To the Farmers cf Marshall County,

Plymouth, Ind., March 12, '04. At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Farmers' Institute this day at the office of C. T. Mattingly, in Plymouth, Ind., it was decided that in view of the liberal subscriptions made by the business men in Plymouth that it would be advisable to make further arrangements looking towards the holding of the proposed corn show at the time of holding the next Marshall county Institute. Your Committee decided as fallows: 1. That a premium be offered for the best twenty ears of corn grown iu Marshall county during the year 1904. That of the amount subscribed and to be subscribed for these premiums 50 per cent, will be paid to the one awarded the first premium and 30 per cent, to the second, aud 20 per cent to the third, less Ihe necessary amount required to pay the expenses of holding the exhibit rent of room aud expenses of corn expert. . 2. That further subscriptions to this county premium be solicited and that those willing to do so are requested to so inform the members ot the Executive Committee Tor each township the amounts they are willing to jive. It is expected and hoped that the Agricultural dealers, merchants and manufacturers will display and advertise the the articles that they propose to contribute as premiums in order that the greatest interest may be taken in the effort to increase the efficiency of Marshall county farmers as corn raisers. That, while no one will be barred from offering premiums after the list is published aud before of holding the exhibit, it is desirable that the list be made as large as possible now so that the largest publicity maybe .given to the. amount and variety of premiums offered. 3. That subscriptions are requested from each township in the county, in order that a first, second and third premium may be offered for the best twenty ears of corn grown in each township during the year 1904, 50 per cent, of the amount subscribed to be glvei to the one awarded the first, 30 per cent to the second and 20 per cent j" n tr utton
