Mr.. s. p. Blanton having just re-

made a talk about the great work
the A. S. of E. is doing for the farm
ers where they are making use of it.
He says there is a world of great
work being done and that all We
have to do is to take advantage Of
the opportunity now being offered
us and that if We fail to grasp this
chance, We may regret our negli-
gence some day.
The house was then adjourned to
meet at Hartford, Oct. 81, to receive
the report of the sales committee.
j. R. WELLER, Pres.
HENRY NJ. PIRTLE, Sec'y.
Now since the national union of
| the A. S. of Z. is willing and has
been spending money by sending
men to our county to reorganize US
into the American Society OF Equity,
and since we all know and are will
ing to admit that the A. S. of E. is
the only and the best real farmers
organization We have ever had, and
since We have reorganized the coun-
ty union and have a. nice little to-
bacco pool for Hartford delivery,
why not every one return and show
their allegiance o'the order again
and show the Northwestern members
that We have not forgotten how to
do things in Kentucky?
Some of the old members that
have always stood faithful and al
ways been in the harness have been
working hard to assist the men that
the national organization has sent
among us and without compensation.
Now the national Office is getting
tired of this without the members,
or rather farmers, taking more in
terest in the work, and cannot and
will not. keep their men in the field
much longer unless we take more in
terest. So now l beseech you,
brethren, don't stand back to see
what the other fellows are going to
do, for they are watching you.
beg you to please come forward
with your part and let us get busy
and do things. You are charged no
dues and you pay only a small per
cent on the business you DIP. So
you see every one pays according to
what benefit he gets out of it.
Respectfully,
HENRY NJ. PIRTLE.
