ERY, THE BED ROCK OF
THE DAIRY BUSINESS.
By Mrs. Annie I. Hughes.
In Western Stock Journal.
In summing up the advantages of
the co-operative creamery and why
farmers should stand by these or
ganizations instead of patronizing
the large centralizers or creameries
owned by private individuals, tho
following are taken into consider
ation. First. It insures every cent of
profit to the farmers.
Second. It encourages better
quality iu the output.
Third. 1 1 encourages better
methods on the farm.
Fourth. It encourages the build
ing up of the home industries.
Fifth. It teaches the farmer that
they are business men.
Sixth. It makes a better locality
in which to live.
It has been said that a smooth
tongued stranger with authority to
offer one-fourth cent more than the
market quotation can put any co-operative
creamery out of business.
When the machinery of the cream
ery is lying rusting in the scrap heap
and the centrali.or or creamery own
ed by private individuals lias full
swing, then the farmer will awaken
and see the folly of his ways.
When there is no competition
from the co-operative organizations
then prices will bo regulated to the
Ueast figure that the . farmers will
'stand and stay in tho business. It
is not to be wondered at that the big
business concerns consider the far
mers good plucking, for they have
guessed right.
Dairymen must protect themselves
by organization as well as other
branches of business. Many con
sider the price of making but do not
think of the over run being added to
the butter fat which is from one
sixth to one-fifth more added to the
butter fat for butter. Therefore,
the producer will receive all the re
turns for his cream except the actual
cost of making and getting tho but
ter on the market.
It has been said that the co-oper-ativo
ts the citadel of dairing. If
all of the co-operatives should cease
business, then the centralizers would
put their heads together and fix but
ter fat prices each month. Their
motto is "Divide and Conquer.". If
you can divide the fanners then you
can handle them to your heart's con
tent. They use the farmer for a
weapon against himself.
If you own stock in a co-operative
creamery value it and think that
your co-operative organization helps
to keep you on an even footing with
the other fellow.
