brought up and one man was appoint

money could be saved In buying ne

seed for farming. He made his In

weeks. So pleased were his col
leagues with his work that the men
agreed to form the Getchell Agricul
tural society, but no officers were
elected and no bylaws drawn up
Each mans promise is considered
good for anything he agrees to.
The purchasing agent has gone
east and found where the best seed
may be had at. the best prices and
drafts for $1,000 were sent out yes
terday to secure a supply for the
members Of the society. A selling
agent has now been appointed and
is securing the market for the best
prices on the various farm products
for sale. He works with the 2ur

for the community and applying the
money obtained upon what new ma.
