You need to turn on orgtbl-mode as a minor mode:
M-x orgtbl-mode
But putting the example in an org document misses the point I think: the
idea is that you have a *LaTeX document* (not an org one), but you want
to be able to create a table using org syntax and to then automatically
create the LaTeX table from the org table. So you add the code into your
LaTeX document, turn on orgtbl-mode as a minor mode and then press C-c
C-c on the ORGTBL: SEND line which turns the org table into a LaTeX
table and inserts it at the spot specified with the BEGIN/END RECEIVE
ORGTBL stufff.
