THE NEW FARM BUREAT
(From Farm Burcnu Now..)
Since the last issue of this publica
tion wns written, one year ago, (no
paper having been edited during the
past year) great changes have been
wrought in all Farm Bureau work
from the county to the National. A
year ago, Nebraska's State organiza
tion was on paper only. Tuuay she.
has a paid membership of 17,000 in
who are least able to pay them. At
the outset, Mr. McKcnzic was practi
cally the only man to oppose this
menstue. It is understood that h"
has not only changed their views on
tin' consumer's tax, but it Is thought
very possible that he has succeeded
in killing the NoImi land bill so that
it will not come up again before Con
gress. This, howe.er, is largely
speculation. This bill, as is gM.er
ally known, purposes to levy a one
percent tax on all real estate after

izing the magnitude of the work to
be undertaken no promises
made,
farme
we feel that we have a record ot
which to be proud. The National
Federation has but recently held its
first annual meeting. Speaking of
their achievements at this meeting,
Pres. J. R. Howard said, "The reai
outstanding work of the year hn.t
been the confidence, and I use the
wofd 'confidence after careful
thought, which we have succeeded in
winning from the general interest of
America." This is a wonderful ac
complishment without which great
things cannot be done.
Then there is no question but that
Clifford Thorne, who is transportation
attorney for the National Federation,
was largely instrumental in squeez
ing sufficient watered stock out
of the asked for valuation by the
railroads when they were seeking a
G guarantee on investments.to make
a saving to farmers of .$100,000,001).
Mr. Thorne was the only man present
who asked for so large a reduction.
Another great transportation prnb
lem solved by the Federation was the
equalizing of freight rates from Chi
cago to the sea-board. Before this,
a discriminatory rate was charged
from Chicago to Albany, by which
the boats on the lake were unable to
run. As soon as Mr. Howard, and
his colleagues, showed the commis
sion the injustice that was being
wrought; and how badly farmers
needed the cars which could be re
leased through the use of ocean go
ing vessels on this last leg in trans
portation, they at onco granted the
request. Wooden boats, which all
during the war had been idle, were
put in shape for transporting grain.
as a result, thousands ol grain cais
were at once released for the west.
What will likely be realized as one
of the biggest things Is the woik be
ing done by Mr. McKenzie of New
Yoik, who represents the -rVderation
on the National Industrial board.
This is a powerful organization lcp
rescnting big eastern interests.

Since the campaign, community or
ganizations have been formed in all
but two precincts of the county. In
these organlzati.ls, the agricultural
interests of the community is care
fully ttudiea with a view of correct
ing the difficulties. After setting
a goal for the year's work, a leader
is named. Included in these agri
cultural interests are legislative af
fairs. A leader is found who will
call the people together to discuss
agricultural bills and take a referen
dum vote. In this way every farmer
in every corner ot the county can
cause his voice, through his vote, to
be heard in both the legislature of
the state and the congress of the
nation.
We must consider our present sit
uation as we would a chronic disease
effecting our body. It is likely to
take a long time to find all of the
causes and sun longer lo correct
them. We must piny the game fair

gained by doing ftherwise, as we ate

cess. But one thing we must do, it'
