With cooperative marketing the
farmer takes charge of and controls
the sale and distribution of the prod
ucts made in the sweat of his own
brow. Without CO. cooperative marketing
he doe not control the sale or distrIbu-
lion. With cooperative marketing the
selling agents are employed by US,
responsible to us. and must work for
our interests. Without operative
marketing they are not employed by
US, are not responsible to US, and will
work for their own interests.
Whenever anybody makes an argu-
ment against cooperative marketing
in your presence, always bring him
back to this fundamental consideration
Ask him whether the farmer should
really control the selling of his own
products. Ask him whether our selling
agents should be under the control
of the farmer by talking about possible
blunders that may be made, make him
admit that he is insulting farmers by
insinuating that they haven't inteln-
gence enough to run their own business
through experts selected by them and
responsible to them.
And if someone says that we must
pay the salaries of men who sell our
crops for us, remember that we are
already paying the salaries of all the
army of men who are buying and sell
ling our crops. We are now paying
their salaries and paying them to see
how much they can make out of US.
With cooperative marketing we viii
be paying the salaries of smaller
number of men. and paying them 10 see

cooperative marketing Is going to
make some mistakes. 1t will not do
everything we wish it to DO. 1t will
adopt some policies which some of us
as individuals will think Objectionable.
But let us ask ourselves: Did not
the old system of selling also make
mistakes? Did it not also fail to do
all that we wished it to do? Did it not
also adopt Objectionable policies?"
The difference is that when cooper
ative marketing makes a mistake.
adopts an Objectionable policy, or falls
short Of what we had expected, we can
take the matter of correction and adj
justment in our own hands. In the
other cases we are helpless.
Let us keep emphasizing the fact
that we are simply in a fight to make
ourselves master Of our own industry
This is the real meaning of co-opera-
tive marketing. All the falsehoods,
sophistries, misrepresentation, and
special pleadings of the opposition can
not blind any sensible man to this fact.

Governor HardwiclS has given Georgia
the honor Of having the first woman
senator, by appointing Mrs. FELTON, to
the position. Those who are not familiar
with the life of this estimable woman
may think the Georgia governor was
merely attempting to compliment the
women by appointing her to the short
term.
This Grand Old Woman Of Georgia"
as she is affectionately called by the
people there, may be old in years, but
she has a most alert mind and keeps
abreast of the times as few people do.
