What do you mean, "it does not work"?  Are you getting an error message
(please post it!), or does it simply appear that nothing is happening?

Likely nothing is happening --- if c-mode uses the text-mode hook, then
auto-fill-mode is already on, and emacs is likely finding it rather
difficult to turn on what is already on.
