M. r- li * What Are Sub-Alliances Doing ? a.: !?!?: J, F. Nlsbot Kelt tor AllUnco Department. 1 We are anxious to know what {the sub-Alliances are doing. Are they all holding regular meetings every - month? Are the members?each and every one?taking a lively personal interest in the work of the Alliance? We are afraid not ; but we don't know, and we would like to have a report now and again from the secretary or the reporter of each Alliance. It is not a theory but a condition that confronts the Alliance at this time We meet a great many men who tell us they are just as good Alliancemen as they ever were, but their subAlliance went down, and they are not members in good standing?hut they would like to see the Alliance succeed. Now, brethren, whose fault is it that your Alliance has gone down or become disorganized? If the Alliance is a good thing?and an are ready to admit that it is?why do we not keep it up? Why has the price of fertilizers advanced? Is it only a legitimate advance, a general rise in price of all commodities, or is it a trust? Now, as far as we can see, there is no necessity for fertilizers to cost so much more than last season If it is an illegitimate combination, then why do the farmers allow it? If the Alliance was as strong numerically and was as determined as it was in 181)3, we would have killed the very idea of a trust We know what we have done in the past, and we know what we could do now and in the future if we would do it. We need one or two earnest, energetic men in each sub-Alliance to push the work. Now, have not we got the energy, my brethren, and will you not take up the work and push it for all it is worth? Wo now make a call for each subAlliance to hold a meeting just as soon as possible and reorganize your sub-Alliance. 1 know you can do it. .Just appoint a day for your meeting, send me a notice and I will have it published, and I believe the members will come out If only li.ve j members are present, that is enough to organize. My brethren, 1 am in earnest about this thing. We need the Alliance now as much, if not more, than at any time in its history. Our county Alliance will meet the second Friday, 13th of April next, and let cvcrv Alliance in the county call a meeting and appoint delegates to that meeting. We are not going to give 111> the light because we cannot | do exactly what we try to d<>. We are going to work on and keep trying. We do good for ourselves and everybody every time we meet. We cannot tell you all we want to tell you ; but just come to the meeting in [April and it will do you good.
