THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL,- PORTLAND, OREGON' SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1921. efficientmarketing BETTER FARMING '2 6 a ...... PROVISIONS OF MARKETING BILL ARE EXPLAINED By R. C. Stewart Many measures were passed by the Oregon legislature In its session just completed which are of special interest to farmers.- None o2 them can com pare in value to farmers in general with senate bill 284, which regulates cooperative marketing. At the time of this writing, the gover nor has not yet fixed his signature, but since- this bill passed the house and senate almost, unanimously, there can be but little doubt as to its final indorsement. Hereafter, as provided by this bill, no one will be able to question the legality of truly cooperative , marketing agree ments among producers in Oregon. This hill makes marketing agreements legal and above question and provides for injunctions and court proceedings to hold in check any movements started by enemies of cooperative marketing to in duce members of associations to break their contracts. GROWERS PCNH BII.I, This bill, legalizing cooperative asso ciations and their contracts, was intro duced in 'the senate by the committee on agriculture and forestry. It passed the senate with only four dissenting votes. . In the hbuBC strong opposition was encountered and the bill was referred to t.hfi judiciary committee. This com mittee finally decided to return it to he houne without recommendation. Although California canning interests and other corporations outside the state were stronirly opposed to the bill, after a sharp debate of two. hours in the house it again was passed with but four votes in opposition. The majority which th hill received in the house was large ly due to "the fact that growers, and especially members of the cooperative associations, were aware of the strong corporate Interests opposed to the bill and bad been in communication with their representatives. OT COM BIS ATIO.V It is provided in the bill thai it is the public policy of Oregon to encourage the production of agricultural products, to stabilize marketing .conditions and to eliminate speculation. And to this end it shall be lawful for members of a cooperative association to unite or con solidate all Iheir business activities. Provision is also made that should any member of such an associajion break his contract, the association shall be en titled to an injunction to prevent fur- ther breach of contract. And pending the adjudication of a suit. the. associa tion shall be entitled to a temporary re- strainingordfcr against a member. It is also provided that no association complying with the terms and purposes of this bill shall be deemed a combina tion in unlawful restraint of trade or an unlawful monopoly, or an attempt 7 arbitrarily to lessen competition or fix prices.; Nor shall the marketing con tracts or agreements . between the asso ciation and its members be considered unlawful tr In restraint of trade. Bt RKAT GROWS RAPIDLY This hill finally places the state stamp . of approval upon collective marketing. It Is an indorsement of the principles which the producer has been fighting for for a long time. In past years, producers were working for this and other constructive legisla tion as '.individuals jor small bodies who could not make their voices heard. Since the organization of successful j coopera tive associations and especially since the producers of the state have started to work together under the Farm Bureau i federation, the producer is able to se , cure legislation which is beneficial to L the farming industry.

Green, owner. small percentage of the farmers are taking an active part in farm bureau and other self-beneficial movements. Other producers are benefitted from the exertion of these few. It is up to the rest of the producers of the state to pet behind the farm bureau movement and cooperative associations in order to secure the greatest benefits from these movements., COSTS LITTLE t RESULTS BIG The cost of joining the farm bureau is small. Ninety per cent of the mem bership fee Is used in the home county. Ten per cent will go to the support of the state and American federations. The county portion of the fee is used for educational work, projects and other matters which, will directly benefit, the farmers of the counties. The. other 10 percent is used to secure beneficial leg islation, promote cooperative and other favorable movements, to hold hearings on matters of interest to the producer and to generally take care of the farm ers interest throughout the atate and nation. The .same spirit which has prompted producers to enter collective marketing associations is inducing them to work together, in forming the farm bureau. It is this spirit which has prompted them to wrk together in securing the legis lation which is of general value to the producers of the state.

McArthur re cently appeared before the agricultural sub-committee of the committee on ap propriations and urged favorable action on the proposed item of fl, 978.800 for Kf oiierative bovine tuberculosis eradica tion. He said in part : "Bovine tuberculosis is not Only a pri vate question which Is of great concern to the cattle owners of the country, but it is likewise a question in which the public has a decided interest. It be hooves the public, therefore, to appro priate money to reimburse breeders who are willing to have their herds tested and diseased animals destroyed. The plan now in vogue contemplates a divi sion of losses between the federal gov ernment and the state government and -the ownrs of condemned cattle. . 'I am advised by the department of agriculture that 469t herds of cattle, containing more than 125.000 animals, have qualified for the accredited herd list by passing two semi-annual tests without a reactor or suspect, while 16. 599 herds, containing more than 200.000 animals, have passed one test with a view to being accredited. The bureau of animal industry deserves great credit for the vigor with which it is carrying on the campaign against bovine tuberculosis." Nearly every advertiser on the farm pages issues a cataJogue containing valuable information to farmers. An swer these advertisements always men tioning the farm pages of The Journal. FARMERS READY TO GIVE MARKET PLAN The farmers' grain marketing committee of 17. which is holding its meeting in Kansas City, is ready to, announce its marketing plan as soon as the details of financing have been decided. Representatives of the National Wheat Growers" association, who developed, last weeTs at Chicago, a marketing plan, appeared and asked indorsement of that plan, which is a commodity' plan rather than collective selling. SKEK TO ISTEKEST GKOWEKS Subcommittees have been appointed and are attempting to work out co operative agreements with the National Wheat Growers' association. Bernard M. Baruch, who has lately been ac tively studying cooperative marketing, appeared before the committee and ad vocated licensed warehouses and na tional grading and a financing corpora tion to interest the investing public in buying farm notes secured by warehouse receipts. BARUCH I.IKES CREDIT IDEA Baruch said that the farmers needed foreign markets more than credit. With the war over, the world has the oppor tunity to buy . the surplus production of the farms. He agreed that the farmers must con trol their own credit and was enthusi astic over the idea of a J100.000.000 in stitution being owned by farmers and manned by experts. In his estimation, no difficulty could be seen to make the entire marketing scheme successful. Speaker for Bureau Predicts Big Things Pallas. Or.. Feb. 26.-W. J.
