The adoption Of the report Of the conf

part of the convention and is 50 admitted
to be even by those who did not endorse
Mr.. Jordan's plan.
1.-THE convention aud the farmers al
home demanded some decided action. If
later q better plan is suggested to us or
is evolved by our organization we stand
ready to adopt it.
1T will require time and patience and
much hard work to better OUT condition.
Organization of counties and townships
will begin at once. In those colrnties
where no organization now exists the
friends Of this movement are asked to
call conventions at once and organize.
No IDS will be designated to call these
county meetings as / take it that the
growers in those counties are most COM

MIR. JORDAN SATISFIED.
After the Association adjourned yes
terday Mr.. Jordan was seen as. to the
status of affairs from his point of view:
Will You have any rouble in securing
necessary money! - he was asked.
IF the farmers thoroughly Organize As
outlined by the convention and come up
with contracts controlling 90 per cent of
the tobacco grown in the territory OF the
sort to be controlled. I will have no
trouble whatever in securing ample CAPT

when do YOU think the plan can be
put in operation?'
1T depends entirely upon how soon the
farmers cam get organized and get the
necessary signatures to contracts. Ger
tainly all this ought to be accomplished
in ample time to be in readiness to take
care of the entire crop to be grown this
year.
