The Lincoln birthplace farm came to the attention of RobertCollier, publisher of Collier's magazine, in 1904, whenhe read a newspaper article describing its neglected condition.When the farm was placed at public sale in August1905, Collier sent Richard Lloyd Jones, Collier's editor, topurchased the 110-acre property. In the February 10,1906, issue of Collier's, Jones presented the plans ofthe newly-formed Lincoln Farm Association, whose Boardof Trustees included a number of notable Americans suchas Samuel Gompers, William H. Taft, Samuel Clemens,William Jennings Bryan; James Cardinal Gibbons,Archbishopof Baltimore; Ida Tarbell; and others. With headquartersin New York City, the association proposed to"make of Lincoln's humble birthplace a national shrine,and on the one hundredth anniversary of his birth todedicate it to the American people as the abiding symbolof the opportunity with which democracy endows itsmen." The plans called for acquisition of the original birthcabin, cleaning and protection of the old spring, erectionof a monument to Lincoln, construction of a historicalmuseum, and better maintenance of the farm.
