FRIDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 27,1922
LOOKING TO NOVEMBER 7 **rhe democratic party possesses today as much
intsUicence, statesmanidup and patriotisms any ipolitical party tbat has existed tiuoushoat the history of our country. When we analyze the ctMnprehensive doctrines and poUciea for wUch our party has always stood aad compare ^em with those for wldeh the r^ublican party, as dominated by reactionary leadership, stands, the conclusion becomes aparent that ours is the only party that offers to evory class of perscms and of legitimate business, and to every section of the country a complete national programme of sound and wholesome princifdes and policies.**
These words, coming from Cordell Hull, chairman ot the deoDocratk: natitmal committee, ef^ tomize the claims of the demoeratie party for anp-port at the polb on Novonber 7.
The Banting administration has to its credit a series of bn^en promises. The republicans, blinded by rosy campaign lights, praniiaed the nation prosperity. The present estimated wealth of the nation is $226,000,000,000, a decrease of $75,000,000,000 since Preaidait Harding moved to the White House. Our foreign trade has beoa cut ia half, dropping from |13^»0,000,000 to $6,-JDOO.OOO.OOQ, and our exports fw tiw euirent year amount to ^.TIQj^OdfiOO instead of $8,600,000.-000 as a year ago.
AMmtiaM fannen in two yean of r^rabtican rule face a loss of $30,000,000,000 in land values and products. The prices of farm products have
poied to refer to some of the,(dd Dumfries as "shanttes," a title which the up-to-date dents of Dumfries village are quick to reseot^ A lettmr u another cidumn shows that the expression was read by Dumfries and accepted as a blow to her dvie iMdde. And, what is more important, it also shows a spirit which prnraiw weB for the future development of that thriving Metikm of lowo- Priace K Iliam.
Without holding a brief fw the Herald corrttr sponde it, howevo-, it might be as well to assuaia that the word "shanties" was u%ed to txpnm the contrast to her former i^ry and not to unterste the village of today.

steadily declined, and for^gn markets which took care of the farmers' surplus have been d^troyed. Abe Martin knew something about the situation when he said: '^am lomax broke his back trying to shoolda' a dollar's ynrth of Harding' oats.*
As many as 6,000,000 men have beoi icBe at Oi^ime since Harding took the reins. The ruh-
<4Jw atpenses of the government have been in-cnaased by ^.000,000,000. The cost of liviitg re-1 mains high in the air. Not a single pn^teer has I beai convicted. The Mexiom problem is holding its own where the demoCTatrleft it two yews agp.
A dominant issue is taxation. Republicans voted to c£ncel the exeess pn^ts tax and individual income surtaxes of 20,000 big taxpayers and to increase the tax of 20,000 small producing ew-porations. They yoted to rdieve the wealthiest people in the country of over $50O,0Q0.OOO a year in taxes and failed to think about the small individual ta:QMiyer's bank account.
The Fordney-MieCiBnber tariff l ^ is a dmce cQitribnti(»i to the hif^ cost of liring. What this bin has i^ne to tSe farmer has been itanixed like this:
New tax on fertflizers costing the farmers of the country $45,000,000 a year; galvanized wire iuseaaed from 15 per 6eat ad valorem to ^ ce«t a pound; hsmess hardware, now frte, tadEefi'tt per cent ad valorem; common horseslip^ j#ii|:W«*!« CSaistiw Adweate t<Sw*«bnti). free, to pay raie-fifth of a cent a pound; drilled horseshoes, now free, new duty 1 cent a pound; horseshoe nails, now free, to be taxed IV^ cents a pound; chains increased from seven-eifi^ths of a cent to S cents a pound; wire nafls, now free, hereafter 1 cent a pound; shears, bow 20 per cent ad valorem, to be taxed 20 cents a pair plus 50 per coit ad valorem; metal buckles, now 15 per cent ad viUorem, will pay iMreafter from 5 to 16 cents a hundred i^os 25 pw cent ad vafcwesn; handaawa and crosscut saws, now 12 pw cent ad vakreei, wiUpay hereafter 80 per ceirt ad valorBBa, an. !»• crease of 160 pw cent; hidw and wagoi bloeka, now free, taxed 10 pa- cent ad valorem.
House furniture, now taxed at 15 cents ad va-lorran, wffl have to pay 60 per cent advakroa, an increase ci 300 per cent.
Food, mecBeiDe, dothing, everything that the pay envelope has to cover, shows a subatanttal ioerease, which adds to the harvest of the tmsts and profiteen. '
Pofaape the America^ p e o ^ when they mart at the polls on Novadier 7, wffi ai^ wittt tey think of repabiican rule.
Better than gold is a peaceful home, Where all the fireside eharitiea tamer— l l ie shrine Of love, the heaven of Hfe, BaBowed by mother, or sister, or wICa. However bnnUe the hoBM may be. Or tried with sorrow by Beaven's doeree. The Uessings t ^ t never were boogfat «r sold. Aadcenter then, are bettor tbsn goU.

