viso to bring in a report at the next
meeting recomending certain things
which were vigorously discussed. The
Tomato Growers’ Association, of South
River, was well represented at the
meeting and discussed their meeting
and action taken a week ago.

description of the nature and his sus
picions. Mr. Irving was County Agent
in Georgia for two years.
It was decided to hold a meeting
twice a month for the present, namely,

rive at various conclusions and to in
crease their membership. Farmers
cannot afford to be outside of this club
if it is possible for them to join. Mat
ters affecting the pocketbook of the
farmer will be discussed and action
taken to prevent the everlasting leak
so prevalent in the farmers’ pocket
book.

Messrs. J. O. H. Fowler, Fred W. Bau
sum, John A. Carr, G. W. Sears, George
Carter, H. C. Burner, Luther Nichols.
