Grain Co-operatives are
Seeking Marketing Pact
Working Arrangement is object of
Meeting Called by j. E. Reed OF
Minnesota Farm Bureau

Representatives of cooperative
grain marketing organizations in the
Northwest-the U. S. Grain Growers
Sales Company of Minneapolis, the
Northwest Wheat Growers and the
Equity Cooperative Exchange, met at
Fargo, N. D., April 10, to discuss an
arrangement to assure harmonious
growth of all agencies.
The meeting was called by j. F.
Reed, president of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation, who also is
president of the U. S. Grain Growers
Sales Company of Minneapolis.
Because of our interest in the well
fare of the producer" Mr.. Reed said,
1--WE are anxious to obtain an under
standing which will prevent friction
in the future. We have three recogn-
lied agencies in the Northwest and we
feel that the marketing of grain
should go toward without ntra-organ-
ization competition. The Fargo meet
ing was called to accomplish that end.
l am hopeful for desired results. How
ever, if an agreement fails, the full
support of growers will be behind the
policies of the U. S. Grain Growers
Sales Company" .
An agreement to coordinate grain
marketing efforts in Washington,
Oregon, Montana, Idaho, Nebraska,
Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas was
reached at Kansas City last week at
meeting attended by representatives
of the Wheat Growers organization
and of the U. S. Grain Growers, Inc.
The agreement provides that the
wheat growers shall restrict their ope-
rations to wheat in states indicated
above, while the Grain Growers are to
operate in Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, and
Indiana. The U. S. Grain Growers, Inc.
is to handle coarse grains in all states.
Both organizations are to have ter
minal facilities, but will work together
in organization, field service and pub
licity. Their idea is to eliminate COM
petition between the groups, but not
to bring about a consolidation.
The Fargo meeting this week is to
determine what can be done along
similar lines, insofar as Minnesota,
and North and South Dakota is con-
cerned. The situation in the Northwest
is slightly different from that in other
sections, for here is the only place
where the U. S. Grain Growers has
been able to put sales agency into
the field.
At meeting of directors of the U.
S. Grain Growers, Inc, held in Chi
cago, recently, Harry l.. Keere of
Walthill, Neb., was elected president,
Howard Leonard of Illinois, vice pre-
sident, and j. M. Mehl, secretary and
acting treasurer An executive COM
mittee composed of President Keefe,

: In Previous Campaigns, Minnesota
Has Led


Has Led
Heretofore, the Legion's practice
has been to raise enough money each
year to cover just that years decora-
ton and remembrance. But this
100000 endowment fund is different
for it is trust fund, the principal OF
which will not be touched, the inter-
est of which will serve from year to
year to carry on this labor of love.
To all previous campaigns for the
decoration of the graves of our over
seas dead Minnesota's answer has
been emphatic. The North Star State
has been the leader each year in the
task of placing on their graves the
tribute of a grateful nation.
This Year, Citizens Are Asked to Aid
In previous years the Legion has
shouldered this task alone. This year
every citizen is asked to aid. The
Mayors of our cities will help by is
suing fitting proclamaions, newspap-
ers will broadcast information about
the drive for funds, theaters and
other amusement centers will help by
advertising and by donating part or
all of their receipts from certain
showings. Clergymen will announce
this project from their pulpits and
may even designate special collec-
ion for this purpose. Civic, semi
civic and fraternal organizations will
help by circularizing their members.
Even the Little School Children
Will Help
Everywhere in Minnesota there will
be the spirit of cooperation between
our Legion posts and the public to
he end that all may unite in honor
ing the memory of those who died for
the flag. Even the little school chill
dren will want to contribute their
mite, for many will thus be paying
tribute to the memory of a father or
brother or uncle who did not return.
In all this work, careful record must
be kept of the names and amounts Of
contributions, so that all may be cred
tied with doing their share. Memorial
Day is fast approaching. Leaders of
the Legion all over Minnesota must
lose no time in organizing to honor
the memory of those we seek to keep
green in our hearts. Dignifed &C.
quiescense is not what your national
and department officers want. We
must have the enthusiastic coopera-
ton of all our posts, and through
hem, of all our citizens.
What Will Your Post Do?
Think back to 1920-1921-1922. If
yours was one of the Minnesota posts
which contributed then, you have
cause to feel proud and happy now.
And if in the years which have passed,
your post has neglected this solemn

graves of those who sleep in foreign
soil?
