The farmers can have work done that they would not have been fi nancially able to have done other wise and will In turn have a ready market for the produce that they could not have sold otherwise. "Under this system," It Is said, "the farmers control the destiny of Union county. They are the 'wealthy class since they have the largest supply of that which Is necessary to get cer tificates."
