many farmers had been led to believe
that Durango was robbing them

eastern portion of the county as
against San Luis valley with present
prices, although the farmers in the
eastern part of the county was de-
pendent on La Plata county mills to
dispose of their wheat
The general tone of the meeting
was that, while a cooperative mill
would be good thing. the farmers
should not be misled and made to be-
lieve they will realize much more than
they are at present The opinion pre-
vailed that with a cooperative mill 1t
might be possible to inculcate spirit
OF patriotism into the people Of this
southwest section whereby they would
use the home product. and by doing
so the wheat acreage could be dou-
bled; that mill of this character
would not in the least interfere with
those already established, although it
was privately expressed by most ev-
eryone that efforts should be made to
secure the min operated through the
agency OF the Colorado State bank.
Mr.. Graden said he had not the
slightest objection to the building of a
cooperative mill, that anything that
would benefit the farmers would ben

building up of the southwest section,
Owing to inability to place In type

be IL resolved That the board o
trade believe, from the remarks ex
pressed by the various attending
members. that cooperative milling
would be advantageous to this com
munity In general
The above Is the resolution adopted
by the board of trade at its meeting
Monday evening. The adoption o
the resolution followed a discussion
of the proposition by a number OF
gentlemen. In addition to a majority
of the directors, there were presen,
j. W. Sites. ]. P. Lowell, W. T. Dar
lington, DIR, McEwen. I. G. Graden
L. c. Jakway, George Allen of Farm
ington, Robert McNicholas, /. Krus-
cbke and few others.
In the first place, Mr. McNicholas
presented the proposition of the co
operative mill and there was gener.
al discussion among all those pres
ent, but the real facts were brought
out through series of questions and
the farmers would receive a much bet
Ter price for their wheat and that an
increased acreage would result.
Mr.. Sites favored the proposition
but was conservative in his remarks,
stating that ii would cause a better
feeling among the farmers.
Mr.. Graden gave an extended state
ment OF present conditions He gave
the experience of the San Juan -four
mills and added that he figured at least
onehalf of the -four consumed in La
Plata county and this southwest sec
,tion was shipped in from San Luis
valley and Denver. This was be.
cause flour sold for the same and he
said II had often happened that farm
ers had brought wheat to town and
sold it ut the mills and then went TO
the stores and took home a few hun
dred pounds OF San Luis valley -four,
and that unless the people OF the
county united in patronizing home
mills conditions would not be im-
proved
In answer to a question Mr. Graden
said IL was estimated by some that
three-tfths of the flour consumed was
shipped in. He said his firm had al
ways paid from 20 TO 40 cents per 100
lbs. more for wheat than the farmers
of the San Luis valley received. this
being the difference in freight rates.
III -four from the local mills was man
ufactured and sold for less money
than the outside product then 1t would
be necessary to cut the price paid
farmers. and that with flour selling for
the same money some means would
have TO be used to get the people TO
using the home product.
Mr.. McNicholas. in answer to the
statement that the farmers we're ex-
pecting to receive 20 per cent more
for their wheat with cooperative
mill than they are now receiving, said
expected to pay the farmer 20 per
cent more This statement was moi
accepted as at all probable. because
it is well known that il will be an i'm
possibility to do this and the genera
opinion was that farmers should moi
be misIed.

very interesting review of cooper
ative mills in other parts Of the state
