A TOBACCO GROWERS TRUST.

DR.. Freeman Outlines a Plan for the
= Consideration of the Tobacco Conven-
ton to be Held this Month.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
In view of the fact that there is
to be a tobacco growers meeting
some time in next month in Raleigh
Tor Rocky Mount, I have written
few suggestions which I hope you
will publish at once, that a discus
sion may be had and that much good
may come of it. No use to meet
and resolute, but meet and do some
thing. This plan should put every
farmer into the tobacco trust (and
cotton, too,. as to that), and plenty
of money into the treasury to make
things go, and no one ever miss it.
/ believe, by an iron-clad organiza-
tion of this kind, the farmers can
be held together and prices of our
tobacco and other raw material con-
trolled. Thus we will be able to
make terms with the money trust.
AT our hts should be well paid,
and the best men put in the field. I
hope to go to the meeting in Ra-
leigh if I can find out when it is. I
don't see any notice of it in The
Farmer. 81. F. F.

The Oleo Fraud Dies Hard.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

Editor Of The Progressive Farmer:
The prediction at Washington is
that the government will have the
greatest fight on its hands in the
history of the present generation by
its attempts to enforce the oleomar-
garine law. The oleo makers are
using every endeavor to outwit the
law and its intention. The law
states nothing about the use of col
ored butter in the composition of
oleo-in fact, butter is generally
used-and the oleomargarine makers
are now attempting to use colored
butter, having a very high content
of artificial coloring matter, in the
composition of their product. The
Treasury Department, however, has
set a standard of the amount of
coloring matter generally used in
butter; and if the oleo contains more
than this amount, it holds the mix
ture to be liable to the ten-cents-a-
pound tax. M.
