Land O'Lakes has endorsed the
Federal Farm Board, is working
with the Farm Board and the read
er should ask Mr.. Brandt or any
of it's 81 directors if the Farm
Board has ever interfered with run
ming their business. The Twin
City Milk Producers association is
a member of Land O'Lakes, known
as District 16, has marketed its
butter through Land O'Lakes and
is now represented on that board
by it's vice president, ]. E. Irwin.
Land O'Lakes was designated the
regional for handling high scoring
butter in the central northwest by
the Farm Board after it was re-
commended so to do by the advis-
DRY commodity committee of seven
men representing the largest dairy
cooperatives of America.
The National Cheese Producers
Federation of Wisconsin, the larg-
est organization of its kind in the
world, has endorsed the Farm
Board and is working with it in
complete harmony. The Twin City
Milk has long been unit of the
Cheese Federation for marketing
it's cheese and w. S. Moscrip, pres

Early last spring the Milk Pow
der Manufacturers of America
wanted to form national clearing
house for milk powder. They ask
ed that the Farm Board call meet
ing to assist in this work. This the
Farm Board did and meeting was
held in Chicago to discuss the sit
uation. H, r. Leonard, manager of
the Twin City Milk Producers as
ISOLATION, attended the meeting,
took part in it's proceedings and
was appointed one of a committee
of seven to perfect plans for a per-
manent organization. Now this
seems to be discussing fairly and
truthfully the activities of the
Board"
But let us go on. If the farm
ers of America who are supporting
the National Marketing program
want to know what company they
are in, all they have to do is to
read the following list of organiza-
tons, all of which have endorsed
the Farm Board and marketing act

The Federal Farm Board does
not form national marketing as
sociations of any kind. Farmers
cooperatives all over the country
have formed national associations
in marketing wool, livestock, grain,
fruits and vegetables, cotton, Pc
cans, sugar beets, dried beans, etc.
1t is not the boards function to
form nationals but producers must
request and make the initiative as
has been done in every case.
