GREENBRIER FARMERS
ORGANIZE.

On last Tuesday representatives
from the majority of the Community
Farm Bureaus met in the Court
House for the purpose Of forming
The County organization.
r. A. Rapp was appointed as tenn
Porary chairman and Col. Fl. B.
Moore as temporary secretary.
Fl. S. Vandervort, Assistant State
Agent Of the Agricultural Depart
ment at Morgantown. was present
and lent valuable assistance in per-
fecting the county organization. He
stated that the Government was
ready to pay it's half of the salary
Of County Agent and also to pay a
part Of his expense and equipment,
the County Court to pay the other
half of the salary. The organization
agreed to furnish him with an Office
and provide for Office expense. Some
weeks ago the State sent John r.
Copeland, Of Indiana, to serve the
people Of Greenbrier as an Emer-
6ency County Agent, his expense and
salary to re cared for out of spec
| ial fund until the county was ready
10 employ him. The county being
organized, the matter is now ready
for the action OF the County Court.
Mr.. Vandervort stated that Mr..
Copeland came to them very highly
recommended and that they sent him
to Greenbrier thinking that he would
suit the needs Of this county. Mr..
Vandervrt also stated tat the Depart
ment OF Agriculture was willing to
cooperate with Greenbrier i'm any
manner possible for the betterment
OF farm interests
Much interest was shown and the
prospects seemed bright for the fu-
ture.
The officers elected for the year
are: President. b. A. Rapp, of Rem
ick; Secretary, Eugene Tuckwiller,
OF Lewisburg; Treasurer, John G..
Dotson. Of Lewisburg: County Pur-
chasing and Selling Agent. John G.

FARMERS, IT'S UP TO US.

Now that the Greenbrier Farm Blu
reau is fully organized. and will saon
go before the Colrt for local approval
and endorsement of the better farm
ing movement, which is sweeping the
whole United States, it is we'll that
we Individually ask CT ourselves
OF what personal value is such a
movement?
In answering the question. let us
assume the truly business attitude,
let us forget, for the moment, that
we are producers Of almost every
ming we need and that we have no
worry. Let us remember that mark
cts are good and demands are COM
manu1ng production, for tho the war
Is won, we are yet enjoying the high
prices for our products. Then, too,
remember there Is foe in the land
and that that foe is best defeated by
feeding the populace.
1t is our duty to produce. not only
that we may profit financially, but
also that we may survive and serve
| those VINO are in jeopardy.
How are we best able TO server"
With this question scores OF diff
culties arise and if we continue alone,
IN our thinking and in our doing, we
lose ourselves in dependency.
We have at hand the organized as
sistance of the largest department of
he greatest organization on earth
We have for our immediate use sug-
gestions, advice, plans, cooperation,
financially and otherwise Of the U.
-frVoc
limit that we may receive Is controll-
ed only by our needs and expressed
by our demands.
All other business enterprises
associate themselves together in Or
CARNATIONS that they may effect leg
islation and business relationships so
THAT the individuals as represented
may achieve the best possible results
In their own behalf. We, as farm
ers, have not thus far, taken full ad-
vantage of the legislation already
enacted by our fellow farmers in Con-
gressional halls. We have been slow
in our ability to act as a body.
However, at the present time or
CARNATIONS are being established in
all communities that we may unite
in the solution Of our problems and
realize more fully from them such
things as are provided for us.
If you have no such community or
ganization yours is the loss. See to
It that one is established. II YOU
have one in your community. get be-
hind it, give it your support and get
support in turn.

FROM CLINTONVILLE.

We see our old friend G. w. He'd
rick's smiling face back among his
friends again from long journey
visiting some Of his kin in another
county. He S better known among
the girls as Our Pet"
Miss Myrtle Shecky is again at
home. She taught IL very successful
school at the Bivens school house
it is said the best and most success
full school taught there for some
years.
Thieves broke into w. B. Jones
store house, at Meadow Bluff, a few
nights ago and stole money. goods,
tobacco. etc. They entered through
a window
0. A. McCutcheon, who taught a
very successful school at SPOTS ridge
has completed the term.
Mrs. j. B. Leach, who was in the
Clifton Forge Hospital, was very sue
cessfully operated on, and has return
ed to her home near Clintonville very
much improved.
The protracted meeting held at
Sam Black Memorial church has
closed with goodly number of ac-
cessions to the church--quite a num-
Der of young folks, together with the
heads of families. Rev. Mr.. Dorsy
from Nicholas county, preached a fine
sermon last Sunday concluding with
a few excellent remarks on the great
Centenary movement.
Mrs. Abbie Zopp, aged 90 years,
has passed to the realms above. She
leaves to mourn her departure five
sons and two daughters and host
OF grand and great-grand children.
The sons are B. W., Joseph, Bury,
Truslow and Stonewall, the daugh-
ters are Mrs. Charlotte McClung and
Mrs. Ledona Odell. She was the
widow of Benjamin Zopp, who came
to this county probably with the
Cranes from Baltimore. She was a
Miss Shaver before marriage.
Blessed are the dead who die in
the Lord.
The old people are getting very
scarce in this district.
The bond issue for permanent
roads in Meadow Bluff district car
:'ied Saturday by more than the nee
essary three-ffths. 1t is strange that
some men who for years have
been counted good citizens cleo
tioneered and talked against the bond
issue and told many fabulous tales
against 1t, but TO no avail On one
occasion one of the County officials
said to DR.. McClung that the darn
fools of Meadow Bluff district did
rot Know a good road when they
saw it, This is now one Of the times
that the darn fools Of Meadow
Bluff woke up to a full sense Of their
duty and voted right, for good
roads will help build up the county
and capitalists can then safely inyes,
their money.
