I attended a meeting at the Shermerville Local of The Pro- § | ducers Association and agreed to meet their demands in every way. f 1 I had their word that my supply would not be cut without first giving | I me notice. Then my farmers were forced by some members of the § 1 Association to break their agreement on Friday, February 8th, with- | 1 out any notice to me. I was helpless. 1 had no chance to give my | | patrons notice. I offered to sell out to Bowman Dairy Company so 1 | that my patrons would not suffer on my account. The offer was | | promptly refused. The Winnetka Sanitary Dairy Company through | | Mr. Kiewick and the Borden Dairy Company, through their Evanston | 1 Division Manager Mr. Gilbert, gallantly assured me they would lend § | me every assistance possible.
