Faith In Farm Bureau
Increases Membership

Actual test of farm bureau
methods has proved so successful
that membership in several coun-
ties has spontaneously almost
doubled since the formal cam
paign was made. Membership of
all counties is increasing. Con-
fidence seems to be better than
ever. Total membership is now
$4,000"
This is the purport of state
ment given out by the state farm
bureau which shows that Ottawa
county has increased its first
membership of 900 to 1862 in six
months. Huron county has volun-
tarily increased its membership
from 3047 to 3103. Hillsdale
county enrolled 1900 last spring |;
now has 2069. Oakland, first to
organize, has grown from 1900 to
2400 in year and Allegan. which
started with 1850 now has 2475
members. The state farm bureau
points out that farmers find in the
farm bureau a potential solution
to their problems. More farmers
are realizing this every day as is
proved by the fact that the orig
inal membership in every county
is constantly growing.
