Farmer Groups Favor
Hog Buying Control
Pass Resolution Censoring Report
on Governments Investigation
of Direct Buying

Alarmed at the misleading report
on direct buying as investigated
by A. A. Dowell, superintendent
of the Crookston, Minnesota
School of Agriculture, and releas-
ed by the U. s. Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, January IA, far
mer groups have been stirred to
action. Resolutions critizing this
report, which is 100 per cent fav-
orable to direct buying, were pass.
ed by the Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation, and the Minnesota
Livestock Breeders Association
during the Farmers and Home
makers week at the University
Farm, st. Paul, says the weekly
market bulletin, issued by the
Central Cooperative Association,

disadvantageous to producers, ID
misleading. This was the sub
stance of a resolution passed un
animously at the annual meeting
Of the Farmers Livestock Market
ing Association, held in Chicago
last week. This organization is
composed Of nine farmer-owned
livestock sales agencies at South
st. Paul, Sioux City, Omaha, St
Joseph, Denver, st. Louis, Kansas
City, and Chicago, the annual
business of which organization
aggregates approximately $4,000
carloads Of livestock.
c. b. Crandall, president Of the
Central Cooperative Association,
Of South st. Paul, and vice presi-
dent of the Farmers Livestock
Marketing Association, attended
this meeting and reports that far
mers throughout the corn-belt are
seriously concerned about this re-
port, which sanctions the continu-
ance of present Instantaneous
practices of direct buying that
many packers employ.
Mr.. Crandall says, There are
two sides only to this controversy.
Those favoring direct buying are
on the packers side. Those oppos-
ing direct buying are on the far
mers' side. The directors Of The
Farmers Livestock Marketing
Association, at their first meeting
in Chicago last week, urged the
establishment Of federal supervis-
ion of weighing, grading, docking
and fill of livestock, at concentra-
ton yards and country buying
stations, and the placing Of direct
buying ON the same basis that ex-
lists at terminal markets. This
will return to agriculture bargain
ing power which will place in the
farmers hands the sales factors
that are now in the hands Of the
packers who operate direct.
Legislation to give this protec-
ton to livestock producers has
BEEN designed in the form of he
Capper-Hope-Wearing Bill, which
asks for Federal supervision and
regulation of direct buying. Bills
for supervision of weighing at dir
ect buying points also have been
or are in the process
of being introduced in state legis-
latures Of Minnesota, North Da-
kota, South Dakota, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas.

SENATE DECIDES AGAINST
JOINING WORLD COURT

Washington, Jan. 30.-The 74th
Congress Of the United States voted
to keep America out of the World
Court Wednesday. The roll call,
which wrote climax to II years of
controversy, showed 81 votes for
joining the court and SO noes
With 50 voting this was seven votes
short of the required two-thirds.
Northwest Senators who voted
against the world court were: Ship
stead and Schall, Minnesota; Nye
and Frazier, North Dakota; Bulow
and Norbeck, South Dakota; La
Toilette, Wisconsin; Dickinson and
Murphy, Iowa.

11:55 inches. In annual precipdta-
ton the greatest fluctuation has
been from 1850 inches In 1910 to
40 inches In the following year, 1911
There has been a decreasing
trend in precipitation over the 4C
years prior to 1888, in the northern
tier of states, and a rising trend In
the south.
In Minnesota, for example, the
average for 10 years ending in 1905
was approximately 29.5 inches, and
for the decade ending with 1888 the
average is just little more than
20 inches. In other words, the for
mer ten year period had nearly 30
per cent more rainfall than the
latter.
An examination Of the long time
record for the Twin City area
shows that conditions similar to
those now being experienced have
occurred twice before in the last
100 years. Plotted as a trend line,
1t would show three low points, the
decades ending In 1848, 1894 and
1888. The averages for those years
are practically the same. Thus, our
recent drouth was no more severe
than those Of 40 and 80 years ago.
DIR. Thiel said there Is no evidence
whatever that man can accomplish
anything by efforts to create rain
artificially.
The total annual fall Of water
from the skies on the earth's entire
land area, he said, is about 26,600
cubic miles. In polar regions the
snowfall represents only from eight
to fifteen inches OF water, whereas
on the southern slopes of the Him
alaya mountains the rainfall may
be as much as 500 inches a year. In
deserts only few inches fall per
year, and three years have been
known to pass in the Canary Is
lands without any rainfall.
An amount of water equal to the
whole volume Of the oceans is taken
up by the atmosphere and poured
back over the land about once in
1900 years, and during the course
OF geologic time 1t Is estimated that
this cycle has been completed some
10000 times. On the other hand,
one-fifth Of the evaporation over
the earth's surface comes from the
land, while four-fifths come from
the oceans. But much of the water
evaporated over the oceans fall
back into lie sea. OF it's total
amount only about seven percent is
carried over the land and precipi-
tated there.

B. Conant of Harvard university an
nounced that all members of the faculty
must take the oath.
Mather is considered one of the fore
most men in his field in the world and
it is difficult to understand his objec-
ton to the oath. 1t cannot be that he
does not desire to support the consti-
tuition for, as he says, he has taken the
oath on various occasions. He served
as captain of engineers in the World
war and is undoubtedly loyal citizen.
He is merely one of many educators
who have expressed opposition to the
taking of loyalty oath
Assuming that these educators are
loyal citizens, we can see no logical
reasons for their objections. Almost
all public officials of any importance
have to subscribe to an oath to support
the constitution of the United States
and that Of the state in which they re-
side. An educator holds position of
high Importance He has almost un-
limited opportunity to mould and form
the beliefs and convictions of the youth
of the land AS matter of fact, he has
a much greater power for the veal or
woe of the nation than do scores of
public officials. Therefore, it does not
seem to us that the loyalty law is dis
criminatory against educators any more
than it is against public officials.
The vast majority Of educators are
loyal to the government under which
they live They should therefore have
no objection to subscribing to an oath
to support that government in every
way. Those few who are not trust
worthy citizens unquestionably would
object to subscribing to loyalty OATH
And those who are not stanch support
ers of this government most assuredly
have no business teaching the youth Of
the land their disloyalty.
