Abstract There is a widespread interest in cooperative timber marketing. In the following article Professor Murphey delineates some of the problems a timber-marketing cooperative must solve if it is to he successful. It is shown that there are no magical properties inherent in a timber cooperative that will relieve it from any of the marketing operations now existing. To succeed it must do the job of marketing more efficiently and more completely than it is done by the present marketing system.
F. T. Murphey (Sat,) studied this question.
