North Dakota Elevators Meraed In
Scheme, Handle Coal, Flour, Irvine

rargo.-The creation of a central
buying agency that will handle the
purchasing of such commodities as are
sold by farmers elevators in North
Dakota was brought about at the an.
nual meeting of the North Dakota Ele.
vator Managers and Directors asso.
citation held in Fargo.
M. w. Thatcher, st. Paul, was made
president of the buying agency and j.
A. Axtell, Fargo, was made manager
and general secretary, subject to his
acceptance.
By the adoption of the plan, the
farmers elevators that are merged in
the scheme have hopes of buying on
a closer margin that they now can
buy on by reason of the greater vol
ume of business that will be handled
through the single agency.
Purchase of coal, flour. Irvine, farm
implements, ETC., would be handled
under the direction of the central
agency, these being lines that many
farmers elevators already handle.
