State Market Agent Seymour Joneg sends out the following regard ing an effort under way to defeat the farmers' co-operatlv marketing plan. Much money' to be spent to en able middle men to continue gouging groweru and to curtail their efforts. Mr. Jones' story follows: "A very powerful organization has been formed for the purpose of fighting co-operative marketing acti vity. The organization has been named the Federal Agricultural Traders of America, and embraces the various combinations that are handling products as middle-men, price fixers and profit takers in all lines, and also includes banking and manufacturing institutions. ThL; new federation claims that co-operative marketing by the agricultural claes means a heavy loss to ita members and is wrong from an eco nomic standpoint, and that it would be profitable to LpenJ a million dollars now to combat the advance of the co-operative principle. This effort of the market-controlling agencies to keep agricultural pro ducers from securing profits to them selves will pobably arouse the farmer.) to still greater efforts for organiza tion and the fight will be a bitter one. The farmers can win if they stick together." SHIP BY TRU REGULAR FREIGHT LINE SERVICE Between PORTLAND - THE DALLES - MAUPIN THE DALLES TRUCK LINE Inc.

Just what the idea a we have not learned, but it appears to us that that work is unnecessary in view of the fact that thore stones have been lying in their bi'd for a number of years and ranch rs living up that way become so well asquainted with each indi vidual one that they unconsciously steer out from them when going up or coming down the grade.

There can not be found a better man for the job then our worthy townsman and if he f ilea for the office there will be none to oppose him.
