HOW THE FARMERS SHOULD
ORGANIZE.

The U. S. Agricultural Department is
continually receiving inquiries from all
sections asking how farmers ought to
organize. The answer TO such general
question must necessarily be that it de-
pends partly upon the particular needs of
given community and partly upon the
capacity which farmers have to establish
and manage the work OF suitable or
ganization There should be strong
local feeling OF the need of some improve
ment and that certain definite aims or pur-
poses can be more fully realized with the
aid of organized interest and activity than
through individual effort alone. II is
folly to expect that mere organization. as
such, will achieve given object. unless
the farmers organize in the right way and
equip their organization so that it will
Garry on its work efficiently. Having de
cided that an associated effort is warrent
ed by the needs of the community.
study should be made of the kind of or
eanization that would be most helpful and.
the ways and means of making its work
effective While this calls for intelligent.
enthusiastic. and self sacrificing leader
SHIP II is best that this be furnished lo-
caily- Organizations may need outside
advice, but they should not be promoted
by outsiders. The farmers advance
must come as the result of mis- own efforts:
his progress must develop from within
rather than from without The organiza-
ton that is given him is of far less value
to him than the one which he himself
creates. In the matter of securing advice
1t is generally wise to make application to
the agricultural college or the proper
Government official. In asking for this
advice full statement of the local situa-
ton should be given-the territory to be
included, number of farmers interested,
class and amount of work to be UNDER
taken. previous cooperative experience,
and any other local features that will give
a definite idea of the problems that must
be met in outlining plan of organization
tor the hetterment Of the community.
