THERE'S ADHERENCE


There was no county agen in Rankin
County, Miss, last year, and the far
mers Individually could not successful
" market their produce. In fact, on
" one carload Of potatoes was shipped
out OF Star during the season. Condi-
tions at present are very different.
Rankin now has a wideWake agent who
believes IN cooperative shipping, as is
evident from this information receiv-
ed by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.
"This year our county agen organ
lied cooperative club and looked af-
ter the marketing of our produce. Al
so he gave us information as to treat
ing seed and necessary fertilizer. This
year our agent marketed p cars of
potatoes comparatively for us and Sc
cured the top market price. Some
Of the farmers in this community made
over 500 per acre. This increase of
|21 cars is due to the efforts of our
agent, as we could not market our pro-
duce alone at profit.
s.Mr. Burk's information given on
the proper use of fertilizer has been
worth many dollars to me alone. We
have secured over 100 bushels of seed
wheat through our agent to be planted
this fall"
