SOMETIMES MORE
TRUTH THAN POETRY

A reader hands US an essay on
"Man," clipped from an old newspa-
per. Maybe you've read it-if 20 it's
worth reading again. If you haven't
read It. do 80 and pass it on to one Of
your neighbors:
"Man comes into this world without
his consent and leaves it without his
will. N infancy he il an angel; in
boyhood he's devil; in manhood ev-
erything from lizard up. II he rails
es family he's chump. and If he
raises check he's a thief, and then
the law raises Cain with him. If he
is poor man he's a bad manager and
has no sense, but if he is rich he is
considered smart financier. II he's
in politics you can't place him. II he
goes to church he's a hypocrite and If
he stays away he's a sinner. When
he first comes into the world every
body wants to kiss him; before he
goes out everybody wants to kick him.
If he dies young there was always q
great future before him; if he lives to
a ripe old age he's in the way and on
ly living to save funeral expenses.
This life is funny road-but every
body seems glad of the chance to trav-
ell it in preference to taking chances
on another one."

OBJECTIONS TO COOP
mATIVE MOVES
By BRUCE LABlPsON

off Is the man who had rheumatism
and St. vitus dance at the same time.
He usually doesn't know where he il
at.
Cooperative marketing takes the
chance out Of selling grain. Az soon
as q farmer has signed . cooperative
marketing agreement, he knows that
he il going to get at least the aver
age price for his grain. True, he does
not get but rs per cent Of his money
right away, but most people need the
money in February and March Just a.
much rs they do any other time.
Not only does the cooperative SELL
,er know that he il going to got his
high average price, but he also knows
that he is helping stabilize the Wholer
grain market. Only one-twelfth Of
his grain is being sold each month of
the year. The whole average price of
wheat is going to be raised, partly
through his efforts.
The system works. It is working
right now in the marketing Of almost
every other commercial article you
buy. It is working for fruit raisers,
and tobacco growers, and cotton rails
ers. It has worked for three years
for the wheat growers Of the Pacific
coast. It will work for Colorado.
Get into the pool! Hold the price
up instead Of selling against the pool
and pulling the price down.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1923-10-04

Why cooperate at all?
Why bind oneself in . cooperative
marketing agreement with . lot Of
other farmers, and not know until =
year afterwards what you get for your
grain! What can . farmer get out
Of cooperation that he can't get by
selling his product individually!
These are three perfectly natural
question. that are asked time and
again whenever the subject Of COOP
erative marketing is brought up. It
is sometimes hard for . person to be-
lieve that he is better off selling CO.
operatively At the high average price
for the year, than selling individual
ly when the market hits the high
spot.
But there are two big factors
against the farmer who holds for .
high market.
In the first place, he is competing
against other farmers who have the
same product to sell. Perhaps the
others are more anxious to sell than
he is and will take less. As the Jew
ish merchant said, Competition may
be the life Of trade, but it knocks
thunder out Of the prices" When
there are lots of sellers, the man who
demands the least is the one who sets
the price for the others. When there
is one seller only a. under the COOP
serative plan, the buyer has to pay the
price.
That is the principal trouble with
the old-fashioned way of marketing.
Unless you want to sell cheaper than
kn 81
about the price. A farmer can name
his price only as long as he lowers it.
This is the first factor against the
independent seller. The second fac
tor against him is the odds against
his gamble. Most of us are gamblers
at heart, and the farmer who gam
bles on the weather and the conditions
that affect his crop might be pardon
ed for gambling on the market too,
if it were necessary. But under CO.
operative marketing it is not neces-
sary.
OF course, the average man thinks
he can figure out the market a little
better than anyone else. But you re-
member the definition of an average
man-"An average man is one who
thinks he is little above the aver
age"
The farmer who holds for the high
market is helping the other farmers
to a certain extent by keeping his
grain out Of the fall market, but he
is gambling on whether or not he is
helping himself. Under the coopera-
tive plan, by the orderly marketing
of one-twelfth of the grain every
month of the year, this farmer would
get the benefit of the holding with
none Of the danger.
These two points: The uselessness
of competing with other farmers, and
the foolishness Of trying to outguess
the grain gamblers, are answers to
the questions. "Why cooperate?" and
"Why not hold individually
The farmer who tries to beat the
game under the old system is as bad
