"Could I send a message to Gln'ral

"The general and his brigade and
family sailed for another port at eight.
I f yon wish, I ’ll take your message."
8olomoo delivered to Preston a let­
ter written hy Jack to Mnrgaret. It
told of his capture and Imprisonment.
The third of March bad come. The
enn waa shining. The wind was In the
south. They were not strong enough
to walk, so Preston had brought
horses for them to ride. There were
long patches of snow on the Dorches­
ter Heights. A little beyond they met
the brigade of Putnam. It was mov­
ing toward the city and had stopped
for Its noon mess. The odor of fresh
beef and onions was In the air.
“Cat’s blood an' gunpowder!” said
Solomon. "Tie me to a tree."
"What for?" Preston usked.
“I'll kill myself satin'," the scout
declared. " I’m so got dum hungry I
kln't be trusted."
" I guess we'll have to put the brakes
on each other," Jack remarked.
“An' It’ll be steep goto'," said Solo
non.
Washington rode up to the camp
with a sqund of cavalry while they
were eating. He had a kind word for
every liberated man. To Jack he sold:
“ I am glad to address you as Colonel
Irons. You have suffered much, but
It will be a comfort for you to know
that the Information you" brought en­
abled me to hasten the departure of
the British."
Turning to Solomon, he added:
"Colonel Blnkua, I am Indebted to
yon for fnlthful, effective and valiant
service. You shall have a medal."
"Gln'ral Washing*«?!), we're a-goto*
te lick 'em/’ said Solomon. “We’re
a-goln' to break their necks."
"Colonel, you are very confident,"
the general answered with a smile.
“You'll see,” Solomon continued
“God Almighty Is sick o' tyrants
They're doomed."
“Let us hope so,” said the command
er-ln-chlef. "But let us not forget the
words of Poor Richard: ‘God helps
those who help themselves.' ”

CO-OPERATIVE
SELLING
By GLENN G. HAYES
<©, 1124, W M t a r n N « w » *a > e r U n io n )
Flow Butter and Cheese Are
Sent to Market
J -y U R Y farmers wane the world's
first co operators.
Cheese was
the first agricultural product to travel
the co-operative road to m arket But­
ter goon followed suit.
Cooperative cheese marketing had
Its start back In the latter part of the
middle ages.
Swiss dairy farmers
learned that the labor of cheeso-inok
tog was greatly reduced If sir or
seven of them formed a group nnd
each member took his turn at making
the cheese for them all. Manufacture
was the first step. Marketing came
next. Cheese rings soon discovered
that traders would pay slightly higher
premium for the larger quantities of
uniform quality cheese than they
would for Individual lots. They began
pooling their cheese, and one mem
her with ability for trading would
handle the selling of the entire lot.
Co-operative dairying was next
tried to France, then Alsace, Bavaria
and Saxony.
It was two hundred
years later that American pioneers
formed the first cheese ring. Until
1841 every farmer was his own cheese
maker, hut to that year a group of
farmers at Lake Rock, to Jefferson
county, Wisconsin, established a cheese
ring and took turns week by week
making the cheese. Immediately other
cheese rings were started to the Berk
shire hills of Massachusetts and to a
few years they were common to Con
nectlcut, New York and Wisconsin
Today there are approximately 4.00'
cheese factories of which 2.500 are In
Wisconsin.
One-fourth of these Wisconsin fac­
tories are co-operatively owned nnd
operated. The farmers deliver their
milk every day nnd It Is made tote
cheese and sold green. As the cheese
industry grew In the state, cheese
boards came Into existence where buy
era nnd seller* met to make prices
One of these boards, the Plymouth
Cheese exchange as It is called, came
to dominate all the others. Its price
established the price level for all the
cheese of Wisconsin.
Tlie farmers
came to renllxs that the Plymouth
hoard didn't always play square, am'
to 1912, 43 local co-operative iheeoe
factories revolted and came together
to form the Sheboygan County Cheese
Producers' federation for handling
their own gales. In 1917 they changed
their name to the Wisconsin Cheese
Producers' federation.
In 1921, 40
local units of Minnesota aaked to come
Into the organisation. In all, the fed
eratlon now markets the output for
175 co-operative cheese factories.

until they began to organize co-opera­

selling of butter. This first adventure
was not particularly successful—not
until after the Centennial exposition
at Philadelphia did the Danes make
a go of co-operative butter making.
The Danish commission to the expo
sltJon took home a full report of a
plan by which American co-operative
creameries In Orange and Dutchess
counties. New York, were succeeding.
In 1882 a co-operative creamery built
on the American plun wn» established

In 1850 a creamery was started
to Orange county, New York, and to
less than ten months co-operatlvc
Teamerles were to operation to sev
?ral neighboring counties. Each was
independent of the other; each fixed
Its own standards and sold Its own
product. This was the plan the Danes
copied to 1882. But they improved
upon It by federating to manufacture
a standard product.
In August, 1923, there were 1,610
cooperative creameries to the United
States and (538 of them were In th»
state of Minnesota.
These cream­
eries are simply manufacturing plants
for the making of butter. Most of
them are nonprofit, nonstock organ
zatlons. After the butter Is sold and
the expense of operation la deducted,
the proceeds are paid to the producers
to proportion to the amount of cream
delivered.
The first state to the Union to at­
tempt the Improvement of the butter
market was Minnesota. Jn 1911 the
Minnesota Co-operative Dairies' asso­
ciation was established. This Was a
commission house at New York that
was started through the fear Hint the
creameries would be driven off the
market hy centralizers. One hundred
and thirty co-operative creameries took
stock to the company. It buy* up but­
ter at the regular price and resell* It
to the eastern market. The profits are
divided on the patronage dividend
basis among the creameries and this
la redivided on the same basis among
the members of the separate cream­
eries.
to 1921 the 345 Minnesota cream
Fries came together for closer co­
operation and formed a state group,
the Minnesota Co-operative Cream
cries' association, Inc. They divided
the state Into 15 districts and each
district employed n field man or In­
spector whose chief duty I* to Improve
the quality of the butter made In the
creameries of hi* unit and to work
toward Its standardization. A small
duty Is charged on each pound of but­
ter produced during the year which
pays the overhead expenses and the
handling costa.
