 piled." 



The new condition is not restricted to 

 any particular city or community, but 

 a firm engaged in business in Chicago 

 may safely ask a firm in the same busi- 

 ness located in Wichita or Fort Worth 

 for information, and the Chicago firm 

 may place absolute dependence in the 

 replies received. 



It is not the purpose of your com- 

 mittee to start something that will 

 bring on an argument which Will con- 

 sume time and accomplish nothing. Be- 

 lieve us, if you will, when we suggest 

 to you the idea of full cooperation be- 

 tween firms that sell seeds in a given 

 territory this action will accomplish 

 much for every firm concerned and will 

 open the way for many economies in 

 'loing business. 



Cooperation will show plenty of oji- 

 portunity for the selling of seeds at fair 

 prices, prices which will show a living 

 profit at the end of the year. Then, 

 too, if one firm piles up a surplus of 

 some kind of seed, by reason of the 

 style changing in that locality, some 

 other firm that has demand for that 

 kind of seed will gladly help the other 

 fellow out. 



' It seems to your committee that tlie 

 Seed business is developing as rapidly 

 as any other line of business effort, and 

 inquiry of other lines brings out the 

 fact that they are trying to strengthen 

 their position by cooperation between 

 the different finas engaged in that line 

 of work. 



The men engaged in the seed business 

 measure well in capacity, character, 

 ''onrafe, ability and common sense with