DUMFRIES VS. NEW AMSTERDAH The sea having slipped away from old Dumfries,
and witii it her form«r commerce aqd her fame, aiia "New Amsterdam" having taken Eer place aa tiw great metrc wHs of the new world, a little story which recently appeared in the WasUi«t«B Herald mains interesfing reMiing today.
A HeraW correspondent, writing in roniniscent vdn of old Dumfries, recalled a letter written by a pre-Revirfutionary citiiea of the then ioorisb-ing Virginia seaport to a frie«d ia New Terk then New Amsterdam, asking his opinion of a report that New Amsterdam might one day become an important port like Dumfries. The Dumfries patriot did not believe it. but was ready to have the views of his northern friend.

YUg FARM BURBAP IB THE BIGGEST ORGANIZATIOK OP FARMERS THE ^VORLD HAS EVER SEEN
LEADING THE FARM BUREAU
t When Jame* R. Howard, Prendent of
the Amoican Farm Bureau Federatioa, l o ( ^ up at yon from hii deric in the Federatioa't.Geiieca] Office* at S8 East Waahington St., Chicago, you know you have mtt a-real man with a purpooe. . H B office ovelooka Lake Mkh^iao and on a dear day he can see mcrom to the fruit foma tf Benton County, Mich. But he
li^ not m ^ e office modi. Hia dutief a« ^ /ccMdeat of the tnggtat farmen' organica-'tion keep him constantly on the go—
q)eaking at fanners' meetings, addressing business men, conferring wkh natioaal kadcn^-lnspecting the Great Lakes Waterway, «tidying Musde Shoals, eta., e tc
Jim Howard left his farm in Marshall County, la., owe day in November, 1919, to attend an organisation meeting in Chicagtt. He expected to be back in a couple oTdlys to feed his cattle. But at that neetiag he found hlmw If sdectr iW
head the new American Farm Buraan Federation, a job he has hdd ever since.
It was a tremendous responsibility, but Jin Howard rose to it.
President Howard's 488.acre farm is at Clemens, Iowa, in Marshall County. He calls it "Homeland." Elms and maples surround the fine old farmhouse which he has modernized with his own hands, installing his own plumbing, furnace, and light plant. Great cf ops <rf com are grown on the Howard farm. Every year Jim Howard feed* from 200 to 300 spring pijis and 2 to 6 carloads of steers. He keeps a band of ewes also, and contributes a carload of fat lambs to the worid's mutton Supply.
Mr- Howard is « years old. After completing his high school course, Howard attended GrinDeiL.and Penn Colleges in Iowa. His college career was finished at the University of Chicago, where he. specialized in economics and history. After finishing his college course—he taught economics in a collqie ia South Carolina for a time. Then he went back to Maf-shatt County, Iowa, and was mntied. He was cashier of the New Providence State Bank for' a time and then bought the old home. About tea yean ago dM success of his farming operations b ^ n t« attract the attention of the Iowa State College. He bdped oi^aniae and was the first president of the Marshall County Farm Bureau. When the Iowa Farm Bureau Federatioa was orpuiiacd, he was dccted its fizM ptesidnt. When the American Farm Bureau Federatioa was otganiMd, he mis elected its first pnaideat.
No one who has *ae»- Jim Howard doubts that he belang* to the modem •c^Migolre^){acm<ra.- U« ttan^s fid six feet taU'aiid is kao and fit. He .can%a not' a pound of supcdlaoos weight ahd tips the scales at 197. The grq) of his handshalr, the light in his eyca, and his smile beqieak a peiaonah'ty behind which a tenacity of purpose is linjiad with a rin-ccre qrmpathy with ewrybody^-—d farm people in particular.
Amencan Farm Bareaa Federation Gives Wool Growei^ Real Service
As a result of a meeting of wool growers called by President Howard of the American Farm Bureaii Federation in the fall of 1930 for
the purpose of ccKisidering improved methods of mai^eting wool, 'A permanent marketing committee was named, conaictiag of James N. iMcBtide, Lansing. Mich.; E. L. Moody, Rushvilie, New Yock; F. L. |Fitcfa,' Linneus, Mo.; V. G. Warner, Bkwni&eki, Iowa; and J. E. Boog* iScott, Coieman, Texas

