Reorganize for Fight Milk producers of Douglas, Sarpv and Washington counties are indig nant nn account of the third reduction since January 1 In the price paid to them for their product by creameries. At a meeting in the county com missioners’ assembly room Saturday afternoon 200 farmers of the three counties revived the Tri-County Milk Producers' association and named a committee to negotiate on a basis that will be equitable to both sides. Pending definite agreement with tbs distributors, the producers will make It known In forceful terms that they will expect $2.50 per hundred pounds, f o. b, Omaha. The third cut made by the distributors this year, on April 2*. brought the price down to tIJMl tier hundred, on the basis of milk testing 3.5 butter fat. This price means $1.60 per hundred deliv erer! In Omaha, trhe explanation being that the farmers pay on an ayerage 40 cents per hundred for delivery. Washington country producers pay 60 cents per hundred hauling charge to Omaha. In which case, at the present pries they would receive $1.40 per hundred. "This transportation charge cuts a big hole In your monthly milk check,” asserted f'harles fteefu* of Washing ton county, who celled the confer ence.
