Martha didn't hate Evan and she

covered slowly from the final hurt
he had inflicted upon her.
Came a day when she said that

The plan makes no attempt to put
grain marketing at once on a nation
wide pooling basis, but provides
means for the development and ex-
tension of pooling as experience
proves it's adaptabiIity to the grain
business. The three fundamental
elements in the proposed grain mar
keting system are the grain grower,
the local cooperative elevator com
pany or grain growers association,
and the central sales association. The
term grain grower includes amy
person who raises grain, and any
land owner who receives all or part
Of his rent in grain. To become a
member Of the proposed grain mar
keting organization. the grain grow
er must join the national sales asso-
citation, paying the membership fee,
which will probably be $40 for a per
manent membership. The surplus
grain of the members in given To-
cality may be handled in any one of
two ways as the members may decide
It may be handled by the local CO. OPP
erative elevator company, or grain
growers association just as at present
by purchase from members or by
may be pooled. In such cases the
directors OF the elevator company or
grain growers association will sell
the grain at such time as seems most
advantage and at the expiration
of the pooling period, will return to
each grower the average price re-
ceived for the grain Of his kind varie-
ty and grade, less cost of handling.
Pools may cover any period of time
up to one year.
The local co-opera tive eleva tor
companies, which have been SO sue
cessful in solving the grain market
ing problem locally, are to be re-
tanned as a basic part of the new
grain marketing system. In order
for an elevator company to become
an integral part of this grain market
ing system, however, it must be truly
co-opera tive and owned by members
of the National Sales agency. A rea-
sonable time will be allowed for ele-
vator companies TO make readjust-
ments necessary to meet these re-
quirements.
In case an elevator company does
not meet the requirem ents within the
time allotted, and in localities where
there is no farmers elevator company
the members Of the national sales
association in given locality will
organize themselves into a local grain
grove association. This associa-
ton may then provide for the han
ding of its grain in any of the fol-
lowing ways: 1t may contract with u
local farmers private or line elevator
to receive it's grain and load it for
shipment for a handling charge mutu-
ally agreed upon. 1t may rent Gn
elevator 1t may build or buy an
elevator.
The relation of the local farmers

association to the grain grower have
been explained. Its relation to the
central sales association will be as
follows: 1t will sign a contract with
the central sales association, agree
ing to deliver All grain received from
those farmers who are members Of
the national sales agency TO that
sales agency for sale, for a period of
probably five years. 1t may ship it's
grain to the central sales association
on consignment, in which case deter
IMITATION of time ana place of sale will
rest with the local elevator company
or grain growers association. The
sales association will sell the grain TO
the best possible advantage, when re-
ceived, and remit the proceeds, less
selling costs, TO Inc local elevator
company or grain growers associa-
ton. 1t may pool its grain with the
grain of one or more other similar
farmers elevators or grain growers
associations. Such pools may cover
any desired territory, time, and kind
of grain. All pools involving more than
one locality Will be under the direc-
ton and management of the central
sales association and the time and
place of sale will be determined by that
]
of attorneys will indorse that as legal.
Money for advance payment on
pooled grain will be furnished by the
sales association. When all the grain
in any pool is sold, the balance due
the local elevator company or grain
growers association will be paid to it,
based on the average price received
fer that kind, variety and grade, and
less necessary handling and selling
costs.
The sales association will be nom
profit. non capital stock organization.
All money received from the sale of
grain will be returned to the growers
through the local elevator company or
grain growers association, less the
cost of operation. The sales as
ISOLATION will have authority to
establish branch Offices TO organ
ize such subsidiary corporations
as its directors may deem
necessary. and control such subsi-
diaries through the ownership or con-
troll of the voting stock or otherwise.
The most essential Of these subsidiary
corporations are as follows: Ware
housing corporation. To own or lease
terminal and other elevators and the
necessary equipment. Export cor
poration. To handle grain for ex
port. Finance corporation. This cor
poration will probably not do a gen
eral banking business. Its principal
function will be to accept warehouse
receipts, issue it's own short time
notes against them, and so provide
funds to help finance the whole grain
marketing system. Selling companies.
To acquire seats on grain exchanges,
and to dispose Of grain thereon in
the u2,.al way. Legislation to open
these exchanges to farmers COM
panies is now being paslled in sew,
