Pig. 20.— Whereas in 1913 over 42 per cent of the total agricultural cooperative business in the United 
States was transacted by grain-marketing associations, 18.9 per cent was handled by such organizations 
in 1922. Gains in relative importance were made during the 10-year period by the associations handling 
dairy products, cotton, and tobacco. (See Table 25.)
