B. W. Kilgore, director of the North Carolina agricultural exton don service, and Dr. Clarence' Poc, iditor of The Progressive Farmer, reached for thr Cseta he had given md endorsed the vicars he had pre dated. The farmers did not know 8a ylre but they did know Kilgore and Pee and were willing to back them. At tit* tail end *t the convention, Dr. J. Y.

Carry Mareage Hem The goapel of co-operation aa pro claimed by Poe, Kilgore and Joynar waa carried back home by thoae at tending the convention and it baa bean burning brighter end brighter until today, twenty monthi later. It hae become a reality. Ita remarkable growth baa been made possible by the nmuoal facilities enjoyed today for communication, which la knitting the world late one harmonious whole and which will one day break down al barriers and bring peace la place of the strife that has tom the world asunder for all three thousands of yean. This co-operative Idea has become eo (Irmly planted In North Carolina that no oc« can b« found to combat axeapt thoac who hav« a purely selfish Internet to aarva. It la recognised aa the only hope for the grower of cot ton and tobacco and should Urn pres ent organisation fail, it would eat the old State back a generation. BUT IT WILL NOT FAIL. The man who arc putting their hearts and souls into this mowmrnt have th« same spirit that tha man of the im mortal Thirtieth Division had wh«r they broke through tha Iliniltoburi Ha*.
