The farmers generally have ex-
pressed B desire for this convention
similar to the one held at New Or-

won a notable victory in handling

The possibilities of the industry are
shown in the statement that there are

These figures would seem to indicate
that, other tilings being equal, there
is no danger of too many mills be
