Co Operative Companies.

over 1900 successful farmers CO.
operative companies are in Wiscon-
sin, and the number is constantly
growing. More than 600 of these
are operating cheese factories, or
creameries, 80 are engaged in the
marketing of grain, fruit or live
stock, 200 handle insurance. and some
of the others own and operate rural
telephone lines.
The methods employed by many of
these concerns to increase their pa
irons incomes, and pave the way for
even greater cooperative prosperity
are described by B. H. Hibbard of the
College of Agriculture, University of
Wisconsin, in his latest bulletin en-
titled, Agricultural Cooperation"
which is now ready for free distribu-
ton to residents of the state.
Whenever the farmers in any COM
munity produce any product of High
quality in sufficient quantity to more
than supply the local market, there is
generally opportunity for the success
full handling of that commodity
through cooperative effort.
In order to make cooperation sue
cessful, however, Mr.. Hubbard has
found that the company must have
honest, able and unselfish leadership,
the intelligent cooperation of the
members, fair representation of the
interests of all concerned, efficient
business organization, and an ade-
quate system of accounting and audit
| ing.
To insure complete success the
| manager must be entirely efficient,
| energetic, and trustworthy, and must
have a thorough knowledge of the
product he is required to handle, and
the markets, and marketing machin-
| cry with which he had to deal

cleansed, even if they need to be en-
larged to reach every crevice.
2. Paint the wound and surrounding

4. Consult physician upon the advis-

The fact is that about three f0urths OF
the printers Of the country are living off
their interest and depreciation. Ii a
newspaper publisher has $1,000 in the
bank at the close Of the year, on an in
vestment Of 5000 he may call that SO
much. profit. But if he figures six per
cent interest ON his investment and, say,
no more than ten per cent depreciation,
his fancied profits reduced by exactly IL
per cent of $1,000, or $500. His net pro-
fit therefore is actually $500. "Bnt"
somebody says, IF that is the case, how
do these printers stay in business? How
do they keep On. year after year and
make liying?" Well as we heard one
man say-that is secret. Nearly al
ways it is family secret. 1t is either
the salary from the post office or selling
automobiles or fire insurance or calling
on friend. wife's relatives or getting
help from father. Then they don't all stay
in business, either, as the weekly roll of
suspensions and consultations appear
ing in the trade journals will show.
The time has come when the pointer
without cost system has about as much
show in the race Of life as one armed
fireman in a hose coupling contest. Just
as indispensable is set of books care
fully kept. One is no good without the
other. The country publisher of the
future will either be crOwed onto farm
OF into the ministry or he will:
l. Keep cost system that is standard
and reliable.
2. Base his charges on proven hour
costs and refuse all wook that does not
show profit under those costs.
3. Charge at least $3.50 year for his
newspaper and stop every paper at ex-
piration Of subscription.
