The organization committee will work out the details of the association from local viewpoints. Articles of incorporation will be filed at once, but it is not the inten tion to take control of the crops this year, as many of the growers and as sociations have already made their selling contracts. The summer will be pppnt in organization work nnd in buy ing out and dissolving the local insti tutions. This is the largest organization of the kind ever attempted in the North west. It closely follows the California plan of co-operation, but the steps taken will prevent the domination of California interests in the marketing of northwestern products. Franklin County Alfalfa Cnt.
