Ladies and Gentlemen: Do
you think the war is over and
he victory won? If so, you are
badly deceived and we will have
no victory to celebrate, The

people generally get What they
want and are willing to pay for;
We farmers of Polk county have
begun to ao sometnmg m
own interest and in the in-
tprest of the consuming public.
Whether or not we succeed ; will
depend upon ourselves. If every
subscriber of stock will only
STICK and become a booster, we
will CT0W into a great ana pow
erful corporation with strength
sufficient to develop Polk county.
Looking over the list of sub-
bribers, it looks as if It could
not fail, and yet any set of men
and women can fail if they lack
faith and enthusiasm in what
they undertake. -
Now don't anybody get in too
big hurry. It takes God one
hundred years to grow an oak
tree. A mushroom will grow in
single night. We are short of
means and can grow only as we
can get the means and properly
apply them. We are undertak
ing a great task ; one that intend
ed to help every individual stock
holder, and everyone who deals
with our corporation. In Order
to do this, we must have energy
to go forward, wisdom to do the
ngnt ana proper .thing, ana pa-
tience to De willing to wait a
reasonable time for results. Now
we must not think as stockhold
ers that we have ho duty to per
form, our duties have just begun.
The directors ' can do "nothing
whatever without the solid in
dividual cooperationof the stock
holders. We must remember
that we have voluntarily entered
into a cooperative marketing cor
poration under the corporation
laws of North Carolina. We are
all bound together by ties both
w iaw ana tnendship. JNq - one
is bound to another any further
than the other is bound to him!
Ail our interests are tied up to
gether. ISTow, the all important
thing to do, is for every share-
j ....
uwuer in our corporation to go
to his neighbor and induce him
to go in the corporation and help
make it a great success. - Not
until every farmer, large and
small, in Polk county joins, will
the full strength of the associa
tion be known and the greatest
benefits to all be secured.
J. R. Sams, County Agent. .
P. S. Every member of the
plk County Farm Federation
should become a subscriber to
e Polk County News. We
jfoust have an organ and this is
ur only chance, unless wc sub
scribe the cash, buy a press and
erhPly some one to publish one.
