مستخلص: This article looks at the success of cooperation among livestock producers in the U.S. The remarkable success attained by the California Fruit Growers and the world-wide celebrity of their Sunkist brand gave a notable lead to cooperative marketing in the U.S. Furthermore, those who advertised the success of the California Fruit Growers emphasized unduly one side of it, the fact that it merchandised a perishable fruit. Therefore, there is a feeling abroad today that cooperation is only of decisive value in the case of perishables. The feeling has been strengthen by the inability of U.S. grain growers to carry cooperation beyond the operation of local elevators. The cooperative record in livestock marketing is so substantial that if its significance were realized, it would surely induce a further advance along the agricultural line. One of the best tests of progressive cooperation is its ability to develop complementary cooperative activities. As the associations grow in strength, they find it desirable to make provision for general educational purposes, and a few of the stronger ones have gone further and established cattle loan departments for the making of the loans, directly or through an ad hoc corporation, to carry on feeding operations.
