CHAPTER V 



UNITE, O LOYAL FARMERS 



Unite, O loyal farmers, 



Beneath the banner true 

 Of equity and justice, 



That shall thy foes subdue. 

 Cooperate with others, 



And helped by numbers' might, 

 Go forward into battle 



For liberty and right. 



Unite, O loyal farmers, 



Fear not the active foe ; 

 The right shall ever conquer 



For those who reap and sow. 

 Fair Justice, ever smiling, 



Holds out her hands to all 

 Who follow in her footsteps, 



In answer to her call. 



Unite, O loyal farmers, 



Waste not your time in rest, 

 Nor talk of mighty efforts 



If money you possessed ; 

 But seek for higher prices, 



Reward for toil and care, 

 Let nothing you discourage, 



But all things do and dare. 



Unite, O loyal farmers, 

 And in one happy band 



Press onward for the conquest 

 Of this, your native land.
