COMMITTEE APPOINTED. \ j To Call Farmers Together to Organize | by Precincts. To the Farmers of Williamsburg County: Having been elected as county chairman of the Farmers' Association of Williamsburg county, I feel a deep sense of the obligations and duties that devolve upon me as the head of this great and important movement. Now, it has been said time and agaiu thai farmers as a whole will not stand to their obligations when they take them. This is for you to answer. I have appointed the following gentlemen to call the farmers together on Saturday, February IS, at their respective primary precincts to organize l>y appointment of committee to canvass the territory, if necessary, to get every farmer to sign a pledge in reference to reducing acreage and fertilizers at least 25 per cent.
