LOCAL CONTEST.
BOYS AND GIRLS
AGRICULTURAL CLUBS

The second local contest of the
Boys and Girls Agricultural Clubs
was held Saturday afternoon at the
High school building. The entire af-
fair gave much pleasure to all at
tending and though the attendance
was not as large as last year it was
doubtless due to the fact that Cony
and Gardiner High were clashing at
Reuel Williams field 1T the time the
meeting was in progress. The adults
were full of praise for the handiwork
Of the members as shown by the re-
markabie display OF the canning
club, for the poultry club, the pig
club, and the garden projects. both
large and small.
The meeting was presided over by
the school principal. Thomas c. Chat
fee, and the speakers were A. L.
Deering, farm agent of kennebec
county, Hon. Charles II. Gray, presi-
dent Of the Gardiner Board of Trade,
and Rev. NJ. G. Folsom. Each of the
contestants read papers telling OF
their experiences in the raising of the
crops or the animals as the case
might be.
The exhibit of the work Of The can
ming club was really remarkable.
when one considered the youth of the
participants and their slight expert
ence. Canned string beans, peas. car
rots, turnips. beets. cucumbefs, corn.
both on and off the cob, dandelion

success crowned the efforts OF this
