup
pressed criticism
Dean Ackerman said such suppress
sion, from the Presidents standpoint.
Will be unfortunate because word CT
mouth comment can undermine public
commence in him as quickly as it can
enmlnate fear of Gen. Johnson"
Press Must Interpret"
The press, he said, has willingly CO.
operated with the administration in its
N. II. A. program. News columns have
been wide open and editorials for the
most part have been friendly. Certain
~ IAiC NONCL Has DGeD given the
benefit of every doubt For this stu
alton to continue, it is as essential to
the Government as it is to the public
that facts and opinions be printed
freely every day. There can be no ef-
fective substitute for the free and COM
plete publication of news and editorials
even when they are unfavorable to the
Government. The press must retain its
position as the interpreter as we'll as
the reporter of public affairs"
Since their freedom is guaranteed
by the Constitution" Dean Ackerman
said the newspapers are not likely to
suffer permanently from either "an Of
fetal or inspired boycott
In this emergency. however" he de-
clared, the Government needs a free
press because national unity based upon
public opinion is far more reliable and
lasting than national action based upon
public emotion"
