The South Sea Islander ekes out a simple semi-savage existence 6000 miles to the west of us.: e Packing and Oil Magnates live in luxurious ease 3000 miles to the east in Chicago and New York. How much do these two widely divergent elements contribute to your prosperity? How much do they spend with you? The Dairy Farmer who asks you to vote for Referendum No. 16 is your neighbor and co-worker in building up this State. He spends his money here. Which are you most interested in seeing succeed? HAS STREKING JOB How Fat Actress 3 \ Became Slender 7 The coconut oil from the copra produced by this South Sea Island family, marketed as imitation butter, dis- places the output of a dairy farm equal to the one here pictured. Two thousand additional farms like it would exist in this State today but for the Margarine traffic. The displacement is a continuous one and is steadily reducing the number of such farms. There are fewer dairy cows in Washington today than there were five years ago, although our population has immensely increased. Will the employment of 10,000 such semi-savage families compensate you, Mr. Citizen, for the destruc- 3 tion of the Dairy Industry? 48,000 of the 62,000 Sierra!

Practically all of the money paid for imitation butter, except grocers’ profit, leaves this State forever. This South Sea Island family is representative of the unfortunate ignorant semi-sayage labor employed in coconut gathering and copra handling. You may judge as to their probable knowledge of sanitation. Can a product with such an origin equal that from a well-conducted dairy farm? This is a fight between the dairy farmers of Washington and the Packing and Oil interests. Do not be deceived by statements to the contrary. Sixty-five per cent of the butter manufactured in this state is made in factories conducted on a cooperative basis and owned by the dairy farmers of Washington. Do you think you need fear a price fixing butter monopoly from such a source? Have you not more to fear through monopoly. by the large Pack- ing and Oil interests who already control meats and oils, and whose seizure of the Butter markets will leave you further * to their tender mercies?
