Jensen of Utah county was then called to the secretarys desk and the deliberations were proceeded with Ileber liciinlon of Taylorsvllle opened the discussion urging the necessity for a society such as that outlined by the chair as the best means for overcoming over-coming evils that asserted themselves and most of which may be overcome by patriotic and Intelligent legislation The organization must have a general name however as those who were eligible to membership would not pay for the maintenance of the society unless un-less It was made plain to them that It embraced all the Interests relating to farm life 4 E S Lovesy representing the tfee keepers stated that his association recognized the importance of cooperation coopera-tion that the evils now In the way of prosperity may be wiped out and predicted pre-dicted that the amalgamation would soon become so formidable that agencies agen-cies now antagonistic with the farming Industry must succumb For years the various societies growing out of the various branches of farm life had la bored to overcome these evils without tangible result and It was now time to LiIng them together as a unit and as a unit work for the ends In view IRRIGATION COMMISSION OUT Prof Mills vacating the chair said he represented an institution the Agricultural Ag-ricultural College through which much hm < iiiuuu > nuu ueuu uxpunueu to promote the Interests Involved in farming and that K was apparent to him that the Irrigation Commission which had been appointed intended to supplant It on an assumption that what had been done In behalf of the farmer had bcxn done through It and what Is to be accomplished ac-complished in the future must be through it lie had called on the commission com-mission a few days ago and remonstrated remon-strated against such conduct If it desired de-sired to cooperate with the college he was willing that should be but when the suggestion was made the commission commis-sion had informed him that If the tig rlcultural societies and the Agricultural Agricul-tural College desired to Join with the society on irrigation they could do so by paying the usual initiation fee Wherever In the speakers opinion the Irrigation enterprises that controlled the society scored a point the farmer lost one and he was unqualifiedly opposed op-posed to its admission to the State society so-ciety The Agricultural College he contended was the natural avertue through which to continue the attack upon evils that threatened the farmer and It this was not recognized after what hud been accomplished with the aid of the farmer then the college had better be abolished FARMERS WITH TIlE COLLEGE Delegate Austin believed the farmers of the Territory would concur In all that had been said and done In the meeting and would refuse to amulga mate with the Irrigation society which was not in sympathy with the plain practical methods of the farmer N D Jensen stated that he had called on the secretary of the Irrigation Commission Com-mission to ascertain what had been done but the latter had turned the query and wanted to know what the farmer was going to do and then called attention to a scheme for holding a convention on the eve of the meeting of the Legislature to lay plans for legislation The legislation advocated by the Irrigation people thought the speaker would to too much In their favor and not enough In favor of the farmer and he advocated that a rival convention be held the same day for the farmers to express their wants DETERMINE TO ORGANIZE After further discussion a motion by Mr Lovesy to organize prevailed and a constitution and bylaws were adopted As defined In the constitution the object of the society Is to promote and encourage the development of the agricultural resources of Utah promote pro-mote trade by producing a better and more uniform article In larger quantities quanti-ties and to promote the social Interests of the agriculturists of Utah Any agriculturist
