THE FARM BUREAU.

The Grady County Commercial anI
Farm Bureau is winding up its frs
years work and 1t will soon start OF
another twelve months lap. Launched
late in the season last year, the move
ment has been successful beyond what
might have been expected under tke
circumstances. or course to those
who were SO short-sighted as to ex
pect revolution in farming to be ef-
fected in one year there has been dis
appointment. The majority OF the
members realize, however, that in a
movement of such magnitude only a
mere beginning could be made in one
year and that many years will be re.
quired to complete the work that has
been undertaken
In view Of these facts it would be
shortsighted and foolish indeed to all
low ans break in the movement at this
time 1t is to be hoped, therefore, that
every member OF the bureau will line
up in the movement for the coming
year, giving it the same liberal sup
port that has been accorded to it in
the past On April 2l the annual cleo
tion of officers and directors will be
held and this is a matter in which
every member should take an interest.
Every one should plan also to attend
the banquet when the work of the past
year will be reviewed and every mem
Der will learn what he has been get
ting for his money. Since the bureau
was launched the business men in
several other towns in the county have
joined in the good work and the ban
quet viii afford an opportunity to meet
and become better acquainted,
The work Of the farm bureau IS Of
an educational nature and necessarily
it goes on silently without any blare of
trumpets, not attracting public atten-
ton, as some Of our more spectacular
out icoS cliCttlAc lONH DululIS
movements did in the past We ven
ture the assertieny however, that dur
ing the past s-car the bureau has ac-
complished more solid good, more
beneficial results of parmanenr
character than any movement in which
we have ever before engaged 1t is
based upon the principle that the most
effective way to build BETTER towns
is to make the entire county perma-
nently prosperous and this is to be
done by making farming a safer and
more profitable business The more
you study about it the more you will
be convinced that this principle Is cor
rect We should make up our minds
TO persevere in the work that has been
undertaken till it Yields the large re-
suits which may logically be expected

at stake in the effort to unionize the
