This wll connect the Holt County Farm Bureau with the State and National Bureau which has over a million and one-half members at the present time. The following is part of the program of the National Farm Bureau Federation as adopted at the convention last week in Indiana. It endorses the work being done by the Farmers Marketing committee of Seventeen and approve the demand which they have made that the grain exchanges be opened to cooperative commission companies, and demand a similar privilege for the livestock co operative commission companies from the livestock exchanges.

Action was taken on several other bills beefore congress and a referendrum j vote of all Farm Bureau members in the country .will be taken in the near future on all bills. Watch your local papers in the near future for informa tion concerning the drive to be put on in the county. County Agent Frank Lancaster was re-elected for the ensuing year. FINDING HIMSELF. Boston Transcript: The other day when the beach was crowded, a small boy, lookng rather bewildered, ap proached a police officer and said: “Please, sir, have you seen anything of a lady around here?” “Why, yes,” answered the officer, “I’ve seen several.” “Well, have you seen any without a little boy?” “Yes?” “Well,” said the little chap as a re lieved look crossed his face. “I’m the little boy. Where’s the lady?” ISN’T THIS TRUE? No one likes to hunt all over r the house or office for his val i uable papers. Usually they are not wanted for months at a stretch and \ then they are wanted badly. If you have a fire you must produce your policy, where is it? When does it expire? . If you have one or our safety deposit boxes you will find much satisfaction in looking over your private papers often.
