OZARK FARMERS COOPERATE
Theory That II Is Not Possible to Get
Producers to Work Together 10
Clearly DlsproVed.

Many men who try to discourage
cooperation among Kansas farmers
advance the old, time-worn theory
that they will not hang together
writes F. 3. Nichols in Interstate
Farmer. Sometimes 1t is admitted that
the farmers in one community may be
organized, but that it is not possible
to get the producers in several COM
munties to work together All OF
these contentious have been disproved
by the Ozark Fruit Growers associa-
tion Of Monett, Mo, which Is the larg'
est company of its kind in the Middle
West 1t handled the fruit from AZ
loading stations last year. The fruit
from but 27 stations was handled In
1912, which indicates a good, healthy
growth.
These loading stations have their
local associations, and the local asso.
Citations are banded together to form
the central association. Two per cent
Of the gross sales are taken to pay the
expenses Of the central association.
With this system, the local manager
has only to see that the cars are prop
erly loaded, and to turn over the
money he receives from the central
association to the members, The fine
advantage Of this system rs that the
sales are handled by the manager, p.
A, Rogers, who is a specialist in this
work, And then, too, the fruit from
one station does not come into com
petition with that from the other as.
sociations.
With this system, It is possible for
the local company to run with low
operating expense; It frequently Is as
low as 1 per cent, The selling ex.
pense can be divided among the 43
loading stations in this way, j is
possible for the big association to
build up a much more efficient selling
force too For example, last year the
Ozark association had 20 representa-,
tiyes on the leading markets Of the
country, to watch the movement Of
the cars in their territory These were
local men, 80 the manager knew they
could be trusted They stayed away
on this work for about six weeks.
The Ozark Fruit Growers associa'
tlon is organized as a joint stock com,
pany, When a local shipping associa'
tion comes into the central association
It must buy ten shares Of the stock;
these shares cost 81 apiece, and diyI.

stockholders meet in January elect Of.
Gcers, and attend to the other regular

died by the manager. There usually

and as a rule about 80 per cent Of the
berries are sold before the cars are
