THE HOPE PIONEER FARM GROUPS BALK AT PLANS Co-operative Oppose Mergers That Would Wipe Out Their Identities. Chicago--Members of the committee detailed to organize tle farmers' national grain corporation at the behest of the federal farm board struggled between two plans and were reported to 1 be far from an agreement. Co-operatives, it was understood, strenuously opposed a tentative plan proposed by the United States department of agriculture because it would result in loss of identity to the standard farm marketing groups, which would be merged into the gigantic new corporation. Another plan, designated by the farmers' union terminal association, and favored by the co-operatives, would make the grain corporation a holding company with the already organized marketing groups buying the stock in their own names. It was said this plan has received no encouragement from members of the farm board.

M. W. Thatcher of St. Paul, one of the leaders in the movement to retain identity for the marketing groups, announced he is authorized by the Union Terminal association to purchase 000,000 worth of stock in the proposed corporation the organization set-up meets with his approval.

German dirigible Graf Zeppelin completed its triumphant three weeks' swoop around the world here and imemdiately preparations were begun for a take-off for her home port across the Atlantic. It will be the Graf's fifth crossing of the Atlantic and for the first time on a major, flight she will not be under the control of her veteran commander, Dr. Hugo Eckener.

On completion of the first air ship girdling of the globe and the fastest circumnavigation by any means of transportation, Dr. Eckener announced that he would start in about twelve days and would follow his dirigible home to Friedrichhafen by steamer and train. Twenty-one days ago the Graf Zeppelin left Lakehurst for its homeport in Germany, imemdiately thereafter making a trans-European and Asiatic trip by way of European Russia and Siberia to Japan. The Graf piloted by Dr. Hugo Eckener completed its third leg of the first round the world flight of a lighter than air ship.

The veteran skipper brought the huge air-liner safely from Tokio over the broad expanse of the Pacific to Los Angeles in a three and one-quarter day non-stop flight from Japan to the Los Angeles airport. This is the greatest achievement of man, in long distance flying, and in the speed with which Dr. Hugo Eckener accomplished it in one-third time cf Pacific Ocean steamers, after battling, terrific storms and dense fogs.

Seven members of the crew which came 16,880 miles with the history making voyage were detached and ordered to proceed to Lakehurst by airplane in order to lighten the load where they rejoined the giant craft for its hop to Europe.

The passengers showed considerably the strain of the long flight which began here August 8.

GRAVE SEED GRAIN SITUATION EXISTS Supply Inadequate, Farmers Should Plan Needs Now, Says Sumner A grave seed grain situation exists In the northwest, according to H. R. Sumner of Minneapolis, secretary of the Northwest Crop Improvement association, who has just completed a survey of the seed fields in North Dakota, Montana, South Dakota, and Minnesota.

The problem confronting all those Interested in crops of better quality lies in the fact that so many growers of pure seed are inclined to sell their crop on the open market rather than hold it over until the normal demand for good seed next spring, Mr. Sumner said. Discriminating farmers, elevator managers and business men should locate their seed supply immediately, suggests Mr. Sumner. The supply of pure seed is greater than it was last year although it is still inadequate to meet the needs of the northwest.

Those who wish to obtain carload lots of pure seed should contract for their needs now for if they wait until next spring they will find much of the purest seed to have been marketed, he "In my four weeks inspection trip," says Mr. Sumner, "I was surprised to find so many men with the impression that it is necessary to go to Canada for pure seed stock. That may have been the case several years ago, but it is not the situation at present. "The Northwest Crop Improvement association will be glad to write those who are interested in finding good, pure seed. We do not have seed to sell, but our organization is concerned in placing interested buyers in touch with pure seed growers.

Mixed grain is wasteful for all concerned and pure seed is one step in eliminating such a loss." CLOSED BANK PAYS.
