Carteret Couniy News-Times ;-:,;y'.vA Merger Of Beaufort New (est. 1912) ft The Twin Cty Times (est. 1936) WMTORIAL PAGE t ; . TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1948 : Spokesman oi Agriculture, the Farm Bureau i ' With an address by Commissioner of Agriculture D. S. Colt-I- ne, the Carteret county farm bureau membership drive will be . launched Wednesday night at the court house. Goal for this year's drive, 550 members, means that approxi mately one-fourth of the country's entire population will be affil : iated with the state and national farm bureau organization. '22 Since its formation in 1936 the North Carolina Farm bureau fys been "out in front" in every forward looking movement un Strtaken to help the farmer. The voice of the Tar Heel organ isation has been and continues to be heard in every matter '?. Concerning the farmer. Jn its 2-year record of service to farmers through sound, active, even militant leadership, the North Carolina Farm bureau has helped every resident of the state. Among Ihe foresighled programs sponsored and developed by the North Carolina Farm bureau are the Flue-Cured Tobacco Cooperative Stabilization corporation and Tobacco Associates, incorporated. The former was originated by Farm Bureau lead ers to guarantee the flue-cured farmer stable prices for his prod uct The wisdom of setting up such a program is proved by this fact: nearly 300,000 tobacco growers have joined the corporation at a membership of $5 each and benefited from its floor price guarantee since 1946. Tobacco Associates, incorporated, formed in 1947 to protect and increase the export market of flue-cured tobacco, has already accomplished much toward its goal. It has succeeded in pro moting the sale of millions of pounds of flue-cured and Burley tobacco abroad. North Carolina Farm bureau welcomes the cooperation of other progressive minded groups and individuals, such as was given in development of Stabilization and Tobbacco associates. North Carolina Farm bureau is determined to continue its pace setting stride in matters that effect the rarmer. "All-out organ ization" is a powerful tool that more than 70,000 of North Caro lina's farmers have added to their agricultural arsenal compara tively recently. It is a tool that grows in effectiveness as the number of farmers guiding Its path increase. This tool will be ' (Q familiar asset to many thousand additional Tar Heel farmers in the years to come. More than 1,276,000 farm families in 45 states make up the American Farm bureau one of the largest and most influential "family groups" anywhere. Starting with the small community, the farm bureau is or ganized by leading farmers. The community unit is represented by its ablest members in the county farm bureau. In turn, the counties send their most progressive members to state farm bu reau conventions as voting delegates. The voting delegates, jnsipred by the wishes of "the folks -back home" and fully aware of farm problems confronting their neighbors and themselves, set the policies of the state group. 2'hese delegates also impress state farm bureau leaders with the estiments of those on the community aaitounty1iffVjef'wio pfoct ed them. " AiilVfT 'iV: ) . Taking their cue from the voting delegates, state farm bu rl treau leaders, Including members of the various commodity com (( tnittees, exchange views and Information with similar represen- ftives from farm bureaus in other states. Four times each year the American Farm bureau board of 1 directors and the commodity committees meet formally to em- ace in me general larm oureau program the latest directives from le farm families who are "Farm Bureau." At the same time. prosentatives from the various state groups are brought up to late on recent developments n i Washington and elsewhere, wherever agricultural matters are under consideration. Democratic in every phase of its organization, Farm Bureau is truly the "spokesman of American agriculture." Side by side, the membership and leadership f the organization Will show over and over again that "all-out organization" of farmers means PROGRESS for rural and city folks alike. Credit Goes to Miss Amy Muse The grand story on "Miss Lottie" Sanders, reprinted from the Christian Advocate in Tuesday's paper, was really written by Miss Amy Muse, Beaufort, who was at one time editor of The Beaufort News and Is well-known for her literary accomplish ments. The "byline appearing over the story in the Advocate was that of the department executive under which Miss Lottie's story came. We didn't think a "foreigner" could write as .delightful a piece as that. To Miss Amy we say a sincere "thank you" for an excellent story.
