Farmers Meeting at Frederick Highlights County Farm Drive
Harry H. Bleck notes the Maryland Agricultural Society meeting in Frederick drew few Caroline farmers aside from the county agent. The constitution was amended to require a county bureau with 100 members and a ten dollar annual member basis, with most dues to the state. He warns locals to mobilize a three year commitment if drives begin. The Preston Produce Growers Association and York Imperial apple pooling ideas were discussed, along with crop improvement lectures, and remarks by Governor Ritchie, J R Howard, Arthur Rule, and Secretary Wallace on farm legislation and cooperative marketing. The piece ends urging self-help for farmers while praising Frederick County’s farming reputation and Frederick City’s developments.
