Minnesota Farmers Combine of Market
Potatoes.

IUtdlOcS.
If you don't appreciate how readily
farmers may solve their own market
ing problems in large measure, a visit
to Minnesota will prove instructive.
There. in a state that has been a pio-
neer in cooperative enterprise, you
will find the Minnesota Potato Ex-
change. Now, the potato exchange is
an infant as far as age is concerned,
but potentially it's a young giant, elo-
quent of the new-found power of the
farmers, through organized effort. Per-
ihaps no group of farmers, to anticipate
this story somewhat, has been able to
get such ~far-reaching results in a short
time. And no ~new-fangled laws were
necessary.
Launched by a small group of far
ners in the winter and spring of 1920,
the Minnesota Potato Exchange came
into existence on the jump. 1t had the
pledges of thirty local shipping asocia-
tions of potato growers-not a very
projections number-and that was
about all, except a conviction that the
growers could save money by shipping
and marketing their own crops.
In six months seventy additional
local shipping associations of potato
growers in all sections of the state
had been organized and affiliated with
the central exchange. Five thousand
potato growers had pledged their
crops to the new venture in farmer
marketing.
Meeting in Wadena, Minnesota, July
II to q, 1920, the growers perfected
a permanent organization. and when
their crop was almost ready for the
market, went about the task of setting
up the machinery to market it. Just
then, they were not very many jumps
ahead of the game. First thing, they
had to have a manager. Looking about
for a man who knew the problems of
the farmers, they employed A. w.
Aamodt, county agent of Beltrami
county. This was on July 81. Aamodt
took the first train for Michigan, and
spent a week studying the system of
the Michigan Potato Exchange.
Returning to Minneapolis he opened
state headquarters of the exchange on
August l. And there were few Jumps
to spare. One week later, the first of
the Minnesota potato crop, shipper and
sold by the producers, was going thru
the exchange. And producer-marketed
potatoes have been going to market in
rapidly increasing volume ever since in
Minnesota.
Early in January, more than 81 ,7OO,-
600 worth of potatoes, had been mar
~ducerketed through the exchange, and
officials of the new organization, sur
veying the amounts pledged by the To-
cal associations, estimated that the
years business would reach 81, 900, 900
NOT so bad for the first season.

Where Cooperation Starts
at High Speed
BY EARL

Approximately one-fourth of the
Minnesota crop is being marketed thru
the exchange. By January, more than
1000 cars of potatoes had been sold
through it, and thousands of dollars
had been saved to the producers. Prices
paid farmers were ranging from 10 to
80 cents a hundred pounds higher than
private shippers were paying, while
there was no way of estimating the eX-
tent to which competition of the far
mers organizations had forced prices
of the private buyers in most of the
potato centers. Next year, there will
be fully $50 local associations of grow
ers in the exchange,
That's how fast cooperative projects
get under way in Minnesota.
incidentally, Minnesota commands
attention when it m to co-opera-
tive marketing. Product marketed by
the various cooperative enterprises in
the state run from $4,000 900 to
5000, 600, LOCO a year in value. A. D.
Wilson, director of the extension d.
vision of the Minnesota College of Ag-
riculture, is authority for that state
ment. He placed the value of live
stock marketed through cooperative
aSoSlStiOllS dC ptU,UOU,UOO a
year, and the annual business of CO.
operative creameries at $50, 900, 900 a
year.
John d. Black, of the division of re-
search in agricultural economics at the
college of agriculture, who has made a
survey of the cooperative organiza-
lions of the farmers in the state re-
Gently, put the number at 1888. Of
this number 1,747 are marketing as
sociations purely; 100 are producers
associations; 335 are buying organiza-
tons; ITO financial, and the rest are
miscellaneous.
In 1919, Mr.. Black reported, Coop
~erative stock shipping associations han
died 1915 per cent of the live stock
shipped to the South St. Paul market
from Minnesota farms. w. A. Nc
Kerrow, secretary of the Minnesota
Central Cooperative Farmers Live
Stock Shipping Association, says there
are now $50 such local associations in
the state, and hat they are handling
fully SO pei cent OF the livestock ship
ped to South St. Paul from Minnesota
farms.
Of these cooperative enterprises,
Mr.. Black discovered furth:
There were APT elevators, shipping
80 per cent of the grain shipped in the
crop year 1888.
There are 668 creameries which
made SO per cen of the butter in Min
nesota in 1918.
In other words, cooperative market
ing is in the air in Minnesota. SO it
was no great wonder that the potato
growers caught the fever. But selling
potatoes was different from selling
wheat or livestock. There was no

associations was formed, was getting

some town or county official, letter
stating that they grew the products,
which they offer for sale, on their own
