In MemOriam.

Died-At Irondale, Mo-, Monday,
September 81, 1914, at 1880 A. II, Mrs.
Susie May McCarron, after long ILL.,
ness, aged 20 years, 10 months and 20
days.
The subject of this brief memorial
was the daughter of Nh. and Mrs. s..
7. Middleton, and a native of Iron
County. About six years ago she was
united in marriage to Mr.. John Nc
Carron of Irondale, where they resid-
ed until her decease. To this union
a son was born five years ago, and he
survives his mother.
The funeral was held from the M.
E. Church Of Irondale, on the 23d, and
the remains were inferred in the
cemetery at that place, Rev. Taylor
conducting the services.
A dutiful daughter, and loving wife
and mother, her passing brings grief
that for the present will not be as
suaged. Her presence is no longer
known to earth and only the memory
of her virtues remain to comfort and
bless the bereaved relatives. To them
the REGISTER extends its sincere
sympathy, and trusts that Time may
bring healing to the wounds Death
has inflicted.

Is the fact that the experience of

cooperative law. The 200 co-opera-

under the 1911 law, include fruit
growers In Monroe, Bayfield, and Door
counties, livestock breeders In north
western Wisconsin and potato grow
ers in various parts OF the state,
There are also cooperative stores and
cooperative laundries.
The cooperative law permits any
NUMBER or persons, not less than i've,
to form a company or association for
the purpose of conducting any agri-
cultural, dairy, mining, manufacturing
or other mercantile business on the
cooperative plan. No stakeholder
is permitted to hold shares ag-
gregating q greater par value than
1000 and no stockholder is entitled
to more than one vote. Stockholders
are permitted to vote by mail. The
directors shall apportion the earnings
by first paying dividends on the paid
up stock not exceeding six per cent
and then there must be set aside not
less than ten per cent of the net prof
its for q reserve fund until the reserve
fund equals 80 per cent Of paid up
capital stock. Five per cent Of the
net profits shall be set aside for an
educational fund to be used in teach
ing cooperation.
The Milk In the Cocoanut.
The remainder of the net profits
shall be apportioned by Uniform divi-

If the association is a producing or,
ganization, or upon the purchases Of
shareholders, If the association Is a
selling organization, and, In either
case, the uniform dividend shall be.
paid also upon the wages and salaries
of employees. One-half of the uniform
dividend shall be paid upon the del
liveries of raw material or purchases
by the non-share-holders which pay
ment may be credited to the account
of such non-share-holders on account
of capital stock or the association.

COOPERATION AIDS
FARMERS OF STATE
MORE THAN 200 ASSOCIATIONS
OPERATING IN WISCONSIN
UNDER LAW OF 1911.
PUBLIC AFFAIRS BOARD
BUSHES ORGANIZATION
Cheese, Butter and Fruit Men Find
New Plan for Dividing Profits to Be
Highly Satisfactory -"one-Man-On
Vote"

Two hundred cooperative compan-
since July l, 1911, according to the
State Board of Public Affairs. These
have been organized for the most part
by farmers engaged in the production
Of cheese and butter. Experience
shows that they have enabled the far
mers to successfully eliminate the
middle man. The profits of these CO
operative associations are divided at
the end of the year on the basis Of
the amount of milk delivered to the
cheese factory or creamery, and the
affairs of these concerns are directed
and controlled on the basis OF zone
vote for each stakeholder and not
more than one for any stakeholder"
zone Man, One Vote"
Zone man. one vote" Is a new busi-
hess principle in Wisconsin. Until
1911, when the legislature passed the
cooperative law, every company, Co
partnership or corporation, was sub
ject to control by the principle of lone
share of stock, one vote" The man
Who had one share of stock had one
vote, and the man who had twenty
shares had twenty votes" Today, in
companies organized under the CO.
operative law, every man who has
stock, whether one share or twenty,
has one vote, and only one.
The eagerness with which farmers
who are engaged in some phase of
dairying have taken advantage of the
new law may be accounted for by the
as a weapon which the state has fur
nished them with which they can suc-
cessfully fight trusts and combina-
tons which heretofore have fixed

prices and controlled also the supply
and demand of butter and cheese.
One instance of a successful fight
through cooperative methods against
a powerful combination Is found in the
now famous Sheboygan county cheese
case
Full Profit on Milk
But some farmers did not at first
understand the principle or recognize
the benefits. The Board of Public
Affairs has been called upon many
times to assist in organizing associa-
tons, because the promoters found
that many farmers and some lawyers
did not understand the cooperative
principle. It was the division of prof
its according to patronage or contri-
button that puzzled them. The Board
of Public Affairs, which has among
other duties that Of encouraging the
development of the states resources,
was asked by the Sheboygan county
cheese producers to help them organ.
ize cooperative associations.
The board demonstrated to the
cheese producers that the amount of
money made by a creamery or cheese
factory depends entirely upon the
amount of milk received from the pa
irons He made II clear that the man
who delivers the milk Of twenty cows
to the factory contributes twice as
much to the profits as the man who
delivers the milk of ten COWS leach
cow giving approximately the same
amount) and that 1t follows that the
man with twenty cows should receive
twice as much of the undivided pro-
fits remaining at the end of the year
as the man with ten cows.
What Sheboygan Farmers Did.
Under the old law, a company de-
string to conduct a creamery or
cheese factory business would have
been organized on the basis of zone
share of stock, one VOTE" and a di-
vision of profits as dividends on
stock, regardless Of the amount of
milk delivered. If the man who had
twenty COWS happened to have but
one share of stock, while the man who
had only ten cows had ten shares of
stock, the profits of the creamery or
cheese factory at the close of the
year, under the old plan, would have
been divided on the basis of one dol
lar for the man with twenty cows to
ten dollars for the man with ten COWS.
or profit of five cents COW for
one man to one dollar COW for the
other.
That illustration made clear to the
farmers of Sheboygan county the act
