President of Grain
Growers Talks
C. H. GUSTAFSON GIVES FARM
Frs ADVICE AT SATURDAY
EVENING MEETING.

With the court room packed to its
utmost capacity with farmers Of Red
wood and adjoining counties, G. II
Gustafson, president of the U. s.
Grain Growers last Saturday evening
gave complete outline of the plans
Of his organization. The function OF
the grain growers in the main will be
to handle the farmers grain in such a
manner as to prevent slump on the
market. At the present over 80 per
cent of the grain of the United States
is dumped on the market in a period
Of less than three months.
By the farmer selling such large
percentage Of grain in such a short
time, he plays right into the hand OF
the Spectator. The Spectator thus
having most of the grain under his
control is in great measure able to
control the price. AS a matter of fact
last year there was sold as much as
sixty times more grain than was actu-
ally produced.
Mr.. Gustafson referred. to the farm
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1921-11-09

ers as being the poorest class of bust
ness men pointing out that when the
farmer sells his commodity he accepts
what is offered; when the farmer buys
an article he is: obliged to pay the
price that is demanded. The speaker
went on to say that as long as the
farmer remains in his present rut he
must expect to continue to be the und-
er dog, and he will continue to let the
SPECTATOR become rich and take what
the farmer has earned by the sweat
Of his brow.
The farmer who becomes member
of the u. S. Grain Growers will be
under a five years contract under
which he will be pledged to dispose OF
his grain to the association. AS soon.
as terminal elevators are established,
the organization will be able to finance
the farmer by advancing certain
amount of money on his grain.
AT the present, moneyed interests
have things so manipulated that the
farmers grain is shipped in the most
roundabout way and as result it
costs the farmer from 2 to 8 cents
more per bushel; whereas if direct
route were selected this money could
be saved and be added profit to the
farmer.
at is time, fellow farmers, that we
wake from our slumbers of poor man
agement and put the profit belonging
to us in our own pocket" concluded
the speaker in an emphasizing and
forceful tone.
