During the morning session of the north west regional agricultural 'confer ence under the auspices of the United States chamber of com merce, the conference stressed the importance of chambers of com merce organizing either through bureaus or committees for work In aid of agriculture. In largo cit ies, tho idea was that the work should be conducted through bu reaus and in small cities through committees, Hankers, merchants, shippers and farmers or men having .direst interest in f firming should have charge of the chamber'agricultur al work and in charge of a bureau there should bo a man specially trained ror tne position. Opinion of delegates was uuan imous that business organizations should work closely with the state agricultural college, the United States department of ag riculture, local and state farmers organizations and county farm agents in aiding the farmer to place himself on a substantial ba sis. Above all else, it was empha sized, that the membership of chamber of commerce should be absolutely In sympathy with farm welfare.
