FARM BUREAU NEWS
OF MUCH INTEREST

(Continued from front page)
tion is the only hope for thej
farmer this year.
What are you going to do!
with that extra wagon load of
watenneh ns that you art
going o raise this year? Take;
th ai to town at the same !
time that every other farmer
in this section is doing the
same thinj- and sell them for
less than they ccst? Whv not]
come in and join the Farm
Bureau, bring every other!
man you know who will have,
surplus watermelons, find out
how many there will be in the
■county and then make some
arrangements to put them to-|
gether and ship to some place'
where you can get what they!
are worth? You may not get,
rich on them, but surely you (
will get more than enough to;
pay your Farm Bureau dues.
Learn to cooperate. Get ar
quainted with your neighbor;'
you might like him.
Do you realize that if it
were not for the Farm Bureau
a single hcg would not have
been shipped out of the coun
ty on the cooperative plan this
year? The farm Bureau con
tinued the shipments to shi \
the farmers of the county that
it was doing something and
Was really worth ‘while.
Numbers of farmers have
profited fro.n these shipments
and yet have not come in to
do their part to help things
along. It is sincerely hoped
that every man will come into
the Farm Bureau and do his
part toward helping it along.
No man can afford to give his
time helping the other fellow
unless he gets something in
return. However he can ship
your hogs for you if you are
helping him cut in the same
manner iilonj? some other line.
More cooperation.
TO SHIP CAR OF HOGS
The Farm Bureau will ship
a carload of hogs on the co
operative plan Saturday Mav
21. The shipment will be
made from Batesville. Any
one having hogs to be ship
ped will please send their
name together with the num
ber and weight of the hogs to
the County Agent. When you
bring your hogs in bring
enough corn to feed them two
days.
J. B. DANIELS,
County Agent.

Farm Bureau Will
Meet Saiurday, 14
The Independence County
Farm Bureau will meet in
regular session at the Cham
rbe of Commerce at Batesville
on Saturday May 14, at ten
o’clock A.M.
Business of importance will
be considered at this meeting
and it is desired that not only
every member be present, but
every Farmer of the county is
cordially invited to attend, as
our meetings are held with
open doors.
We call attention to the j
fact that House-wives are j
eligible to membership in the!
Farm Bureau and are cordi
ally invited to attend our I
meetings and are especially!
urged to attend the next meet
ing as a proposition will be j
considered in which every
house-wife of the county
should be much interested.
.J. B. Daniels, our county
agent, is on the job and seems
to be the right man for the
place; but let him try ever so
hard, he can’t do much good
unless you give him opportu
nity to do so.
Please bear in mind the fact
that Mr. Daniels is not em
ployed by the county, but by
The Farm Bureau, so if you
need or desire his help you
should become a member of
The Bureau, and this you owe
not only to yourself, but your
county.
The Farm Bureau is being
carried on by a few men who
have the welfare of the coun
try and successful farming at
heart. Will not you lend a
Helping hand and become one
of the number? The Farm Bu
reau needs you and you need
The Farm Bureau still worse;
than it needs you, if you real
ly are a farmer.
Don’t forget the date, May,
14, at 10 o’clock A.M. and be
sure to be on hand.
Say let us have a goodly
number of ladies at this meet
ing.
