Farmers Tribute TO Hoover

Few indeed are the men found in the
service Of this country who possess the
administrative and organization capacity,
and the ability to achieve great things, to
the extent that Herbert Hoover possesses
them.
His valuable services to agriculture
and the farmer; his marked and out
standing characteristics making for Sue
cess; have won for him the appreciation
of farmers everywhere and the following
tribute expressive of a multitudinous
opinion, was published in the Saturday
Evening Post, issue of April IA, 1928;
"Had he been made Secretary Of Ar
ricMIfare he wOHld have done for the
farmers eVeI more than he has done
for the manufacturers and business.
Friends of the farmer openly lament
that they could nor draft his coNStMc.
tive leadership for the cause Of Ggri-
culture. No other man in america could
haze done 80 much to put American
farming on a sound basis of DESCRIBED
and permanent prosperity"
