Legion Has Tasks, Staff
King Saws

Addressing First district Legion
and Auxiliary members at Rochest-
er recently, department command
er Stafford King, declaring that
the Legion is ten years old, said :
"And we are heroes of the younger
generation, just as the G.. "A. r.
was to US.
"But we have responsibilities.
We Legionaires must get behind
civic enterprises if we intend to
progress. While we have many
projects of our own, we cannot
ask public aid in realizing them UNI
til we have won public confidence
by demonstrating in deeds the un-
selfish ideals we cherish.
cit is up to the Legion in every
section Of Minnesota to get be-
hind other organizations which are
promoting good deeds; and if nee
essary each post should lead in the
establishment of a municipal air
port, new parks, public buildings
and other projects which will en-
nance the community to it's citi-
zens
"Doing just that in an earnest
sincere way will sell the American
Legion to Minnesota citizens, y
commander King concluded.

much progress in the life on the
, farm, and none were more appar-
ent than the development of the
cooperative creamery. The pro-
gress at home is not noticed be-
cause it comes gradually.
The splendid success made by
the Sank Lake Cooperative Crea-
merry Association was a fine illus
! tration of practical progress. To
prove his contention he referred to
| his experience working in an in
adequate creamery handling very
poor products when he was boy
down in Carver county. He urged
the farmers to make their cooper
alive efforts stronger and pledged
the support of the educational fac
| ilities of the Sank Centre schools
to work out this program.
Walter Schriver, the youthful
buttermaker of Sank Lake cream
cry was introduced by President
Lying, and made a short snappy
talk, asking for the continued CO.
operation of the patrons.
Rev. John Fearon, pastor of Our
Church of the Lady of the Angels,
was down on the program for an
address but was unable to be pres
ent, having been called out of the
city by the illness Of sister.
President j. B. Schoenhoff,. of
the Stearns County Fair, was next
introduced. He urged the farmers
to support their fair to the fullest.
The officers were simply the agents
to carry on but that they could not
make a success unless they were
unitedly supported both in town and
country.
Before adjournment President
Lying expressed the appreciation of
Sank Lake Creamery Association
to the Sank Centre Herald for the
splendid cooperation and support
always given the creamery associ-
alton. Thanks were also extended
to V. G. Wedge, V. l.. Burgess,
Richard Schoenhoff, Carl Fischer,
C. E. Bohall, C. R. Bruce, John
Mondloch, the several ladies for
the splendid service furnished in
serving the lunch.
Special thanks were extended to
the Community Club for placing
the club rooms at the associations
disposal when necessity required.
Cigars for the men, eskimo pies
for the ladies were furnished by
several Sank Centre business men.

report of Secretary George Straus

In behalf of $4,000 Minnesota
Legion and Legion Auxiliary mem

men, Ray Egan, of Luverne, and
w. D. Villars, of St. Paul, have
placed in the hands of every Min
nesota legislator the Legion's 1929
program of state and national leg
islation. ~
Over 400 local Legion posts and
as many local Legion Auxiliary
units are voicing their wish that
Legislators give this program their
support; at the same time express
ing appreciation of past coopera-
ton and of the generous manner
in which the North Star State has
always dealt with it's veterans.
The program includes twelve
state planks and about as many
national measures. They deal
with conservation of state resourc-
es; soil surveys; opposition to the
damming of boundary waters and
to the adjustment of military
training at the university; child
welfare proposals; relief for wild
owed mothers of veterans; and the
changing of fishing and hunting OPP

the observance of Memorial and

Survey Shows Value Of
Cooperative Creameries
Pay &c Per Pound More Than Pro-
duoe Stations and independent
Creameriesi9 81

Too often we hear the state
ment that farmers cannot organize
and stick. This may be true in
certain sections of the country
where organizations have been i'm
properly set up and operated or
where high pressure organizer
has come in and organized farmers
for his own personal benefit leav-
ing the farmers 'holding the sack"
The intelligent farmer today will
not join any organization without
studying the value of the organiza-
ton and the character of it's lead
ers with the result that we have
better and stronger farm organiza-
tions and associations than ever.
Our Cooperative Creameries, Ele-
vators, Livestock Shipping Asso-
Citations, Mutual Insurance and
Farm Bureau are good examples
of well managed farm organiza-
tions each working on definite
problems.
Figures show that the average
Farmers Elevator in the county is
worth $13,0O0.00 per year to the
community it serves. Dairymen
in the county sell about two million
pounds of butter fat through CO.
operative creameries in year. A
countrywide price survey taken De-
cember II, 1928 showed that CO.
operative creameries paid &c per
pound more for butter fat than did
the produce stations and independ-
ent creameries. Other similar sur
veys have showed a difference of
lie or more. If we use &c per
pound as an indication of the val
ue of our cooperative creameries
to the farmer, we find that we have
S180,000.00 as the value of the
eight cooperative creameries in
the county or an average of $685.
100000 for each creamery. Our.
shipping associations, Farm Mu-
tual Insurance and Farm Bureau
can show similar savings to the
members. We wonder just how
much the farmer appreciates CO.
operative work. We are inclined
to think that our younger farmers
do not realize the value of these
organizations and do not give them
the support which they are deserv-

country every year because of an
inadequate tariff. The total value
exceeds $2,000,000,000 annually.
He predicted that this condition
would be remedied in compare
lively short time.
Because of the control of the
dairying industry in Minnesota by
the co-operatives the Minnesota
farmer receives an average of 9R
cents more for his butterfat than
does his neighbor in North Dakota.
The difference in South Dakota is
8 cents, Iowa cents. The indie
pendents are 6 cents under the CO.
operative prices in Minnesota and
the centralizer 8 cents.
The $50 cooperative creameries
in Minnesota tell the story.
Mr.. Hay said the Land o. Lakes
organization had its inception in
the office of the Commissioner of
Agriculture of Minnesota. He was
mighty proud Of the small part he
played in assisting IN getting this
organization starteo.
Proper food for dairy cattle,
hogs and poultry will be more of a
problem as time goes on. Mr.. Hay
said in the very nature of things
more feed will be purchased each
year as the dairy herds inevitably
increase. He urged the patrons of
the Sank Lake Creamery to seri-
ously consider the establishment of
feed grinding and mixing plant.
He pointed to several signal sue
cesses in the state. On being asked
whether molasses had any great
feed value, Mr.. Hay said about the
only value was that it made the
food more palatable. The gentle
man interespersed his talk with
several appropriately humorous
stories, magnifcently told. His
address was as we'll received as any
ever delivered at these annual
meetings.

address Oscar Dowswell, accompa-
