Marketing Problems.

The benefits of cooperation in
marketing and how to organize
local marketing units will be the
theme of the marketing section
of the Farmers Week program.
The experience of successful
Missouri organizations and their
managers will be drawn upon in
presenting the marketing work.
One part of the program, classed
with marketing, is a meeting of
representatives of all livestock
shipping associations in Missou-
ri, called to consider forming a
state organization.
The big marketing problem of
the average Missouri farm di-
vides itself into the problems of
livestock marketing, gram mar
keting and produce marketing.
By organizing a shipping asso-
citation, farmers who send less
than a car load of stock at one
time have found themselves on
a level with the carlot feeder.
The farmers elevator has prov
ed a leading factor in solving
the grain marketing problem in
many Missouri communities.
Well planned organizations for
the cooperative marketing of
produce have made to the far
mer a very favorable difference
in the price of cream and eggs
at their respective shipping
points. To show what some COM
munities have done is the aim of
the Farmers Week conferences
and talks on marketing. As the
principles brought out are appli-
ed in other communities, the
marketing problem will be solv-
ed.

New York, July War on powder

Because of inability to get needed

ting cash on the district securities I'M
der the contract made last April with
Tate Brothers of Little Rock. The
commissioners, attorney, assessors
and engineers had completed their
work according to law and had filed
the transcript of their proceedings
with the attorneys for the bond buy
ers, who would not approve an issue
which failed to have 25 per cent mar
gin between bonds issued and assess
made. District No. had such
a margin, after a few minor changes
had been made. Because these changes
were made the representatives OF the
bond buyers insisted that the entire
be revised and that the
usual advertising and other lengthy
procedure be done over again. AS It
was impossible to do this within the
time limit, it was decided to recall
the transcript of proceedings from the
Little Rock attorneys and wait until
the money market was more settled
and bond buyers were not so anxious
70 find excuses for not taking the Sc
,urities. sThe project has not been
abandoned, but is simply sleeping.
