FARM BUREAU NEWS.

Extracts From First lssne Of County
Farm Publications.
The first issue OF the Hancock County
Farm Bureau NesDs is out. Following is
the Introductory greeting by Julien
Emery, president OF the Farm Bureau, and
few extracts from the paper:
THANKSGIVING GREETINGS.
Fellosc Pdtrons
Most hearty Thanksgiving greet
ings to you through this, the first
issue OF THE HANCOCK COUNTY FARM
BUREAU News. 4
the pioneer County Farm Bureau
in tie State of Maine, OUR Farm
Burean, was organized In July with
paid membership Of more than
three hundred 5000 OF the leading,
progressi 10 farmers OF the county,
and with such an organization the
farmers of the county enter upon a
new era OF agricultural possibilities
because of more systematic and
definite CO. operation OF all farm in
terests.
The Farm Bureau seeks to promote
all interests which have for their
purpose the advancement of agri-
culture and rural life In the county,
and there is absolutely nothing which
it cannot accomplish for the county,
nj
it's needs meaning business. The
real big job right now, men and
women, is to determine our needs
and to map out definite plan of
work for the coming year whereby
these needs may be met. Let's bring TO
the aid Of our tireless and energetic
county agent the concentrated and
crystallized efforts Of each community
committee, and determine as soon
as possible what sort of extension
and demonstration work will best
meet the needs OF our several com
munities and say when it shall be
done. The county agent will there
by be relieved OF much detail work
and can conserve his energies for
its prosecution.
Other counties In the State are
organizing wide awake and enthu-
siastic Farm Bureaus, many Of which
may come to be larger than ours.
In quality, however, we must make
The Hancock County Farm Bureau
second to none, and we may If We
get whole heartedly on to the job. 1t
is especially important at this par.
ticular time for everybody to pro.
mote the agricultural interests of
the country.
Another membership campaign
will soon be on, and we must plan to
double our membership. How easy
it will be il each existing member
will resolve to bring in one new
name. Every farmer in the county,
az we'll as every farmers wife, for
the Farm Bureau by no means
limits it's activities to work in the
field, should line up with this county
organization, for the service which
the Bureau will bring to every COM
munity will richly repay us all for
the small membership fee invested.
Com on, now, brother farmer!
Let's get right down together with
the county agent ana demonstrate
the fact that Hancock County can
grow farm products and "put things
across" that shall be credit to the
intelligence of her men and woman.

The spirit of the expression, "Get
acquainted with your neighbor, you
might like him." is surely making
itself felt in Hancock county, for
there was never so much interest
taken in farm activity throughout the
county as at present. This is we'll
shown by the fact that the large
number OF farmers who turned out
for the county contest, annual Bureau
meeting and seed-improvement
meeting was surprise to everybody.
What better signs can we have Of
