From this initial shipment, co-opera-
tive marketing spread rapidly. Pro
gresslve farmers readily see that such
marketing enables them TO get the
highest price for these goods. Coop

stock, in direct competition with the

operative wool sales were held last
spring, aggregating 4S,0T5 pounds.
This wool sold for prices ranging from
PC to 5S1sc per pound, depending on
quality. This was more than many
local markets afforded. Many local
markets did not offer for clear wool
from Individual farmers more than Ace
ia pound These sales resulted in
farmers receiving $3,34O24'more for
their wool by cooperative marketing.
From a business Of S35,S6S.57 done
by one association in 1918 such mar
ketipg has developed to the point that
frols January |, 1919 to July 81, 1919,
the various associations collectively
in all products marketed cooperative
~ sold more than S325,000 worth OF
produce for their members. This Is u
healthy growth of the movement in
one year and is due to the fact that
these associations increased the re
turns of the farmers $22,TJ0.
II is significant also that where such
marketing has been started, il is in
variably followed by increased produc
tion and especially better grade OF
livestock. thus adding TO the prosper
ity of the farmers and the county.

have also assumed largely the burden
Of getting such associations started
successfully.
At the present time cooperative
marketing is being carried on very
successfully in twelve counties in the
state and quite a number more are
preparing to initiate the movement
this fail with hogs, at the same time.
In those counties in which cO-opera-
tive marketing has been started, the
shipments have rapidly increased after
the initial shipment. thus showing that
such marketing enables farmers TO gel
the higher prices. OF course 1t is TO
be expected that there will be one or
two In county marketing thru
such an association that will not be
satisfied and complain that they did
not get enough for their. product.
Most Of the critics are like a farmer in
one county where cooperative market
ing was recently begun unders the
guidance OF the county agent. This
farmer brought in boar for slfp-
ment. The county agent advised him
that 1t would not pay to ship the boar
and that he should keep ii at home,
cut II and then Mt later date ship II
as a stag, in which way ii would bring
more money. The farmer insisted that
the boar was no account and wanted
to get rid oft.
True TO the advice of the county
agent the boar only Melted $50. The
farmer was dissatisfied and said that
cooperative shipping did not pay. In
other words, nc Kicked and found
fault with cooperative marketing
rather than with himself. The other
twenty-five farmers were enthusiastic
about the results, inasmueh as the
shipment netted the farmers $3.50 more
than the local market Accordingly
they called on the county agent to
help them get up another car of hogs
the following week. While the car
was being loaded the farmer that
had the boar in the previous shipment
came around with twelve hogs TO put
in the car.
