CO-OPERATIVE DAIRY PLAN No sooner was The Star out yes terday with a letter from Ira T. Wolfe, suggesting « municipal market, with.a municipal dairy as jone feature, than in came Robert, Burt, editor of the Pacific Poultry- man, and state live stock commis- sioner for the Panama-Pacific ex- position. | He suggests a stock company of) milk consumers here in the city| he nucleus of one big dairy for] Seattle. He would start with 1,000 mem- | bers, selling shares for possibly) $10 each, which he thinks would enable the company to buy a! dairy. | By duplicating duplication tn de- very and doing away with profits, he figures a big ving could be realized, and that all the milk con sumers of Seattle would ultimate ly be included in the project. “It figures out well on paper,” says Burt, who intends to talk it around a bit and sound public opinion.
