| pointed ont the cost of handling the
| milk under the contemplated coop
! erative plan would be materially de-
creased. The percentage of decrease.
the promoters said, would permit them
to reduce the price to the consumers
and yet enable the farmers to get more
for their output.
Control Milk In Five States
1.-THE members of the Dairymen's
league are interested principally in
milk. 1t developed that the New York
state grange and the PENNSYLVANIA
state grange already have under con-
sderation similar propositions with
reference to other farm products In
every case. it was said. the promoters
who submitted the proposition to the
Dairymen's league are behind the prof.
ect.
members of the league say they
cannot see why the consumers should
pay cents Il quart for milk and the
producers get only > cents quart
In discussing this phase Mr. Gerrow,
president of the league. said
The farmer Is not getting enough
for his products. and the consumer is
paying too much. The farmer has got
to get more. and the consumer should
not be compelled to pay more and, in
fact. cannot afford to pay more: hence
it is up to us TO reduce the cost to the
consumer and increase the receipts Of
the producer. If we do not do it some
one will some day. and we may Just
as well begin now
The Dairymen's league represents
five STATESMEN York. New Jersey.
Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Con-
necticut-and its members produce
most of the milk used by the con-
sumers in those respective states"
This effort, not only as it relates to
milk, but to all farm products. will
naturally spread throughout the land.
and the hope of those behind ii is that
farmers and retailers in all sections of
lie country will take it up.
That it is high time is made plain by
thr fact that prices of commodities are
again 1dvancing. Potatoes. -four. meat.
practically all the necessarieS of life.
are included in this latest increase. In
the case of potatoes the excuse Is
given that the crop is short. but this
cannot be urged in the case of flour
and meat. The conclusion is unavoid-
able that this boosting of prices is
brought about by combinations for
purposes of gain. II will bear espe-
cially on the poor There is but one
way of escape from this intolerabie
condition, and that is cooperation.
The producers and consumers must get
together.

1--WE have formed this association,
said Mr.. Kjelgaard, in the belief that
the farmer can do away with the
trusts by the simple eXpedient of plac-
ing his wares on the market himself
All he needs for this is IL selling organ

he will only cooperate with other
farmers.
"'Our organization has been worked
out OH this plan. and we are now ready
to begin after u year Of preparation.
The farmers of the whole country are
behind us and it is incredible that we
should fail
THE present high cost of living is
due to nothing else than lack of
farmer cooperation. We farmers have
had our eyes opened at last. and we
are now embarked on what we believe
will prove solution of one of the
greatest problems that now vex the
country"
Americanized Co. operation.
One of the chief points urged by
those in control Of this movement is
that cooperation has previously failed
in this country because it was not
Americanized. The English system
Iade the retail stores part of the
machinery and TO that extent stitied
the individual initiative of each dealer.
Under the new plan the proposal is to
leave the retail stores free. All the
cooperative movement proposes to do
, to have the farmer sell direct to the
retailer. In return for the opportu-
nifty to do this the retailer is bound
to give honest weight and measure
and good goods. In addition he is
bound to divide profits with the GUS
toner, arranged on the basis of GER
tificates of sale, the same as in the
Rochdale plan.
One Of the effects Of the campaign
for lower prices has already appeared
In the New York milk situation. The
problem of cheap and sanitary milk
