There'll be 

 Big News! 



We'll want to talk — you and I — about our company — what it has 

 done — and what it will do. 



This has been a busy year for our cooperative. Great strides hove 

 been mode in securing more adequate sources of supplies. Additional 

 facilities have been built and purchased. It has been a year of accom- 

 plishments — and a year of problems. 



I'm bringing a friend of mine with me — Charlie Smith, one of your 

 neighbors with lots of good farming experience behind him. He has 

 a story to tell you — some memories of his early years of farming 

 — reasons why he joined his cooperative — what it has done for him 

 — how it looks today — why he considers it an investment in better 

 farming. 



Yes, I want you to meet Charlie Smith and his family in the new 

 film "Your Investment in Better Farming" — a film produced on an 

 Illinois farm, with Illinois people, telling the story of Illinois cooper- 

 atives. It's an important story — one you won't want to miss!
