Some one has well said: Farmers,
as a rule, live too much to themselves, -
and this makes US to proceed to urge
again the formation of Farmers Club
in Prince Edward, and not only in
Prince Edward but in all sister coun-
ties.
We could consume columns of space
in giving reasons why this should be
done, and no man can suggest one
good and valid reason against its being
done.
Monthly meetings would not be too
frequent in our opinion, but certainly
quarterly gatherings would be none too
many. This suggestion has been m ide
in the HERALD more than once, and is
repeated with the hope that some wide
awake farmer may take it up and put
it into practical operation. One live
man will put life into the thought.
We could name the man, but will not
take that liberty. Touch elbows,
brother farmers, and demonstrate to
the world what power there is in a
farmers combine. Fight combine with
combine and the victory is yours.
