Cooperation in Marketing

From the Nebraska State journal.
A market gardener in Kansas recently
had a photograph made of a shipment of
lettuce He had 100 baskets which made
q brave show when massed on the out
side of his greenhouse. But he was not
making the display to crafty his vanity
He wanted to point a moral THE picture
enclose" he writes to his favorite news
paper, '.shows 100 baskets of lettuce ready
for market. To reach the consumers, 81
of these basket loads go to the middle
men for the expenditure of a little jaw
bone. and 80 to the producer for three
months labor. a quantity of coal and
expensive equipment. Could / reach the
consumers direct l should get twice as
much for my produce and the consumers
would save one-third."
The idea of this gardener is that the in
dustry needs market adviser That
is to say. it needs cooperation in mar
1eting. An association for that purpose
seems to be the indicated remedy. Co
operation in marketing has passed the ex-
detrimental stage. Under good manage
ment it is the cure for most of the evils
Under which production is lRboring.

Mohave County miner., 1913-08-16

In lots of hundred tons or more, averaging 5S a ton ore will be pur- chased outright by Kavanagh. The transportation to the mill must be paid by the owner but on this grade a profit of better than 1908 a ton can be made it is believed after deducting freight and treatment charges.
 This is the beginning of a new in- dustry There will be more low grade custom plants here. It is declared on good authority that plans are being made for the construction of large plant to be located just south of Grip, pie Creek. How far the negotiations for this mill have gone cannot be said.
 Within a year, as the milling busi- ness is perfected, we expect that the camp will be dotted with low grade custom plants and that agents will go over the camp in active competition to secure 5$ ores. This is not an idle dream. It is fact. And when that day arrives there will be pros perlty. Every body will be working, taking out ore which now is called waste and making a good profit from it.
 We do not appreciate what cyanide has done to better this camp. It has been the means of making this dis trct the great gold center that it is.
 The Kavanagh plant is the original custom low grade mill of the district. time. It will take ore to keep them in operation.
 This is the beginning of new day for the Cripple Creek mining district. Cripple Creek Times.
Mohave County miner., 1913-08-16
The Day of the Low
 Grade Custom Mill.

At last the district has low grade custom mill. How it will work out remains to be seen. The time has ar rived when 5$ ore can be sold at home. Announcement to the effect that some time in August, Thomas Kavanagh will accept custom ore for the Home stake mill appears in another part of the paper. It is of great importance to the miners of the camp because it is the dawn of new era for their in .. dustry
 How often have we considered the possibility of such plant since the Portland company announced that it could treat at profit ores running 3S a ton or whereabouts.
