| demonstrations as result Of which
57s.els quarts OF fruit and vegetables were
canned

| problems of The county are studied and
a program of work IS worked out TO take
care Of these problems No one knows
the problems Of county as well "a the
people who live IN IL and the work which
Is done in the county should b. planned
under the direction Of representative
81 Che county.

ing agsncies. II does not take the place
of any other organization but it coor-
dinstes an organizations, This is shown
by the hearty endorsement ana support
