Patronage Dividend For Farm Bureau The highest patronage dividend ever paid farmers o f the- state repre­ senting savings made by them to co­ operative purchasing is now being dis­ tributed among farm bureau-members.

The per cent of the dividend is higher than that ever paid through the organisation, and was made possible by an increase of nearly 75 per cent to volume handled this spring as competed to last, and the dividend figure is over $10,000 more thah that paid to the spring of 1925, the previous high mark for co­ operative purchasing o f this com­ modity. Highland, Stark, Lorain, Colum- bteha, and Mlhoning county farmers will receive the largest shares Of the total dividend! the total check for Highland' county farmers being more than $2809, • Service agents for the farm bureaus to all parts, o f the state, encouraged by the increase this spring are plan­ ning to increase their efforts this fall ahd make tiffs year’s toffnsge of co­ operatively purchased fertilizer the largest ever handled.

Farm Organization Continues Growth Outstanding success o f every oranch of farm bureau activity during the pact few months is opening up opportunities to farmers through organization that tottf* never, been- present before, in the opinion o f W- vM« Anderson o f the Greene County i?arm Bureau. The recent dedication i f the new Farm Bureau Building in lolumbus and tho events surrounding it give~basi*£Or the statement.- -‘More than 2500 new members have oeen added to the organization since the beginning o f this year,” says Mr. Anderson. “Last week the. state organization announced a patronage dividend o f $66,O60( the largest eingle dividend ever paid on oiie spring's volume o f cooperatively purchase fertilizer. The dedication week con­ test of the insurance company brought n more the n ' 2,000 automobile in* surance.policies, a record never equall­ ed by a company which deals with farmers only and nearly all of which came from those .of-one state# “Livestock cooperatives have shown a growth of more than 20 per cent this year. Activities to legislative mat­ ters, in local government, to coopera* tlve financing of business units, in securing rural, electrification, to or­ ganizing for home and community benefits can all be added to the fact that the farm bureau was able to con­ struct its own headquarters largely from reserves o f the organization shows some of the possibilities open.” Future growth o f the organization and the advantages they can secure through it rests entirely on the Ability of farmers to Wor ktogkther, in the opinion of Mr, Anderson. Our leaders are pointing the way to many other mes of activity through which farm­ ers can secure a more stable and pros­ perous agriculture, he eays.
