that the farmers problems were in
directly theirs, since California is
primarily an agricultural state
whose prosperity along industrial
and commercial lines rests directly
upon the prosperity of the farmer,

cumulative strength, Blackburn

ments of the state farm bureau: law
and utilities, tax research, automo-
Bile insurance, organization, home.

active cooperation with the work of
the federal farm board.
Fortyfive of the IS counties in
the state are organized in the fed
Grafton, representing over 10000 of
the farmers of California. and the
number is constantly increasing. In
conclusion, the speaker urged that
the work of the state farm bureau
be carried on by its members in
order that its strength might be
greater stating that each farmer
owes to his occupation a decent con-
tribution in time, money and effort.
j. L. Dubois was chairman of the
day, introducing Blackburn and pre-
siding at the program session. A
particularly enjoyable feature of
the program was the group of songs
