COOPERATIVE PLAN
URGED UPON STATE
Director Of Minnesota Department. Of
Agriculture Would Townleyize En-
tire State and Put Retail Agencies
in Complete Control of Farmer So
cieties.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. Paul. Nov. 17.-State supervi
sion of machinery for. marketing and
cooperative ownership OF retail
agencies by farmers are recommen-
ded in report by u. j. Hughes. di-
rector of the Minnesota department
Of agriculture, made public today.
The report is the result OF an investi-
cation by the department into condi-
tons affecting the marketing of farm
products, ordered by the 1919 !egis-
lature.
Cooperative ownership Of the
marketing machinery is offered as
the best available solution OF the
farmers marketing problem, says the
report.
Cooperative ownership of retail
agencies such as grocery stores, meat
markets. milk depots and similar
places is suggested as "a practical
solution of the unnecessary expenses
of living borne by the consumer"
Mr.. Hughes recommends that local
cooperative elevators create a CEN
trail selling agency and hold mem
bership in grain exchange AS an
alternative the report suggests crea-
tion of central association to act
Independently Of existing grain ex-
changes.
Similar organizations Tor handling
live stock, eggs, hay. wool, dairy and
other farm products is advocated.

Neither his nor the story of Phillips

More men from Chicago and ST
