0 F MARKETS over which now he has little control—A REA­
SONABLE MARGIN OF I ROFIT, which all other business expects and gets. These things cannot be secured by each farmer
acting individually. They must be secured through a well-financed organization. The Farm Bureau has three parts in its organiza­

Watch Papers for Details and Places of Public Meetings
The Multnomah County Farm Bureau helps solve all local problems of production, distribution, home economics, and better farm
life generally. The Oregon Farm Bureau is the state-wide voice of the farmer bureau members in legislation, economics, market-
JPflustria! ana allied interests. The American Farm Bureau Federation is the masterful organization which represents you,
Mr. rarm ei, in the seats ol the mighty at Washington, in all State capitals, and wherever regulatory and administrative commis­
sions are sitting.
Membership in the Multnomah County Farm Bureau entitles you to all the benefits of three links of the perfected plan. The mem­
bership tee is $5.00 a year, for life, with a provision which permits withdrawal after one year. The drive starts Monday, March
7, and continues just one week. Membership men will call upon you at your farm to see you and take your membership, as well
as to explain the full details of the Farm Bureau work from County to Nation. Be ready for them when they call. They are,
