THE GRANGE Conducted by J. W. DARROW, Chithim. N. Y Prat Corrupondent New Forfc Stat Orangt FARM BUSINESS. Methods of Farmers' Co-operative League In Germany. American Agriculturists, Particularly Grangars, May Got a Hint From 'Their German Brothers In tho Mat- tor of Co-operating That May Bo of Advantage to Them. During the latter half of the nine teenth century associations formed among the agricultural classes of Ger many did much to promote scientific farming, and In more recent years they have extended their influence with the advancement of technology. These local societies, says a recent con sular report of Consul General Tfiack ara at Berlin, have united into branch societies, circuit and district societies, which form the basis or nucleus of the two general German agricultural or ganizations of , the present time. On May 15, 1909, the Imperial Agri cultural organization, according to Its annual report, tbe last available, em braced sixty-seven circuit unions, made up of 18,333 local societies. The total membership of these societies was then 1,575,000. There were 12,584 saving and loan societies, 2,128 co-operative purchasing societies, 1,0(50 dairy societies and approximately 1,501 so cieties .devoted to various other objects. A summary of the operations for the fiscal year 1907, representing 11069 savings and loan societies of tho impe rial organization, with a total individ ual membership of 1,050,848, showed tbe following: Total suets 1373,204,209 Total liabilities 871,351,198 Loans to members on current account 88,283,070 Loam to memben for definite period , 213,197,061 Deposits of members who re ceived loans 88,204,696 Credit balance duo to members end ot 1907 4,681,256 Total receipts and expenses..... 862,178,630 Cost of administration 1,411,039 Total deposits ot savings 98,651,891 Tho General Organization. The annual report of the General Agricultural organization, made Octo ber, 1000, shows it to have a member ship of 5,172 local societies. The lat est available statistics of this group are for the year 1907. At that date there were 4,100 local societies, having a membership of 405,819 persons. The following data are given In this re port: Total assets 8116,794.891 Total liabilities 116,437,787 Outstanding loans and credits.. 71,940,027 Outstanding loans to members In 1907 17,008,451 Credit of members 4,366,538 Savings deposits end of 1907 92,832,698 Reserve fund end 1907 8,200,239 Business credit of members end 1907, participation In business..

Tbe annual report of 1007 gives the latest data of the busi ness done by this group of the impe rial organization. At this date there were twenty-seven circuit unions, com posed of 1,083 local societies, with a total membership of 210,074 persons: Assets 818,091,644 Liabilities 12,779,966 Reserve fund ... 1,136,748 Credit balance of members end of 1907 698,067 Value of merchandise purchased 22,468,776 Cost of administration 600,643 The average purchase pes person dur ing six consecutive years, beginning In the year 1902, la aa follows: $58.80, 100.93, $04.02, $88.00, $94.72, $104, re spectively. The principal articles mak ing up this amount In the following order of value were fertilizers, feed stuffs, seed, coal and .agricultural ma chinery. The working capital of the co-operative purchasing societies for this period was, during the year 1000, $10,658,704, approximately 62 per cent of the value of purchases made for the members, and for the year 1007, $12, 779,906, or about 60 per cent of the ralue of the purchases made. The sur plus shown In tbe report given amounts to $4.28 per member. It will be observed that the cost of adminis tration Is less than tbe favorable bal ance shown by the surplus and is ap proximately $3.09 for each member. A Live Connecticut Grange.
