profits, only for bedrock prices. They
did not lose their faith in cooperation.
Here was where their stubborn character
came in, and their European training
for cooperation is q success on the other
side of the Atlantic. Finland is honey
combed with cooperatives, and to-day
every third person in England is fed
through the cooperatives, so numerous
are the cooperative groceries. If their
venture was losing one it must be be-
cause of their bad management, argued
the Firms
Obviously, they could not sell milk so
cheaply. Obviously, too, to secure cheap
milk required most efficient management
So they raised the price little nearer
the retail price, got a more experienced
manager and started anew, assessing

to cents cheaper than the retail price,
according to the fluctuating costs of dis

profits, but even selling milk as cheaply
as they do, they clear something over
$1,000 for every 1900 quarts distributed
daily throughout the year. This they
turn back into the business.
