The number of elevator associations in which farmers owned at least 50 per cent of the stock had grown to 270 by 1914. In that year the total membership was 34,500, an average of 128 members per association. For the fiscal year 1912-13, $22,000,000 worth of grain was marketed and $2,000,000 of supplies purchased for members. The grain marketed through these associations constituted 30 per cent of the grain marketed by Minnesota farmers.en-USElevator
