ing grain on an already flooded mar
ket.
1--WE don't claim that we are going
to save the farmer lot of money by
cutting handling charges. The good
that We do will be mainly in stabiliz-
ing the price of wheat the year round,
SO that when farmer has wheat to
sell, he can get what it is worth.
"The existing methods of handling
grain all will be used by the associa-
ton. The association is not throwing
mud at the boards of trade or the
milling companies. AS far as the
board of trade is concerned, the farm
ers themselves have made that organ
ization necessary by insisting on the
dumping of all their grain in the fall.
Somebody has had to take care of the
wheat till the markets and mills could
absorb it."
Mr.. Lampson traced the course of
bushel of wheat in the association
pool from the time it left the farm to
| the time it's value was realized in full
by the farmer.
"The farmer receives an advance of
so cents bushel when he hauls to the
elevator" he said "The grain is then
| shipped to terminal warehouses where
a loan is secured on it from the gov
ernment intermediate credit banks.
The first payment to the farmer is
made possible by money loaned from
the Denver banks. AS soon as the
government loan is made, the Denver
loan is repaid.
'Under the plan of orderly market
ing. about one-twelfth of the years
supply of grain is sold each month.
When sufficient amount of the wheat
has been sold to take up the loans,
the next sales made are pro-rated to
the growers in the pool. These sec
ond payments usually occur in Febru-
ary, and there are three or four be-
sides the first advance until the pool
is settled. ..-.. ...r
"Under the cooperative plan tn Q
farmer is certain Of the average price.
There is no gambling" ..
Mr.. Lampson urged the more ex-
tended allowance of loans by business
men to cover the marketing period
for the farmer. ut is unjust to fur
nish him with capital to cover the
growing period, and then force him to
sell at the low fall prices" he pointed
out. &
1He olSN-op ny hail campaign
was inaugurated in Sedgwick county
for the purpose Of cutting down the
expense of sending out large force
of field men. Every dollar saved in
signing up members, it was pointed
out, is just that much saved for the
farmers in the pool.
AS an inducement to sign up be-
fore Sept. 8th, Mr.. Lampson has ap-
proved of the, offer, of the Grit-Advo-
cate to give q years subscription to
every farmer who signs up before a
week from next Saturday. "This is
not in the nature of q premium" he
explained. "The Grit-Advocate might
be called our official paper in tn 8
town, and the money saved, in secur-
ing memberships by mail justifies US
in sending the paper to our new men,
bers."
