New capital in sufficient a
mount to place the organization

organization in the country.
Its function, as always, lies en
tirely in the ability of the “Ex-8

prices in their monthly public
auctions for the producer and to
provide him Vv'ith a ready mar
ket for the raw product as well
as a good price.
