Excerpt from Co-Operation for Farmers I have found by experience that any book written on an economic subject at the present time is likely to be regarded by the critics, and perhaps by all readers, as an attempt to solve all the problems of reconstruction. Let me say at once that I feel no ambition and claim no competence for such a task. Judged by that standard this book has no value. Let me disarm the critic by saying with all the clearness I can command that I do not regard co-operation as a panacea for all ills; I am not disposed to fear the dissolution of the universe if the co-operative commonwealth delays its coming a few more years, nor to expect the millennium if the contrary take place. I seek merely to contribute one small stone to the building by setting before English readers what I have learned in practice of the benefits of co-operation in agriculture and the means of increasing those benefits. On no further point do I invite either blame -or praise. Even so, if this book is to have any practical value, the lessons I have tried to record must be accompanied by some definite information as to how to make use of them.

Agricultural Cooperation was first published in 1957. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Much has been written and published on the general subject of agricultural cooperation, but the material has been scattered and hard to find until now. The volume makes available in convenient form a selection of the most significant articles and excerpts from books, magazines, pamphlets, and other publications. It provides a comprehensive view of the development of farmers' cooperatives in the United States and an evaluation of their relation to the present economy. The 54 articles are by 49 different contributors from various branches of cooperative activity. Among them are professors of agricultural economies, government research experts in agricultural cooperation, officers and members of cooperative organizations, as well as government officials including former Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson and Senators Paul H. Douglas and George D. Aiken. J. K. Stern, president of the American Institute of Cooperation, contributes a foreword. The articles deal significantly with such broad subjects as the economic and social forces that have shaped the development of cooperatives, the place of cooperative organizations in helping to meet the present-day needs of agriculture, and the role of these farmer-owned businesses in the nation's economy.
