to the producers. By cooperation we are 
able to finance and conduct a publication 
which keeps our members constantly in¬ 
formed of market conditions and also 
furnishes us a medium through which we 
can give advice to producers regarding 
production problems that help producers 
in keeping down costs. 
Cooperation also gives us the means of 
studying and interpreting the laws of 
supply and demand, in order that we can 
obey these laws, and thereby receive their 
blessings and escape many of the punish¬ 
ments. We believe that the laws of supply 
and demand must be enforced as well as 
any other laws, and an organization of 
producers of any commodity is the agency 
which should obey and enforce the laws of 
supply and demand in that commodity. 
We consider that we are also charged 
with another great responsibility which is 
to see that the members of our Association 
receive payments for their milk at all 
times. Previous to the use of our contract 
system, there were in the industry many 
milk distributors who were either dis¬ 
honest or inefficient, and as a result of their 
existence, dairy farmers in our State were 
in constant danger of suffering losses 
through dealers who did not pay their 
bills. By cooperation we have been able 
to eliminate this class of dealers from the 
industry, and up to the present time not a 
dollar has been lost by a member of our 
Association whose milk we have sold 
under contract. 
Cooperation for us has developed a 
more friendly relationship among pro¬ 
ducers in our rural communities, by the 
elinination of jealousies and ill-feeling 
among farmers, than has ever existed. 
of their products, at the same time 
developing for them opportunities for 
success by individual efficiency in the 
management of their herds and the pro¬ 
duction of crops for the fulfillment of their 
contracts, which they have voluntarily 
entered into. 
By cooperation we have been able to 
obtain funds which we use in advertising 
the food value of milk and in advertising 
the quality of the milk which we produce. 
We know that good milk is the most 
necessary, most valuable and most 
economical food that is consumed by the 
human race. We know that the consum¬ 
ing public are not using enough of this 
important food for their own welfare. We 
feel that milk producers and distributors 
are largely responsible for the under¬ 
consumption of dairy products, and 
Connecticut milk producers who are 
affiliated with our organization are 
endeavoring to fulfill their obligation to 
the public through our advertising and 
educational program. 
We have also learned by experience 
and observation that cooperative market¬ 
ing can be of little value to the producers 
of milk unless the responsibility of market¬ 
ing milk in a given area or market is con¬ 
centrated into a single, efficient and purely 
cooperative organization. Competition 
between groups of milk producers in any 
market brings waste, inefficiency and 
discontent with unnecessary losses to 
producers and distributors and brings no 
ultimate gain to consumers. 
Cooperative marketing has accom¬ 
plished so much for Connecticut dairy 
farmers that there are no logical argu¬ 
ments against it and there is little if any 
danger of the Connecticut dairyman ever 
going back to the ruinous conditions that 
threatened the agriculture of Connecticut 
seven years ago.

toward him and pointing to a picture of 
the basket ball team that had not been 
defeated the previous season.” 
“I’ll leave this catalog with you,” an¬ 
nounced the director, as we picked up our 
brief cases. “We would like to enroll 
you, Henry. I know that you would 
never regret it. We hear grown men re¬ 
gretting many things they have done, but 
did you ever hear of one regretting that 
he had gone to school too long? I hope, 
Mr. Wilkinson, that you and Mrs. Wilkin¬ 
son will think the matter over carefully. 
We feel that farm boys like Henry ought 
to think twice before deciding to cast 
aside all the valuable farm experience 
which they have had up to the age of 
17, to get into a city occupation. Present 
indications seem to point to a condition 
in the near future when farmers will be 
better off and the average workers in 
city will be less well off. We’re interested 
in helping Henry help himself.” 
“Quite right,” I said as we shook their 
hands in parting, “the question of choos¬ 
ing a vocation is one that each one must 
decide for himself. It is one of the most 
difficult problems a young man faces, for 
his future success and happiness hinge 
in a real sense on a wise choice. If Henry 
finally makes up his mind that he wants 
to follow a farming occupation, he can’t 
afford not to get ready for it.” 
As we stepped into the flivver and 
started down the drive, the director 
stopped long enough to suggest, “Harold 
Sanderson, over the other side of town, 
has already sent in his application for 
this fall. You fellows might find it to 
your advantage to room together in case 
you should decide to come.” 
“Thanks for calling,” shouted Mr. 
Wilkinson as we drove on, “drop in 
again when you’re over this way.” 
The last week in August the director 
received_Henry’s application with a letter 
asking him to help him get a job to defray 
part of his expenses.
