time to me lest forget have deeds fee simple their
farms and the tobacco of Kentucky neither
nor less than tenants of the Trust monopoly.
We have than heard it remarked The
tobacco Kentucky don't deserve legal protection They
could protect themselves by operation
While that last sentence true rightly considered the tobacco
growers Kenucky entitled to the fullest legal protection
whether they fail to cooperate They taxes for
protection the State dgent in the collection of taxes and yet
the State compacenty stands aoof while hievng monopoly
year after year for twelve long years robs and plumbers the tob
acco growers of the State
Cooperation has for the tobacco growers of Kentucky
millions OF dollars and yet is burning shame that the growers
abandoned by the State the devices of cooperation Full
hearty and harmonious has frustrated by
the Vaccinations of the Tobacco monopoly.
CO OPERATIVE MARKETING
The farmer of today must be of brains who is not alone
capable of producing the maximum crop but who has the bust
ness ability to dispose of his products to the best advantage
to obtain the maxim return
The which allows the purchaser alone to set the price

price farm products The time will when the farmer
