The South, Dean Cooper said, is
more nearly organized under the

effective work has been carried on
he said. Speaking of the work being
attempted in the south, Dean Cooper
said:
"The association of Southern Ag.

twenty one years ago. Its member.

agricultural representatives OF the
great transportation systems in the

Object of Association
1.-The object OF the association has
been to unity and coordinate agricul'
tural effort particularly to bring abou,
greater cooperation in the expert
mental and investigational work IN
the experiment stations. Its result Il
the conservation of funds thereby en-
larging the opportunity for effective
work and broadening the field OF ac'
tivity. Its studies, reports and con
ferences embrace the field OF ANNA
husbandry. crop development and the
various economic aspects OF finance
marketing and tenancy as related tc
the farm problems of the south.
"The county agent system carries
the information developed by the eX,
pertinent stations of the agriculture
colleges and by the Department OF
Agriculture to the farmers OF the
state. The south has more nearly

MILK MEN TO CONSULT
PUBLIC WISHES
Consumers to BeConsidered In
Make Up of the Price
Schedule

Members of the Mankato Milk Pro-
ducers association at their meeting
in the basement of the Mankato State
bank last night, decided upon a square
deal for all in matters of milk dis
tribution. 1t was agreed to adjust
prices which will be based upon the
actual cost of production plus fair
profit, so that pure wholesome milk
will be within reach of all the peo-
pie. The association does not pro-
pose to be made up of profiteers,
but does want a fair profit on the
product. In order to arrive at a fair
price both to the producer and con-
sumner, the members of the associa =
ton will base their wholesale prices
on the actual cost of production plus
a reasonable sum for their labor, time
and trouble. At the next meeting
of the association members will
make reports as to the cost of pro-
duction in order to strike fair av-
erage price. At the next meeting of
the dairymen, it is proposed to have
one Of the twin city milk producers
present to address the meeting.
600 Cows Represented.
Forty members of the association
were present last night. These mem
bers represented 600 cows. The tenn
porary organization which was form
ed some time ago, was made per-
manent last night. The temporary
officers elected at a former meeting
were made permanent last night,
and the following officers will serve
during the ensuing year: Howard
Kimball, president; A. D. Stanford,
vice president; F. E. Watts, secre-
tary- treasurer.
County Agent L. E. Mcmillan, was
present at the meeting and heartily
approved of the plan adopted. He
stated that this plan of organization
Is under way all over the country
President Kimball said that he be-
lieved that all transactions of the
organization should be made public
In that way the confidence of the
consumers can be gained by fair and
open dealing.
A committee of five was appointed
to draw up bylaws. This commit
tee consists of President Kimball,
Vice President Stanford, S. D. Whit
ing, P. N. Thompson and John Steele.
