AND
CO-OPERATIVE UNION
Meaning of Co-operation.
At the signing of the Declaration of
Independence in 1776, one of the mem
bers of the Continental Congress ex
claimed, “We must all hang together!”
os, said another member, "or we
will all hang separately.”
This truth so forcibly stated is ap
plicable to the members of the Farm
ers' i'nion today. I have stated time
and again, and I challenge contradic
tion, that nothing can withstand the
onward march of the Farmers’ Union
as an order so long as it presents a
united front to the outside world.
So long as we "hang together’
the older is invincible. But when
ever bickering, and strife, and dis
sentauons, divide and disintegate the
membership, then shall we assuredly
“all hang separately.”
But what is the meaning of the word
“cooperation?” To “operate” means
to act, to work, to exert power,
strength, and to “cooperate” means to
work jointly with others, to “pull to
gether" to accomplish definite results.
It is a simple matter—just to blend
our energies with those of our neigh
bors. It is making a single human
machine out of many individual brains
and hands. We need not and ought
not to lose our individuality, but our
aims and the objects we wish to ac
complish must be in common with
those of our neighbors. It may spring
from the most selfish motives, or from '
perfect altruism, but whatever be the
moti%-es that inspires it, cooperation
multiplies individual effort and pro
duces results, far beyond what could
be accomplished through the same
individuals acting separately or inde
pendently, and not in harmony.
This is emphatically an age of or
ganization. The church is organized;
merchants are organized, bankers are
organized—and why not the farmers?
It is right to organize for legitimate
purposes, so long as no effort is made
to trample upon the rights of others.
But when organized greed tries to stifle
competition and to crush out the other
fellow—there is where the harm comes
in. Bu organization has its prop
er uses, and the farmers ought to
avail themselves of it.
Organization is a community of In
terest; it Is a machine made out of
indiviluals; it s another name for
cooperation. The founders of the
Farmers' Union Builded wisely
when they added the word “coopera
tive” to its name.
Dill w iittL is iu uc haiiitu
farmers cooperating through the
Farmers' Union? Let us see.
1. To a certain extent they can con
trol the prices of their products. They
may not do it in one year, or two
years, but in time they \vill succeed,
provided they act wisely and will pull
together and stick together. It is said
that farmers will not stick together.
Now is the golden opportunity to prove
the contrary. Diversify your crops
and live at home so that you will be
independent, and then stand together
for fair prices.
2. By cooperation in buying you
can purchase supplies much cheaper
than when you act singly and alone.
3. It will enable you to resist those
who try to oppress you; it will aid you
in doing away with the mortgage sys
tem. which is the curse of farmers; it
will aid you in improving your neigh
borhood. in securing good roads and
good schools for your children In a
word, it will enable you to so improve
your condition that life will he worth
living, thus bringing joy and peace
and gladness to the hearts of your
wives and children.
An old man lav dying, so the story
goes, and gathered his seven sons
• round him. He bade them bring him
a bundle of seven sticks tied together,
and each son in turn lied to break
the bundle, but could not. Untying
the bundle, even the youngest child

broke each stick easily. What a lesson j
In cooperation! Members of the Farm-j
ers' Union, let the motto. “United we i
stand, divided we fall," sink deep into
your hearts. In no other way can we
“garner the tears of the distressed and
bring laughter to the cheeks of inno
cent childhood.”—Mississippi Union
Advocate.
Some Questions Answered.
The most common objector says the
Farmers' Union will not stick. Farm
ers are the greatest organizers and
stickers in the world and they will
stick when there is something to stick
for. Show the farmers benefits in the
way of profitable prices for their
crops and no power on earth can draw
them apart.
The farmers have got enough sense
to appreciate a profitable business?
and they will stick to the thing that
makes them money and elevates their
calling.
But still another says farmers are
too numerous to co-operate. This is a
great fallacy. If great numbers was
an element, of weakness, then indeed
our cause would be hopeless. Would
you think a nation weak because it had
miHidns of able-bodied men? No;
but you would say, “Organize them
into armies and equip them with up
to-date arms and they will be invin
cible before any invasion.” So with
the farmers. The greater the union,
the greater the strength, provided you
have up-to-date methods and plans
to co operate on.
A union without a plan and a pro
gram is no union at all. Unity of
prices and controlled marketing is the
up-to-date gun and even farmers can
use it.
And now another objector comes
along and says, “Suppose the farmer
should produce a surplus?” Are farm
ars expected to be foolish enough to
throw in their surplus for good meas
ure? Surely not. Controlled market
ing will take care of the surplus if
any exists, and if farmers are co-oper
ating they can easily hold the surplus
of good seasons over to the short
years, thus equalizing supply and
prices and benefitting both producers
and consumers.
T anneal to von farmers brothers, in
behalf of the tired wives and mothers
of your homes, and if you are not will
ing to stand up for the freedom and
glory of such high and exalted devo
tion, you are unworthy to be called
a husband and father and to bear the
name of an American citizen. What
must be the quality of the courage of
the farmer who stands back and re
fuses to assist in throwing off the
cowardly curs of commercialism who
have fastened their rabid mouths upon
the throats of helpless women and
children on the farm and threaten the
industrial life of the nation? The
farmer who falters is a coward. Then
let’s be up and doing, brother farm
ers. Place a standard upon our busi
ness like the commercial interests have
done and then conform to the stand
ard; that is, a minimum price below
which we will not allow our produce
to come.—Correspondence National Co
operator.
i The enemy is too strong and too
well organized now for any time to be
! lost in fighting among ourselves over
pet hobbies or imaginary differences.

What is medicine for? To cure you, if sick, you say.
But one medicine will not cure every kind of sickness, because different
medicines act on different parts of the body. One medicine goes to the liver,
another to the spine, Wine of Cardui to the womanly organs. So that is why
Wine of Cardui
has proven so efficacious in most cases of womanly disease. Try it.
Mrs. Wn. Turner, of Barton villa. 111., writes: “1 suffered for years with female diseases, and doctored
without relief. My back and head vould hurt me, and I suffered agony with bearing-down pains. At last
I took Wine of Cardui and now 1 am in good health." Sold everywhere, in $1.00 bottles.
