To paIrxmen.

Thinking that perhaps many may not
be acquainted with the rules of our asso-
citation, and that they may not have been
informed of the sly methods which the
dealers are working with the idea of
weak ening the association, | feel it my
duty to inform them through the public
press
| have seen letters written by men who
are not only enemies to the members of
the association, but who have always
been enemies to all milk shippers, and
who are doing all in their power to the
detriment of the association, thinking to
demoralize us so that Gas have been in
formed by some of the dealers who are
friendly to u.s. they could break the as
ISOLATION and then be able to handle all
shippers as they desire. The deceltful
methods they use for that purpose are
calculated to lead those who are not well
informed astray; consequently, as an Off
Ger of the association, it is my duty to in
form you of their sly dodge and the PEN
atty for selling below the price set by our
association.
Our bylaws make every member who
sells below the price set by the associa-
ton liable to fine of $25 for each offense.
The dealers who are fighting the asso-
citation are sending letters to all their
shippers that they expected to pay A
cents, but the association had set the
price at 81 cents consequently they were
Obliged to sell for 6, therefore could not
pay but cents, but would not ask to
have any milk held back for the month of
June
Now let me explain why they send out
such letters. | have been informed by
an honest dealer who buys of and IS
friendly toward and has been benefited
by our association and buys his milk Of
the agent, that the idea of those large
dealers who have been making fortunes
of the small dealers and farmers was to
flood the market during the month of
May so as to make our assessments so
high that our members would become
discouraged and leave the association,
which would break 1t up and give them
the power to handle us as they desire,
which is to put the price below the cost Of
production.
A portion Of their letters is correct, /. e.
