OF visitors assembled at the pleasant
home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. j. VIII
loughby last Friday afternoon, for
the June meeting of the North
Owosso Farmers club.
The vice president called the meet

Songs of June" and Rev. Mr..
Young offered prayer. After roll
call and the reading of the minutes
of the last meeting, and reports oil
committees, the election of officers
took place with the following result:
President, w. j. Willoughby,
vice president, Mrs Yale, secretary
and treasurer, u. d. Hurrell, chap
lain, Mrs. Place.
The program next came on for
discussion.
Can Flies About the Farm House
be Diminished by Sanitary Care of
the Stables. Yards and Farm Prem
ises?" Mr.. Smith thinks they can by
absolute cleanliness at the house,
but it is not so easy to keep them
down at the barn, but could help by
keeping pals covered. He says flies
have their good uses also They
jar the air as they fly through the
rooms, eat up particals of food that
would otherwise go to waste.
Mr.. Place has recently visited a
large dairy farm where they keep
one hundred fifty cows, they spray
the COWS with some kind Of disin-
fectant, and don't have as many flies
on the entire herd as we have on one
COW.
Mr.. Yale says microbes gather I'M
der flies wings, and when they get
about so many fall off into what
ever happens to be nearest, the mi
crobes look like cabbage worms UNI
der a microscope magnified a great
many times.
Leland Willoughbay recited "My
Sisters Best Fellow" in his usual
pleasing way.
"The Moral Effect of Steady La
Dor, and no Relaxation" Mr.. Yale
says the meaning of relaxation is
rest. Rev. Mr.. Young says every
one and everything needs rest. The
manufacturers claim that even ma
chinery can do better work after one
days rest than they could if worked
for seven days continuously.
Leland and Eleanor ,Wiloughby
sang Jesus Needs me-" in a very
touching way.
Kitchen Costumes" Mrs. Low
ell finds a one piece suit most con-
venient, have it about three inches
from the floor, or skirt with a big
apron over it for summer, and a
dressing sack under the apron for
winter.
Henry Willoughby next recited
What is Home Without a Daddy"
Stopping Small Leaks on the
Farm" Mr.. Galloway thinks one
leak is not keeping enough stock to
eat up what you raise. He thinks
it poor economy to withhold grain
from cattle because grain is high.
Mr.. Yale thinks one leak is in sell
ing, where the elevator leaks down
below into box and you don't get
pay for all your grain.
Mr. Carson says a man should
know the quality, quantity and
market price of what he offers for
sale, if ne has weighed his grain be-
fore he starts for market. he knows
then right away if there is leak
in the elevator, and it can be looked
into right then, and made right.
Miss Florence Greenwalt recited
one of Mrs. Candles lectures, which
we enjoyed.
A vote of thanks was given the
host and hostess for their hospitality
and after a song We recited the
Lords prayer, and adjourned to par
take of the good things provided for
the inner man.
The next meeting will be held
with Mr.. and Mrs. F. G.. Lowell.
