COUNTY FARMERS
UNION MEETING

Not a largely attended but prof.
liable and enjoyable meeting was that
at the Bohemian Hall, south of Col
lege, Tuesday. The ladies of the To-
cality had prepared repast which
was reinforced by splendid barbe-
cue that drew we'll merited praise
from all present.
There was lengthy discussion by
the leading members as to some of
the best methods by which the farm
interests can be better served,
Mr.. Jno. H. White sounded the key
not when The said that Bryan needed
more industries. 1T is our business
to cooperate with the men OF Bryan
to develop the industries, investing
the necessary capital to do so, be-
cause we are developing our own re-
sources by so doing"
Mr. I. NJ. Cook, president, urged bet
ter methods of marketing, but" said
he, I'VE can meyer accomplish the best
results, until we work in unison both
in marketing our products and pur-
chasing our supplies
Mr.. James Cooper said that one of
the things needed to secure a greater
benefit to the farmers was more con-
fidence in ourselves and in each 9TH
Ell.
Mr.. A. w. Buchanan made strong
plea for a system of farm rotation
which would surely result in better
marketing system and a greater bank
account for the farmers. Said he:
"The farmer is the only producer of
wealth, sand he has it within his pow
er to dictate the terms upon which
he will part with that production if
he will"
Mr.. L. NJ. Hewitt, secretary of the
Bryan Commercial Club, spoke of the
Of keeping the educated
young man on the farm. HE en-
deavors to inaugurate a business sys-
TEN and neighborhood cooperation
for the general development, but he
receives no encouragement, and bus
mess of the city beckons to him,
where his talent and effort will re-
ceive better appreciation, and thus
the farm is being gradually robbed |

It's fertility, making farm life less at
-ractive year by year. Cooperation |
between the business man and the |
farmer to raise the standard of the
farm life will be a strong factor in
he remedy"
After discussing the matter of
central selling agency and other i'm
)ortant matters, it was decided to call
another county meeting to be held at
he Union Warehouse, Wednesday,
Oct. 80, at o'clock for the purpose
