One day they were up and when ther co-operative company could not get cars-for shipping and the storage bins were full then the competing -elevators would cut the price away below the market price to bmke up for what they lost.

Much o f this trouble p£ charged to certain competitors. 0 . E. Bradufte, bead o f the State Farm Bureau organiatioii was next called upon and he gave a Very in­ teresting talk,as to the future out­ look for farmers. -He stated that the time has come when farmers must stand and work together in common interest to protect themselves. Far- ' mers have not*been business men and have failed to do business in a busi­ ness-like manner. Other interests are organized like labor unions and manufacturers and though only a comparatively few la­ boring men belong to the unions yet the whole world can hardly stop them when once they'make their demands Every line the farmer produces brings more profit to those who handle it than to the farmer. Wheat and wool . were -cited as two examples wherein the farmer had nothing to do with setting the price at either epd o f the game. There are 200 such elevators as this in Ohio; 100 in Michigan and ‘400 in Uinois. .The speaker told o f attending a meeting* last week at Ames* Iowa* Where the heads of state farm bu- ' reaus met to discuss marketing of grain; getting assistance from Fed­ eral Reserve Bank on wool*, and to wards central elevators o f great ca­ pacity. The question o f freight cars ♦for moving grain was taken up and an experienced rate man has been employed to look after the farmer's interests. The farming business is a big bu| iness and if it ! b to remain such it must be done in a big business way. The proposed increase in freight rates of 25 per cent would cost the farmers o f this country 500 million dollars Farmers have the right to organize for self protection and they should be organized alt along the line.
