After
the animals took over Manor Farm from Mr. Jones, the word began to spread throughout the
countryside. The animals understood the importance of disseminating the message of their
successful rebellion. They were enthusiastic about their new path of self-determination, the
name change to , and the philosophy of Animalism. Over the first few months of animal rule, the
neighboring farms learn gradually about the rebellion. The human owners of the neighboring farms
also learn of the rebelliondirectly from Mr. Jones. He has complained to anyone who will listen
about the injustices that the animals have perpetrated. His neighbors are somewhat concerned
about the same fate befalling them, but assume they are in total control of their
animals.
As the pigs consolidate their authoritative position, withandruling
jointly, they decide to take control of the information that is being disseminated. The farm has
continued to use the old song Beasts of England as its anthem. The leaders decide that they
should educate animals on nearby farms about Animalism as well as teach them the song, which
will gloriously best represent the ideals and accomplishments of Animal Farm. Pigeons are the
designated messengers; their mission is to get to know the neighbors and educate them.
Every day Snowball and Napoleon sent out flights of pigeons whose
instructions were to mingle with the animals on neighbouring farms, tell them the story of the
Rebellion, and teach them the tune of Beasts of England (Chapter IV).
