FARM EXCHANGE,
Advantage of Cooperation Is
Shown on Long Island.
A Potato Exchange That Did a Gross
Business of $4o7, 685.63 on a Capital
Stock of S12o0o-What These Farm
ers Did Others May Do.

BUSINESS OF @fU(,o6o.oo on Sapitai
Stock of S12, o0o-What These Farm
ers Did Others May Do.
Riverhead. N. Y, is headquarters of
the Long Island Potato Exchange, a
cooperative organization that is max
ing money for its stockholders by saw.
ing 1t. From the American Agricul-
turist we take some figures concerning
the society's operations that will show
what farmers can do If they will be
loyal to themselves and to organiza-
ton and will properly grade their
products.
During the year the exchange han
died 422, 069 bushels of produce shipped
in FOG cars as compared with 365,31S
bushels shipped in GA cars last year,
an increase of 56,751 bushels, or about
16 per cent. The grain handling in
creased from $3.356 the previous year
to $14.S79 this year.
The sale Of paris green, vltriol, sal
soda. lime, ETC., shows several hundred
dollars increase. 1t is expected that
car lots before long. While paris green
was sold at lower price this year
than last, it is believed that with equal
market conditions for crude material
the exchange can offer 1t for even less
next year. 1t Is expected that the eX-
change will ultimately handle practi-
cally everything needed by the farm.
The average amount of money in
vested in the exchange is slightly over
S20.50-that Is, each member averages
four and q fraction shares. There are
now COS stockholders, who own 2,492
shares at 50. This gives a paid up
capital of $12,46O on each. The ex-
change has done a gross business Of
S407 ,055. having turned over the cap
ital about thirty-four times during the
year. The treasurer handled an aver
age of over $1,000 each working day
during the year.
Last year 1000 tons of fertilizer and
tons. But Of this amount only 2,S77
tons could be delivered because the
fertilizer company failed to fill orders.
The volume of business done by the
exchange upon its small capital neces-
STATED borrowing money at interest
from the banks. This money could just
as well have been paid to stockholders.
To sum up the seasons experiences,
the exchange is making wonderful
progress in spite Of difficulties. 1t is
gaining ground continually and GER
talnly will become a larger factor in
the business of the island because OF
its increasing strength as n buying and
selling organization. All that is needed
is the loyal support of every member
to build up business.
The report of the secretary-treasurer
f. NJ. Robinson. shows n total transac-
ton Of $407. 6S5.G3. divided as follows:
Fertilizers and seed potatoes .. S97. $3.50