As a^rsaait of the Eataigeacy Tariff, ia^ pnifstiuas of forsign wool have decraasad from aa average of 45,000,000 poonds a month, from January. 1921, to May 27, 1921. to about 12,000,000 pounds per month: a decrease of about 78 per ocsrt ia importations, while the Coosamptjoa ai domestic wool has iacreaaed approxi-raately 100 per ceat over the same period ia 192a

Making. PiesidMits erf Fanners
A gtreat many of the men whose names are so familiar in Farm Bureau affairs now were not known twenty-five raiks away from their own farms three years ago. Their fame wentoo ftilMr than a reputation for godd citizenship in their own Ipcality.
They quit plowing one day to attend a meeting and got put on a eommittee. The farmer, who does his committee work well, finds that tiie next time he is made chairman of a more important committee. in gratitude for his services his neighbors may dect him to office in the County Farm Bureau. Holding this office he stands a good chance of becoming a member ot the executive oonuaitteeof tiw State Farm Bureau.
It's only me more step to a stat? office, and the farmer who was shucking com on his own 160 iii absolute obscurity just a while ago finds himself attending a Kve stock maiiceting conference or a convention to which fanneta Ske himself have come dear across the United* States toattend. He makes newcontaf;t%4md bescomes a national figure. Perhaps he ir-falled to Washington and goes to see the President in the Wbtie House. AH thetiiule he is developing wisdom, if he has wise stuff in him, and an al>8ity to speak the minds and hearts of his Deigbbors. He accepts responsibiUty amd responsibility malas him smt.
There is not a leader in the American Farm Bureau Federation or any of the State Farm Bureau Federa"tions who has not risen by just such a path. This democratic way of choodng haders fromi the ranks is one of the keynotes of the success of the Farm Bureau. It is the reason why all the Fana Biacau work has been practical and »hy its accom-plishnKnts have cxactiy covered the vital needs (rf the real fanners.

Co-opcratioB m'ithin the ranks is the thmg about the F' - m Bureau that speaks most for the organization. In no other organixtion of it« size is the individual member so important: in the Farm Bureau there is no recognition of inferiors or superiors. If there is a final authority it is-jhe man on the farm. He elects the oScers, hires the experts, and directs the policies. It is not dependent upoq the persoiulty of any one human. No Napoleonic general is marshaUiax its progress.
In itsgo^'e^lment it is a true democracy. Referenda are taken on ail questions where the administrators are not sure of the farmers' sentiments. Before the American Farm Bureau Federation submitted a legislative program to Congress a questioaoaire was sent to the entire membership of a million farmers and further activities were based on the answers. Community meetings were held • in the IMO organized county Farm Bureaus in the L'nited States and a "yes" and "no" vote taken on such questions as a personal rural credit system; the iocrcMog of the limit on Federal Land Bank mortgage loans from $10,000 to i25,000: the iwuanre
of all tax-free securities; the Excess Profits Tax; a General Sales Tax; the Packer Control fiill: farm-to-market roads and the contfruction of traas-continental highways; the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway; short-selling in agricultuxvl. products and tmtji-in-fataric legislation. L_
At another time when the Joint Com. mission of Agricultural Inquiry wanted some real evtdence from the farms, the Farm Bureau held county hearings ia e\-efy organized section and got real facts and figures from farmers, bankers, sheriffs, school teachers, preachers, dealers, etc.
There is no inner political enclosure leaving the mere member out in the cold in this organization. There is DO "holy of holies " TTie farmer who is in, is in and ready to greet the next one with a glad hand. There is work enough for every one. The greatest work of all, the work for which the national organizatioa primarily exists, ties in the township ia the Farm Bureau community club. When you sign your check for the memberdup fee, do so with the knowledge tfa^ nowhere in the organization is their aKgna-ture more important than your own.

