A great building worthy of this, noblest of all occupations will be a visible sign and token to all the world of the intelligent organization and direction of the farmers' forces and, so, powerfully encourage and facilitate that movement.
Such a building, housing permanently, here, representatives of the agricultural interests and preserving and aiding their unity of action will be a powerful force for justice and good government in our public affairs.
I believe that the policy of accepting Liberty bonds as contributions towards its erection will be an aid and encouragement in the successful sale of these bonds.
With kind regards,
Very truly yours,
Miles Poindexter.

Mr. A. A. Elmore,
Chairman, Permanent Committee for Temple of Agriculture,
616 Woodward Building, Washington, D. C.
My Dear Sir: The convention held in Washington by the Federal Board of Farm Organizations this week opens up great possibilities for the American farmer. I am deeply impressed that a committee has been chosen and that plans are under way to establish a Temple of Agriculture, where delegated farm leaders may be able to help.
