In 1913 a " Danish Co-operative Coal Supply " was foru^ed 

 to supply coal and other fuel to co-operative dairy societies, 

 bacon factories, supply societies, and to other societies for 

 joint purchase of coal. Its turnover in 1914-15 was about 

 £55,000. 



Besides the co-operative societies for the sale of agricultural 

 produce such as butter, bacon and eggs, dealt with in previous 

 chapters, a few societies for the sale of other produce such as 

 potatoes, hay, and straw have been formed during the last 

 few years ; but only those undertaking the sale and export of 

 cattle are of any importance, and even these have had only a 

 very moderate support.
