of poultrymen whose natural mar
ket is brown egg territory are pro-
ducing only white eggs. They know
they are not getting as good prices
as they should, but they do not
know why and have no way of find
ing out as they operate independent
ly. AS members of an effective asso-
citation, they would be given the
necessary information or, if their
total volume was large enough, their
separate lots could be pooled into
larger units and shipped economi-
cally into some territory where they
would find ready sale.
1 cannot too strongly emphasize,
however, the need for organization
in the poultry business. Labor is Or
ganized, and look where wages are
today. The fruit growers of Cali
fornia organized and boosted their
profits millions of dollars annually.
The walnut growers got together
and sell carloads where they once
sold bushels, and at higher profit,
too. The poultrymen of Canada for
med an association and realized
twelve cents a dozen more for their
eggs than they had ever been able
to get before.
Here are just few examples of
what cooperate marketing has tone
and is doing for those engaged in
it. The poultrymen of this country
must come to it also, sooner or later,
if they are ever to realize the full
profit that is rightfully theirs. This
is an age of big business done in
big way and we who live in this age
must fall in line or watch the pro-
cession go marching on to a success
in which we cannot share. If you
are not big enough to get into the
procession single-handed, you can
combine your resources with others
like yourself and all march together
for the common good.
1 do not mean to imply that CO.
operative marketing is King-Cure-
All for every ill the poultry business
is afflicted with; neither do I wish
to give the impression that simple
club of poultrymen is enough. A Co
operative association must be a well
managed, commercial institution. 1t
must be big enough to be truly rep
resentative of the territory in which
it operates. It must be operated on
the principle laid down by the Three
Musketeers Of Dumas famous story,
"All for one and one for ALL" The
must understand the
management's problems, and the
must understand those
of the poultryman. There must be
harmony and concerted action in
every part, or the whole thing will
collapse of its own weight.
The thing to do is to study such
organizations as are already sue
cessfully operating and adapt to
your own local needs the principles
and practices they have found sue
cessful. Shape a course that you
know you can depend on to get you
some place and then stick to it, but
make your plans flexible enough to
allow for really necessary changes
in the future.

Mark Twain once said of the
weather, that everybody talks about
it but nobody does anything about
it. Much the same thing might be
said about cooperative marketing
among poultry raisers. To be sure,
there are some cooperative organ1-
cations now working successfully in
several sections of the country, not
ably in California and some of the
central western states. The Co
OPS" of Canada, too, offer notable
example of what can be accom-
plished. Taking the whole situation
by and large, however, it is almost
literally true that much has been
said about cooperative marketing,
but little done about it.
To be sure, it is no simple prob
lem to get thing of this kind start
ed. That very fact, however, is
most excellent reason why some
thing should be started at once. To-
day, egg producers are in much the
same position as were the workers
of a few generations back. Without
organization of any kind, they are
at the mercy of those to whom they
must sell. John Jones with ten or
twelve dozen eggs to sell each week
must take them to the nearest mar
ket and accept the price offered or
tote them home again. A well or
ganized association shipping car
loads of eggs each week suffers no
such disadvantages.
With sufficiently large quantities
to really mean something, the asso-
citation is in position to seek out
the most favorable markets, and
can regulate shipments into those
markets in such a way that a higher
average level of prices can be main
tanned than would otherwise be pos
sible. Collective bargaining, the fac
tor that has made possible the pres
ent high wage levels for workers,
is also brought to the poultryman
through cooperative marketing.
Other advantages no less impor-
tant, though not so often considered,
are the possibilities of standardizing
and improving production methods,
standardizing and improving the
Trade of the product and stabilizing
production. It Is a well established
fact that in some sections of the
eountry only white eggs find ready
sale at top prices, while in other
sections brown eggs are the favor
ties. Let US suppose that a number
