Mr.. Connor told of the growth OF

than 5000 farmers elevators, large
number of creameries, cheese factoris

ability Of the farmers to CO. operate
in their business.
The speaker also dwelt upon the
benefits of the farm bureau to the far =
mer in the way OF looking after the
problems of transportation etc. The
speaker digressed here to speak on
the great Importance OF the Great
Lakes to Ocean waterways. This ne
said would be of inestimaDle value to

said that it would result in a great re-

In conclusion Mr.. Connor said that
there is a movement to discredit the
ability of the farmer to carry on his
business CO. -operatively, but the sue
cessful operation OF cooperative farm
industries all over the country shows
that this is not the case.
