George f. Duis, member of the
board Of directors OF the. National
Wheat Growers association, outlined
the marketing scheme of the associa-
ton at a meeting of farmers held in
the city hall on Saturday afternoon.
Each Of the wheat producing states
is to have a separate unit Of organiza-
ton which will be connected through
a national sales agency. Mr.. Duis
pointed out. The plan further out
lined by Mr.. Duis was as follows:
In each state the farmers joining
the organization sign contracts agree
ing to dispose Of their marketable
wheat exclusively through the asso-
ciation. These contracts are binding
only In the event that certain mini
mum amount of wheat can be o n
tracted for in each. state. For North
dakota this minimum is 10000, geo
bushels.

ton expects to work through the
