HOW TO KILL AN ORGANIZATION. 

 By Theodore Olpp. 



1. Miss as many meetings as you 

 can. 



2. If you are a member don't think 

 of attending. 



3. If you do attend, be sure to find 

 fault with the officers and fellow mem- 

 bers. 



4. Decline all offices, as it is easier 

 to criticise than do things. 



5. Get sore if you are not put on 

 a committee. 



6. And if put on, fail to act. 



7. If the chair asks for your opin- 

 ion, be sure to keep silent, but later 

 tell others what should have been 

 done. 



8. Do as little yourself as possible, 

 and when others roll up their sleeves 

 to help things along, howl because 

 the clique is running things. 



9. Delay in paying your dues as 

 long as you can and delay answering 

 all requests. 



10. Never bother about getting new 

 members; let George do it. — Market 

 Growers' Journal. 



WHO IS WINNING THE FIGHT — YOU OR 

 YOUR PLANT ENEMIES?

 Shrubs, Flowering Plants, Vegetables, Palms. Bay 

 Trees, Exotic Plants, Etc., Poultry, Animals, Etc.
