Hay Growers Committee to Meet

Chairman Edward Pattee of the committee designated for the purpose of assisting in the organization of the farmers in a hay growers cooperative movement, has called a meeting for tonight at S:30 o'clock in the Water Users building at Phoenix. The mem- bers of the committee are as follows: Edward w. Pattee, Mesa; F. O. Brown, Scottsdale; Leonard Nets. Mesa; Leu Young, Phoenix and Rudolph Johnson, Glendale.
 The benefits to be derived by the members of the organization proposed are in part, the financing of the indi- vidual so that he will not be forced to sell his hay on a low marke,, and through the handling of the crop by the organization, enable the individual farmer to get the advantage to be ob- tained from selling in large quantities to the heavy buyers.
 The same plan as that which built up the raisin, citrus, vegetable and decid- uous fruit industries of California to a paying business, is open to the valley farmers with such notifications as are necessary for handling the hay crop.
