MORE, Seaforth FIHONE 160 r 3 PAGE FIVE URGES 'CO-OPERATION Editor The Seaforth 'News. ' Dear Sir,—In this bourgeois capital- istic 'democracy that we have in 'Can- ada !there has been a colossal concen- tration of wealth and 'power since the close of the Great War. This 'concen- tration of ,power has meant monopoly or near monopoly control of a variety of manufactured goods needed in the agricultural Industry. \Otte of the obvious results of monopoly con- trol as a rigidity of prices that is inim- ical to the Ib'est interests of agricu4- ture. The most practical, effective and de- mocretic way for agricultural eonsum ers to pr'o'tect themselves against large private oorporations,that nay capital that knows no 'bounds,, thalt have highly paid officiate, but have large depreciation reserves, and also arbitrarily fixed prices, is to organize !consumer ao-operatives on the funda- mentally sound 'Rochdale !principles. When a-naum'ber of co-operatives are formed and in operation they can then pool their resources in order Ito get into the processing and manufac- turing as well as the distribution of goods. Producer and consumer ,co-opera- tion has lifted the people of •Denmark 'from a poverty stricken !peasant class until now they are the most prosper- ous and probably the most intelligent rural people in the world. The co-op- erative movement is doing wonderful 'things to Sweden and :Gt. Britain and is going ahead by leaps and bounds in United States. Realizing the value of co-operation and ;its possibilities. a few farmers around Seaforth are trying to carry an a farmers 'club. These men are all 'busy !farmers abut are giving .their trine. •cons'ideration and financial re- sponsibility for the welfare of this club. They are firm in their convic- tion onvict tion that any farmer who does not patronize the club is not 'working in his own best interests. :During the spring season the club will be mixing fertilizers and will render an effielent and courteous .service for the farmers of the Seaforth district. Since the United 'Farmers' Co-oper ative 'Company has sponsored fertil izer mixing stations like the one car reed on by the Seaforth !Farriers' Clu it has been the policy of some larg fertilizer companies to get as many farmer agents as possible to handl their goads. It is a fact that two ag ents ;for the +sante company are some tines located only a utile and a quart er apart. These local agents .are mat orally eager to make a few dollars an in order to do that they feel that i their business to extoll the value o their product, In the event, 'however, that sone farmers are skeptical about using •clu! mixed 'fertilizers 'the management 1 ,planning to have on hand- a supply ready mixed fertilizer manufacture by a leading fertilizer company. Thi will be sold at the regular price bat the 'beauty of purchasing ;from th club 'is that !the purchaser will ge some patronage dividend. The amoun will depend upon the earnings of th clot. All purchasers of club fertilize should realize that they are partner in this !business venture. The director d are eager to make it •clear that thi dub is a non ;profitorganiaation an that an audited report of the 29 'business will be given at an annu meeting and at that annual meetin the purchasers of fertilizer will vot on the election of directors and they Eby play their pant in directing the •po icy followed by the club. Is there any reason why this it est endeavour to improve the ecor omic position of the farmer should n be supported by the farmers the selves? Will all sane intelligent fara ers lcind'ly.:give some thought to th. idea of to -operation. The directors would appreoiate it if you would t and anticipate your spring fertiliz requirements and place your ord with your nearest director. If y farmers do your part an otganizati cat! be 'developed at Seaforth that w play an important role in staking richer, fuller, happier and more pro :perous community life. .
