rules for the get-togcthers:
The town and the farming
community cannot succeed with

Farmers should forget the wild
charges of the demagogcs and
consider their own interests in

the farmer.
Help the people of adjacent
towns to make the towns "alivc. .
Don't have the nearest town 10
you a dead one.
Rural prosperity depends upon
the ease with which shipments
are made. Railroads don't like
the dead towns. Don't back leg
islation that will kill the town.
Farmers should buy from homo
dealers. Keep your money in the
community where it adds to the
commercial life of everyone in the
town.
Every dollar the farmer puts
into his adjacent town helps him
it adds to the value OF his owr
holdings.
The town merchants SHOULD
make the farmer welcome. keeI
the things he wants to buy ano
sell them at a price which he is
willing to pay
