part in telling the Farm Bureau story to
farmers and the public.
Consequently, we shall issue next
week a Special Farm Bureau Edition
which will review in detail the history
and the achievements of the Farm Bur-
eau-locally, in the state and nationally.
The Edition will be profusely illustrated
and will contain material of interest and
value not only to the farms Of the COM
munity but to business men and the gen
eral public as we'll.
This special edition will be gotten out
in cooperation with the Ramsey County
County Farm Bureau, and copy of it
will be mailed to every farmer in the
county. Although the circulation of the
World that week will be almost double
its regular circulation, only the regular
price for advertising will be charged.
The edition will be much on the order Of
the Wiwanis Club published several
weeks ago, and although quite large
amount of advertising can be carried,
several pages have already been reserv-
ed, and when the available space is sold
no more ads can be accepted. Business
men in Devils Lake and other parts of
the county who have a message they de-
sire to deliver to all the farmers of the
county should get busy at once, reserve
their space and get their copy in at the
earliest possible moment
The Devils Lake world., 1922-11-01

Two years ago the Farm Bureau took
shape as national movement in agri-
culture.
In that brief space has been welded
together the American Farm Bureau
Federation, the largest farmers organi-
zation ever builded in the history of the
world, with more than million farmers
working in an organized way to promote
the best interests of agricultural through
nearly 1000 county farm bureaus and 46
state farm bureau federations.
Organized agriculture injects an i'm
portant new factor into the industrial
life Of today and tomorrow In the past,
organized business and organized labor
have been the two great and powerful
forces. The farmers strength had been
scattered, unorganized and inefficient.
Now comes, the Farm Bureau, an in
fluential, intelligent, organized farm
movement built to meet in every par
ticular the needs of farmers. It is an
association of farmers, run by farmers,
for farmers-united to carry out the
broad, vital program of lifting agricul-
ture to better business basis.
The Farm Bureaus Importance is
something we have not fully realized.
Yet it's achievements and it's future are
so vital that The World wishes to do it's
