Demand for Speakers
On the Increase
NATIONAL GUARD
The c. A. c. in Joint Coast De
fence Exercises July 22-31
at Fort Williams -
Notes of Interest

Since the inception Of the Farmers
Union in Maine there has been a
steady growth and the interest now
before
Quite recently by permission of the
State master of the Oranges a letter
was sent out to all the Oranges in
Maine with the result that there is a
constant demand for speakers quail
fed 10 tell the Patrons what is being
accomplished by the farmers CO.
operating.
Quite recently new Unions have
been organized at Camden, Brownville
and lagrange. These new unions
we're organized by request of the
farmers and was not the result of any
special work on the part Of the Blu
reau of Marketing and Supplies.
c. E. Embree, the organizer of the
movement is very busy attending
meetings and organizing new unions.
He is scheduled to attend the follow
ing meetings: March II. Grange
meeting at Pennington; March Is.
Grange meeting at Bradford Center:
March Is. Grange meeting al Eas j
Lebanon: March il, West Baldwin !;
March Is. all day meeting Of the

VILE: March 49, all-day meeting of
Penobscot View Grange at Rockland +.
March 90 Grange meeting at Cor
ham; March %, all-day meeting of
the Brownville Farmers Union at
Brownville.
While the potato situation has been
great drawback 10 the progress OF
the Unions it has not in any way
curtaiied the interest in the move
ment. The farmers have made UP
their minds that cooperative sellins
and buying is the correct method for
them to adopt and in proof of this
they have organized g. unions in the
State, covering every county in it but
York; in addition wholesale gram
and supply house has been organ
lied at Waterviile, >. shipping houses
bought or built and the establishing
OF distributing house in Boston and
selling agency in New York City.
