What power is Elrond referring to? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The members of the Dunedain were watching over all lands. The Rangers of the North would have been responsible for the area that included the Shire. Gandalf doubled the watch on the Shire region as he saw an increased interest from the enemy in that area. Frodo recognized Faramir and gang as "Dunedain of the South" when he met them in the chapter "Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbits".

My point is that Gandalf, in remaining true to his purpose of coming to ME, put together many signs/clues to recognize that Frodo was the ringbearer. More and more signs appeared as the time drew nearer for action. I don't think anyone really predicted that Frodo was the man...they recognized the signs as they came.
