said.
1.-The necessity of organization OF
the Agricultural work of the county
is greater today than ever There are
many lines Of work that require sys-
tematic and united efforts TO get the
best results for ourselves and those who
depend upon the farm products for
their living
THE first great demand for uniting
our efforts is that Of developing the
business OF farming. We shonh look
for the best methods of doing things
but il is more important to be ready
TO use them. The successful merchant,
the manufacturer, the tinancier does
not work alone He unites his best
with the best from the other fellow.
All lines of work which they are Toll
lowing are brought together as nearly
as possible in both buying and selling.
Likewise the farmers who are hand
ling COWS sheep, swine, horses and
poultry, potatoes, grams, hay, etc,
should be in close tonch with each
other. benefiting not only in securing
the best seeds as to purity and variety
but also in finding out the best meth
DDS Of growing, saving against loss
and last but not least to be able TO
market them together or at the best
advantage. We must have system.
They should study their markets
and meet them with proper quality
and grades Then demand prices
according to cost, in labor rental,
interest, taxes etc.
Livestock people should likewise
grow, handle and market their wares
on the same plans and principals that
organized business does.
