WAR on BUTTERINE.
Farmers and Dairy men of the Middle
West Organise.

CHICAGO, June IA special to the
Times Herald from Fort Atkinson. Wis.
says: "Butterine must be legisated out
of use" is the dictum of the National
Dairy Union. The successful hight for the
new anti-butterine law in Illinois has in
spired the aairymen of the West TO crush
the butter substitute industry. They are
going into politics to do it,
Right now the creamery proprietors. the
butter dealers and the dairy farmers OF
the big butter-producing states-Wiscon-
sin, Illinois, Indiana. Iowa Minnesota.
Nebraska. Kansas. Michigan and the Da.
kotas-are being drawn into the fight.
". - Hoard. Of this city. former governor
OF Wisconsin and president of the Ma
tional Dairy Union, is giving the move
ment all the benefit OF his organizing ahil-
ity. Charles V. knight. OF Chicago. score
tary of the National Dairy Union and
manager of the anu-butterine fight in the
Illinois legislature. is secretary and treas
urer OF the new movement.
The National Dairy Union has nearly
400 creameries in the North Mississippi
valley. and around these the union is
building up it's lighting organization. Each
creamery has on an average 100 patrons.
or 400 90 in all. The price paid by the
creameries to the farmers for their milk
IS regulated by the price of butter. As he
absence of competition with hutteriae
raises the price of milk. 1t is expected the
400 900 farmers will rally against the butter
substitute. The farmers who work upon
their milk in their own diaries outnumber
those who sell to creameries. They are
expected to take an interest in this move
ment. The same view is held by the farm
ers who ship milk 10 the cities, their
product being Influenced always by the
price it brings at the creameries. Then
there are the creamery operators and their
employees and the men who handle butter
in the big cities. the commission men. All
these are interested in one another and in
boosting butter and killing butterine. This
indicates why the active spirits OF the Ma
tional Dairy Union are figuring on poit-
ical army of ] 900 coo men or more. The
cTeameries are doing the enlisting.
Every such institution through the but
reproducing states of the West is being
supplied with enrolment blanks TO be
signed by their farmer patrons. These
pledge themselves. as indicated to work
for anti-butterine legislation and to fight
