BY w. D. TREGO

The farmers of Canada had mum.
erOus organizations which lived fol
time and did some good in various
ways up to 1901 when the Manitoba
farmers under the stress of hard
times organized the Manitoba Grain
Growers association with view ia
improving their conditions in various
ways, but especially to try to work
out some plan for relieving them
selves from the heavy toll the eleva-
tor companies and grain spectators
were taking, from them in the mar
keting Of their grain.
The following year the Sackatch-
wan farmers started similar organ
ization with similar objects in view.
In 1904 the Alberta Farmers as
ISOLATION was formed with similar
objects, but at that time the Society
of Equity was organized over a good
portion Of Alberta and the two or
CARNATIONS, were both aiming at
similar objects but from different
angles and in 1906 an attempt was
made to amalgamate the two organ
izations, but it was not until 1908
that the amalgamation was finally
completed and the name adopted Of
the new organization was the United
Farmers of Alberta, with Equity"
as the motto Of the organization.
The first few years were years of
organization and the passing of reso-
buttons, but in the spring of 1906
the two older organizations, Mani
toba and Saskatchewan decided to do
something more substantial than the
passing of resolutions, asking their
governments to do something to re-
lieve them and they undertook the
organization of the Grain Growers
Grain company for the purpose of
selling the farmers grain by the car
load for which they charged a COM
mission of l cent per bushel and
started business with the handling of
the 1906 crop.
The first two years were marked
with the most strenuous conflict with
the organized grain interests in the
form of the elevator companies
which were gathering the grain thru
out the three provinces and the Ter
AAAul LlOFotOA COmp0AlCo -lAC
Winnipeg Grain Exchange and the
exporters at the head Of the Great
Lakes.
It was at the beginning of the
second years business when the
banks all refused to finance the COM
pany that things looked most serious
for the success of the company, but
a few of the most determined farm
ers pledging all their property and
by negotiating with a banking insti-
tuition which up to that time had
confined it's operations to eastern
Canada it was induced to open up
branch in Winnipeg and financed
the farmers company and from that
time forward business began to move

When these wise children of the south
ern seas opened up that "oven' the pork
was roasted ito turn" and seasoned
with the aroma of the leaves.
1t required big bunch of workers
couple of days to roast pork, but with
our present system and equipment you can
ring for roast and have it to eat Just
a little later in the same day. 1t does not
require the activities of the whole tribe
to dig and fetch and carry and no meat
nor fuel is wasted. These are some of
the advantages of civilization and in the
meat business we seek to lead. For your
loyal patronage we thank you.
