Here are just a few examples of
what co-operative marketing has
done and is doing for those engaged
in it. The poultrymen of this coun­
try 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 a big way and we who live in this
age must fail in line or watch the
procession go marching on to a suc­
cess in which we cannot share. If
you are not big enough to get into
the procession sing.e-handed, you
can combine your resources with
others like yourself and all march
together for the common good.
I do not mean to imply that co­
operative marketing is a King-Cure
All for every ill the poultry business
is afflicted with; neither do I wish
to give the impression that a simple
club of poultrymen is enough. A
co-operative association must be a
well managed, commercial institu­
tion. It must be big enough to be
truly reresentative of the territory
in which it operates. It must be
operated uo the princiles laid down
by the Three Musketeers of Dumas’
famous story, “Ail for one and one
for all.’’ The poultrymen must un­
derstand the managements prob­
lems and the management must un­
derstand those of the poultry-man.
There must he harmony and con­
certed action in every part or the
whole thing will collapse of its

The thjng to do is to study such
organizations as already succesful-
ly operating and adapt to your own
local needs the principles and
practices they have found successful.
Shape a course that you know you
