The constant flow of so many people out of the country and other allied causes have multiplied the difficulties of the pastor in rural districts, and is a matter now receiving general attention. It will be a unique experience to have the ministers of the different denominations to come together for a serious study of this condition. The question is of supreme importance, and every minister and church member should be alive to its seriousness, and will ing to lend his best efforts along definite lines, looking to remedies. An effort will be made to ascertain what the real situation is as a starting point for the discussion. No theorists have been appointed to read long papers and each minister in attendance is expected to bring the results of his study for the benefit of the Conference. Rev. E. O. Watson, D. D., who has had wide experience and who is now giving his energy to the uplift of rural community life, has been requested to act as chairman. The cooperation of every pastor of every denomination is earnestly solicited. The congregation can render a definite assistance by making it possible for the pastor to attend. The railroads have granted special rates for the occasion. Marketing and the Conference. After the crop is made what is to be done with it? Marketing is not so simple as it may seem; first the best prices cannot he had with haphazard unloading on the market. The field must be prepared by co-operation, and low rates must be secured in this way before the farmer with diversified crops can meet competition or the one-crop farmer get a fair return. To dump canteloupes, for example, upon an overloaded market is about as sensible as shooting them at the moon with smokeless powder, for powder is cheaper than freitrht. hills Knmo uooi-o aim farm ers plowed acres of this melon under because the price was too low to pay to ship to market. Disposing of the product clearly needs as much thought as producing it. Now, if farmers and consumers could get nearer together, both would undoubtedly be benefited.

The result of the conference will be to draw market and farm closer together. The conference has been fortunate in securing the services of such men as E. W.

These experts will consider marketing, under such topics as the following: Typical Examples of Loss to Farmers on Account of Poor Marketing:, Creating a Home Market for Home Products, Co-operative Marketing in North Carolina, and Marketing the Cotton Crop. The discussion will be open to all farmers and to any others interested. This is but a part of the program. Other broad topics to be taken up in detail are: Cooperation for Rural Development; The Part of the rk..F/.k o 1 1?? .
