FARMERS' UNION RIVALRY.
The great secret is out. The Fanners' Union is accusing certain interests of trying to destroy the usefulness and strength of the F.U. by seeking to hive off the dairy farmers. Tho F.U. Iras only itself to blame for this effort to form a separate union. For long enough the small farmer, and especially tho dairyman, has complained that his wants and needs were being utterly ignored by the executive of the F.U., which was partial to the pastoral interests, and especially to the men in a large way of business. The development of the Dairy Pool has givon the dairymen their opportunity. And there is a good deal in the argument that the interests of the dairyman and the pastoralist widely differ. It takes a slump time to make men closely examine their affairs, for the purpose of closer organisation, and the dairy farmer is the most modern instance.
