In Oklahoma the next to immovable body of medicine is being pushed by the gathering force of the farmer-cooperators. Organized in the Farmers' Educational and Cooperative Union, the farmers have tasted the benefits of a cooperative group-practice and group prepayment system in the complete service offered by the Farmer's Union Cooperative Hospital in Elk City. As for M. Shadid, the Socialist founder and medical director of the Elk City enterprise cites in his appendix the resolutions indorsing the Elk City medical cooperative by the Oklahoma State Federation of Labor.
