National Live Stock Producers' Association forms in Chicago
A new cooperative emerges for livestock marketing. Farmers form the National Live Stock Producers' Association after a November 1 1921 meeting in Chicago to unite hogs cattle and sheep marketing, establish cost-based commission rates, and return patronage dividends once reserves grow. The plan creates terminal commissions and shipping associations with initial actions in St Louis and major markets nationwide.
