H. L. Smith and wife of Hood River For the first time in the memory of the present generation were here Sunday the farmers have a marketing organization that is primarily inter ested in the welfare of the growers themselves. It is composed of the growers and the interest is self interest. This action will make it possible for every member of the grain growers to receive 3 cents per bushel more at Wasco, 4.2 cents per bushel more at Moro and 4.8 more per bushel at Grass Valley and Kent than they would have received under the old rate With wheat selling at about 30 cents this is an increase of from ten to fifteen percent all due to cooperative effort and the power that a large organization can wield For years producers have been trying to establish some form of cooperation that will be strong enough to make the farmers a factor in the marketing end of putting their goods in the hands of consumers. Each movement has been more successful than the previous one and it is possible that some day growers and pro ducers will be able to control their own markets, eliminating gam bling in food stuffs and really obtain a profit for themselves. --------0------- ........ HOLD IT f Perhaps a way, or combination of ways, will be found to en able farmers to hold their wheat this year instead of sacrificing it at the price now offered. There has been several encouraging statements from men who are connected with the agencies that hold many of the mor- tages on wheat in this county. The land banks, the Federal Re serve banks, local banks and all other companies who will acquire wheat through the mortgage route this year will derive little bene fit from it if they sell it at the present prices. The wheat would not pay their interest in some cases and would leave- absolutely nothing for the farmer to continue operations with The individual fanner who wishes to hold wheat off the mark et for a better price may borrow on his wheat receipts from the North Pacific Grain Corporation if he is a member of his local co operative. This agency will loan 75 percent of the value of the wheat and will hold th« wheat in the local warehouse where it will not be put into the channels of trade until sold. Jf at all possible some means must be devised to hold wheat from the market until the price advances to a reasonable level. Twenty five and thirty cents per bushel for wheat at country ware houses is barely enough to pay tor the harvesting. Wheat is non- perishable and will not deteriorate in quality if kept for a few months and it most certainly omnokdropjguch in price. Little or nothing can be lost by holding arid It is probable that a reason able price can be obtained. ---- O---- Grass Valley citizens received a CHmpiiWnt on their hospital ity from I. J. W. VanSchaick, foreman of the oiling crew who are temporarily living there. Mr. VanSchaick expressed himself as being particuhrily pleased with the reception the Grass Valleyites gave him and members of the crew. ---- O--- — The argument over the advisability of combining the Universi- ty and the C .Hege may be sidetracked by the argument over who swiped the petitions. And it wouldn’t bestrangeif it did. That’s what often happens when economic problems get into politics. ---- O---- The captain of the Australian Olympic team who left his purse and found it undisturbed an hour later need not feci surprised People quit picking up purses last year. ---- O---- Historians used to trace the fall of Rome to the action of poli ticians who distribu ed corn to the people of the city in exchange f >r vote * ------- o------- Let’s lay the entire blame for the depression on the reds and ease the conscience of those who feel guilty. --------o------- Has anybody heard of the superstit.on about the two dollar bill being unlucky lately? ------- o------- Why not make th- automobile moratorium continue for a year and re ieve the suspense? ------- 0------ 7 The depression must be severe in Texas; Ma Ferguson is aheah again Mr. and Mrs, Henry Roth and Mr. and Mrs. Alva Stone drove to Portland Saturday and took in the ball games of the week end between the Beavers and Hollywood.
