Digester Tankage is 60% animal 
protein. Mix with grain or feed 
separately in hoppers or slops. 
Gives better results than grain 
alone; saves one-third cost. Tankage-fed 
hogs show more pounds when marketed—and 
more profit per pound. Experience proves it.'

Many Resolutions Passed 
The important resolutions follow: 
A MARKETING PROGRAM 
Whereas, more than half the farm prob¬ 
lems of to-day concern marketing, the methods 
of marketing New York farm products are in 
a process of evolution, a part of our farmers are 
endeavoring to apply here the cooperative 
method of marketing that has proved efficient 
and successful in other States and in other 
counties. It is extremely important that ample 
time and fair opportunity be given for these at¬ 
tempts. It would be calamitous if even one of 
the State-wide cooperatives should collapse 
The whole movement might be set back a 
generation. 
To safeguard the situation, Be It Resolved, 
that 
1. A systematic continuing program of edu¬ 
cation for farmers on the fundamentals of real 
cooperation, and 
2. A similar educational program for the 
general public, especially the business inter¬ 
ests, be instituted through a paid leader sup¬ 
ported by nil interested agencies. 
A T B POLICY 
Resolved, that the present Bovine Tubercu¬ 
losis Committee be made a permanent- commit¬ 
tee whose personnel may be changed from 
time to time as circumstances may require 
and that we request the continued endorse¬ 
ment of this committee by the Agricultural 
Conference Board in order that , this commit¬ 
tee may have authority to be the official head 
and have in charge the general management 
on behalf of the farm organizations of the 
work of Bovine Tuberculosis Eradication in 
the State. 
Be It Further Resolved, that we request the 
Farm Bureaus of all counties doing Bovine 
Tuberculosis Eradication work that they shall 
appoint a committee who shall report to this 
committee from time to time regarding the 
progress and development of the work in their 
respective counties. 
FOR A HORTICULTURAL BUILDING 
Whereas, the buildings used at the State 
b air to house Farm Produce, Fruit and Coun¬ 
ty Farm and Home Bureau exhibits are abso¬ 
lutely unfit in every way for exhibit purposes 
of this kind, and 
Whereas, it ; was planned to build a Horti¬ 
cultural Building for 1923 exhibits, and 
j. Whereas, the Coliseum was built for the 
National Dairy Show instead. 
Be It Further Resolved, that we the mem¬ 
bers of the State Farm Bureau Federation at its 
annual meeting held at Syracuse on the 20th 
and 21st day of November, 1923, do hereby 
ask the State Legislature to provide sufficient 
funds and erect a Horticultural Building for 
1924. 
It Is Also Resolved, that the president of 
the State Farm Bureau Federation appoint a 
committee to meet with other State organiza¬ 
tions for the cooperative work necessary for 
the planning of such a building. 
WARNING AGAINST IMPORTED CLOVER 
• Whereas, there is danger of the farmers of 
this State suffering a serious loss by the pur¬ 
chase of imported clover seed 
Be It Resolved, that the N. Y. State Col- 
u ge rr 0f o Agrieulture be requested to join with 
the U. S Department of Agriculture and other 
State colleges in vigorously warning our 
farmers of the danger of loss by using im¬ 
ported clover seed. 
EXTEND INSPECTION OF PERISHABLES 
Whereas, shipping-point inspection of a few 
perishables has been made possible in a limited 
way in this State, 
Whereas, this service has proven of excep¬ 
tional value to the shippers in protection 
against unjustified rejections at destination, in 
developing and maintaining standards ’ of 
grades among the producers and in providing 
a true basis upon which satisfactory business 
ethics may be safely built, 
Resolved, that the State Legislature be 
asked to appropriate such funds as are, In the
