Advertise the Purebreds 
W. E. Farver 
r INHERE lives near us a Guernsey 
A breeder of more than statewide promi¬ 
nence. He remarked not long ago that 
“when starting in the purebred business, 
figure the business at home nothing.” 
This set me thinking. At first I really 
thought he was making a rather far¬ 
fetched remark, but after giving the 
matter due consideration, I have foimd 
it to be true. Whether you are successful 
in any line of purebred stock or any given 
line of business, depends upon our “tell¬ 
ing the world” about it. A farmer’s 
acquaintance is usually limited to his 
neighbors and relatives. Rarely does one 
find among one’s own circle of neighbors 
and relatives one of the same trend of 
mine or one interested in the same line 
of venture. This means few sales at 
home if your venture is purebred stock. 
A few may be prospective customers at 
times, but it is necessary to break out 
beyond one’s personal acquaintances to 
obtain enough buyers to handle our total 
’ output. I am not going to tell what 
to do and how to do it—this advertising 
business—but I am going to relate some 
actual instances that really happened. 
These will show what to do under similar 
circumstances, and will do more good 
than whole pages of theorizing on the 
subject. 
A local farmer has been raising pure¬ 
bred poultry for several years. There 
was little demand for his eggs at home. 
He hardly felt that his flock was good 
enough to sell eggs to distant customers 
when his neighbors did not care for them. 
However, he knew that his stock was 
first-class and he was finally led to 
{Continued on jpage 330 ) 
End of the New England Price War 
in Sight 
{Continued from page 317) 
proposed program. The only obstructor, 
aside from Mr. Adams, was a “gentleman 
farmer” who wanted the farmers to get 
together as such, find out what they 
want, and then confer with leaders of the 
farmer organizations; but he was so 
clearly not a “dirt farmer” that his idea 
entirely failed to get a grip. 
The upshot was a resolution, passed by 
an overwhelming majority, calling for 
“action toward the establishment of a 
common marketing agency covering New 
England, on the basis of equalizing re¬ 
turns to all”; the wording being purposely 
bjoad, to allow wide latitude in formulat¬ 
ing Jthe final plan. A committee was 
elected to study the question and set in 
motion further action, with a membership 
as follows: President Little and Manager 
Richard Pattee of Nempa; Manager 
Bradford of Turner Center; Stoddard 
Bates of the Vermont Federated Cream¬ 
eries; M. C. Divol of the Bellows Falls 
Cooperative Creamery; S. T. Connor, 
representing the farmer distributors; John 
S. Murdoch, representing the farmer- 
producing bodies, and Messrs. Frank 
Washburn, E. S. Brigham, and L. A. 
Carlisle, the State Agricultural Commis¬ 
sioners respectively of Maine, Vermont 
and New Hampshire, members at large. 
The entire meeting bore the clear 
marks, to the trained observer of the wise 
leadership of-Manager Richard Pattee of 
Nempa, now become the “Dean,” since 
the death of Secretary Maiming of New 
York, of the eastern dairy cooperative 
movement, ranking in years of service all 
cooperative officers. He spoke very 
quietly and briefly, when called on, but 
with powerful effect, voicing his deep and 
undisturbed conviction that the coopera¬ 
tive movement is bound to go right on, 
till its service to producer and consumer 
has been fully rendered. He has an 
unshakable faith, he said, in the farmer’s 
foundation common sense, and in his 
ability to work out his own problems as 
they confront him. “We are up against 
no calamity,” he concluded, “which that 
common sense can not solve. When we 
have determined what we ought to do, we 
will get together and do it.”
