COOPERATIVE SELLING.
How the Long Island Potato Exchange
Gets Rid of Its Tubers.

Gets Rid of Its Tubers.
Although the Long Island potato ex,
change is not a grange organization,
1t is doing some things that the grange
might profit by. 1t has a paid up
capital of only about S9,0O0 half of
which is available for use. The asso-
citation did a business Of over $4,000
last year. Commenting on the work
Of this exchange, the New York Fruit
mans Guide has this to say:
In the face of adverse conditions the
exchange handled practically a half
million bushels of potatoes for the
year. 252 barrels of onions and 3.715
bushels of carrots, or a total of 634
carloads Of produce. I'VE expect to
handle three times as many potatoes
this year." said the manager. All deal
ers together in this county sent to
market little less than 100000 bush
els of potatoes last year from about
1900 acres.
The association sold over 1900 tons
of fertilizer, besides 22,764 bushels of
seed potatoes and a quantity Of other
farmers goods, making a profit of over
$1,000 on such things combined.
The exchange started out with every
body against it. 1t had no standing.
1t lacked the confidence Of all people
everywhere. both farmers and sellers,
including the local leaders at stations.
1t has overcome the enmity OF all
classes to such an extent that dealers
are clamoring for admission into its
fold
