Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cooperative Elevator Movement: A Study in Grain Marketing at Country Points in the North Central States In general it may be safely said that the functions which these middlemen perform are a necessary phase of the marketing process. But doubt has arisen in the minds of many farmers, and this holds true in a special manner of the grain growers, whether at least some of these functions might not be more economically performed by themselves. Thus it is readily seen that the real issue between the grain grower and the middleman relates to the fairness of the charge which the latter exacts for the service that he per forms. It is this issue which lies at the basis of and offers the key to the explanation of the origin and growth of the movement described in these pages.
