benefit Sb far the plan hasn't worked Best Informed observers esti mate that less than 5000 farmer are as yet taking any part in the movement This is scarce ly more than 3 per cent of the farmers of

hogs "were slightly "lower and eggs remained the same LONG PULL AHEAD And if the price for farm products desired by the farm hol iday backers ever is attained there is a long pull ahead The scale of prices adopted by the Holiday association as cost of production are as fol lows: Corn 92 cents wheat $136 and oats 49 cents a bushel hogs $1125 and fat cattle $1040 a hun dred butterfat 62 cents a pound and eggs 35 cents a dozen Present prices are far' below the figures set by the farmers as their cost of production most of the prices named them being far above the average of the last 10 years In the meantime is being maintained on a number of western Iowa highways and truck ers and farmers not in sympathy with the movement are being in duced to leave their produce on the farm for the time being Many of them are seeking other mar kets although some demands have been "made on small town mer chants to discontinue the purchase of perishable produce How long the picketing will con tinue is
