the farmers are certainly not get
ting square deal.
For instance, the butcher pays
us about one-third for a steer as to
what he gets. This is not fair, as
the farmer keeps this critter any
where from two to three years,
while the butcher keeps same but
a very short time and makes the
profit, as farmer can't figure
profit. 1t is certain that the con-
sumers are paying considerably
more than they should, according
to the amount the farmer receives
for same.
| believe in associations to q GER
tain extent. But when they can only
get 81 a ton for number one pota-
toes, net to the grower, and the
grower himself gets SIS in the
field, don't think much of an OUT
fit that is supposed to be working
for the farmers benefit.
Take butterfat for another in
stance. We are now getting 80
cents a pound, a. drop of IA cents

correct these abuses that you are
ranting about? Let me tell you

a spanked kid hoping that some
one will take pity on you and cor

would have had few years back
had she equipped her armies with
prayer books and sent them against
the Germans chanting the "Te
Deum." And then you damn your
self entirely by your backhanded
slap at cooperatives in general. j
say you liel Defy you to prove that
any cooperative, regardless of
name, in Kennewick, ever returned
as low as four dollars per ton for
any material quantity Of potatoes,
Perhaps you have heard of some
