TWO CARS OF GRAIN.

In II Connecticut town, recently
two cars Of grain were being un-
loaded on the siding; one by the
cooperative association, and the
other by the local dealer
The farmers unloading from the
cooperative association car were
paying for identically the same
brand of grain, seven dollars per
ton less than the farmers unload
ing from the dealers ear. The
only difference Was that the farm
er6 paid cash to the cooperative
association and from the dealer
they secured thirty days credit.
The farmers paid seven dollars for
the use of sixty dollars for one
month. This was interest at the
rate of twelve,per cent per month
or one hundred and forty-four per
cent per year.
Instances Of this kind are inter-
esting in that they help explain
the growth of farmers cooperative
enterprises in some sections.
