Cooperative Marketing

Agriculture produces enough to
feed the people the year around but
some Of this production should be
stored to eliminate the over supply at
the times Of harvest or during periods
OF high production. 1t can then be
thrown upon the market in accord
ance with consumptive demands.
Cooperative marketing is still In its
Infancy. In q few localities where
farmers have been properly organ
lied and provided themselves with
adequate facilities to store their prod
ucts they have been able to consider
ably stabilize prices. to the advantage
OF both producer and consumer.
Farmers are looking for 4 scientific
merchandising basis upon which to
market their products. It is extremely
important that they organize rightly
on the commodity basis and secure
emcient capable management and ada.
quate financing. This cannot be done
In day, week, or a month, nor In
i've or even ten years. 1t must be- nv
gradual growth and development
The problem is so important It de.

armers but educators, bankers and
'ther business nen.-BankerF armer

should be the order of the day.


TO many this may appear the pes
simism Of the banker, but let me say
that the banker is In a position to
keep his finger on the pulse OF our
economic situation, and when there is
such consensus on the part Of many
bankers that we are passing the safe
ty point and that we are riding into
another period of imitation such opin-
ion should not be looked upon as pes
simism, but rather as the advice of
those whose business can prosper only
as there is general prosperity.
The banking situation in America is
sound and can only be harmed by un-
due credit expansion. The banker
should see that expansion does not
again gain the Roadway that led us
into trouble before, and the business
man should do everything possible to
support the banker, thus avoiding an
other period OF costly denation.

increasing the cost of the Civil War is
estimated at about $500. 900. 900, Mr.
Agger says, continuing:
Much more serious than the costs
OF unsound currency to the govern
ment are the heavy direct and indi-
| rect costs imposed upon the people.
Our productive system is controlled
through prices, and the upset of prices,
caused by depreciating currency, in
terferes with the proper harmonizing
of the different lines of production.
Price changes are not instantaneously
or uniformly effected throughout the
whole system. The result of an in
hationary movement is a stimulation
OF speculation and over-investment in
some lines, with inadequate develop
ment in other lines. The period OF
speculation seems period of prosper
ity, but how false and unsound is such
prosperity is disclosed in the stress
and agony of the inevitable period of
liquidation which, Nemesis-like. fol-
lows on the heels of the boom"
Wealth Unfairly Re-dIstributed
Mr.. Agger then describes the dis
tresstng effects Of an unsound money
on the distribution of wealth among
classes and individuals. Cheapening
money through infiationary expedi-
ents is gigantic fraud upon the cred
itor classes as against debtors. All
those dependent on fixed incomes, or
receiving specified sums in terms OF
money, are penalized when the pur-
chasing power of money is depressed
n like manner the stakeholder profits
It the expense of the bondnolder-a
act which implies a reward to the
more speculatively inclined at the Ell

Advancing prices cause discootent
nd give rise to agitation and unrest
mong those whose incomes canaot
romptly be adjusted to meet higher
wing costs. Strikes are fomented
nd production is curtailed. Every
ody shares in these burdens. Lack J
stability in money also undermines
nd weakens habits of thrift. A cor