THE fanner's happiness and his pocketbook are both intimately tied up in the [M^lem of transportation. It has cost too mauy
.farmers their entire crop to get it to market. The Farm Bureau has I been in the fdrefront of the battle for lower freight rates. Its work ha* been effective. A total of a third of a billion (kdlars per year has been saved on the farmers' freight bills every year. If you are aa average farmer this means at least $50 few you evwy year-^-enoiigh*to pay I Farm Bureau dues for fiv« years.
These savings were brought about iii (several ways. The Farm Burtnu got {railroad valuations for the purpose of com-jxitiiig guaranteed eamiags reduced fay )tb« sum of $1,700,000,000. This of coutw ^«suhed ia an anmial saving of 6 per cent ^ that amount or $102,000,000. The
/^Fann Bureau's arguments in the grain iaad live mack cases won dw day, and saved the farm shippers another $100,000.-XMW on theo- anaual freight biH. Then a Jietition was filed demandiac immrdiafe redoctioas in freight rates on basic Jsitica of liie, to be foUowwl by farther i«-^octioa as fast as savings ia operatiaf ji UMiisn oouM be affectad. Thia was {allowed afanost at once by the raQroads an-aooadng a vohutary reductiin of 10 per Uent on a^icultural -commodities, a clear jaaving of another $43,000,000. The ao-jtivities of the state Farm Bureaus in securing intrastate >ductiaDs on-linieatoae, ^iiit,,|nQlaaaea. etc , haw saved tiw shi]>-jperr at least enbu^ to make' np a grand total of a bBUon a year, or $50 per fvm.
Sfate Boreas Activa.
Much has been-accomplished by the •tate Farm Bureau acting in co-opieratiaD iwith the American Farm Bureau in bringing about revisions of rajiroad rules and ngulations affecting farm prodoots. For instance, it seemed wise to make an effort for a sub^antial reduction in rates pa agricultiffal limestone within a state las a test case which other states might follow. At the request of the Traffic Manager of the .American Farin Bureau Federation worked out a scale' of rues. The Taanmda accepted it: k is knrer than any other scale on agficoteaial limeatoac 'Within the United States and is being used by a majority of the Knes ia several states. The TiafEc Dqwnraent has also made a •pedal anrvey of the rates on agricultural jhnestone ia the soutlwaat, A e beaefts • f which are avaflaUe l o all the autes in ^ t secti—•

