The Mail Tribune believes that a large and well organized Farm i.ureau in Jackson county is not only a necessary medium of business ".ettcrment for the farmer, but by improving the condition of the farmer, will improve the material conditions of the community as a whole. This is essentially an agricultural country, and will so long remain. Whatever benefits the farmer benefits everyone. This paper therefore is glad" to give its liearty-support to this cam paign, and will do everything within its power to make it a com plete success.

IT IS A ltLKAK nml dismal day on which I write this v that reeks of gloom and woe; I hear the tireless wi What the Farm Bureau Will Do Ily A. t Joy, President. Five years ao it was my privilege to F-rve as president of a new farm institution, the fim Farm Bureau in Oregon. I find upon taking up the work now thai I have a different task bfforv mc. Then we were fimply a body of pa triotic farmers doinp our tut toward winning: the war. Today we are a part of a ureal state organization and through the state we make op a unit In the Federal Farm bureau. As a onunty we have accomplished rome real and lasting work. as a state we have, helped to put in motion agencies that are bringing many extra dollars to Oregon farmer?;, as a na tion we are prvin; the farmer's in terests in a very aubstamal way. There is a large fi Ul itofore us and there is but one thing for the Jack son county farmer to "do, '"give his suspenders a hitch antf wade in. Here lit the county.-, especially, we plan to- make the year I3 a year of substantial work fur ih pood of Jackson county farmers. We plan to work from the ground up. We have planned this Farm Bureau week for a better Jackson county. We ask that you read carefully the articles that will appear each day on the subject of Farm Burc&u work and we feel sure that you will be con vinced when, the we.-k. is over that the movement is. worthy of your support. All BooMln? ToprtJier. Today, it requires no argument to convince the average farmer that the only way that ho can hope to hold his own and make a place for him self as a man anion;: mnn in to or-1 ganlze. Industry of all kinds Iff or ganized. hear more from this club later. Considerable attention will be given the organization of calf, pi? and corn clubs and Jackson county should rate high in these three clubs. Many of the boys and girls of Med frd and Ashland, where it is dif ficult to kep calves and impossible to keep pigs are anxious to take rabbit. garden and poultry projects. Any hoys or girls interested in dairy work v.i',1 have a wonderful opportu nity in taking the dairy. herd record keeping proj-ct. in which they obtain the milk, butter-fat and feed records of at li a.'d two cows for a period of six months and the scoring- of four dairy" cows and two dairy barns. There is no reason why every com munity it: the county could not nnd should not have a dab of some na ture. If your district docs bettt-r with !ivstock than crops, why don't you parents cr community leaders help the young foiks get started with a dairy or beef ciub, a pig club, a sheep or goat club? Or if your district raises good corn or potatoes and most pans of Jack son county do. if vegetables do well and the girls want to take the canning project such clubs can be started at once. I Yesterday's Oregonian told some-! thing of the club movement in the! sa'.e and the history of the progress! of the state club leader, Mr. II. C. j Seymour in building up boys and! girl.:' club work in Oregon. The zrtMe showed pictures of interest in! the work among which wa or.? cf the livestock Judging teams at the! state fair, amor.ff which are three! members of the Taknt Pig club from ; this coumy. ' ? . ? i j The article also tells hew the ten I winners at the state fair in 1314 were j awarded trips to the world s fair at j Pan Francisco, and how two boys : from this county were two of the ten chosen to go. Audrey Meyer was sent on the strength of his potato exhibit I and Claus Charley with his corn. This! was a number of years ago, but let's show the state that we can stiil grow i potatoes and corn down here. f During the time Mr. Seymour has been in charge of the club work of the Mate, leader throughout the Fnited States have co-operated in working out a standard club plan, ob taining local leaders for all clubs and obliging all members of a club to carry on the same project. I'nder this pun. an element of competition is The Farm Uunau helped thf Farm Bureau exchange to gei onto its feci and through it the farmer is yetting more money for his produce, grain. and t-pgic especially, and on the other hand, he is buying1 certain of his sup plies at a savins, through the ex- I change. men i v. r- i !....,. i tablets 84, Be sure you get '; 'SB The box bears this sig stantially in keeping a home dt'mon- Istration agent in the county, and we fare richer in rosy cheeked boys :;nd gins because of her work.

We are rieher in better dred farm women ar.d children, the farm fruit cellar is richer in ail kinds of canned vegrtab!:-s, meats and fruits because of the work of this home demonstra tion ag-nt. These five years of Farm Bureau work in the county have proven well worth the effort they have cost,. and the money that has been invested. Judging- from its past work the nex: five years of Farm Bureau work in the county should mean a cour.'.y s'.ill richer not only in bank deposits, but richer in prosperous farmers, happy farm homes, contented furm wiws and mothers ar.d healthy, robust farm boys and girls growing up to take the places of their fathers and mothers on the farm.

And there are countless nutos stuck, up to their fenders in the muck, while owners stand aghast; and I can fancy how they bless, in words of emphasis ami sress. the rain that drizzles past.
