It -will bo onn of tho most Important of ltd kind over held In tlio Interest of advancing agrlculluro to thn namo flimnclal bail an manufactur ing and mining. Representative of varlouii farm organization, elovntor and grain dealers, Imuranco companion nnd other association Interested hnv been Invited to attend. ' Tho proposal I to provide a meth od by which tho farmer may be gives unlimited ntorage fa cilities for hli grain and receive a warehouse certificate In audi form and under tuch condition!. t,bt It would pas im an order for de livery of tho grain. Aim Am Many It would thus greatly Increase hi borrowing power and would relievo him of the pressure of idling his grain except at hi own option. It would enablo him to haul hi grain at thn time of thn groatcit farm economy without being compelled to o11 at that tlmo. It would ox tend hi credit nrea fnr boyond hi local bank. It -would plnco him In tho namo position a to crod't n I thn grain dealer. Tho present system of local ele vator nnd warehoused of small capacity, relying upon Immediate dlRpatch to largor capacity termin al elevator, makes It ImposslMo for tho local elevator to gho long ntorago of grain In any .j-Jantlty, Owing to thin nltuntlon.

It tl grnln had moved Into a terminal elovator tho charges for frolght and handling toguthor with accumulated ntorago and Insurance would bo do dnctod from tho salo valuo, C That tho Btorago certificate uhould bo safeguarded by a, method of Insuranco by tho liability com panies. D As there must bo an nbso luto sottlomont between tho country elovator and the farmer as to quan tity, grado and quality, thera must be somo ready method ot appoal In caso of disagreement.
