Get together, work together and join in a state and national way. There is only
one way to get into the State and National Federation of Farm Bureaus, and that way
is through the County Farm Bureau. Every unit must be organized.
Have you ever had an opportunity to belong to a farmer organization that had a
'local county body to work through and a state body and a national body? If so, was
that body strong in numbers and strong in fniance, so that' it was really capable of
getting results? Be serious with yourself now. Is there today such an organization
for farmers that is so organized and growing so fast as the Farm Bureau?
IT IS WINNING FARMERS LITERALLY BY THOUSANDS
Will you be one to join or will you stay out and continue to say that farmers -will
not organize? While you are knocking they are organizing as they never have be
fore; 120,000 in Iowji now; 102,000 in Illinois, who pay $10 and $15 per year; 90,000 in
Michigan.
CLACKAMAS COUNTY IS A GOOD COUNTY; AT LEAST CLACKAMAS COUNTY
FARMERS SHOULD JOIN DO FARMERS WANT THIS ORGAN
IZATION? ABSOLUTELY!
There are now approximately 1,500,000 farm families represented in the member
ship of the American Farm Bureau Federation. Thirty-five State Farm Bureau Fed
erations have grown strong enough in members and money to take -part in the A. F.
B. F. Nearly 1500 County Farm Bureaus are now actively carrying on their work.
The Farm Bureau is far beyond the experimental stage, in county, state and national
work. You do not need to wait for results. They are already being accomplished. Isn't
is a sensible, business-like thing for you to join this big, national farm organization?
30 FARM SOLICITORS IN THIS COUNTY
Every one of whom is a thorough believer in the Farm Bureau, will come to see
you on your own farm the week of February 21 to 26.
They will ask you to join with them in this great effort to put all farm folks on an
equality with those in other walks of life.
THE CLACKAMAS COUNTY FARM BUREAU AND THE OREGON STATE FARM
BUREAU have agreed unanimously that the Greater Farm Bureau in county, state and
nation is worth $5.00 per year for each family, or it isn't worth anything. And further
more, no one is taken for a member for just one year. If it is worth anything it is
worth suporting for a period of years.
