ADA COUNTY GROWS
AT VERY RAPID RATE

Meridian, Feb. S.-The Ada county
farm bureau recently organized by
County Farm Agent f. G. Williams of
Boise. Is rapidly assuming large pro-
portions from the viewpoint OF mem
bership throughout all the country
tributary to this place. and present in
dications point to its soon being a
strong rival in this particular to. the
Canyon county farm bureau which
now has the unique distinction Of hav-
ing tho largest paid-up membership
Of any county farm bureau in the
United States.
A branch organization was perfected
Tuesday night at White Cross by
County Farm Agent Williams and al
most each night through the past two
weeks an organization has been eff
fected by him at some country point in
the county. The farmers OF the coun-
try tributary to this place have been
greatly impressed by the marvellous re-
suits of the application OF scientific
methods to agricultural operations in
Canyon county the past two or three
years and are firmly resolved to intro
duce their application to the opera
tions of the industry in this county,
consequently the organization efforts
of County Agent Williams are striking
popular chord in all the farming
communities Of the county.
