Plaza Farmer Has Unique Plan.

Plaza Pioneer: Mr.. Cardy, from
north of town was in last week with
a new idea. His idea is that the
townspeople could start cooperative
consumers farm. He proposes to sell
$4,000 worth of right to buy butter,
eggs, produce, grain, and he will sell
such things raised at 10 per cent mar
gin of profit, without freight. The
town people will pay $40 year for
the privilege of purchasing produce
at this farm. Mr.. Cady promised to
invest $4,000 of the $4,000 in the
farm and equipment. In this MAN.
ner townspeople will be assred of get
ting their produce at a reasonable
profit. With regard to the surplus
of $4,000 he says what he does with
that is none Of the townspeople's d
business He will spend it for edu-
cational, political purposes, or any
thing he thinks will benefit the towns
people.
Mr.. Cady claims that the reason
people in town are growing poorer
and the farmers are growing wealth.
Ter, is because the farmers are rob-
bing the townspeople; they have been

sumer get his produce directly from
