men cannot take ADVANTAGE of them
The solution of the difficulty declared
Mr.. Sherey. is co-operation which has
for its aim the welfare of the farming
home and of the consumer. We must
have an economic democracy before we
can establish this cooperation between
the producer and the consumer. and be-
tween capital and labor. democracy will
go by the board and Christianity be
merely a theory.
"If you men are loyal TO your county
farmers exchanges. to the Eastern States
farmers exchanges. and will get back
of the \. f. NJ. r. A., 7 know there is
not farmer in Vermont who wants to
see my home oppressed, exploited, driven
to the wall declared Mr.. Sherley in
closing.
Half a million dollars goes from New
ENGLAND n q,
which might come into Vermont Be
cause we do not raise the food here. in
dustres slip away and the farmers will
soon lose their markets unless they can
produce more. We must learn to link
up industrial labor with farm labor and
climate all unnecessary waste"
