EXCHANGE FOR UNION FARMERS Important Plan Adopted
 by County Union. FARMERS MET AT DUBLIN Decided to Bund an Exchange at West End.
 The Plan ccnfempIafes an Exehanse which VIII Facilitate the Mar
 ketins of All Classes of Farm
 Products Without Sacrifice.
 
FARMERS MET AT DUBLIN

A Farmers Exchange to facilitate the marketing of the farm products of members of the Farmers Union was determined upon at a meeting of the Montgomery County Farmers Union held yesterday at Dublin in the lower part of the county. The County Union. after explanations and discussion of the plan. committed itself to the prop osition of purchasing a site and erect ing the building in West End.
 The adoption of this plan was the most important feature of the day s work of the Union at Dublin. As 1t was the County Union had very busy day of it, but the important plan for the better marketing of farm products had the larger part of the days ousi- ness.
 At the proposed Farmers Exchange there will be a store house, ware house and wagon yard. It Will De designed to keep and to handle all products of the farm. When the Ex- change ia in operation the farmer will not be forced to sacrifice hts produce, whether it is or is not perishable. He will not be forced to take the market as he finds and have to sell whether prices are or are not satisfactory.
 @The Exchange will, for instance. as- sist In the sale of cattle," said Presi- dent Charles l.. Gay, last night, after his return from Dublin. Suppose man came to Montgomery with ten head of cattle to sell and found the market in such a state that he would have to sacrifice his stock. With the Farmers Exchange in operation he could have the cattle fed and kCpt un- til the market was more satisfactory. He may bring in wagon load Of poe tatoes and find the market so unsatis- factory that he will not sell The Ex- change can keep his potatoes and put them on the market at the proper time. The same is true of hay, corn or any other farm product. As a matter of fact a number of contemplating Mont gomery County farmers have each year a lot of corn to sell. Too often they cannot find satisfactory market for it. The Exchange in serving its pur- pose will dispose of this corn to the best advantage.
 fThe establishment of such an ex- change will greatly assist the move- ment for rotation and diversidcation of crops in Montgomery County"
 The cost of the proposed plant is not known at this time. 4 committee will look Into this and adopt the definite plans.s Then a stock company will be formed and after the stock Is sub scribed the exchange will be built President Gay will have an active part in this work.
 The Montgomery County Union was entertained yesterday by the Dublin local. There are in Montgomery Coun. ty six locals of the Farmers Union At the meeting yesterday each local had representation.
