Grain Growers Plan Warehouses Across Grain Belt
Springfield May 14 At the second day of the National Grain Growers and Cattle Raisers association a plan to build a chain of warehouses in grain regions to hold wheat for higher prices was endorsed. The group pledged cooperation with the American Society of Equity to market collectively, selling grain to millers and exporters directly to British wholesale societies, aiming to cut out speculators and middlemen. The move seeks higher farmer income with or without price swings and without raising bread costs.
