If the farmers who make
tobacco will take advantage of
the opportunity that is offered
them by the Farmers
ed Tobacco Company, in a few,
very few, short years they will
have the richest organization of
farmers in America, and in the
accomplishment of things the
most powerful. The tobacco
farmers are waking up to a real-
of their importance and
are seeing advantage of
effort. It is the ambition
of the Farmers Consolidated To-
Company to erect a
structure that will prove a
monument to the tobacco far-
and a credit to their
try.

corn fields from which barrels

like it will easily yield a bale per
acre. To the writer the homes
