Mr. II. A. Wood gives an account
OF remarkably successful COOP

managed by five hundred Iowa
farmers, who last year carried
on business Of more than six
hundred aud twenty thousand
dollars on a capital of twenty FIVE
thousand dollars. with a total ex-
pense for salaries. rent. insur.
ance. etc. of less than four thous-
aud dollars, This experiment
antedates by many years the
movement among the farmers
OF Kansas. These Iowa farm.
ers have operated their company
for thirteen years. during which
time they have transacted more
than five million dollars worth OF
business without the loss OF
dollar, and at no time has their
indebtedness been more than five
thousand dollars.
