FARM BUREAU NEWS.
The annual Farm Bureau meeting
was held at the Court House in O’Neill
Friday afternoon and the court room
was filled with farmers from different
parts of the county. It was the best
annual meeting ever held in the
county. The following officers and
directors were elected for the coming
year: President, A. F. Sauer, Vice
President, Jacob Hirsch, Secretary,
Ray Martin, Treasurer, I. R. Harding,
Directors: T. J. Donohoe, H. A. Trow
bridge and Sam Hickman. N. W.
Gaines was the speaker of the day and
gave a good explanation of the state
and National Farm Bureau Federa
tion. At the close of the meeting a
motion was made that the County
Farm Bureau board be instructed to
contract with the State Federation to
put on the membership drive in the
county. The vote was nearly all for
the membership only one voting
against it. 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. They ap
prove the provisions of the Federal
Farm Loan Act for the making of
farm loans through the Federal Land
Banks under a co-operative plan to
actual farmers for agricultural pur
poses. They demand an amendment
to the Federal Farm Loan Act in
creasing the loan limit to $25,000.
They denounce as \un-American- the
principle and are opposed to guaran
teeing a fixed return to public utilities
and railroads on a cost plus basis.
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.

When Sleet Storms Come |
When a sleet storm is repo * on the way,
telephone repairmen get busy.
Often before the storm has reached the place of
threatened attack, lihemen with emergency material
are on the ground.
Every year thousands of dollars of damage is
done to telephone property along country roads by
wind and storms.
Sleet and lightning are the telephone man’s R
| worst enemies. Lightning hits only here and there, t-j
but often sleet breaks down miles and miles of poles

Give her a Hoover and you give her a life time of pride in an
immaculate home. You give her an electric carpet beater that
flutters out all injurious embedded grit, an electric carpet
sweeper that brightens colors, straightens nap and collects all
stubborn, clinging litter; and an electric suction cleaner that re
moves surface dirt. Only The Hoover combines these three essen
tial devices in one, and it is the largest selling electric cleaner
in the world.
