W. Publication date for the new
IN. was set for Jan. 10, 1884. /
p' Now # isn't hard to start get

~. -oi1g regularly eyerv week-that's
s.,"1 trick. We could get out a
nc. - tomorrow. if that's all there
~ 70 r But if we cid that, we
we know where the money
f sU tbe next enc is coming from. |
A. a. # we started to publish the |
~ FARMERS WEEKLY and |
EJr,t continue regularly, then the !
G.Trfrs wouldn't have much con- |
f;5ence in US. You couldn't blame
fhem. could you? i
What we have got to be sure OF
!. that once we start publishing
ne new paper. we will continue it
ovrv week without fail. None
InoT better THAI the boosters of
tbs old Farmers National Walk
iv6 how hard it is to get subs for
naDer. good as it is, if it does
not come cut regularly.
We'll then. how can we be sure
that the FARMERS WEEKLY APP
uars regularly.
There is only one answer. We
have got to have fund laid
aside which will ensure regular
weekly publication at the start.
When the paper gets going for a
while. there is fine chance for 1T
to gain widespread support among
not lust tens but hundreds of thou
ss-ds of busted farmers-that is,
if we all do our work properly.
But for the start, to play safe,
we've got to have fund saved up
How much is needed for safe
start? We have figured out that
the minimum amount Of this nee
essarv fund is $4,000.
Now the question is, how car
We raise this amount of money?
Morev doesn't grow on trees
NOWADAYS. We can't go out int
the fields and pick $4,000 out o.
the sky. If we were like some o.
those barker controlled papers, w
wouldn't have any trouble at all.
But the FARMERS WEEKLY
will speak for no banker class. i
the Interest of impoverished farm
srs, the FARMERS WEEKLY vii
fight the capitalist class tooth an
nail Our supporters are the dir
farmers themselves. And it is t
these supporters we must look fo
aid in starting the paper.
It's no cinch to get the none
We need in the short period W
have. But it can be done if W
al put our shoulders to the whee
It will mean a lot of work; bJ
who among US is not used to hal
work? We have always slave
for the banker ard the food tru
and the tax collector. Now let
put in a bit of work for our ow
cause. Let us put in some re
hard work preparing the groun
Tor the Voice of the Toiling Farr
ers.
Let's see what has to be do
before We start regular public
ton.
We have got to raise $4,000
make certain Of regular public
ton. That has to be raised
March l AT THE LEAST, becau
that is when we hope to beg
regular publication. If we get t
foundation fund ($2,OO0) befc
March land we can if we
give every bit Of our energy
the wOrk-we will begin to publ
REGULARLY before that date.
Every state will have its shs
q the work to do. On the ba
o. what has already been do,
on the basis Of what militant
carnations exist now. we have (
med tentative quotas for eve
state in the country. We q
Wetty sure that these quotas {
not only be fulfilled. but fulfil
oefOre March 1 by our boosters
