This principle is now generally recognized by successful business men. To improve the soil not only benefits the farmers but every business interest. Farmers and soil builders welcome all worthy movements for bettering agricultural conditions. This is the true spirit of CO-OPERATION. . Three of t]io greatest national agencies now at work for this co-operation ara Tim NATIONAL SOIL FERTILITY LEAGLTE, TI1E MIDDLE WEST SOIL IMPROVEnfENT COMMITTEE, THE SOU, IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE OF THE SOUTHERN FERTILI ZER ASSOCIATION. Tliese agencies are stimulating agriculture, commerce* and all.lines of industry ; helping to dignify the great profession of farming; impressing upon all the people that the future prosperity of the nation and all citizens depend upon increasing the pro dactivity of the soil. . The Soil Improvement Committee, recognizing the true value of agricultural ed ucation is now organizing an Educational Bureau which it hopes will^aid farmers to> develop the soil and get the most?out of their labor and their fertilizers. The Soil Im provement Committee has determined that every ton of fertilizer that goes to the far mer shall profit him at least double th? cost, and four times If possible. This can bo done only when the farmer does his part. He must learn how to use fertilizers to the* best advantage and adopt efficient business methods on the faun. To accomplish this the Committee's Educational Bureau will serve the f armera nnd the?pubEc in the following ways: 1st. By correspondence with farmers along all lines of agriculture. 2nd. By keeping before the public the last word on improved methods of farm ing and uses of fertilizers. 3rd. By lecturing*before gatherings of all kinds, farmers' meetings and state and national associations. ,. ? 4th. By publishing bulletins for free distribution^amuus farmers ??4 business* men. , 5th.
