1.-THE Weapon And
The Bug-A-Boo.'

and another of over joO.OoO
pounds at from II to IL cents,
the lot in the first sale having
been purchased from growers
ut ga cents. and that repre-
sented by the second sale at
about . cents. should be suifici-
ent To convince any intelligent
farmer of the need for the Co
operative Marketing Assoeia-
ton. Last fall there was said
to be an over supply of up
wards Of one hundred million
pounds. and il is generally
known that something like
forty million pounds were
bought by spectators at a
price varying from % cents to
81. 90 per hundred !, Is true
that this speculative purchase
Of last fall represented the
lowest quality Of the crop.
Nevertheless. II was the over
supply. Naturally when there
IS an over production the
manufacturers buy only the
best grades.
The speculator buys tobacco
only for one reason-to sell II
II the manufacturer later on at
a profit.
This over supply. however.
drags down the price upon all
grades. and the surplus need
not be very great To make
difference Of several cents "A
hound on all the tobacco sold,
whether 90 manufacturers or
spectators.
This surplus is the "purchas-
er's weapon" and the grow
er's bug-a-boo."
Now. what will happen when
the Cooperative Marketing As
sociation becomes effective!
Cooperative Association pro-
perry managed never permit
surplus in a staple product,
like tobacco. TO slump the price
for the entire crop. The mar
ket is not permitted TO be glut-
ted. Sufficient tobacco will be
offered to take care OF the de-
mand and the rest will be held
until the market can absorb II
legitimately.
This method of handling
surplus is followed not only by
the large co-operatives in Cali
fornia. but also by manufac-
turing concerns such as the
United States Steel Corpora
ton, The Standard Oil Com
pany and the International
Harvester Company. II IL the
only sane way To conduct any
business.
II we had had an Association
last fall. there would have
been no tobacco sold at one
and two cents per pound. The
surplus would have been grad
ed and re-dryed and would
now be held by the growers
through their Organization.
and the growers themselves
would be receiving from II to
Is cents per pound for the to-
bacco recently purchased by
this manufacturer. Further.
tobacco would have brought a
decent price last fall.
Assuming that forty million
pounds are now in the hands
of spectators. who purchased
the amount at an average of
pa cents per pound. and the
manufacturers take il from the
spectators at an average of
l2h cents per pound between
now and the time this years
crop is ready for sale, there
will be represented profit to
the speculator and a loss to the
grower Of $4.000,O00.00.
This Is only one of the many
disadvantages which would be
overcome by the Association.
