Success Attends
Countrywide Meets
OF County Council
nv T. A. Patrick

tBy d. "A. IdtElCk.J
The County Council meetings held
in various parts of the county last
week were very successful from
every standpoint. Owing to the fact
that Mr.. C. w. Watson was called
to Arkansas and Mississippi for big
conferences and meeting in the CO.
operative cotton marketing organiza-
lions, it was impossible for him to
be in the meetings as advertised.
But this absence of our chief speaker
was easily supplied with local tai
ent. Mr.. Joe Stewart lett his farm
and business and made all of the
meetings. Mr.. Stewards talks were
decidedly to the point. He had par
ticipated not only i'm the organization
of the County Council but in the
benefits that accrue from its various
activities. He told the farmers in
these meetings what the County
Council had done for him and show
ed them what it could do for them
The interest in all the meetings
was fine. Farmers had heard about
the County Council and had read
of it in the paper but they had not
been told. The work of the County
Council was endorsed in all the
meetings.
Many interesting talks were made
by the farmers themselves in the
meetings. ESQ. j. w. Ligan made
very excellent talk in the Blood
River meeting. Esq. Ligan said
that farmers would have to cultivate
their crops differently and market
their farm products differently. His
opinion was that our young people
must get these ideas now and put
them into practice. He gave as an
example the simple little matter of
eggs Housewives in his section are
getting only Is cents per dozen
for eggs. The Nashville price for
these same eggs is 80 cents Thus
the producer was getting only half
the value of his eggs. Plans could
be worked out along this line, that
would save the housewives consider
able money on their eggs.
The attendance in the meetings
was all that could be asked for.
in attendance at the four meetings.
There was sufficient interest among
several farmers that induced them
to enquire as to what it cost TO
become a member of the County
Council. We were not out for mem
bers. Nor do we want member
