JA MESSAGE
ADVANCE DISCUSSION ON OAAA
WILL BE HELD AT IRRIGON
An advance discussion of a sched-
uled meeting of all administrators,
managers and members of the con-
trol boards operating under market
ing agreements pursuant to the Ore
gon Agricultural Adjustment Act,
will be held at the Irrigon school
house at 8:00 o’clock, Saturday, No
vember 24.
The Portland meeting has been
scheduled for Friday, the last day of
November, 1934, at 10:00 a. m., in
the assembly room on the seventh
floor of the Oregon building, Fifth
and Oak streets.
The discussion at Irrigon will take
stock of what has been accomplished
and determine whether or not the
OAAA should be continued. Also
what modifications and amendments,
if any, should be secured.
"The importance of t hese mat-
ters for the next two years in mar-
keting," Max Gehlhar, director,
says, “I believe, , justifies a 100 per
cent attendance in all districts and
at the Portland meeting.”
R. V. Jones, a board of controol
member from this district, will take
the reports from this meeting to the
Portland headquarters, which will
assist in future administration.
SUGGESTIONS MADE FOR
NATIONAL GRANGE ACTION
HARTFORD, Conn., Nov. 15.—
Numerous suggestions for furthering
the work of the grange, among them
the extension of cooperatives to new
fields, were offered today by agri
cultural leaders at a lecturers’ con-
ference held in connection with the
National Grange convention.
Ervin C. King, master of the
Washington state grange, urged be-
fore the lecturers’ conference that
greater use be made of the coopera
tive plan. He pointed out that in his
state, 7,000,000 gallons of gasoline
were sold last year through 42 cou-
operative stations and that the
grange is operating a power manu-
facturing company.
King laid down twelve "com-
mandments” for the successful oper-
ation of cooperatives, among them:
Sell at competitive prices only.
Do not cut prices.
Stock only staple goods required
by members.
Select competent managers.
Pay managers reasonable salary.
Give the business your hearty
cooperation.
Cooperate with other recognized
cooperative organizations.
Louis J. Taber, national master,
outlined various activities through
which officers of the grange might
further Its work and said: "Above
all, keep grange ideals high."
FARM COOPERATIVES IN THE
OIL BUSINESS GROWING.
Mushrooming their way into the
nation’s wealth stream are hundreds
of fast-growing farmers’ oil coopera-
fives doing an annual business of
millions of dollars.
Describing this, one of the out-
standing developments in the farmer
cooperative movement in recent
years, the Cooperative Division of
the Farm Credit Administration re-
veals some significant figures on the
volume of business done by these as-
sociations.
In the survey of the cooperatives
in 18 states, chiefly in the Middle
West, the FAC states 93 of the as-
sociations reported a volume of bus
year
iness in excess of $50,000
each, a total of $11,708,360. The
remaining 100 associations doing a
business of less than $50,000 a year
each, reported a total of $2,811,570.
Largest reporting company was the
Cooperative Union Oil Company of
North Kansas City, Mo., which to
taled $1,493.843 for the year.
The FAC states that nearly all co
operative associations sell at compe
titive prices, and patronage divi
dends are distributed at reasonable
and normal intervals.—Grange Bul
letin.
DISTINGUISHED FEATURES OF
THE COOPERATIVE SYSTEM.
“The distinguishing features of
the co-operative system Is that It
exists for the common good. All
land, buildings or goods acquired
become the common property of all
the members Every economy in dis
tribution or manufacture and every
advance in efficiency made within
the society, benefits every member
of it. instead of going to swell the
profita of some one person.”—San

TAX AFFECTS FARMERS.
Effective November 1. 1934, new
regulations issued by the Secretary
of Agriculture under the Agricultu-
ral Adjustment Act. provide that
hog producers and feeders will only
be required to pay processing taxes
on hogs slaughtered by them and
sold direct to consumers. In
other cases, the tax will be paid by
the first person, other than the hog
producer or feeder, who performs
any operation in the receiving,
handling or other distribution of the
product. This means if any retail
er, wholesaler, commission mer
chant, meat market, restaurant, ho
tel. club, hospital or other commer
cial establishment receives, buys or
exchanges any dressed hogs or parts
from a hog producer or feeder, the
first domestic processing is held to
be the initial act performed by such
persons In handling or preparation
for further distribution or use. Pre
paration for further distribution or
use includes any operation connect
ed with receiving, storing, cutting,
rendering, etc.
This change affects only hogs
slaughtered by farmers on and after
November 1, 1934. Meat packing
companies, slaughterhouses, custom
killers and all other commercial es
tablishments will continue to pay
the processing tax as formerly on
the live weight of hogs at the timo
of slaughter.
All
commercial establishments
will be required to maintain a rec
ord of all pork products handled by
them to show whether they are sub
ject to the tax or whether it has al
ready been paid by some prior pro
cessor or distributor. Packers and
others selling to jobbers, retailers.

invoices a statement certifying that 1
