Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Country Life Commission: And Special Message From the President of the United States In printing for free distribution the report of the Country Life Commission appointed by President Roosevelt, the Spokane Chamber of Commerce desires to meet a wide-spread demand for the document, which is not available through government channels. The request for the publication of the report came in the following resolution from the Country Life Convention, which met in Spokane on November 18, 1909, when the Western States were largely represented by farmers and orchardists attending the Second National Apple Show: "Resolved, That this convention urges the Spokane Chamber of Commerce to secure the approval of President Taft in the publication of the report of the Country Life Commission." In accordance with the resolutions the appended telegram was sent to President Taft: "By unanimous request of largely attended meeting on Country Life held today at the Second National Apple Show the Spokane Chamber of Commerce consented to print for free distribution, the report of the Country Life Commission appointed by Mr. Roosevelt. Are there any objections?" Ired E. Carpenter, Secretary to President Taft, replied as follows: "Telegram received. The President has not the slightest objection to the free distribution of the report of the Country Life Commission, appointed by Mr. Roosevelt. He thinks it would be an excellent thing for the Spokane Chamber of Commerce to do." Continuing its work in fostering and encouraging the agricultural development of the country, the Spokane Chamber of Commerce publishes the Commission's report, which has been endorsed by the Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations. Members of Congress have received urgent calls for the report, but were unable to supply it, as only a few copies were printed as a Senate document for the use of the legislators while considering the subject.
