ment, Says Corresp pondent

A recent letter from our English
correspondent. F. Dewhirst, says that
cooperation amongst farmers is a live
topic for discussion In Britain. says
the Winnipeg Farmers Advocate. The
government. he says. seem strongly
inclined to give substantial encour-
agement to the movement All over
the country meetings have been held.
and the substantial benefits to be de-
rived commented upon. R. A. Yer
burgh. head of the Agricultural Or
ganization Society. Is q vigorous cham
pion Of cooperation. and points out
the advantages of cooperative socie-
ties as compared with ordinary lin
tied companies. In cooperative socie-
ties the shares are allotted to any far
mer who applies. and profits and
bonuses are divided amongst the far
mers who are members. With linn
tied liability company there is the
strong temptation to declare high divi-
dends. Shares would sell at a prem
ium. and the profits would tempt out
siders to invest, and thus divert the
benefits from farmers. When a CO.
operative society is kept to farmers,
no one else can touch 1t or use 1t
against the farmer.
1t is further pointed out that MIR.
Yerburgh quoted some recent results

FARM COOPERATIVE BANKING
More Than $4,000 Organizations In
Germany-operate Largely on .
Debenture Basis.

Years before we or any country de.
veloped urban combinations, corpora.
tions and trusts. Germany. France.
Italy and Denmark had developed ru.
raj cooperative banking, marketing
and purchasing organizations to mar.
velous degree and mutual profit. In
Germany alone, for instance. there are
more than $4,000 such organizations
There are about 10000 Raiffeisen CO.
operative banks. and several other sys-
tens. exclusively Of and for farmers.
doing an annual business In excess OF
a billion dollars. with 100000 custo.
mers and farm loans Of S5OO,OOO.OOO.
They operate largely on debenture
basis, the farmers giving their mort.
cages to the bank and the bank Dor.
rowing at long time and low rates on
the aggregated mortgages, writes B
F. Harris in the Breeders Gazette.
The interest rates average not over
per cent. and some Of their amortiza.
tion plans pay out principal and inter.
est In forty or fifty years on yearly
payments Of ~ to per cent.
In this country We hear the protests
Of the consumer and OF the farmer
due to the pressure Of organized
finance and commerce. which would
be largely reduced II agriculture was
as well organized. Protest against
big business is idle. We can only
regulate and control 1t. Such control,
with equally effective organization on
the part Of farmers. will re.establ
the balance between the various fac.
tions and economic factors Of this
country necessary to maintain our
preeminence.
In other words. Europe developed
combinations first in the country for
the general good. while we have first
developed combinations In the city,
not always for the general good. They
have helped themselves by helping
the farmer farm. while we have been
more disposed to farm the farmer and
many Of his city cousins.
The farm is the best place God ever
planned In which to live broad, free,
helpful. efficient. serviceable and hon.
orable human lives.
