ROTARY CLUB MEETING

The Rotary club held a very in
teresting meeting last evening. One
of the most important events was
the presence of DR.. B. w. Kilgore'
as the guest of Mr.. B. r. Ferguson
who gracefully introduced DR.. Kilgo.
as a man who had done much, for
the AGRICULTURAL interests OF the state
and deemed it an honor to have the
privilege of having a. brother Rota-
riaA with us ON this occasion.
DR.. Kilgore who addressed meet
ing in the court house yesterday al
ternoon on the subject of coopera-
tive farming, and again last night
in the Chamber of Commerce, ampli-
held his words of yesterday by say
ing there is a vast difference be-
tween the mariner of living in the
country and in the towns, the latter
having as a rule the comforts and
luxuries of life, which the farmer
does not enjoy. He wanted to see
the farmer enjoying all these things.
This being an agricultural section,
he could not have them unless he
could secure sufficient money from
his crops to pay for them. The
only hope lies in cooperative mar
keting. -. ~ i~ 41W 1 aG@NI
