There are $50 farmers clubs In the

The move 20 establish clubs among

toward prosperity that the state has

There seems 20 be only two solu.
lions" says Professor Wilson. ito the
problem OF putting the farmer on an
equal basis with those with whom he
has business outside OF the farm. One
Is TO Increase the size OF the average
