A. Cave as temporary president and Perry B. Bush as temporary secre tary, and a call was issued for another and larger meeting to be held at the Court House Saturday afternoon, Sep tember 28th, at four o’clock, at which time it is hoped that farmers, both white and colored, who market their produce at Barnwell will be in attend ance. Quite a substantial acreage was rep resented at Friday’s meeting, but in order of the association to get the best results it is necessary that the smaller farmers also become members, as it is this class that will benefit the most from such an organization. The larger producers can truck their cukes to other markets if prices being paid y buyers here are unsatisfactory, but most cases the farmer who has only few crates to sell is forced to accept whatever is offered.
