SOME FACTS ABOUT THE FARMERS FEDERATION The Farmers Federation creates a market for all the produce the farm er can produce, paying him a cash price for his products on delivery to the Federation warehouse. It also sells the farmer his feed, fertilizers, seeds, etc. The Farmers Federation is a stock company, incorporated under the laws of N. C., therefore it is reliable. The stock sells for SSO per share, with liberal terms of payment. The farmers have absolute control of the organization, as none except the common stockholders vote, and there is only one vote to each stock holder regardless of the number of shares held by him. A warehouse will be erected at Spindale, with a special poultry dept., a potato curing house and a dept. for all other products of the farm. The Farmers Federation of Bun comb county began business Jan. 1, 1921, with $3,000 dollars capital. Now they have nearly a half million dollars capital. During that year they did $54,000 business, this year they will do approximately one million dollar business. The farmers of Buncomb county have faith in the federation, and if it prospers in this county the farmers much have faith in it, buy stock in it, and do business with it. Meetings in the interest of the fed eration will be held at the following places: Ellenboro, Friday, Nov. 13, 7:30 p. m. Hollis, Sat., Nov. 14, Mt. Vernon, Nov. 17, Mt.
