TOBACCO GROWERS ASSOCIATION
AIC0mfLlShES ktSULI5.

The large crowd in attendance
at the tobacco growers meetlng
here Tuesday last Is evidence Vi
the TACT that the farmers Of this
county are waking up and taking
due appraisal OF the conditions
that lace them. IL is an evi-
dence That tile farmers realize
and appreciate that successful
and paying markets cannot De
had BY eacn one going bis own
way, grpm6ling ABOUT prices ana
swallowing what he can get, but
rather that success can be ac-
complished only through organI-
zatlon and cooperation. FMS is
well recognized tact.
The laborlng man In the fac
tories, in the mines, on tas rail-
roads, and such other and KIN
bred avccatons have forced NV
ing wages to be paid them,
through organization and coop
GRAFTON. What is true of their
efforts eau be made equally true
with the farmer.
In view of the fact that the
farmer leeds the world, 1t might
be properly said in ordinary
parlance that the farmer has the
world at his mercy, but the OPP
posite seems to nave been his
lot in the past. he has been al
the mercy OF the world. They
are fortunately at last beginning
to awaken and realize the condI-
tons thas confront them and are
gradually taking steps to force
more satisfactory and healthier
Z conditions for themselves,
1t is idle and futile for the far
mers to expect any legislative
body to pass legislation fixing
prices for their commodities.
Good prices and and adequate
markets can be mad only through
the efforts of the farmers them
selves acting in accord ana unity.
In the last analysis the future oi
agriculture lies not in Legislation
but in organization. Organiza-
ton and co operation aloIe has
been responsible for the present
high prices of tobacco. That
this is true cannot be success
fully controverted.
We have urged with all the
energy we could muster, both
by voice and pen, since the Gre
alton of the Tobacco Growers
Association that the farmers
join and give their earnest sup
port and cooperation to make
the purposes for which the Asso-
citation was formed q success.
We have pFacticed what we
preach by joining and CO oper-
ating ourselves.
We now look with pride upon
the wonderful success that the
Association has had thus far.
We believe that our efforts, to-
gether with those of many
others who believed in the Assoc
citation have at last accomplished
great results.
We urge the farmers now to
give the Association even great
er encouragement that it may
continue successful. We urge
every member of the Assocla-
ton to work together in renewed
vigor, Tor with success accom-
plished in one line, we believe
there are other and better things
in store for US. "All together
and all together all the time"
should be our motto.

Ten Commandments For Motorists,

II all motorists would observe the
following Ten Commandments there
would be great reduction in the num-
Der of accidents on the highways;
/. Drive on the right side of the
road; IFS just as good as the left.
2. Slow down when approaching a
cross road; it is nearly as dangerous
as a railroad crossing.
3. Look out for children. You can
never tell what they will do, aad you
are always in the wrong when you hit
one.
4. Try tohelp instead of hindering the
traffic officer; ne's there for your good
and he's got tough job.
5. Be sure your lights are not de-
fective or glaring; IT'S no joke driving
into binding glare, as you know
yourself.
9. Read and obey the warning signs;
they are not put up as ornaments.
Z. If you've got to speed, do ii
where you won't kill anybody but
yourself.
8. When making minor repairs get
all wheels of the pavement and stop
where your car can be seen from both
directions; otherwise you may stop
longer than you anticipated.
9. Speeding al ound corners is
straight route to the hospital. Don't
race past a stopped car. Some day
the jury will call il manslaughter.
TO- Use discretion. The fact that you
had the right of way won't bring any
body back to life, least of all, your
self.

ny Of this years crop is the lowest in

"SnOwsnake" Makes it Easy.

According to O. w. Sayner and
son Silas of the village of Sayner,
locomotlon nowadays with drifted
highways has no terrors for them.
Coming over to Eagle River last
Wednesday in the storm, they al
most made summer time with
their improved "snowsnake". AS
ballast they placed two extra pas
sengers in the box in the rear of
the car. But, from the appear
ance of the aforementioned bal
last" the amount of fine sitting
snow they had accumulated upon
their clothing while viewing the
scenery from the rear, it
was not a holiday vacation for
the fellows. Barring few drifts,
which could be eliminated very
easily, the roads are in fair condi-
ton. This section has only about
fourteen inches of a snowfall all
told on the level.

reduction Of fifty per cent; his work
in behalf Of the war finance corpora
tion and in behalf Of the tariff, the
gift Of the government to the state
of hundreds Of trucks and tractors,
the retention of the Reclamation Of

veterans Of all wars, the appropriation
Of fifty thousand dollars for the Den

Of large number Of state highway
