Cooperation Necessary.

If you will lay aside your prejudice
and give this question the benefit of
your honest judgment you will readily
see the value of closer cooperation
with the Farm Bureau. 1t is not the
policy of the Bureau to tell you how to
farm. Its functions are to help you in
solving problems that you are not able
to handle. Cooperation between the
farmers in the handling Of their bust
ness is now more than in any other
period in the history of our country the
essential necessity.
Every business in the world is Or
ganlzed and in position to protect its
interests. The farmers must organ
ize for mutual protection. The Iowa
Farm Bureaus have organized into
State Federation. Ninety-seven out of
the nine y.nine counties are organized
on q permanent basis. Howard coun
ty should get in line. 1t is o..e of the
two counties still unorganized. We
need at least 160 new members in or
der to continue the Farm Bureau work
If we keep the permanent organization
we will receive our portion of federal
aid. If we drop out, other counties
will receive what rightfulIy belongs to
us. 1t is up the farmers Of Howard
county whether they join the $1,000
farmers already in this organization or
whether they will forfeit their rights
to the federal appropriation. Remem-
Der, that up to this time none of the
private subscriptions to the Farm Bu-
reau have been used to pay the county
agent. Federal appropriation has paid
the salary of the agent.
The month of March has been set
aside for membership campaign.
Every farmer should be booster. At
$500 per year it is batter to belong to
a strong farm organization with mem-
bership of over 80, 600. and every MEM
Der working for the mutual good of
himself and his neighbor, than to be-
long to a political organization whose
sole object is to further the ambitions
of political leaders. The Farm Bureau
can furnish you income blanks and will
assist you ia making them out.
We have rsquest for 100 .head Of
,pure bred cattle q diffsrsnt breeds IN
tcar ioad lots. The teattla 80 n
Howard county but o. not have
your address. If you inform the Bu-
reau a. to your address and what kind
of stock you have We could fill such re-
quests as the above. Why don't you
try it?
The Bureau has sent to certain town
ship officials in every township in How
ard county q request for the names of
all pure bred stock breeders. With
this request went a self-addressed
stamped envelope including blank on
which to write down the names of the
breeders. So far we have had but four
replies. This but emphasizes the fact
that there is a lack of interest on the
part of the farmers. We will do our
best to put Howard County Farm Bu-
reau on a workable basis in the next
three months. If we fail the federal
appropriation will 60 elsewhere. We
want your help. Sign the new men,
bership pledges. Get blank from any
bank in the county. Be a booster.
