tions and others are being planned.
All sections of the state are being
visited by organizers. who are getting
agriculturalists to join cooperative
organiza lions. This union movement
among the producing classes was the
general topic of conversation yeStcr-
day on South Water street. Chicago.
The formation of the Farmers Co
operative association of Black Creek,

from, was the cause of the discussion.
Following the trend of the times 80
farmers. representing 10000 acres,
combined. These men raise only po-
tatocs. cabbage. onions and squash
and are commonly called truck gar
dencrs. yet they have united in Il
powerful organization. Officers were
elected, including a general manager
and salesman. who will conduct ne
gutiations for the sale of produce t"
