Cooperative Marketing
Of Tobacco.

The tobacco business in Kentucky
seems to be shot 20 pieces from the
low prices realized from the 1920
crop. The production Of tobacco -
one Of the very greatest interests in
our State. Thousands Of our people
depend upon tobacco for living. and
many more thousands depend upon
j, for any surplus money they may
earn. !, il not only a biz thing for
the grower. but il is big thing for
the banks and the commercial inter-
es;s in the State.
While the tobacco growers in 1921
made no money as a whole. the tobac-
co manufacturing concerns that
bought the crop made enormous divi-
dends.
The profits IN tobacco are not fair

the manufacturer. as the latter plays

seems TO present the only hope TO
tobacco growers. II the California
cooperative marketing of prunes can
so increase the demand for prunes as
to more than double the production.
and al the same time double the
price, we can see no reason why the
same thing cannot be accomplished
with tobacco, operating in the same
way. At present the tobacco grow
er gets only eight per cent Of the
price paid by the consumer Of the
weed, when he should get at least
fifty per cent.
