Greenwood, Texas. ■ - - ■e- _ i ----—
The situation of the Wise county
market for dairy products with refer-
ence to the movement now organizing
in north Texas to market whole-milk
cooperatively was looked into last
Thursday when a committee of local
men went to Dallas to attend the larg-
est meeting yet held on the subject.
The committee was composed of Co.
Agt. W. M. Love, D. B. Gililland, J.
O. Reynolds and Secretary Cliff Cates
of the Chamber of Commerce.
The Decatur constituency has had
repeated invitations to attend the
several previous meetings that have
been held in Fort Worth and Dallas
in the effort to bring north Texas
producing dairymen into a coopera-
tive marketing movement that will
have the effect it is claimed, of stabil-
izing the market and securing to the
producers a better share of the profits
of the business, but not before had it
been found convenient or practical for
local men to look into the matter.
Recently, however, by a means of
indirection it was rather alarmingly
discovered that unless Decatur peo-
ple awoke to their interest in the mat-
ter there existed a certain danger of
our local comunity being organized
out of the market on which it now re-
tains a grasp. Hence, the trip of in-
vestigation to Dallas. The committee
feels itself well repaid for the effort
to get in touch with the marketing
end of the dairy business. Informa-
tion of importance to the loca(, in-
dustry was learned and it is a mat-
ter of gratification that the interest
of Wise county was voiced in the mat-
ter and that this vicinity must be
recognized in any cooperative ar-
rangement that is entered into.
The associative effort of north Tex-
as dairymen gr<5W out of the p“
sistent efforts of the Texas Farm
Bureau to perfect a pooling plan of
both buying and selling that is prom-
ised to eliminate much of the waste
and <
secure to dairymen greater partici-
pation on the profits of distribution.
The whole effort .is still in the
hands of a committee of producers
who are acting together with a com-
mittee representing the distributors
and consumers for the purpose of rs-
duoing the dairy business to more
satisfactory economical basis. The
personell of this committee seems al-
together to be satisfactory to the

of the committee had been encounter-
