Continued from first page. J

States exchange, gave very interest
ing talk on the problems of cooperative
buying and selling. New England is fast
becoming interested in this subject and
local organization for this purpose is
spreading rapidly throughout the states.
Such effort brings other results than
mere savings in dollars and cents in de-
veloping loyalty through dealing to-
gether Disloyalty of one man to an
other in business deals has been the bane
of cooperation. The establishment of a
cooperative farmers exchange is the
establishment Of a new iobber working
on a non-profit basis. Credit and stor-
age are services offered by local dealers
which are paid for by those dealing
through them. Cooperative purchasing
does not mean furnishing these services.
Banks are established for handling the
credit and most banks will take exchange
notes backed by notes of the individual
farmers. The local manager must be a
man the farmers can put their trust in.
Cooperative organization tends to stabil-
ize prices in a community even though
only 25 to 20 per cent of the local needs
are handled through the exchange. The

is to be overhead of the county or other
local units. In time it expects to buy
direct from miller and elevator and sell
directly TO local exchange Mr. Selby
mentioned several times the work of the
Newbury Farmers exchange recently or
gained in that town to deal co-opera-
lively in this manner Mr.. Selby also
touched on the present feed situation
when wheat feeds were low in price be-
cause of government regulation but
scarce. He gave as one reason why New
England farmers can get little wheat
feed this winter is the attractive price
to local men near the big mills to secure
cheap feed and that attraction such
trade Is to a mill which can thereby Sc
cure both jobber and retail profits An
other reason is the tendency at present
to mill small amounts of wheat but ship
more abroad. Mr.. Selby sees chances for
lower prices later but little chance of de-
livery for feeds not ordered soon. He
predicts a greater shortage of freight
cars for feed transportation this winter
than last.
Members Of Washington County Farm
bureau were present, having chosen Chel-
sea as their destination for county auto
trip. About 80 made the trip, coming
from all parts of Washington county.

ly find themselves in cant work
can't fight" class. They came to the
United States in various official capa-
cities for the old Russian government
under Gar Nicholas, but with the fall
Of his empire their official positions like
wise persisted.
They now find themselves as men
without country, their old land in
turmoil, and their funds-th though many
of them were rich in Russia almost ex-
hausted All are said to be anxious to
return home, but getting to Russia now
is most difficult
The plight Of the man, however, has
been called to the attention of officials
Of the United States government, who
are seeking to place the men in govern
Inent work, it was said to-day. Private
concerns also are employing the men,
getting in touch with them through the
Russian embassy. Among the army Off
GERS are found men ranking from lieu.
tenants to major general and among the
navy those ranking from ensign to com
mander.

in the case Of the Montpelier National

of which are that they deny the mort

tiffs claim, but that the foreclosure as
set forth would be inequitable to some OF
those interested in the matter.
