Farmers' Trust and Grange Compared in Trade Debate
Walter N. Allen of Kansas Farmers' Trust argues in St Louis Globe-Democrat that the Trust seeks to control prices of farm products sold, while the Grange regulates prices of what farmers buy. He describes the Grange as a secret society with moral bonds, while a Trust is a cooperative of firms restricting competition to prevent monopolies. The piece discusses names like Farmers' Protective Union and explains trust concepts and their impact on price levels and market balance.
