The Dairy. In 1919 we had three
milk cows which could not give milk
enough to feed one calf. We also had
six calves that had been obtained from
the government. To-day we have fifty
cows and heifers. and about rs calves
|of different sizes, two pure-bred Hol-
stein bulls. and a pure-bred HEREFORD
bull, and are getting 50 much milk that
we are putting in a small creamery Of
our own to make butter, besides hav-
ing all the milk we can use. We have
built several new buildings at the dairy
ranch and two slices.
/ There are about fifty head Of range
goats.
In 1919 we had one boar, five sows
and about thirty pigs. We now have
ia full brother to State Fair prize boar
and about twenty brood sows a total
of about 200 in all, pigs, shoats and
hogs. We have built hog houses and
fenced off hog pasture and increased
our facilities for better herds, to a
large extent.
Farm Equipment AT that time our
equipment was valued at $ll20.75.
To-day we have about 20 head Of
mules and horses, six traction engines,

Colony's Manager Reports
Gratifying Advancement

The policy Of The present Colony
management has been to take our emit
side friends into our confideBee and
give them a true story Of our progress
through the Daily Diary and ii
keeping with this policy | am now co.
ing 70 give YOU true story of Che
last two and one-half years Of our pro-
gress II \ short statement, and also the
necessary support we are calling for in
order to carry out our plans. Sour
ilous statements have been printed and
sent broadcast, letters Of hard luck
tales have been written and the very
worst Of stories have been told, in or
der to prevent our progress, and many
Of our friends write in to ask questions
about these statements made BY mis-
guided or even. vicious persons who, for
one reason or another, wish to prevent
the progress of the Colony and its
cause. Most Of these fault-finders
have been mislead and have SEM
blance Of a grievance that has been en-
larged upon BY real enemies 81 our
movement. Even with this continuous
attack, ever since the Colony was or
gained, nearly eight years ago, we
have succeeded.
This will be a partial report Of the
practical progress made In very re-
cent and short period.
In the fan Of 1919. the Colony did
not own, free Of incumbrance, single
acre IF land, Or building; its cattle.
hogs, mules, horses and its chickens
and its crops were all mortgaged, Just
one industry was then in successful OPP
Grafton. And a partial crop failure
had marked our years hard work. The
people were discouraged and ready to
leave; some did leave, honestly be-
,lieving we were unable to rise above
our doubtful condition and again get
on our feet here. All kinds Of debts
faced us, and we were given no assist
ance by our neighbors, who thought
we were hopelessly involved. Some Of
them, not. understanding our ideals.
were willing to go to almost any limit
to destroy our community.
Some Of us decided to stick, sink or
swim, together; and here are the re-
suits.
We now own about 1000 acres Of
land and all our houses and other
buildings. among them concrete
building that would to-day cost about.

soon, while land can yet be had At
low cost and before titanic struggle
IS made through blood and tears for
the ownership Of the earth. The strug-
gle is on now; millions want to see a
peaceful solution. We have that soIu-
ton and we call upon you to do your
part now. This statement is hastily
written. Il does not tell the story Of
our accomplishments BY half; but il

Of real co-operators as to what can be

should act at once,

sands Of dollars to our community each
year from now on.

tries that are running that can not BIZ
considered commercial as yet, which
shall not here mention. But wish Il
make a general summing up. Since the
fall Of 1919 the industries which have
been established. 81 revived, are the
dairy, the store, the butcher shop, ths
peanut butter factory, the saw mill, The
brick factory. the planning mill. the va.

broom factory, the steam laundry, the
fertilizer plant. the print shop, and cot
ton spinning, These have all been pui
on their fees and made going concerns

so NSsEs 10 imnSess on your minds thai
in 1873, we did not own one foot Of
land. or building. not COW, a mule,
a farm implement, or any Of our ma
chinery or live stock-or crop
which was not mortgaged. In fact we
were bankrupt. We had no credit any
where. We owned thousands Of dol
lars on bills and notes that most people
thought would never be paid. During
these two years and half we have
paid off all of those commercial bills.
We have paid for 1000 acres Of land.
We have secured title 10 all Of the
buildings upon the place, and bought
and paid for more equipment and re-
leased the mortgages upon our crops,
our dairy stock, live stock, machinery,
etc, and have increased the assets Of
this community more than $3.50, 900,
and have also relieved ourselves Of
thousands Of dollars Of debts that our
comrades figured had hopelessIy invoIv-
ed Us. We now have considerable
money due us on notes which are se-
cured by first mortgage on land which
we have sold.
But this material gain is not the big
gest gain Of all. The greatest accom-
plishment as see tic has been in the
fact that we have established our cred

scnption. We have the confidence Of
our neighbors, some of whom three
years ago were ready to wipe us out,
even with violence. We have gained
the confidence of our own people here
at home. who to-day are loaning us
money without asking for security.
They are loaning it solely upon the con
fidence they have in the institution as
it stands to-day. Many Of the old
timers will verify the statement that
two and half years ago, they would
not have loaned the Colony a cent.
To-day they are trusting us with
their dollars, to the extent Of several
