Some persons would not believe that
a man could suffer from coffee drink¬

unconsciousness. And to find relief in
changing from coffee to Postum ia
well worth recording.
“I used to be a great coffee drinker,
so much so that it was killing me by
inches. My heart became so w r eak I
would fall and lie unconscious for an
hour at a time.
“My friends, and even the doctor,
told me It was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. I would not be¬
lieve it, and still drank coffee until I
could not leave my room.
"Then my doctor, who drinks Pos¬
tum himself, persuaded me to stop cof¬
fee and try Postum. After much hesi¬
tation I concluded to try It. That was
eight months ago. Since then I have
had but few of those spells, none for
more than four months.
"I feel better, sleep better and am
better every way. I now drink noth¬
ing but Postum and touch no coffee,
and as I am seventy years of age all
my friends think the improvement
quite remarkable.”

(Copyright, 1914,
CO-OPERATIVE LESS<
Dublin, Ireland—There is no
in co-operation. It Is not a curiM®
for economic Ills. Cooperative emp^J
cerns succeed because they
good business methods. In fact
operative marketing Is good busindH
and good sense and intelligence fl'
piled biggest to and farm most marketing. ImportanLJesson^p This is tBj
be learned In Ireland. As Rev. Fa¬
ther Finley, a great believer in co¬
operation, says In an article in the
Constructive Quarterly, “That It has
been productive of much material
good to those who employed its meth¬
ods with intelligence and energy, is
beyond question; that it has been
barren of useful results where those
qualities were wanting is equally un¬
deniable.”
Co-operative marketing succeeds in
Ireland because It stands for three
things: (1) Good business methods
and intelligent management; (2) A
uniformly high quality of product;
(3) justice, equality and loyalty
among members. Without these char¬
acteristics co-operation fails in Ire¬
land and fails everywhere. These are
the lessons that Ireland has to teach
America. No group which does not in¬
sist upon running its co-operative con¬
cern along these lines can succeed.
To tolerate poor business methods, lax-
ity as to quality, or disloyalty and in¬
justice to each other is to fail.
These are some things Americans
will not. be required to experiment
upon, because the Irish have already
tried them out.
Simply Good Business.
Irish co-operation makes money for
fanner and city consumer alike. It
has succeeded in bringing the producer
and consumer nearer together. The
farm products go directly to the city
consumer. The product arrives in
good shape. It brings only a reason¬
able price. The result is that city
man and farmer profit by the more
economical method of distribution.
But co-operative marketing after all
is simply good, common sense and effi¬
cient business. There is nothing mys¬
terious about it. As we have said,
there is in it no magic. The good
co-operative marketing concerns over
here succeed because they are well
organized, well managed, intelligently
gove*wed, carefully supervised; be¬
cause they are simply efficient busi¬
ness organizations in w r hich 100 or
1,000 men with a common occupation
and a common interest get together
for a united, harmonious effort in
which every man doeB his full share.
Over here it is always “one man
one vote.” One lesson that Ireland
has for America is that no man and
no small group of men can be permit¬
ted to control any co-operative organ¬
ization. The principal of one man one
vote must prevail. The man who has
Invested $ 1,000 must have no more
voting power than the man who has
invested only $5. “Men, not prop¬
erty vote,” is another expression
used here. Under this system no man
can use the co-operative society for his
own selfish ends. The poorest farmers
attend the meetings, and if they show'
ability, go upon committees and be¬
come officers. The organization is
most essentially democratic.
All Profits to the Producer.
The purpose back of co-operative
organization differs from that back
of a commercial enterprise. It seeks
not to make dividends for the man
who invests his money, but to pro¬
vide that the producer shall receive
the largest possible percentage of the
price paid by the consumer. Ireland
has found by experience that
large profits are paid to the in. oi^^e ,
the real purposes of co-operatio
not served. One case is recorded
where American fruit grow’ers organ¬
izer a so-called co-operative concern
upon the joint stock plan. They in¬
veigled into the venture a large num¬
ber of smaller growers who had little
money to invest, but in the aggregate
a very considerable amount of fruit
to market. The ones who invested
largely were In control and proceed¬
ed to make ’arge profits for them-
holders.
Must Market Through the Society.
Every time that any group of Amer¬
ican farmers have organized a co¬
operative marketing concern they have
met sharp and often unfair competi¬
tion. The other established buyers
have offered prices which were higher
than the co-operative society could
offer without taking a loss. Often they
succeed In coaxing the members of
the co-operative society from Its sup¬
port. It Is hard for a farmer who is
receiving only 35 cents per bushel
for his potatoes at a co-operative ware¬
house to refuse 45 cents offered by
some Independent buyer. But the un¬
varying subsequent history Is, of
course, that as soon as the co-opera¬
tive concern is put out of business by
this sort of competition prices drop,
and the farmer is where he was be¬
fore, and helpless in the hands of the
independent buyers,
To obviate this difficulty in Ireland,
it has been found necessary to ex¬
plain the situation fully to the pros¬
pective members of the co-operative
organization; to state to them that un¬
less they are willing to agree to mar¬
ket all their product through the co¬
operative society it is useless to be¬
gin. They are warned that they will
be approached by independent dealers
and offered higher prices. But thus
warned and informed upon the sub¬
ject, the organizers of Irish co-opera¬
tive societies have had little difficulty
in obtaining from the prospective mem¬
bers an agreement to market all of
their produce ^trough the concern.
Importance of Quality.
As we have said, there is no magic
in co-operation. Co-operative market¬
ing simply means that the farm pro¬
duce is to be marketed in a business¬
like way without undue waste dur¬
ing the process. Pioneers in Irish co¬
operation soon found that after they
had discovered the best market and
after they had organized the co-opera¬
tive society, and after the members
had agreed to bring all their produce
to the company, co-operation was still
an absolute failure whenever the mem¬
bers of the society delivered even oc¬
casionally, inferior goods and mingled
them with the better goods. A cream¬
ery puts out 100 pounds of good but¬
ter; If the next pound is bad butter
the market for the butter of that
creamery is ruined. Without high uni¬
form quality co-operation cannot suc¬
ceed. It becomes necessary therefore
for the members all to co-operate in
producing cream that is of the highest
possible quality and reaches the
creamery in the best condition. But
Irish experience demonstrates that no
private concern can compete in qual¬
ity with a co-operative concern, for no
private concern can control the prod¬
uct from its original source.
“Control” Is Requisite.
Quality can be produced by the co¬
operative society, because these con¬
cerns reach out to the farm it¬
self. It is not enough that a cream¬
ery has the best and latest methods
of making butter and marketing it.
If the cream comes in from the farm
in bad condition, the butter is bad.
To make good butter you must control
cow, and her feed, and her care,
the stables, and the milk pail,
and even the milk can used in deliv-
ery.
Certain rigid rules and conditions
are laid down by the creameries them¬
selves, and approved by a central com¬
mittee. Each creamery participating
in the scheme is required to give free
access during the working hours to the
officers of the I. A. O. S. that they may
inspect the premises and books, check
the records, examine any butter in
stock, and take for analysis samples'
of cream and butter. Each creamery
ia bound to maintain the moat lm-
maculate cleanliness, accept only milk
that is clean, fresh and untainted, pas¬
teurize all milk and cream, churn the
cream at a temperature not to exceed
48 degrees F., and affix the control la¬
bel to no butter that exceeds the 16
cent, limit of moisture.

