Abstract:
In spite of this widely spread knowledge of and interest
in various forms of organisation, the average man of the
professional and educated classes in the United Kingdom
still looks quite blank if he is approached as to his views
on the subject of co-operation. He has probably some
knowledge of the fact that a doctrine of agricultural
co-operation is practised by some well-meaning enthusiasts
for purposes which he does not clearly understand; and as
the average professional man knows little or nothing of
agriculture, he dismisses this movement as being merely
an eccentric method derived from foreign countries of
growing cabbages which he is not called upon to understand.
