support Home Town Paper, Bureau

r. I I
The Minnesota Farm Bureau fedora
ton observed Home Town Paper
Week. last week by urging county
farm bureaus and their 1900 township
units throughout the state to cooper.
ate with the newspapers in their com
munities.
cit is only fair to say that the
kind Of support given to the farm
bureau movement by the country news,
papers Of Minnesota merits real sup.
port for the home town paper by
the farmers the Farm Bureau News
Service says in letter received by
the county farm bureau.
1t means that the home papers, in
almost every case, are giving their
farmer readers accurate news of the
big farmers organization in Minnesota
the farm bureau federation with its
$4,000 members. .~< .*- . y
cit means too, that through this sup
port the home town papers are making
it easier for the farm bureau to dc
work Of real benefit to agriculture and
therefore to the state as a whole.'
