Call For Special Meeting.

The following call for special
meeting OF the Farmers Elevator COM
pany has been issued:
AT recent meeting of the share hold.
ers of the Farmers Elevator Co., by
resolution duly adopted, the Board OF
Directors was instructed to levy an
equal assessment upon every share OF
stock to pay off the net indebtedness

debt satisfactorily upon what the di
