Discover how farmer-led cooperation could reshape prices, communities, and lasting prosperity.
The Third Power outlines a bold idea: farmers organizing into national and international cooperative bodies can secure fair prices and stronger communities. It argues that land, labor, and capital power the economy, but only through united action can farmers ensure stable returns and a healthy rural sector. The book discusses the rise of the American Society of Equity and the potential to place agriculture on solid, predictable footing alongside other major industries. This edition presents the program, questions, and practical steps for building a cooperative movement that benefits growers, workers, and households across the countryside. It frames cooperative action as a path to better prices, better schools, improved roads, and more opportunity for farm families.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work.

We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book's central message is that farmers, despite being the most important and largest class of people in the world, are currently the most dependent. The author believes that this is because farmers lack the power that organized labor and capitalists have leveraged to secure fair prices for their products and influence wages. The author provides a history of the ways in which farmers have been oppressed throughout history and argues that the only way to change this is for farmers to organize and become a powerful force in their own right. By doing so, farmers will not only improve their own lives but also benefit all of society by ensuring a stable and equitable food supply. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
