er of the press.
The rural press, the pulpit and the
school are a trinity of powerful in
nuences that the farmer must utilize
to their fullest capacity before he can
occupy a commanding position in pub.
lie affairs. These gigantic agencies are
organized in every rural community
and only await the patronage and Co
operation of the farmers to fully de-
velop their energy and usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best interests of their respective
communities. Their work is to build
and their object is to serve. They
prosper only through the development
and prosperity of the community.
Every farmer in this state should
subscribe for the local paper, as well
as farm periodicals and such other
publications as he may find profitable.
but he should by all means subscribe
Tor his local paper. and no home
should be without it. The local paper
is part of the community life and the
