LIVESTOCK ASSOCIATION
CHANGES ITS PLAN
The South Carolina. Co-operative
Livestock Association finds it neces
sary to change it's plan of organiza
tion so that the great mass of live- j
stock men of the State can become j
members and be benefitted instead of!
a comparatively small number; asj
would have been the case under its I
or'ginalplan.
In changing to a non-stock associ
ation it feels sure of accomplishing
the good that the association is being
organized for. With a capital stock
organization only those who have
money to tie up in stock at $100, a
share could become members. In that
case the small livestock man who
needs the help of the association most
would have been left out. its present
plan makes it possible for anyone in
terested in livestock to become a
member and receive the numerous
benefits to be had from co-operative
marketing of livestock.
Under its revised plan there Is a
$10 membership fee. This entitles its
members to all of its rights and priv
ileges, There will be a small commis
sion of 3 per cent deducted from each
sale. Funds accumulated in this way
will be used for the maintenance and l
operation of the association. If at(
he end of each year there k a sur
:s AT THE GENOA PARLEY
3 centered on the economic con
at Genoa, Italy, for some weeks: i. '
time longer. Photo shows nbt
in activities there during the
eft, of Germany, speaking to C.'
ment. These two men were the
lussian-German alliance.

The co-operative marketing or live

the farmer the best prices to be had*
Information furnished in regards to J
all phases of the livestock industry* ]
will be of great value. The assistance
of the association will stabilize the
growing and marketing of livestock
and place it on a sound business ba
sis. The success of any business is; j
based as much on its marketing end
