REPORT PROGRESS WITH BEET ASSN. Committees soliciting beet growers of Orange and Los Angeles-cos for an association are reporting good progress according to Farm Advisor Wahlberg. "It will take considerable talk and real hard work to get the growers into a live organization and appreciate their strength in cooperative effort, but we find them more receptive now than ever before," he says "because they feel quite dissatisfied in several ways. Labor and crop returns are their chief grievances." The organization committee will meet at the Farm Bureau office Thursday afternoon, at 2 p.m. at Santa Ana to review the progress of the committees. A national convention of beet growers has been called by the American Federation of Farm Bureaus at Chicago for Jan. 17. Representatives from every beet growing section in the U.S. will be there to work out a national project of combining the growers of the several states for the purpose of studying marketing and field problems and put the industry on a stable basis. The local association has requested of the California Federation of Farm Bureaus that one of their number be sent to represent So Calif. growers. The delegate will probably be appointed at the committee meeting Thursday in the Farm Bureau office. Another growers' meeting will be held at the Westminster school house Wednesday, Jan. 1, 7:30 p.m. The growers of this section will be given an opportunity to join the association. Among the speakers will be J. P. Britt, Deputy State Market Director; Prof. L. B. Smith, of Berkeley; H. E. Wahlberg, Farm Advisor; M. Chuml, Tustin, and J. A.

FARM BUREAU OPENS DRIVE FOR MEMBERS With everything auguring well for increasing its membership to 2000 or more, the Orange-co Farm Bureau's 1921 campaign for membership opened today, in conjunction with the remaining bureaus of the country, and from now until the end of the week the volunteer canvassers will be busy making the rounds of their various districts, and every farmer who can be seen will be asked to join. The membership dues are $5 per year and the purpose of the campaign is two-fold; first, to make the Farm Bureau even more representative of agriculture than now by increasing the membership from 1000 to 2000, and second, to increase the Bureau's revenue to a point where it will be in position to accomplish much more for its members than has been possible in the past. Full confidence that both purposes will be accomplished thru the earnest work of the canvassers is expressed by H. B. Woodrough, membership director, who says farmers are rallying to the Farm Bureau as never before, knowing that it is well planned, well organized, and with the almost unanimous support of the farmers will be in position to accommodate.