Captain Chaiiea Boet^er commanded tiie iTf itiihip "Gdansk" which carried tlw i n t (oiuiciuBest of gift corn donated for relief m Europe by the (arraos <A America, through the American Farm Bureau Federation, when she sailed from het fier at the Brooklyn Army docks, New York, the nooaipf May 5. 1921. Captain
Boettger has been commanding veawli carrying relief supplies to Eun^ie ever since the signing of the Armistice. The steaiaahip "Gdanatc," of the Paiial»-Ameri-can line is shown at her pier in the Army dodcs at Brooklyn, New York, a few hours before she sailed at noon, May 5, with the' first shipment of the gift com to starving people in Europe.
^^ ^ ^ ^
jTTERE U just a small portion of the firet consignment of the rift 1 1 corn donated by the fanners of America through the American P™««^ »^ orderly adiu<n>ent of
jFarm Bureau Federation for relief in Europe, lyinc tnt&fii ta the J" "*""" "" <l"Wtt~''°° "" •"="•"*••** Ipio' a t the A r m y docks, BrookKn, New \ < rk. ' *'*'' consumption is recognised as wj»e
managemcat in every business but uiat of farming.- Yet, I venture to sny, there is no other industry ia which it is so important to the puttie—to the city dweUcr —that production should be sure, f C^^y. and increasing, aad that distrttiation should be in proportioa to the need. The unorganised farmers naturally act biindly and impulsively and, in oonaequ«>cc, surfeit and dearth, accompanied by dis-coBccrtittg price variations, harass the consumer. One year potatoes rot in the fields because of excess production, and there is a acarcity of the things tbat have been displaced to make way for the ex-paasioa of the potato acreage: next year the puairiied farmer* mass their fields oa some other crop, and potatoes enter the class of luxuries; and so on.
Let us, then, conuder some of the < farmer's grievances, and see how far they { axe reaL la doing so, we should remem- > ber that, while there have been, and gCiU are, instsnres of purposeful abnse, the subject dKKild not be approached with • any general imputation to existing dis- ; tributive agendes of deliberately inten- j tional oppresnon, but rather with the ^ .conception that the marketing of fann ; products has not been moderaiaed. |
tbe Uodargra^ng Svfl. j Aa ai>cieat evil, and a persistent one, |
is the undcrgradiag of farm products, | with the re«ilt^that what the farmers 'selt as of one quality is resold as of a { h ^ ^ . That this sort of diicaaery: should persist on any important scale in | •these days of business integrity would seem almost incredible, but there is maeh I evidence that it does so persist. I » The difference between what the farmer recei gn and what the consumer pays often exceeds all possibility of justification. To cite a single illustration. Last year, according to ^gures attested by the railways and the gro^wrB, Georpa watermelon-raisers received on the a\-erage 7.5 cents for a melon, the railroads got 12.7 cents for carrying it toBaltimort, and the consume paid one dollar; leavii^ 79.8 cents for the service of marketing aad its-risks, as against 20J cents for growing and transporting. Tlw Wild' a n n ^ of i ina life are repkte with such oommeuUriee oa the crudeness of present practice".
SelUaK VBMifVrfsaim. Farm products are generally maHnted
at a time when tliere is a cuugestion of both transportatioa and finaace-^when cars and money are scarce. Tlie outcome, in maay instances, is tint the farmers not only sell under preassurt. aod therefore at a disadvantage, but are compelled to take fortiwr reductkme ia aet returns, in order to meet tW ciiargea for the services of storing, transporting, financing, and ultimate marketing ^ whidi dtapges, thay tJaim, are oftca exiesaiaa, bear hieavay oa bodi coawimrr aad pro-dactr, aad ai« aadefc tke cootrol of those perfdrmiiv the ssvices.

pactnesB and contignity, espedally in CaH-fomia, already have found a way legally to merge and sell their products integially and in accordance with seasonal and local demand, thus impcoATng their position aad rendering the consumer a reliable serv-ice of ensured qeality, certain supirfy, and j ' reasonable and relxtivdy steady prices.

Social Life in the Farm Bureau
Hie Farm Bureaus, devekqied en a county basia, arc increanngty affording opportunity for foaterinf a aiorc attractive rural life. The OMuity agent helpe solve agricultural and economic problems. The county dub leader organizea and carries on the interests of the boys and gtris, and the home dnnonstratiob agent works to make the prtMems <rf the home leas complex. Thus the entire family ia induded. Nearly all of die meetings of the local Farm Bureaus have recreational features. There is unlimited opportunity for the development of enjoyable, as wdl as helpful, sodal activities ia the local omunumty dubs or township farm bureau units.
Every rural community should have some ptacc sdierc neighbors can come together. Many conusuinities hsvc a Farm Bureau with fortnightly meetings at whidi topics KA iatcrest akmg agricultural and ectmomic lines are discussed. Smoe the farmer's wife and dtildr a are members with him and privileged to attdid, dw Farm Bureau meetings are the occastmi for a aetghbedy |^dierBi(. The leaders suggest games and other activitks ia iriuch die sAole faauly participates.-
The conception of recreation .as as impcKtant part ol rural life is age-dd. The joy of harvest as oqweasive of glorification of adueve-ment has for hundreds of years found esprearion in harvert festivab. Because the Farm Bureau is non^ xilitical and ncm-sectariaa it is aa ideal medium through which mend>erB of a OMBmuniQf team to kaow each other, play together, andj^tfi with united effort.