concern at any time. As a result we
find everywhere throughout the co-op¬
erative enterprises of Ireland surpris¬
ingly efficient methods of accounting.
The I. A. 0. S. and its supervisory sys-
ter are largely responsible for this
situation.
One of the greatest difficulties en¬
countered was that of obtaining skill¬
ed managers for the various co-opera¬
tive concerns. But skilled and intel-
ligent they must be in order to in¬
sure success. For example, it is

good butter maker, but he must be a»
well a bookkeeper, a business man,
and a student of the markets. He
must understand something of trans¬
portation and of packing for trans¬
portation. He must be what we in
America would call a good mixer in
order to establish the proper point
of contact with customers and mem¬
bers as well.
Combination of Concerns.
It has also been determined by ex¬
perience that the separate little con¬
cerns, some of which are necessarily
managed by men of limited opportu¬
nity, cannot succeed unless they are
federated and supervised and helped
by a central organization. They need
assistance in organization, in finding
the best markets. The I. A. O. S.
has not only assisted in organizing the
co-operative societies, but receives pe¬
riodical reports from the, visits and in¬
spects them frequently, audits their
accounts, sees that their affairs are
properly conducted, makes sugges¬
tions as to markets and other business
problems, and gives council and ad¬
vice generally. Some such supervision
must come in America if co-operative
success is to be general and last¬
ing.
Our Conclusion.
Co-operation has undoubtedly suc¬
ceeded in Ireland. It deserves to suc¬
ceed because It stands for a uniformly
high quality of farm products, for fair
dealing, for just returns to those fur¬
nishing the product, for justice to the
consumer, as well as producer, for
good, clean business methods, for
skilled management, for community
loyalty and solidarity. Co-operation
will succeed in the United States
whenever it stands for these things.
If it does not, it will fail. The soon¬
er the co-operative enthusiast learns
that co-operation, like every other en-
terprise, must succeed on its merits,
not on some mysterious inherent vir¬
tue, the better. Nothing could be
more unwise at this time than to
preach the doctrine that co-operation
in itself sfiould be introduced any-
w-here and everywhere. If it is intro¬
duced before prospective members are
ready to co-operate in a proper spirit
for its success, it will inevitably fail
