As a matter of fact, the farmers have been doing that very thing along a number of lines for years. The western farmers began doing this by building their own corn and wheat elevators and holding their crops for the miller to come to them and pur- chase. Before that they had market ed direct to the miller and the miller. controlling the machinery of market ing, paid what he chose to pay. Kan sas burned corn and wheat in fire grates.
 In the past few years southern farmers have adopted the cooperative marketing method. Hogs, cattle, peanuts and other farm products are assembled at central points and a common agent does the selling by telegraph and attends to the carload shipments.
 Cullman strawberries are shipped in carload lots with agents stationed at Ohio river gateways to direct the cars to the best markets. Peaches are marketed in the same manner.
 The proposed law may secure the farmer certain immunities for nation wide and international crop market ing, but the cooperative marketing system already in vogue has done the real emancipation.

PAY THE PRICE,
SAYS COAL MAN
Farmers Get Explanation of
Fuel Costs.

Coal operators in Indiana are not gen
orally profteering and the only present
solution for the problems of the fedora
tions Of farmers in the state is to pay
the prices prevailing, Carl J. Fletcher,
secretary of the Knox County Coal OPP
orators. today told the farmers repre-
sentatives of the grain growers meet
ing In the opening meeting OF the two
day session at the Claypool hotel.
Unsatisfactory conditions resulting
from the railroad tieup during the
switchmen's strike and the inability of
operators to maintain a full-time mining
schedule, together with the speculative
buying tendenc yof industries needing
coal, has brought about high prices, Mr..
Fletcher declared.
"By fall, however, prices will be bet
ter" predicted Mr.. Fletcher, "but that
will not help you men out during the
thrashlng season, and so the only thir-s
that can be done is to pay the prices"
That many Indiana operators have
been operating at loss on account Of
the unstable mining conditions, while
other smaller concerns have been prof
iteering wss pointed out by the speaker.
Andrew Smith, secretary of the Indi-
ana Bankers association, spoke to the
grain growers this morning on the sub
ject. Enhancing the Movement Of the

McADOO AND cox
OUTSTANDING NAMES

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2S-William
G. McAdoO remained the enigma OF the
democratic convention today.
The forces behind Gov. James NJ Cox
privately declare that McAdoo is final in
his refusal to run and claim a heavy
over Sunday gain for their Ohio candi-
date, alleging that on the third or fourth
ballot I'VE will be swinging better than
GOO votes"
This statement is on the assumption
that McAdoo will stick to his declination.
The other side Of the picture is a state
ment by Senator Carter Glass Of Vir-
ginia, as follows:
II have assumed all along and do now
that Mr.. McAdOo will run If the nomf-
nation is forced upon him. / base this
statement upon Mr.. McAdoo's own state
ment that no man could refuse the presi-
Dental nomination If it were given to
him by his party"
McADOO BOOSTERS
HOLD MEETING.
Sunday afternoon more than sixty
men interested in seeing McAdoo nomi-
mated, met at the Palace hotel and laid
tentative plans to boost him up the lad
der in the convention.
Samuel Amidon of Kansas presided.
Rev. Burris Jenkins of Missouri who
has nominating speech for McAdoo in
his right-hand pocket, listened atten-
lively.
Others were Robert Wooley, interstate
commerce commissioner; Frank r. Wilson,
McAdoO's publicity man during the Lib
erty loan drive; former Congressman
Bellamy of North Carolina and Whaley of
South Carolina, Thomas B. Love of Tex
as, Congressman Brown of New York, As
sistant Secretary of Treasury Jouett
Shouse, Kansas, and Angus Mclean of
South Carolina.
A poll had been taken of the state del
egations, it was reported, giving McAdoo
approximately 260 votes on the first bal
lot.
On second choice he jumped high, his
friends said and, according to them, he
could go over the top on the Seventh
ballot"
But NcAdoo is "out of it." according
TO the Cox shouters and perhaps that is
true and maybe it is not, just as you
may prefer to guess.
1t is known that Glass saw McAdoo
before the former left the east.
