Officers of Producers Union
Admit Many Have Signed
New Milk Contracts
TAKE STOCK IN NEW AGENCY

The Kenosha county members of the
Milk Producers Union seem to have
practically given up the fight against
the big companies and this morning
Patrick Tobin of Pleasant Prairie who
has been active in the organization,
stated that he had been advised that
a large proportion of the milk shippers
in this territory had signed the con-
tracts and that the producers union
would hold no meetings at the various
platforms in Kenosha county on Tues
day At that time plans have been
made 80 hold meetings at many of the
platforms and bottling plants but Ke-
nosha county will be overlooked. Mr..
Tobin stated that the increase in prices
offered by the companies appealed
greatly to the shippers in Kenosha
county and that many of them were
pretty well satisfied with the amounts
that will be paid for milk during the
summer season.
Mr.. Tobin insists, however, that the
Kenosha county producers are not los
ing faith in the union and that they
are still working in the ranks. In
Chicago on Saturday the new central
agency of the Milk Producers Union
was incorporated and the Kenosha
county members took more than a
thousand dollars Of the $4,000 stock
in the agency. 1t is expected that
these stockholders in the central agency
will, do lot of missionary work in
this county and that they will aid ma.
terially in getting up more enthusiasm
for the union before the time comes
for the signing Of the winter contracts
It is claimed that Kenosha county has
been favored by the big concerns with
a view of having these shippers in line
when the big fight comes.
There have been no steps taken for
the erection of independent bott1ing
plants in this county with the excep-
ton of at Bassett s Station where
some Of the men who have declined to
sign contracts as yet have taken over
an old school building with the plan
of converting it into bottling plant
if the conditions warrant it.
