PLANS FOR NATIONAL EGG MARKETING ASS'N OUTLINED AT MEETING Plans for a National Cooperative Egg Marketing association were made in Chlcauo this week by representatives of states which already have state or district cooperative egg marketing agencies, according to word received last night from Columbia, the head quarters of the Missouri Farmers association, by Walter W. Wads worth, president of the Greene County Farmers Sales association. The nationnl association will become effective, the dispatch said, as soon as 16 etntes join the movement. Provision was made at the meeting for a national advisory committee on egg marketing which will consider and formulate plans for the national organization and also will consider questions relating to egg marketing, Including grading and standardization, it was said.

Recognition was given Missouri's pioneering in the marketing scheme by those attending the Chicago meeting. Howard A. Cowden, Columbia, secretary of the Missouri Farmers association, attended. Missouri, said Mr. Cowden at Chicago, handled one half million crates of eggs cooperatively last year.

The farmers, through the proposed national association, expect to dominate the egg market, said Mr. Wadsworth. This will mean, he said, that the farmer will receive more and the ultimate consumer pay 1mm than now, as, he added, speculation nnd unnecessary middlemen will be eliminated. Farmers now receive an average of only 32 cents on the onedollar ultimate nclllng price, said Mr. Wadsworth, for nil kinds of products.

The "producers" contract plan of cooperative marketing," now being signed up In various Missouri counties by farmers, will mean that farmers must sell all their protects through cooperative ngen rles. More than 76 per cent of the farmers in Franklin. Phelps, Gasconade! Maries and Sullivan counters have signed the contracts, Mr. Wadsworth said. A mass meeting of farmers from 17 Southwest Mis.

sourl counties will be held at Con vcntlon hall here tomorrow to launch signing campaigns In each of these counties next Monday.
