T here a re m any problem s of legisla-
tion w hich claim th e atten tio n and
best thought cf th e farm ers a t th is
tim e. The farm ers a re in politics and
they a re th e re to stay. The tim es de-
m and the very best efforts of all.
To re a d y cooperate you m ust put
yourself in, m ust stick and hang to-
gether. Some boast th a t they can
m ake m ore money by staying out, but
’ they should be o stracised by all co-
' operating m em bers.
'
Cooperative m ark etin g was spoken
of by Mr. Flaville as one of th e g re a t­
est problem s of th e age. They are
now in this co untry 50,000 cooperative
m arketing associations and service is
th e big factor in all of these. Service
is one ot the g re a te st th in g s in th is
age and it m ust be given w ithout a
string.
''T he farm er m ust succeed,” said th e
speaker. O therw ise business and in ­
dustrial conditions m ust face chaos.
The w elfare of the farm er is one of
the big problem s ot th e business m en ,
of th e state, for th e ir own good as
w ell as for th a t of th e farm ers.
We need middlem en b ut m ust have
the rig h t kind. We need optim ism
and tolerance, said Mr. F laville. The i
follow ing am using definitions w ere j
given: An optim ist is one who sees )
light w here th e re is no light. A pes­
sim ist is one who com es along and *
tu rn s off th e light.
