Every farmerJn Polk coun
ty should subscribe for one
or more shares in the Far
mers Co-operative Market.
It means extra dollars to you
to have it. -What
Cooperation Means.
Farmers in Limestone Co.
Alabama, built up a fine hog
raising industry, but they
were far from any central
market and sold their ani
mals to professional buyers.
The returns to the farmers
were very disappointing. A
Better Farming Association
was organized and their
hogs marketed cooperatively
and on twenty car loads sold
in this way received four
cents a pound more than of
fered by local buyers. The
saving in one year was a
round $12,000,
Farmers around Orchard,
Nebraska, organized a co
operative association and
marketed $147,850 worth of
their products. When they
assembled in Orchard a short
time ago one of the local
merchants furnished an or
chestra for their entertain
ment. His trade had in
creased fourfold since the
cooperative association be
gan operations, he said. The
town had become a popular
trading point with farmers
who had patronized it bnt
little before. Moreover, those
who had been steady patrons
had more money to spend
because they were no longer
dividing their profits with
several sets of buyers and
sellers.
Farmers in a small south
east Missouri town sold a
Car load of melons to. an out-of-town
buyer for sixty dol
lars. The buyer said that
was all he could pay as the
city markets were glutted.
. but there were other buyers
in town who knew the city
markets were not glutted
;and started a spirited bid-
J ? mi. i
umg. ine melons were
resold four times before thev
left the town and the last
price was $340. But only
the sixty dollars paitf to the
tarmers remained in the
community. Such practices
led to the organization of the
Southeastern Missouri Melon
Growers' Association, which
sells the farmers1 products
cooperatively. Returns to
the farmers have in many
cases been increased to four
or five times the amount re
ceived under the old method
. of selling to chance buyers.
